Is there a map which contains the borders of the cities what we have to drive/walk/etc? A lot of cities are having suburbs which are old villages but are nowadays added to the cities.

Hello @asturksever,

What admin level are we talking for these ‘cities’ more specifically Lisbon.
Municipality of Lisbon or District of Lisbon ? Would be nice to have an overview of shape boundaries for the contest to make it clear

Thank you …

What’s the username of your friend?

Oh nice ! I had no idea how much I had been mapping since 15 June. It’s been horribly hot in Brussels this week so a bit less mapping recently but I’ll start again once the temperature drops below 30°C.

Couldn’t refuse such a challenge :wink:

Nice table. :+1: However, an interesting metric that you could add would be images per kilometer. For example, the current leader has just ≈ 64.256 ipkm (or one image every 15.563 meters), which considering all things is very sparse for an urban environment. Imho ipkm should be a leveling factor among participants. :wink:

That’s one 360° image every 2 seconds while cycling at 20km/h. I could shoot videos and get many more pics of poor quality but they wouldn’t add much value.
