[edit] Stages of the Project
The Project will consist of 3 Stages. So far, the Project is in its first stage.
1. Mapping Stage: In this stage, the participants will map out and draw all visible roads in the country, as long as satellite imaging makes the drawing possible. Once this is done, the second stage can be executed.
2. Description Stage: In this stage, the participants will name, describe, and add photos of all roads that have been drawn and mapped if possible. This can be done parallel to the third stage.
3. Maintenance Stage: In this stage, the participants will maintain the mapped roads, to realign them at the event of a satellite update, to undo vandalism, and to protect the descriptions from being vandalized.
