OSMTime – Mapping lanes in OSM

Our next meetup will focus on improving the OpenStreetMap by editing lane and turn lane features.

In the context of traffic control, a lane is part of a roadway (carriageway (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carriageway)) that is designated for use by a single line of vehicles, to control and guide drivers and reduce traffic conflicts.

Rat Dioszegi Lorand will be our guest speaker for the evening – he will talk about how to edit lane and turn lane features in OpenStreetMap.

Requirements:

· As the event will be focused on editing, please bring a laptop and charger

· (optional) JOSM installed on your laptop
