True, sorry. I just looked at the site on my mobile. Also no luck on eBay for me... If my memory serves me good, then a https://www.amazon.com/i-gotU-GT-120-Travel-Logger-Software/... should also do the trick.

What a blast for the past! I still have a functioning Wintec GPS tracker which I bought in 2007. One battery lasts for some days, I have multiple batteries… It’s barely larger than a pack of matches. Currently they sell This model here h

Mapping can be very opinionated, but sending angry private messages to people genuinely trying to make the map better is definitely not necessary.

Every item on OSM (node, way, relation) is versioned and has a history. If you can link us to your changes I’m happy to try to help find out why your change was reverted. Usually that’s only the case for blatant errors, copying from proprie

EverDoor uses https://github.com/openstreetmap/id-tagging-schema to facilitate mapping, meaning some suitable tags to the main tag are automatically suggested.

What is 'good' tomography? High resolution, fast scanning or only imaging a certain kind of samples? I presume you're not scanning biological material with such a high acceleration voltage, so I'd look into NDT systems f

They don't mention anything on their website, but I guess - from looking at their machine - that they use an x-ray source which goes to the range of 150kV, since they also show larger items with more metal volume being scanned. *source
