Ok. Round four for the annual Swiss Orienteering Mappers Beginner training in #Sursee.
My room got upgraded this year, such as I got this direct view on the training area (Haselwarten Wald).
Rare occasion for mapping from bed.😎🤣

I am preparing a training for new orienteering mappers to be held next weekend. Reluctant to the AI I am I could not help to generate this picture to depict the relationship between new mappers and the ISOM (International Specification for Orienteering Maps). I will introduce the later as the product of a slightly disappointed father who was hoping he could prevent his kids from making the same mistakes he did in his own mappers youth. :-P

Last autumn, we invited our top mappers to spend a single day mapping a small forest near Sursee (LU), Switzerland. The forest is a typical Mittelland example—nothing spectacular, but full of the usual challenges around generalisation (point features) and vegetation classification.

Now at the Annual Swiss Orienteering Convention in Olten, Mark Gloor presented the results of this experiment.
