Projects
- Waze CCP Workshop at MD Dept of Transportation - with nzahn1 and kodi75, October 2019
- I-270 Watkins Mill Interchange - Gaithersburg MD interchange opened in June 2020. Mapped this new interchange, contacted project manager, visited the work site and talked to workers to get to-the-minute opening time. The interchange was mapped and opened within 15 minutes of the opening. It took Google Maps a month to map it.
- White Flint West Workaround - North Bethesda MD major road construction, still in progress. I mapped the updates, visited the site multiple times, and I have been in touch with the project manager for updates. Again, our map updates here have been significantly more timely than other mapping services.
- Ongoing - Lanes, Shields, Turn Instructions
- Ongoing - Falcon project

- Driving EA Collaboration I enjoy helping out in other regions when I have EA. Recently, I traveled to Chapel Hill, NC for a family gathering. After I got back, I had EA along I-85 and I did all the shields/turn instructions down to Durham, NC. I chatted with the NC editors and made sure I checked with them before I touched any freeways. After my updates, hiroaki27609 contacted me to thank me for helping out. I said I was happy to help and I appreciated the collaboration.
