Using an online mapping system developed by Astun, the Ramblers walking charity mobilised thousands of volunteers in a high profile national campaign to find and map over 49,000 miles of historic rights of way before they are lost forever.
In just 6 weeks, over 4000 ‘citizen geographers’ used the online mapping tool to review 154,000 km squares, and found and mapped a staggering 49,138 miles of rights of way that are missing from the definitive maps in England and Wales.
