Prepare research in one place
SemiLost combines maps, saved places, visited status and team places so research stays traceable instead of being scattered across notes and screenshots.
SemiLost
Urbex photography planning
Good urbex photography starts before a trip: subject planning, light, weather, team coordination and responsible documentation belong together. SemiLost helps save places and connect media later.
Coordinates are not permission
Exact coordinates help with planning and documentation, but they do not replace permission from the owner or a safety assessment on site.
Organize privately with teams
Teams can use their own places, roles and permissions, keeping private research controlled and away from public public exposure.
Trust signals
No public spot list
SemiLost explains how the map works without exposing sensitive individual locations unnecessarily.
Private team places stay separate
Private team places are meant for the team only and are not published as public place pages.
Report and removal workflow
Report and removal pages give owners, authorities and users a clear review path for sensitive places.
Important safety and legal note
Coordinates and research help with planning and documentation, but they do not replace permission from the owner. SemiLost does not grant access rights or provide tips for bypassing barriers.
Frequently asked questions

Does SemiLost provide exact coordinates?
SemiLost is built around exact coordinates. Sensitive details are handled carefully and are not published broadly on public public pages.

No. Coordinates and research do not grant access rights or replace permission from the owner.
