About · field notes

A commons for the
ground that’s waiting.

An open atlas of dormant, distressed, or simply underappreciated ground: land, buildings, civic places, and the online societies forming in the cloud to activate them on the land.

The commons

Surveyed, then shared

Anyone can plot a place by dropping a pin, and drawing a boundary for land. Submissions are reviewed before they appear, so the map stays trustworthy.

The legend

What you can map

Land
Building
Civic Asset
Society

Each pin carries a condition, from usable to derelict, you can filter by.

Open by design

A public good, not a product

Data is licensed CC-BY-4.0; the code is AGPL-3.0 and open source. CloudtoTerra is the public-good sibling of Nubis; a curated subset can feed it as signal, but the map stays open.

Contribute

Add what you know

Switch to the map, choose a type, and add a place in your town. That is the whole ask.
