Hi everyone! I found it weird that there were no pages for UK created so here it is! Anyone in London to talk to?! ---

I occasionally pop down to London, used to live there. I’m based up in Ipswich up in Suffolk. ---

G’day UK! I wanted to bring your attention to an awesome initiative set up by Rob Nickerson. OSM UK members now have access an LG 360 which they are able to rent for a very small fee that helps cover the cost of the program. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/mapillary/original/2X/d/df0f1d47bfa565cf2dc37c1b7119383ed414c42f.jpg) [Read more about it here](https://osmuk.org/360-degree-camera-rental/) ---

Hi all I’m a fairly new user of Mapillary and I’m based in Warwickshire. Are there any Mapillary users out there that’s also based close to where I am? ---

That’s good to know. 🙂 Just checked out your tracks on Mapillary. I noticed they’re mainly walking tracks in very interesting parts of the country. Can I ask what phone/action cam do you use and how you mount in on your body or was it hand-held? All my images so far have been captured while driving and I want to start capturing walking/hiking routes. I have a Yi action cam with a clip that I can attach to the strap of my shoulder bag, allowing my hands free and less intrusive than if I have a camera/phone on a stick hand-held. ---

Thanks! I tend to capture in one of two ways. Either holding my iPhone 6s in my right hand, or with a monopod when using my 360° camera. The monopod rig is with the misphere camera at the top, then I have a clamp and a phone holder attached halfway down the monopod, with my phone in it. I carry the monopod, with the phone about face height. I mostly do this as the phone gives much higher detail than the 360. It also has better GPS that I scrape from the photos and then use for the 360° images after they’re stitched. I’m looking to make it a bit more hands free, but the gyro in the 360 can be overly sensitive, and I can’t be bothered with adjusting the horizon on hundred or thousands of photos. ---

I’m in West Yorkshire, anyone in my area? ---

judging by motorway coverage, people don’t tend to capture much around them/in urban areas. I guess it is car-based street level imagery after all. London coverage is a good example of the main streets covered, and the rest left to Bing
