Mapping success stories
TODO : Success stories are designed to highlight important contributions. Have you significantly improved the cartography of a country (added a new line, a power station, etc.)? Don't be shy, let us know below.
- InfosReseaux 2025-05-04: Most of 220 kV national grid is complete excepted for underground links in Beirut. Added a few more lines in 150 kV and unspecified voltage and a few substations
Encountered problems and places to improve
- Beirut substations are difficult to find when located in buildings. Underground paths linking indoor substations to Bsalim, Jamhour, Aramoun and Mkalles substations can't be guessed and no suitable source currently allows to add them to OpenStreetMap
Use of mapping strategies
TODO : Mapping strategies refer to Power networks/Guidelines#Mapping strategies. They are used for a methodical improvement of the OSM database. Once you have fully applied a strategy in this country, you should add or update your name, the date, the strategy, and a comment below. This way, other users can see whether it is worthwhile to carry out further investigations.
