Adventure Time on CWTS++

Posted by HXD70 on 24 October 2018 in English.

The edits I’ve made in my neighborhood are made possible through the use of josm, mapillary, and a field paper. Gathering information, such as house numbers are quite challenging since some are not easily seen while roaming around the street. Capturing and uploading street level imagery, is easier said than done since it takes more time to do this, rather than mapping. I’ve added buildings since there are still some unmapped buildings.

For me, the CWTS++ program is an adventure. I got to interact with other people, roam the streets in my neighborhood, and learn new set of skills. It isn’t easy to go on an adventure. Just like any other adventure, transitioning from one thing to another isn’t always easy. From using I.D. to JOSM, at first I had a hard time using it, to be honest. But as time got by, I got used to it and eventually I saw that it was better than using I.D. since it made editing much easier. What I liked the most during this program is capturing street level imagery since this is where I personally got to have an adventure. Roaming the streets and seeing my neighborhood made me want to explore more about it. Lastly, an adventure wouldn’t be made possible without a guide. Sir Erwin Olario taught us what we needed to know about mapping and showed us the importance of helping our community. Thank you Sir Erwin!
