From the air
Viewing Platform
A named lookout on the city’s high ground, standing over Burwood.
Where it stands
The pin is OpenStreetMap’s own position, the strong outline is the suburb the map puts it in, the rest are its neighbours.
The ground under it
The plans and surveys kept here, asked once of the pin. The whole stack answers live: what stood on this ground →

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