I am currently undertaking a mapping project for the Open Streetmap project.

Cloudmade who do a great deal of work with the OSM community have given me a grant to get a GPS set for this purpose.

The device has been shipped off to Shetland where it is being driven around by a friend of mine. I received the first batch of data a few days ago, and save for a few small issues, the data is good, clean and ready for proper processing.

On completion this project will allow the addition of very accurate mapping of central Shetland in OSM maps.

The question remains — If you identify something as a UFO, it ceases to be unidentified — right?

Therefore it isn’t a UFO — right?

Therefore UFOs cannot exist
