As someone who now only visits the West Midlands irregularly, you don't just need to track where still needs to be surveyed. You need a way of tracking when an area was last surveyed too. I now live in Clacton, a small Essex town, where there seems to be a high rate of change of what shops there are. I mapped most of the shops a few months ago and am aware a few need updating already (I spot them when driving and can't make notes; when I was last walking through the town I took a photo of a pie shop I'd never seen before to update when I got home - and haven't yet). Certain takeaways also seem prone to change their name at intervals. As you can tell, I don't have a systematic way of tracking these things, but the area I'm concerned about probably has many fewer shops than Birmingham.
