Data collection using paper and pencil

This article is a stub. You can help OpenStreetMap by expanding it.

Pros

• Good drawing skills will help you to get fine details
• Very cheap and independent of weather conditions (pencil will work from -60°C to +40°C) just make sure to protect paper (water and physical damage)
• No need in electricity (permanent or batterers)
• Low weight
• Low cost

Cons

• Same as with using your memory
• You will need $1 to pay for paper and pencil
• You may need reliable light source (it would be difficult to write during storm or night time)
