Hi Ed,
The problem with this is that not all of the sites are in OSM and if
the only source of the location of a site is from Google Maps,
Panoramio, Wikimapia, etc. then we cannot legally add the location
into OSM and so there is no ncca tag or similar to collect.

Hi Rally,
Earlier I've actually thought of a better way than the spreadsheet to
populate the WLM geo-database: create a web map application, where you
can simply drag and drop a marker over the location of a site. But
since creating such an app takes time, this Google Docs spreadsheet is
a
Hi Eugene,
Usually, at WaypointsDotPH, we get the coordinates and photos from
contributors who have been to the POIs. I was thinking, that if this will
be a photo contest, then photographers of uncharted monuments might keep
the location information while the contest is going on so others may

Anyway, I have been locating many of these sites lately by using combined
panoramio, google earth, wikimapia. Latest ones are some POIs in Cagayan
Valley. Most often, I see some of these monuments tagged in panoramio photos
that are
Nice! That's a very good tip. Thanks Jim

Hi guys,
I have created a public spreadsheet for the WLM sites:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AtokxpcNebAxdGJSMFRqX3F5Q3pZd2JpTGxJYThlOGc
It seems crowdsourcing this task is the way to go and using the usual
geo-research methodologies (OSM, Google, Panoramio, Wikimapia,
By the way, as a test, I've started adding some coordinates obtained
from OSM. Check out some of the sites in Baguio and Ilocos Norte in
the list.

Guys,
My two centavos worth ...
would it not be easier if we just place a special tag on such POIs on OSM
(maybe NCCA=yes or some other tag) then harvest them all via OSMosis
later? That way, it eliminates transcribing errors.

I've tried editing just now and it looks like GoogleDoc approach is
better, considering that any newbie can point-and-click on either OSM
or Google Map,
press permalink, then cut paste the lat long info into the
GoogleDocs spreadsheet. The GoogleMap OSM links are auto-generated.
Coolness :-)
I can try to tag each one of them
i can see churches of bohol plus other structures i've recently visited
there including Clarin House
in Loay town (i also attempted to visit Loay watchtower but it was covered
by mangroves and not really easy to access, in state of ruins, ias was told
by locals).
