Hi Michael, that sounds great! I’m based in Chiang Mai, though I’m more into off-road motorcycling than hiking. I’ve been improving and maintaining OpenStreetMap in Chiang Mai for the past four years and regularly contribute to mapping tools and wikis for Thailand and beyond.  

You might find this hiking guide helpful for mapping in Thailand—it includes useful links to local hiking and OpenStreetMap communities:  
[WikiProject Thailand/Hiking Guide](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Thailand/Hiking_Guide)  

Visual examples will be added in the near future.  
Happy hiking and mapping!
