Today, I added many details west of the city centre of Tarott (capital of the Republic of Kalm). Actually, I copied the whole city of Tarott from a vector file - and now I have to correct many things. E.g., in the vector file the ends of the streets were not connected as they have to be in OGF. And there was no possibility to add the labels automatically, as they were drawn as separate objects in the original file. Wow, that’s a hard work, adding al the labels, connecting the endpoints and so on. But step by step, the map will be completed.

Those fortifications and surrounding areas look really nice, congratulations!
I myself i’m trying to find a way to translate data from the program i use profesionally (MicroStation) to JOSM. The translation (with FME) itself is not so much a problem, it even strokes an arc to a linestring while keeping the ends connected. But keeping the right proportions and getting things in the right area is. With the right projections it should work. And for the moment it’s not a big issue for me as i’m still working on a larger scale in Neberly, instead of placing living streets and buildings.

Succes! Two buildings i created in MicroStation are succesfully transformed to JOSM and uploaded to OpenGeofiction. They can be found in the center of Senford: a castle and cathedral. I have to say this was just a test and therefore these buildings will be replaced by others eventually.

Looks really nice! Looking forward to see more details appear in your country. What you added so far seems very promising to me.
