Questions, answered briefly

What is New Brighton Pier?

A named lookout in the open map’s record of Christchurch, standing over New Brighton.

Is the pin on the map exact?

It’s OpenStreetMap’s position, the top or the viewing spot as the volunteer map marks it. Neighbours on the register are near it, not the same record.

The record behind this

The position, elevation and names are OpenStreetMap’s, a named peak or viewpoint inside the city boundary (ODbL). An elevation is the mapper’s tag, not a fresh survey; the dual names are recorded as the map carries them.
