BG24 - Canlego?
 | Physical geography |
|---|---|
| An overview of climate, topography and landscape of the country. With the exception of Beginner territories, you should always create a sketch map to illustrate & explain your plans. You can add a link to this (hosted on imgBB, Postimages or similar, but not imgur.com) |
- generally a colder climate (20°C in the summer and 0°C in the winter)
- some mountains but not that relevant
- a few major cities
 | Human geography |
|---|---|
| A brief description of the territory demographics, economic development, land occupation, infrastructure and mapping style |
Not widely structured as I just want to further develop my mapping skills.
 | History & culture |
|---|---|
| A brief description of the intended culture and language |
I imagine as this is a beginner territory this is less relevant.
 | Past mapping |
|---|---|
| To support your request provide links to areas of OGF mapping which showcase your mapping skill. Mapping relevant to the requested theme & geography is especially useful. | |
| The {{coord}}, {{node}}, {{relation}} or {{scalehelper}} templates can optionally be used to link to the OGF map - they result in nicely formatted links. Or you can paste in a URL. |
After my very first mapping in the Beginners Territory, I moved on to micromap a bit in Seagull City. https://www.opengeofiction.net/#map=18/-11.25724/170.86889&layers=B There I mapped two neighborhoods with parks, buildings, and the naming of some streets.
Next, I mapped a regional railway from Trent/Seagull City down to Port Halverside.
To learn JOSM and move on from only city mapping I searched for a nice spot an started the village Rotary, which I later turned into a holiday resort village where I currently map the surroundings: https://www.opengeofiction.net/edit#map=18/-11.86248/170.58919

Territory application approved |

| Approved. Remember that beginner territories are for building up mapping experience, not for long term mapping. Thanks/wangi (talk) 11:20, 12 September 2023 (UTC) | |
| As you develop your territory, be sure to keep it realistic. Here are some resources you may find useful for starting out: Help:Portal, Help:Making realistic countries, Help:Making realistic cities and OpenGeofiction:Site policies |
