Hi all,
I just start mapping in Ireland...
Are there any sources available that we can use to mark the townland
borders? Or are you looking for land marks?
regards,
Constanze

Hi all,
As you know, we have a nice site for display the currently mapped
townlands ( http://www.celtic-knot-creator.com/townland/ ). It's my
website and I maintain it. It's updated every day (at about 6am). Based
on a suggestion, I just added a new feature to keep track of the
coverage percent each day, and predict how long it'll take to finish
mapping the townlands:

Since yesterday we covered 0.04% more of the island of Ireland with
townlands, that means it'll take about 6 years to finish. :) We'd better
get mapping!
I've also broken it down by county. You may see some crazy high numbers
(like it taking 400,000,000 years to finish Sligo), that's because only
a teeeny tiny amount was added in that period.
It currently just compares the change since the previous day, and when I
started recording (26th Feb 2014), and calculates a "improvement per
day". Once we have enough data, I'll make it look at the previous week,
month and year to make predictions.
If anyone would like any special features for that townland site, just
let me know, and I'll see about adding it. The source code for that is
open source and available here:
https://github.com/rory/osm-irish-townlands/
This "predicated rate" is mostly just for fun, and hopeful something to
motivate us to finish it. Just add some townlands to make the numbers go
down!
