## Questions, answered briefly

**What is Te Hamo o Tū Te Rakiwhānoa?**

A pouwhenua in the open map’s record of Christchurch. The map credits Caine Tauwhare.

**Is the pin on the map exact?**

It’s OpenStreetMap’s position, a surveyed-looking point, but a volunteer map’s one. Nearby ground and register places are neighbours, not the same record.
