Unsurprisingly, 3 are using OpenStreetMap data.

This also means you can correct and add paths yourself if you ever notice some are wrong or missing.

\#OpenStreetMap Belgium’s Mapper of the Month #MotM is @joost\_schouppe.

Interesting paper from #MDPI about “Mapping with #ChatGPT” concludes it delivers unique advantages, such as: \- lowering the barrier to producing maps \- boosting the efficiency of massive map production \- and understanding geographical space with its spatial thinking capability.

Limitations cited are: \- its unequal benefits for different users (need to have some expertise already) \- and necessary user intervention for quality control.

  • @CjkOvPDwQW In short, it’s not correct, because the node is not associated to the way that is controlled. See “How to map on the wiki”: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway=speed%20camera?uselang=en. The simple method is a node part of the way (to represent the existence of a control at that place). The more advanced is an isolated node (for the physical location of the camera) but make it part of a three-node relation to represent the direction of the control and link it to the way.
