Questions
- How many playgrounds are there in Sydney?
- 822 are currently mapped in OpenStreetMap within the area this page covers. That is close to the real figure in well surveyed cities, and an undercount in places where mapping is still thin.
- Which playground in Sydney is closest to me?
- Allow location access and the map centres on you, with the nearest playgrounds around it. You can also pair playgrounds with toilets and ice cream using the "With kids" preset, which is usually what you actually need on a day out.
- Do the listings say what equipment a playground has?
- Only when a contributor surveyed it. OpenStreetMap can record swings, slides, climbing frames and the age range a playground is meant for, but most points carry just the location and sometimes a name.
- Where does this playgrounds data come from?
- From OpenStreetMap, a map built by volunteer surveyors and maintained continuously. It is the best available source for small fixtures like this one, because they are the things commercial map providers do not bother collecting.
- Something is missing or wrong. Can I fix it?
- Yes, and it is the fastest way to get it corrected. Edit the point on openstreetmap.org and the change flows through to this page on the next refresh. There is no separate database here to correct.
- Is the list of playgrounds in Sydney complete?
- It is as complete as the local survey effort. Densely mapped cities are close to exhaustive; elsewhere expect gaps. The map is always the fuller view, since the list on this page only names the points that have a name.
