[Geowanking] homemade maps using GPS

[Joshua Schachter]

I've known about GPSdrawing for a while, but I had only mostly seen more
whimsical drawings. Someone made a nice map of part of Detroit:

(Does anyone know if there are lots of skyscrapers in that area? There's
no markers or anything so I can't tell. I've wanted to do something
similar for NYC but I've been under the impression that GPS doesn't work
very well in these urban canyons.)

These do of course bring to mind the collaborative maps of Amsterdam from:

Here's another map people made of where they went to lunch for a year:
