How it works

The tool we have here is an attempt to make community mapping tool that is quite simple to use... if it isn't, please tell us how you would like it improved! We use a simple form based approach with a geolocation map (with the map open, you can pan, zoom, use sat view, and click on your location and save). The pre-configured fields are an attempt to provide some consistancy to the listings. It is possible for us to add or remove or even reorder these to make it more useful... your feedback is welcomed! When adding a listing, good information will make it invaluable, so make sure you use good descriptive tags, locations and other information... have a small photo available too. Probably, the best thing is to have a look at one or two listings and see what is possible, and have a look at the input form to see how it can be done. There is a search form to accompany this tool. It is another form based approach, utilising a series of tick/check boxes to filter down to what you are looking for... if you are too specific, you may not find what you are looking for! On the searching issue, if a listing has not got good information, especially the descriptive tags, location etc, it may be difficult for others to find... If you find a listing, and feel that is could be improved in some way, you can leave a comment on that listing, your could also contact the person who listed it to get the imformation added, modified or changed... making another listing though would not be useful, as it creates ambiguity and confusion for those searching. If you really like the listing, then you can "recommend" it to others using the button... nice! In order to add listings, you will have to register on the site. In order to Register, you will have to supply the Site Password which = TBG
