Sunset Sakura (:osm: Nelson)Two weeks ago a new building construction was completed, and now is updated on OpenStreetMap. Google Maps' buildings are still very inaccurate and don't show the change except for the relocation of Westpac.<a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/-41.272268/173.283551" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/-41.272268/173.283551</a><a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OpenStreetMap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenStreetMap</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OSMNelson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OSMNelson</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/Whakat%C5%ABNelson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WhakatūNelson</a>

Sunset Sakura (:osm: Nelson)I noticed a new area when I went out to Atawhai a few days ago, took some photos of it and have now mapped it on OpenStreetMap!<a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/-41.236589/173.316709" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/-41.236589/173.316709</a><a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OpenStreetMap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenStreetMap</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OSMNelson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OSMNelson</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/Whakat%C5%ABNelson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WhakatūNelson</a>

Sunset Sakura (:osm: Nelson)Finally micromapped Queen's Gardens in <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OSMNelson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OSMNelson</a>. I collected gps track with my phone and <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OSMTracker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OSMTracker</a> which informed me what paths exist, but it was very inaccurate so I didn't trace it. Also made the fountain circle properly <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/MicroMapped" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MicroMapped</a> because it'll be beautiful :osm_intensifies:.If you're ever in <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/Nelson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Nelson</a>, be sure to visit Queen's gardens! <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/Whakat%C5%ABNelson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WhakatūNelson</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OpenStreetMap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenStreetMap</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OSM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OSM</a>

Sunset Sakura (:osm: Nelson)So in order to prove a point about <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/Whakat%C5%ABNelson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WhakatūNelson</a> being too car-centric, I'm gonna make sure most of the surface level parking - street-side, lot and private - is mapped in <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OSMNelson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OSMNelson</a> to accurately illustrate "heres a building, and here's the same size of land as car parking for that building". <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OpenStreetMap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenStreetMap</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/CarDependency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CarDependency</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/Aotearoa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Aotearoa</a>

Sunset Sakura (:osm: Nelson)Mapping the pedestrian areas and footpaths (sidewalks in osm) in <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/Whakat%C5%ABNelson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WhakatūNelson</a> is very fun, I'm definitely upskilling my mapping! By the way, I'm following <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OpenSidewalks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenSidewalks</a> schema because it seems the best for people with disabilities and people who use wheelchairs or baby prams. Doing centre Nelson City first, then will continue expanding outwards. Another local mapper is beginning around Tāhunanui as well. <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OpenStreetMap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenStreetMap</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OSMNelson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OSMNelson</a>
