The 6th of September 2024 saw the completion of the mapping task of East Mayo which is, of course, still awaiting validation.

Project timeline for the East Mayo task

The completion took over four years which sounds disappointing, but if you look closely at the timeline, you will see that nothing happened between November of 2021 and March of 2024 which is when the task was parked and not accessible to be worked on. Since March of this year, it was more or less steadily worked on.

12 mappers had worked on the task (in order of numbers of tasks mapped): b-unicycling (1698), jonako (17), OscarBrownbread (17), jonnymccullagh (16), kschust, IpswichEdits, liamoconnor03, DeBigC, Adam Hegarty, Vincent de Phily, Cristoffs, aquamarine1.

The validators so far were b-unicycling (72), jonnymccullagh (26), jonako (4), Vincent de Phily (2) and IpswichEdits (1). Big thanks to all these contributors so far!

1 All of Mayo was analyzed on ohsome, because it’s just easier creating the table that way, but of course, the coastline was mapped as part of the Wild Atlantic Way task during that period as well.

The statistics show that we are not just focusing on urban centres and future car use of the maps, but that rural mapping and mapping for pedestrians are equally important. And heritage. 😉

Thank you again to all the contributors and happy validating!
