OpenStreetMap, a project that creates and distributes free geographic data for the world, is missing plenty of them related to the area of concern (centered on São Luís and delimited by Cercal, Reliquias, Odemira and Vila Nova de Milfontes).

Here are some tools to improve the situation:

“Mapillary works on the principle that anyone can capture and use street-level images. By sharing data on a collaborative platform, everyone wins. And as the need for up-to-date maps keeps growing, computer vision is the key to scaling up map data generation.

The images on Mapillary are available for anyone to explore. The images and the data extracted from them can be used by map makers, cities, transport agencies, logistics and delivery companies, automotive companies, humanitarian organizations, NGOs, and anyone else who needs geospatial information from street-level images.”
