  • The numbers are NOT corresponding with the correct dates
  • You should check the route and this Route spreadsheet (hosted at google)
  • That spreadsheet works as legend for the draft maps, concerning km's and dates

Participation

The idea is to make the route decision a collaborative process, so making sure
that everyone understands and visualizes all the places is a key factor.

Here it's described how to see the map so far and contribute on it

Basically it can be done by associating tags with coordinates on a map. This is a very cool service provided by Tagzania

So far the map looks like this (at the web service page)

but let's show how it can be done , just seeing the maps

• Let's start with a simple point:
  • In each item (position) you have it's own page, with much information, like about the nearest points, tags, and other users
  • and links for seeing that same point "drawn" on other maps or even in 3d
  • For example: the start place at Barcelona own page is like this

• Because we added tags to his point we can opt to see also all the other points with the same tag
  • For example: all points with the tag Spain

• Then we can merge tags
  • For example: the places of BT07 AND Spain : this

• Then you can view all the results on 3d
  • with GoogleEarth by clicking the orange kml button

To participate and add points:

• You should register
  • by going here

• Then you can always add a point in the maps of already existing points

• you can search for place names in different ways
  • in the same website, top right
  • at http://www.geonames.org
  • here http://nona.net/features/map/
  • or here in a roadmap service http://www.multimap.com
    • on the last 3, cause you are out of tagzania, you'll need a "trick" for adding the points

• then you should fill the fields with something like:
  • Title: name of the place
  • Description: when (date) and others important info
  • Tags (separated: it's important that we use the same, as it will be the "binding" factor, so:
    • Ecotopia Biketour 2007 BT07 - they're a must
    • country as in:Spain
    • month as in:June
    • other relevant factors like: MainPlaces , sleep , restday

• after adding the point it will be automatically available on all the maps that use one or more tags like the ones you picked
