<div style="margin-bottom: 0.5em">via <a href="http://slashgeo.org" class="f">Slashgeo.org</a> by Satri on 1/8/13</div><br style="display:none">
<p>Every frequent Slashgeo reader knows about OpenStreetMap, and now, the project reached another important milestone: <a href="http://opengeodata.org/1-million-openstreetmappers">1 million OpenStreetMappers.</a></p>
<p>From the blog entry: <em>"OpenStreetMap has just passed 1 million users! That's a million people who have <a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/new" title="New user sign up page">signed up on openstreetmap.org</a> to join in with creating a free map of the world. At first glance you may think that OpenStreetMap is a map. Those who know more will tell you that it's actually a database; a flexible editable repository of free geospatial data. But above all OpenStreetMap is a community. A massive community in which people like you and me come together collaborate and help build this thing... and now there's a million of us!"</em></p>
<p>To ease contributions even more, they also <a href="http://opengeodata.org/introducing-openstreetmaps-javascript-editor">introduced the alpha version of the new OpenStreetMap editor, codenamed iD</a> (screenshot below). And for its beauty, see the <a href="http://vimeo.com/56374742">short animation on OpenStreetMap: A Year of Edits 2012</a>.</p>
