There was agreement among the mappers of Birmingham in November to complete inside the motorways before Christmas, it was a mammoth task, but OpenStreetMap now has a complete map for the Birmingham area! This is thanks to the hard work of multiple mappers in the Birmingham area, but most of all to Andy Robinson, BrianBoru and Xoff. These 3 guys between themselves mapped more than 75% of Birmingham. My own efforts only managed to contribute about 1.3%!

The announcement by Andy can be found here.

This is not to say there is anything left to do, as there are plenty of things to add to the map. I for one am going to keep adding data.

The next step is to get this data into the hands of people who can use it. Please send in suggestions, or edit the Mappa Mercia page on the OSM wiki to include anything you think is useful.
