Hi alWin, Thanks for mapping on this project
I am reviewing Tasks before validating them. I noticed that you are a new mapper and want to share some of my findings.
Buildings in general are streight rectangular or circular. You map buildings along the outlines of trees instead of extrapolating the sides of a building.
See this website and links in it for more understanding
Do not collect more than 1 building in a mapped building. A building has mostly a shadow side which means it is above groundlevel. You mapped pieces of ground as a building. Asxqnd do not forget to square all rectangular buildings with the S keu
These are all beginners errors. No problem with that. please review the wiki's about how to map
Thanks and keep mappings

Hi Elisa
Thanks for mapping here. Would you be so kind to square the rectangular buildings you have mapped?
you hardly squared buildings, which is required. Use the S key in iD editor
see also the wiki about mapping
Best regards and keep mapping

Hello, Thanks for mapping on this project.
I review tasks and correct errors before validating them. A request.
Please square the (rectangular) buildings with the S key after mapping. You forgot to square so many buildings
Best regards and keep mapping

Hi, back again. you tend to map round buildings bigger than they are. Please tag these buildings as building=yes. This is standard tagging for buildings.
Thanks again

Hello. Thanks for mapping here. I review tasks and correct objects etc before validating. I noticed that you are a new mapper. It might be interesting to read these articles to become a more understanding of mapping
Best regards and keep mapping.

Hello Tadipatri.
Thanks for mapping on this project.
I am reviewing task and correct warnings and errors. I notice that you map often only highway=unclassified, despite the road is to narrow to be driven by cars.
Please connect also highways together where they meet. ( a gps driven nav system cannot handle gaps in a highway)
Please look carefully how to tag highways
Take a look to these wiki's
osm.wiki/User:Bgirardot/West_African_HOT_Mapping_Tips#Small_Village_and_Road_Mapping (most is suitable in East Africa as well)
osm.wiki/East_Africa_Tagging_Guidelines

Best regards and keep mapping
PS. As a beginner mapper please do not validate tasks. You need much experience to do review tasks and correct them. Also Id editor is not the right tool for that.

Hello Renate. Thanks for mapping here.
I review mappings before validating them and correct wrongly mapped objects.
A remark. I noticed that you mapped a highway in the scrub as footway and sidewalk. You don't expect that kind of highways here.Those belong in City parks and alongside town streets. Please take a look to this wiki how to tag them
osm.wiki/East_Africa_Tagging_Guidelines
I corrected them. ( do not tag crossings as unmarked highway crossing)
This guide might be of interest as well .

Despite this has been called for West Africa. Most of the subjects are valid as well overhere.
Best regards and keep mapping

Hello, Thanks for mapping here.
I validate tasks and correct errors and faulty mapped objects. I have changed quite a number of highways, tagged as unclassified ( suitable for 4 wheeled vehicles) which are, when you take a close look and measure them, hardly more a path, or in villages and hamlets residential highways. Minimum width of highway 1,8 mtr. On clear images you can even see the wheeltracks
Sometimes it is not clear which tag to use. I know; I have may doubts as well sometimes.
You are familiar with this guidelines I quess

Hallo, Bedankt voor het mappen hier. I controleer taken en correct ze alvorens ze te valideren. Een opmerking. Je tagt een pad als footway. een betere tag is Path. Footway is meer voor stedelijke gebieden als vrijstaand pad door parken etc( alleen voetpad). Path is bruikbaar voor vee, motoren en uiteraard ook als voetpad
Kijk hier ook even
osm.wiki/East_Africa_Tagging_Guidelines
Je hoeft geen gebieden te mappen. Je tagt hier een paar gebieden met de tag pampasgras. Scrub is hier meer op zijn plaats. En als je ze dan toch nog wilt mappen zorg er dan voor dat de nodes geen gebouwen of wegen raken.
o ja, vergeet ook niet rechthoekige gebouwen vierkant te maken met de S key.
Vriendelijke groeten en map ze

I forgot to ask if you want to square all your rectangular buildings with the S keys.. You mapped 184 buildings here of which 177 were not squared
Best regards

Hallo OSNiz. Thank you for mapping on this project. I review task and check on errors and bad mappings. I have some remarks
Most buildings are straight rectangular, when you see a nod in a roof, that is because the image is taken under a corner which shows also a piece of wall and on the other side a shadow, So for a simple building 4 nodes is sufficient. You mapped often an extra node in the middle of the roof. Please do not connect nodes of a highway to a node of a building and let nodes of buildings not connect to each other. Map each building separately, don't cluster buildings and tag it as 1 building.
Best regards and keep mapping

Hello Inoellemorgan. Thank you for mapping On this project. I am reviewing tasks to solve problems, wrong mappings etc before validating. A remark. I noticed that you consequently mapped a residential highway in a hamlet and connected it to a node of a building. This is wrong. Just end a highway in the proximity or when the road is in view of a building, don't map a connection road.
Best regards and keep mapping

Hi , Highways are often difficult to tag.
What kind of criteria do you use now for an unclassified highway here. You tagged a narrow way 1,2 mtr max as unclassified. I should say. path at best when you see the destignation (round huts) . I am still strugling. :-)

Hello Rebeca, Thanks for mapping here
I am reviewing tasks and look for errors and wrongly mapped objects. a question. I found over 50 buildings mapped by you which were not squared properly. Do work in JOSM . Don't you use the Building tool ?
Best regards

Hello, back again.
When you map a highway, please be sure to connect the nodes on crossings to each other and do not leave a gap between highways.
Do not connect nodes of buildings to a node of a highway
Best regards

Hello LilaLaakso
Thanks for mapping on this task. A remark
I review work and check for errors or faulty taggings before validating a task. You tagged highways in a village as Living_street. This tag should be used in dense city nabourhoods. Here the tag residential is more appropriate. See also this wiki
osm.wiki/East_Africa_Tagging_Guidelines

Hallo Otto, Thanks for mapping here. I am reviewing tasks and check them before validating. I noticed that you often map a building and the surrounding courtyard as 1 building. Please be more precise in mapping and try to follow the outlines of buildings as well. A question. Don't you use the Building tool in JOSM? I had to square quite a lot of buildings you've mapped
Best regards and keep mapping

Hello, thanks for mapping on this disaster project. A remark. Please stick to the objects to map. In this case Buildings. You are mapping woodland as well on a rather rough manner which introduces lots of errors which have to be solved. These mappings will be deleted due to the amount of work to repair them and they are not of any use in these circumstances
Best regards and please keep mapping

Hello Mr Callaghan. Thank you for mapping here. A remark. Please keep in mind that a crossing highway/waterway always a bridge or a ford tagging needs
Best regards
