Changeset When Comment
138292829 about 2 years ago

Hi elviajedekathrin.

Small note, please try to keep your changesets to within relatively small areas. Changesets like this one alert a lot of people to map changes which don't affect them, and makes it more difficult to keep track of edits to the map generally.

Happy mapping!

Hi Kasjus, welcome to OpenStreetMaps :).

Just to point out, when making a bunch of map edits at once, try to keep them to within a relatively small area. In this case, you've made edits that span half the globe, which pings a huge number of people to changes which probably don't affect them, and makes it much harder for others to keep track of changes in their local area.

Happy mapping!

Hi Le Yaneuh, welcome to OpenStreetMaps.
Friendly note, when making map edits, keep them to within a relatively small area. Here, you've made an edit in Iceland and in Switzerland which alerts everyone in between to the changes, and makes it harder to keep track of changes.
Happy mapping!

Hi Limo, regarding WAY: 1182111809, why did you remove the building tag and add landuse=residential? It looks like a building from the satellite imagery, and I believe the building use is part residential and part commercial.

I did verify manually each and every element grabbed by the query, no worries.

And the area id thing: I'd initially tried looking for the relation ID for the UK but couldn't figure out how to find it so settled on the name method instead. I'll keep it in mind for next time, cheers.

Hi Bibechana Sharma, your changeset looks pretty good. I've rotated some of the buildings a little bit as I've noticed in the past that Rapid mapwithai sometimes suggests buildings rotated slightly, but noticeably wrong. Made a few other changes including more geometry detailing and orthogonalizing building way:1184641079. Happy mapping!

Thanks for the kind words Friendly_Ghost, and thanks for making the script :) . Honestly, I spent some hour or two faffing about with it since my understanding of Overpass is somewhat surface level but if you're curious, I've copied up the exact script I used in the Overpass API through JOSM in this pastebin, along with some comments of my rudimentary understanding.

I didn't change any of the actual regex stuff, just the area which is searched, and a few bits at start and end so that I could run it through JOSM instead of Overpass Turbo.

Fair enough I suppose, I'm considering in the distant future maybe to start mapping crossings in the area per the wiki (osm.wiki/Key:crossing) which will probably be quite an undertaking.

Hi Limo4719, for the sake of accuracy, you should 'square' most geometry you draw (some of the buildings you've added here are noticeably wonky). In the ID editor, you can do this by selecting the building and pressing Q.

Hi Limo4719, welcome to OSM!
On this change, just wanted to check, do you know if this shop space has merged with any nearby shops? If not, and this original shop is now vacant/unoccupied, it's better to tag this node with "shop=vacant" and remove the name/brand tags. This way, if the shop space is used by a different company, we don't have to add a new node to the map.

Hi GinaroZ, was wondering why you deleted the crossing tags from two ways on Lapwing Dr?

No problem! I will say though also that in the future, try to keep the changes in your change-set to one area at a time.
The changes you made here span from Scotland through to Sweden, which makes it more difficult for other mappers to keep up-to-date to changes made in their area. Happy mapping!

Ah, wasn't aware that's how it should be interpreted, fair enough, I'll revise the bike stands I've added so far, thanks.

Hi, just wanted to ask how you know building/roof details from a StreetComplete survey? At least one of the buildings defined as 1 floor (namely the one formed from osm.org/node/3028272307) looks like it may have 2 floors.

I was changing the tags to the format specified in the wiki (osm.wiki/Key:disused?uselang=en-GB), but I would agree that Muir Dean no longer even resembles a quarry, unlike Prestonhill and Goat.
Thanks for keeping me straight, still learning the ropes.

Thanks for the advice 👍

Ah, so that's how it's best done. I'll do that from now on, thanks.

The gate in question has a path that goes around it so I've tagged it such that foot and bike access is allowed. Wasn't sure how best to represent this detail.
