Re-tagged as ambulance station

landuse tags are usually applied on subdivisions, not individual lots.

Hi there. Landuse tags are not usually used on individual plots. There are many self-paced learning modules available from http://learnosm.org, to learn the basic and advanced OSM mapping.

There's a tag, old_name, which you can use to retain the name of an object. There's also alt_name, for alternative names.

You can find more info about names at the wiki: osm.wiki/Names

For the building, instead of building=yes, you could be more specific, like building=chapel, especially if it's purposely built as that.

Good job! Welcome to OpenStreetMap!

"service_times" refer to schedule of services. More info about this tag: osm.wiki/Key:service_times

Hi Gerald. Glad to see your contributions in OSM. Also, a belated welcome. :)

Here's a tip: try to avoid abbreviations and acronyms. In this case, this should remain as "Elizabeth Street".

You can read more about that, here: osm.wiki/Names#Abbreviation_.28don.27t_do_it.29

Note: trying out OSM Streak, https://github.com/Zverik/osmstreak

I specifically set it up not to add any data to OSM. I'll look into it further.

A failed experiment. I thought it didn't publish the edit. I'll revert, thank you for the heads-up.

To indicate a building involved in retail (like convenience stores), the tags are as follows: building=retail shop=convenience

Also, since Boljoon is not a city, the preferred address tag would be: addr:town=Boljoon.

Don't forget to square corners, and to make sure that buildings are not connected to another.

Keep on mapping!

Hello there. The description you've been adding to some of the map features are interesting. Thank you for taking the time to add them.

When adding features, there is no need to map features twice. For example, you don't need to add a point for the municipal hall, when you've already defined a polygon to be such. The one that represents the object more accurately, is preferred over another.

Apart from names, you need to classify objects accurately. Health centers are often tagged as amenity=clinic. Gymnasiums are leisure=sports_centre.

👍

Tip: when adding names to features, don't abbreviate (e.g "Patrocinio de Maria Street" instead of "Patrocinio de Maria St."

Also, when working on grids that require you to digitize buildings, for example, don't click the "done" button if it's still incomplete, just use "unlock" and you (or another mapper) can return to it later.

Hello, and welcome to OpenStreetMap.

I'm curious about your edits. Are you associated with The Generics Pharmacy?

Thank you for your edits. You're helping make a better map of your neighbourhood.

Instead of renaming a point when an establishment has closed for business, I suggest that you delete the old point, and then add a new one instead.

For example, the defunct Adobo Connection point could be deleted. And you create a new one for the new business, Teriyaki Boy. This allows the database to create historical information about an area.

The only exception to this is when establishments occupy whole buildings mapped as polygons. In that case, simply renaming it is alright.

Hello there. Welcome to OpenStreetMap (OSM).

We noticed that you're new in OSM, but you've been editing a lot of mature features. Kindly be careful about your edits because the live map is also being used for humanitarian work, and emergency services.

One of your changesets has been reverted, and we are reviewing the rest.

Hello. Thank you for your edits, and welcome to OSM. I'm GOwin from the local OSM community.

We noticed a pattern in recent edits in this area of Los Baños, and your account appears to be one of several following this particular pattern.

Are you affiliated with any group, or directed by any person, as part of any organized mapping effort? We'd like to know more about your project, and its objectives.
