Mapping Contracts Confirmed

Mapping contracts for WOC 2024 have been awarded to Graham Gristwood and Dave Peel.

Graham (ggmaps.co.uk) and Dave (peellandsurveys.co.uk) were winners of the British Orienteering Mapping Awards 2018 – Graham winning the Walsh Trophy for “best urban or sprint map to ISSOM standards” and Dave the SILVA Trophy for “best map produced by professional mappers.” Both mappers have enjoyed success at top level competition including the World Orienteering Championships and look forward to some of the new challenges as the new International Standards for Sprint Orienteering Maps come into being. Steve Smirthwaite, acclaimed mapper for the Sprint areas used in WOC 2015, will act as an adviser and ensure consistency in mapping styles.
