| | | I keep a list of places I've been, places that are now demolished that I never went too, and places I want to go. I'll record how many times I've been as well but beyond that and photos, I don't usually keep track of much else. Although I guess when I write blog entries I cover the "additional explorer" and "date" points as well. Security incursions are easy enough for me to remember without documenting them but I usually write about those too. Long story short, I tend to document location, date, additional explorers, security incursions and internal/external building details with blog posts.

| | | The logs I've been keeping have location, date, time, purpose, whether I was noticed/caught, people who I was with, POE, and notes. So pretty much the same as you minus a few things. Anything new seems like a good idea though, so I think I'll add that. On a similar note, do you keep a log on locations? I currently have one that has name of the location, address, Whether it has cameras/guards, security notes, POE, and general notes. I find it's pretty useful, since that way when returning to places, I can remind myself what to watch out for by reading over it.

| | | I do this as well. I have a very well-organized system of keeping track of locations. I create a write-up of each location with details about the history of the location and the exploration itself. Included are important dates, chronological order of uses/names for the building, date of exploring, points of entry, any hindrances like guards or people around, locations of nearby buildings and roads, the weather, etc. I also write a paragraph or so about my personal experience including things like minor injuries, anything odd I saw/heard/smelled, any people I encountered or talked to. I also create a hand-drawn map of each location afterward including each room of the building and what it was likely used for. In a larger building, a school for example, I might not label every single classroom, instead listing an entire classroom wing as "classrooms." But places like the gym, locker rooms, swimming pool, cafeteria, library, etc. will absolutely be on there.

| | | Posted by MeesterPanda I've been using google my maps to keep track of where I've been and the status of buildings (also since I can't access the database here), but I'm not sure how good an idea that is
| I used to use Google Maps, and it used to be great. Then they made an update, and it was fucking TERRIBLE and I stopped using anything, altogether, while floundering around, looking for something usable that would preserve all my existing work. (I update to kml from time to time. It's not a great backup, but it's better than nothing.) Now, My Maps works pretty well again, and I've happily re-implemented my maps, updated some controls, and have been able to do all sorts of good stuff, again. Mad props to Google for making their maps app usable, again!

| | | I maintain a log on google calc, also my two friends, who I mainly urbex with, have privileges to it. Just some basic stuff: security, PoE, where the place is, how big it is, how long would it take to explore it, is it interesting and misc notes. The main purpose was to have a quick way to decide where we could go if we all have for ex. 3h to spend. I hadn't heard about mymaps before, I will definitely check it out.
