Questions, answered briefly

What is Livingstone Bay?

A named bay on Christchurch’s coast, as the open map records it.

What else is Livingstone Bay called?

The map also records “Te Awa Toetoe”, the page answers to all of them.

Where exactly is Livingstone Bay?

The pin is OpenStreetMap’s own position for the bay, a bay’s pin sits on the water it names, a headland’s on the point. Neighbours on the register are near it, not the same record.

The record behind this

The position and the names are OpenStreetMap’s, a named bay or cape inside the city boundary (ODbL). The dual names are recorded as the map carries them; a pin is the mapper’s position, not a surveyed mark.
