A. We talked about the minimum acreage required for a map. We didn't come up with a specific number, but it would depend on usage (local meet vs. A-meet). B. We continued to work through the map inventory spreadsheet from 1/31/2008, making updates to map details and adjustments to prioritizations. Many of our maps need Project Managers to determine ownership / access, evaluate suitability of the terrain, identify data sources, etc. Some proposed map areas will stay a low priority until we have a Project Manager for the map. C. Our base mapper, Ivar Helgesen, retired in 2011/2012. Do we have any alternatives, other than obtaining existing LiDAR data or flying a custom LiDAR survey? (See discussion here: http://www.attackpoint.org/discussionthread.jsp/message_791783 ) We can use high-resolution aerial photos for vegetation boundaries, streams, roads, trails, etc., but we need stereo pairs and/or LiDAR data in order to draw contours. Note that OUSA has low-cost aerials available from "Pictometry Online"; full details at http://www.orienteeringusa.org/mappers/resources/aerial-imagery
