Today is the first day of our mapping blitz... how long a journey it will be, and, well, I don't really have any idea...!
The good news is, however, that Google seems to have, in the last 4 months, made things even easier and better... and it already seemed like the possibilities were great... it just may be that we will be making public some wonderful and wonderfully accessible maps to the Anglican & General parts of Rookwood... soon... soonish...!
Here is a little test and maybe a taster of things to come...
I am hoping that you will be able to view the following through your browser... and that it promises live access to dynamic maps if you are walking around with your iPhone, iPad or Android phone...
The first map (which is a draft only and very much the start of a work in progress) shows many of the Sections in the Anglican & General Trusts' area of Rookwood.

The second shows the general mapping progress as of February 2010... but should highlight other possibilities in how we may be able to serve information to you!
