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
Dear Snorre,
The original provincial boundaries were based on Namria's 1:250K
topographic maps this is very coarse and useful only to provide an
overview of the province. At larger scales (or higher zoom levels in
webmapping parlance), this is very inaccurate.
There is also a free dataset of
Nice! That's a very good tip. Thanks Jim

Hi guys,
I have created a public spreadsheet for the WLM sites:

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,

press permalink, then cut paste the lat long info into the
GoogleDocs spreadsheet. The GoogleMap OSM links are auto-generated.
Coolness :-)
