- FootNotes cover all 1,741 Japanese municipalities; 625 have articles, which the site says are checked against public sources.
Field notes
The page describes an optional statistics contribution using visited towns and roughly 500-metre grid cells grouped by hour; it says users can stop sharing and delete previously sent data. For Japanese municipalities, population and area figures are attributed to national sources, while overseas facts are attributed to Wikidata. The app itself is still marked as coming soon.
