[edit] Usage
Articles that already have a map derived from OpenStreetMap data are in Category:OpenStreetMap maps.
[edit] Wanted
If you want a map for a particular article, and don't know how to or don't want to create it yourself, then add it to this list. With luck, someone will notice and make a map for you sooner or later.
[edit] In progress
Maps for the following articles are being worked on by someone. If you want to help them contact them via their talk page:
[edit] HowTo
- Skinny: get GPS tracks for the area, upload to OSM, markup and tag as required, render as SVG with Osmarender, convert SVG to PNG, upload to Wiki commons, use.
[edit] Templates
- Template:OpenStreetMapThumb - Use this template on an article page to include a thumbnail of an OpenStreetMap image.
- Template:Openstreetmap - Use this template on an image page to indicate that it was created from OpenStreetMap data.
- Template:OpenStreetMapImage - Use this template on an image page when there is a corresponding page on the OpenStreetMap wiki.
- /mappingParty - Use this template on the talk page of any article that will be visited by an OpenStreetMap mapping party.
