In 2025, OpenStreetMap Taiwan Community has started to cooperate with Wikidata Taiwan Community to organize Street View Tour again, and in April, the tour was to Huwei and Tuku townships in Yunlin county. The funding source of this tour was Wikimedia Association of Taiwan, and the lunches for the two days (4/26 and 4/27) were sponsored by TomTom company.

The tour gathered outside the Yunlin High Speed Rail station in the morning of 4/26, and then set off to Huwei and Tuku townships to take photos of various temples related to Yunlin Liufang Mazu religion. Even though this was a street view tour, there were a lot of problems with the 360 camera this time 🫠, the one in the author’s car was always crashed (overheated?), while the one in the other car was never able to connect to the cell phone. The one on the car I was driving was always crashed (overheating?), while the one on the other car could not be connected by cell phone. Nonetheless, 53,854 street photos were uploaded to Mapillary this time (including both flat and 360 panoramic photos, some of which have not yet been uploaded at the time of writing this diary).

The next day (4/27) was the editing workshop for the mission, held at this year’s Red Altar (Hongtan) of Yunlin Liufang Mazu religion, where OpenStreetMap edits related to the mission were tagged with the #tt_event theme (either directly in the notes of the changeset or in the hashtags tag of the changeset), and Wikimedia Project edits were viewed in the Wikimedia project’s Dashboard. editors of Wikimedia projects can view them in their Dashboard.
