Une mise à l'échelle
This page contains information relating to mapping activity that is specific to the Quebec Canada.
A Sense of Scale
The Quebec roads total approximately 185,000 km. At a mapping speed of 5km/h, in groups of 10 people working 10 hours a day, this would necessitate 370 days of walking. If done on all 52 weekends of a year, that's 7,1 years.
