Hello all,

To anyone who joined since there was last any traffic on this list (!) and anyone else, just thought I'd drop a note to let you know about a new addition to the Oxford Guide (although it has been there in a similar form for a while).

Most of you will hopefully be aware that OpenGuides will automatically produce a Google Maps map of the node, on node pages, if there is geographical information available, and additionally that you can plot all the (geo-enabled) nodes on a map at

http://oxford.openguides.org/wiki/?action=index;format=map

This used to just be Google maps, but now the default view is from http://www.openstreetmap.org/ which has fairly good coverage of Oxford (thanks to a handful of us who have been surveying over the past two years).

I'm pleased to be able to offer this as a demonstration of the mapping data that it's possible to generate with a bit of community effort.

Anyone who's lurking on here, do say hello - it's good to hear from our contributors!

Cheers,

Dominic.
