Showoff Sunday - screenshot your cool mapping project

Did you recently (or not recently) map a cool area that you want to show? Something you are proud of? Post it here! A little explanation of why it is cool might help as well.

This is a small city in Belgium. The fortifications are a Vauban Fortress; but most parts of those medieval fortifications are now nature reserve (and protected as heritage). Some parts are open water, others are swamps.

However, most of the north-eastern side of the fortress was mapped as "forest" or something generic. After visiting it, I started micromapping this bit by bit. Upon saving and refreshing, the underlying structure of the fortress was suddenly visible, which was a nice surprise!

Hi Pieter, do you have a screenshot of this?
Or a pointer into OSM?

I only see the text, no image 😞

@marco @pietervdvn@lemmy.ml Hi Marco,

That is because you are looking to a lemmy post from Mastodon. Seems like the images don't come through properly. Visit https://lemmy.ml/post/1852015 and you'll see the picture.

This is what I am proud of. I didn't map the original outline of the building, but I did the different building parts including heights for 3D view, entrances, the tunnel through the building and the courtyard.

Might need fixing though. In 3D view there are 2 buildings on top of each other. The stuff that I did, and then the basic structure. So I guess the other thing would need to be deleted?
