61934371 | almost 7 years ago | First off, let me welcome you to OSM. We desperately need more OSMers in Alaska and I was happy to notice some other stuff you have mapped. Hetting back to the question at hand: There is some precedent for tagging the way you chose to do it but generally, if a highway doesn't have a divider, a grass strip or concrete barrier of some sort then it is not a dual carriageway. Google shows that section of the Richardson as a dual carriageway but I think that's incorrect. I would tag it as lanes=5, lanes:forward=2, lanes:backward=2, turn:lanes:forward=left (or backward). The forward or backward refers to the direction the OSM way is drawn. I do a ton of work in Alaska (I live in Homer during the summer, and Thailand in the winter), and it's good to see someone else working in the state I love. If you want me to help change that section to use the lanes scenario, let me know and I will do that. Cheers,

62486996 | almost 7 years ago | Hi Jan,
|
61415316 | almost 7 years ago | Hi,
Be well... |
58346486 | almost 7 years ago | It's actually worse than what you described - there is no amenity tag on either the area or the receptacles. I decided to simply leave it alone because I have no ground survey data to determine what that area actually is.
|
58346486 | almost 7 years ago | I found the area you're referring to at last but even though it appears that I did the tagging, I believe the history function is not working properly because I did not add that object originally. I know that because I would NEVER add that type of obviously created name and description on those receptacles even if they were placed on the nodes. I'm at a loss to explain why the history of that object has my name in it with 100% of it attributed to me (???) I removed the tags from the area and placed them on three nodes to represent the three receptacles visible in the imagery. |
58346486 | almost 7 years ago | I cannot find any amenity=waste_basket tags in Eugene that are not a simple node. Can you be more specific?
|
51100813 | about 7 years ago | Fixed it. The tag was meant for the food shop nearby.
|
57075852 | over 7 years ago | Got it, extra tags removed. Thanks! |
57071996 | over 7 years ago | Thank you for the note. I forgot to clean up the original tags and left some extra tags on one section. I removed those. But I don't see any "overlap" with previously mapped rivers. Can you explain more fully what you mean? |
50322539 | over 7 years ago | After doing some more checking, I learned that the smaller, older boundary multipolygon is incomplete. A large section is missing. If you have no objection, I will delete it and simplify the boundary you added last year. |
50322539 | over 7 years ago | You added a 1500 node boundary for Emdendorf AFB in Alaska but failed to remove the pre-existing 100 node boundary that was added in 2013. I have two questions: Was that merely an oversight? And, is a 1500 node boundary really necessary to delineate this AFB? It certainly seems to me that many redundant nodes could be removed from your NHD data without affecting the boundary for the purposes of OSM. But the bigger question is, can you revisit this object and clear up the double boundary in some fashion? Many thanks. |
55399627 | over 7 years ago | I checked Google, and it gives Den Ha Dong Mada Road as the name. Thai street names are notoriously hard to map properly because signs bearing the name are rare. Many times the name is just a best guess and might be based on one road sign many km distant. |
55399627 | over 7 years ago | Somehow, portions of 1211 including this one, got renamed Den Ha (1211). Mapper did not give source. I renamed it to what it was previously, Sunwichai Road, which is a translation of the Thai name tag. |
38669450 | over 7 years ago | Thank you,
Also changed the name of the heliport to match the name of the island. It had been tagged Seal Island Heliport. |
36797930 | over 7 years ago | Hi,
Thanks,

38669450 | over 7 years ago | Hi timdine, I am looking at some structures (a radio tower at 70.4914528, -148.6994692 for example) you placed on an "island" in the Beaufort Sea near Prudhoe Bay. However, none of the imagery I used shows any island or any structures. Can you tell me where your data for this place came from? Dave |
53222228 | almost 8 years ago | You added a service road and bridge id:535046356 in Lamphun province. I recently drove through that area and there is no bridge, only a small service road. There is construction nearby but from my recall, no reason for a bridge there. |
52319563 | almost 8 years ago | Ordinarily, I would agree with you. I came across Shea's description through a newspaper article I read that mentioned Stray Dog West. When I searched for it on OSM, nothing came up and I wanted to at least put a findable entry into Nominatum. The uncertainty of the position is why I added the fixme tag. I will remove it if you insist but would prefer to leave it there until future imagery allows better placement. |
47049836 | almost 8 years ago | @erkinalp, I'm not sure that would be strictly correct either. But, in any case, the better imagery resolved this particular issue. I'll be visiting the area next summer and I'll do bit of field work then. |
