Lots of cities in the Philippines need their own mapping parties. Even Cebu
City is sorely lacking in map data. That's why we need to spread the word
about OSM so that local people can take charge of adding and updating their
area. :-)

You can start by adding more details to Vigan when you go there.

If you want, we can also have another skillshare session so that you can
learn how to edit more advanced data. :-)

 hi all!

 i'm doing a trip pre-planning to Sta. Cruz, Ilocos Sur with a
 highly-probable side-trip to Vigan and noticed OSM needs some sort of
 a Vigan mapping party. the tourist place needs lots of mapping works
 to do; I expected the  opposite though. I remember the calesa route
 merely circled the city's main streets but it's not yet there on the
 map.

Hi Eugene,

that skillshare may have to wait for now as i'm fully-booked, can't
even join the cavite mapping party :(

at least my hometown's almost finished and will try to map other
nearby Laguna towns

i'll probably go around Vigan to put the major roads and attractions
on the map.

thanks
