OSM and Mapillary - How I do it now - March 2025

That’s amazing!

Thanks, Bob :-)

points - what do i use for old World War II Bofors gun tower

Another possible option is osm.org/way/1023802472

Call for ideas from Microsoft

In regard to missing addresses, as mentioned by Tastrax ^.

Here in Australia, & I’m sure in other places, we have access to some Government data, but other departments refuse to allow us permission to use their data, often as they’re apparently scared / confused by the requirement to agree to allowing use under ODbL.

I would think that Microsoft would have a LOT bigger pull than OSM! :-), so it would be great if you could access even just street number data worldwide, & feed that into OSM, possibly by RapiD?

That would help solve one of the major problems with use of OSM for navigating - not being able to find the address you want to go to.

🌂 The Past, The Present, The Future

I’m sorry to see you leave, NC, hope you’ll be back one day, & would like to thank you for your many contributions to OSM.

I also hope that your reverter https://revert.monicz.dev/ will stay operational?
