Veloviewer Tile Bagging?

Took out the pro membership today, am procrastinating heavily. 2x2 max square!! I've got work to do

edit: 25 activities, it hasn't loaded my data yet
edit2: 10x10 max square, not bad

This tool is fantastic. So. Much. Data.

8 overlapping 14x14 squares, max cluster up to 453.

Ride next Monday should take me to 18x18 max square and bump up the cluster quite a bit as it'll join up a bunch of tiles in the Surrey Hills.

Still aiming to cover all tiles inside the the M25, after Monday I'll have done the quadrant from the M4 round to the M23.

How are you getting on, Greenbank?

Kind of stalled as my main focus switched to running (and now swimming).

Should start to get out on the bike again from next Monday I hope as I've no real excuse.

18x18 and cluster is 511, which is what it was after that ride I talked about 6 months ago.

Anyone else made some progress over the winter?

I've several overlapping 11x11 squares, but can easily make a 13x13 one with my next ride.

And a max cluster of 228, which should inch north of 250 once I've done that ride.

Think then I'll give it a rest and start trying to improve my position on the SE England climbing leaderboard...

Got up to 10x10, 3 overlapping versions, with a ride over Winter Hill earlier this month.

I should be able to get to 15x15 in a few rides, although this means targeting the pink squares which are mostly moorland or hilltop, and quite far from the green block where home is.

Cluster 312.

Now 12x12, cluster of 367

Tile wall in maps.me (East here), can that be changed?

@Greenbank maybe?

?

Are you filling in the green and magenta 'target' squares manually or is there some feature I've missed?

This is the max square map from veloviewer kml imported into maps.me.

And I have done quite a few tiles between Colchester and Manningtree.

So for routing I’d like to see the ones I haven’t been.

The download of unexplored tiles only covers tiles that are within 10 of your max cluster. So if you want to extend the unexplored tiles you need to extend you max cluster, and to do that you'll have to plan the first route whilst looking at the map in Veloviewer itself to see which tiles are unexplored further out. That's how I do mine if I'm not picking off an area that's within 10 squares of what I've already done.

Thanks, unexplored tiles rationing I see.

Okay that makes sense how I can see more S.

I'm using Paint.net to put colourcoding on different layers.

Of course, you can plot a fake route to extend your cluster, add some timestamps to it (or use Digital EPO), upload it, grab the new kml file and then delete the faked ride.

Ok, thanks

Brilliant 100 miles fixie, Cycle route 1 mostly; and I miss a tile near Maldon in the route planning so my max cluster don’t go to Woodbridge.

Just found this thread. I've been gently pursuing tiles for a while now. Up to 19x19 with a max cluster of 560. Should be able to bump my square up quickly if I went after some obvious gaps, but they're in areas I really can't be bothered to ride: nasty, dangerous roads, right across town. So I find myself just spilling ever further SE instead.

Beautiful! Fuck riding in the burbs, lanes and bridleways are where it's at.

Yours looks pretty similar to mine, aside from some suburban gaps that I don't want to fill :(

The place called Biggin Hill on that map is very confusing...

Biggin Hill is def in the wrong place. Connecting London to Brighton with a cluster needs to be finished at some point.

Theres's a small road or park called Biggin Hill in South Norwood or something, but it's weird that it's given such prominence in that map view.

L2b!

Hm, not tile bagging, but I don't know where else to put this:

Yeah but @Ruserius is the real working man's London street bagger!
