Mapping around my neighborhood is a breeze because I know my neighborhood very well. The only problem I encountered was the people around me while I was mapping my neighborhood using my phone, mapping using field papers and mapping on the internet. I was anxious while mapping with mappillary because it uses my phone and it is very vulnerable to be stolen and it would be much easier if the app will cooperate with you(it always shows you no location -_-). When I was mapping using field papers it is one of the most difficult form of mapping because it is tough to be walking or cycling around because you’ll be drenched in sunlight; the weather is also unpredictable so it might rain and get your field papers soaking wet. Mapping on the desktop is not as hard if your desktop is as fast as a gaming pc, I was having such a hard time mapping on my laptop because it’s sluggish and had a hard time installing JOSM. Despite all of this I made it through, it was a fun experience and the thought of me helping someone for doing all of this work is great; you can be a hero in any way you want to. It also made me think on how this program might have changed me, it has lessen my shyness, it increased my confidence, heightened my social skills and helped me to become a better person.

This is my 2nd time mapping on a bike. The first time I mapped was using the field papers, it was a bit of a challenge because I was writing only on a bondpaper which is very hard to write on because I don’t have any platform to write on. The 2nd time I was mapping using mapillary, it was more challenging because I have to hold my phone while riding on my bike which is dangerous.Though it was a very fun experience. I was shocked that I don’t know that their are places in my community that I still don’t know like the very unusual setting of a religious area “HAIL KING JESUS” that I have seen the placement of the fellowship is hidden. Another place or building I have seen is a very high and very thin looking house/office of a lawyer in our neighborhood. I think that’s all of my experiece and discoveries for this mapping session and I find it much more fun than mapping on the computer because not only I exercise my body I also help my neighborhood in the same time having fun.
