The Northeast Kildare task had been reopened on September 9th 2024, and the mapping process was completed (apart from re-mapping after invalidation) on October 24th 2024. Six mappers worked on the task (b-unicycling, jmkie, DeBigC, Ivandor, IpswichEdits & peterm7), and so far, one person (craghead) has started the validation process. Read more…
The Carlow County task had been one of the first to be finished since the start of the OSMIrl_buildings project started, finished in May of 2020, to be precise. Naturally, that mapping data had become somewhat out of date, so I decided to open a task for just the town Read more…
The 6th of September 2024 saw the completion of the mapping task of East Mayo which is, of course, still awaiting validation. 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 Read more…
There have been attempts to map the buildings in the very large county of Cork for a while; parts were covered by the WildAtlanticWay efforts, and other tasks for Cork had been created. This one focused on the area roughly between Macroom and Cork (leaving out Cork city), because it Read more…
Portlaoise is one of the or even the fastest growing town in Ireland, and we have to try to keep up with its growth on the map. Therefore, a task was created on January 4th 2024 to map the missing buildings and highways. Sadly, there was only one mapper (myself) Read more…
As task no. 100, I created one for County Monaghan after a certain person complained that it had been neglected so far. It was created as a private task that only team members could work on (whoever “the team” is), because I wanted to look for unrecorded archaeological sites and Read more…

The Drogheda task was finished on November 6th 2023, but is still awaiting some validation (EDIT 2023-12-16: All done now.). The task comprised of Drogheda town and rural areas to the north of the town. It had, once again, been one of those tasks that had been parked in 2020 Read more…
The Bray task (#13) was one of the many tasks started in 2019, but parked in 2020, because too many unfinished tasks seemed too daunting. It was finished on November 9th within very few days of being re-activated. B-unicycling decided to validate previously mapped tasks from 3-4 years ago first, Read more…
5:58pm on October 30th 2023, b-unicycling declared the mapping of Co. Meath in the TaskManager as “finished”. Of course that only means that the tiles had reached the status of “mapped”, a lot of validation is still required. The task had been re-entered into the task manager early in June Read more…
The Longford town task had been created in 2020, but was then “parked”, because the large choice of tasks hindered the completion of any of them. It was revived after the completion of the Roscommon task and finished within less than a week. The best quality imagery was Esri Clarity Read more…
