This achievement may be claimed when you contribute one or more new geographical features worth adding to OpenStreetMap. You can claim this achievement even if the expedition was unsuccessful, especially if the map features you add explain your failure.

The feature(s) must be at least partially in sight of the hashpoint (i.e., the entire lake or airstrip does not need to be visible).

Proof

Describe the feature/s you added and give a link to the OSM coordinates. If appropriate, include a screen shot of the OSM feature/s.

Background

Like Geotrashing, adding to OpenStreetMap is a public spirited thing to do but perhaps more lasting.

Perhaps we can encourage OSM editors to take up geohashing. The two activities fit well together. Visit a random place and if it's interesting, put it on the map.
