World of O Maps: Open for additions

It is now possible to add/change map information in World of O Maps, but currently with some limitations in functionality. The two most important limitations is that new maps may not be added for countries which already have a full o-map database (Switzerland, Norway, Austria, Slovakia, Slovenia, Great Britain and Estonia) – however changes and additions of map images, terrain descriptions etc. may be made for maps from these countries as well. In addition, currently new maps can only be represented by a point, and not by their outline.

Notes:

• This is a beta version: The addition of maps is not fully testet – can there therefore can (and will be) some problems, I guess. Please report any problems you find, and I will work hard to fix them.
• It is currently only possible to give map position using a single point. Later it will be possible to draw the outline of the map.
• Ordering of maps is not yet made public, as some issues must be solved regarding protection of email addresses and avoiding spam. These issues are however close to be solved.
• Changes for countries which have an official map register will be made available to the federations. If they choose to not apply these changes, it will decided how to proceed with the information.

• Remember that you are responsible for copyright for all material which is uploaded and/or linked to in the map register.
• Note that no maps are public available before checked by webmaster. This can take from a few hours up to 14 days (usually within 24 hours).
• Addition of new maps for countries which already have a o-map database will be included for some countries later on, but coordination of this work must be done with the local federations before such possibilities are included.

As always: Any comments are appreciated! Use anonymous comments below if you don’t want your name public, or send me an e-mail.
