by wonderfullyrich I’ve got two new pages that I just put up, they are my place for Open Street Maps and the Garmin image file that I compiled that works on many Garmin handheld GPS devices. Open Street Maps tells the story of why I’ve spent some time on this. The image file contains a fair amount of the street data in Eastern Africa, which doesn’t really exist anywhere else. It’s all user input and based on GPS traces and Satellite Imaging. I’ve been improving the Kampala street naming and will be doing some more traces this weekend during my weekend trip to Bujumbura. (16 hour bus ride… uggh!) More later perhaps.
Burn me, baby!

Rich’s Facebook Status- Richard "we need equipment, we need to increase the soldiers pay from the current $750 per month to the $1800 like the UN" The average pay in Uganda for a clerk, police officer, or bus driver is $100-200 USD per month. Who would actually get that increase of salary? Makes me wonder if it isn't a good idea for someone to compare the financial payments from the us government to uganda's posted reciepts.
