The Riverside Estate was missing all buildings and addresses. Roads haven’t been refined for over five years.

I’ve spent 3 days of my holiday to improve the estate’s mapping.

Done

• Update St James’ School buildings, roads, and tags
• Review Estate Roads
• Build Telephone Exchange area
• Build Cranmere Court care home building, car park, paths, green space, and fences
• Add house buildings, tagging apartments and bungalows when necessary
• Add garage areas and alleys
• Add Substations
• Review green spaces
• Add turn-around spaces at dead ends when necessary
• Add full addresses for all buildings
• Review surrounding land use tags
• Review and add footpaths

Todo

• Add house boundary fences
• Review surrounding common green spaces
• Review residential area boundary
• Review School land boundary

Greetings people,

I'm a college student in Colchester, Essex. I found this site on TechCrunch and I'm very eager to map what I can.

I've just done the majority of my estate and quite enjoyed it so I'm sure to be doing alot more.

I love all freedom of speech projects but especially this one since I can really contribute (willingly) and sometime in the future use the data somehow.

Anyway, just saying what I have to say.
(And here comes the inevitable cheesy newbie finishing line)

Happy Mapping,
James Pain
