Are the airport boundaries accurate? It seems that parts of the Morrow Boulevard goes inside the airport complex.

Kindly make sure that you trace the building outlines as accurate as possible, and that you don't forget to square building corners.

We know it's hard work, but we appreciate if you could make that extra effort.

This looks. Thank you for adding details and helping improve the map of your favorite neighborhood.

I'm curious though as to why you're randomly mapping/skipping buildings instead of tracing all the features within the area you're working on.

Awesome! Welcome to OpenStreetMap (OSM)!

Some of the features you've added we're done incorrectly, don't worry they've been fixed by other mappers. The osm.wiki is a useful reference for finding more information about mapping particular features.

The map we're working on is live, and could affect users who are involved in disaster or emergency response. So, try to be careful with the edits.

Also, find out the latest happenings, or interact with local contributors through these community channels: osm.wiki/PH/channels

If you have any questions at all, please feel free to get in touch. You might be doubtful about a particular tag, or would like to clarify their use. Or perhaps, you have ideas you want to flesh out to improve your neighbourhood map. Or maybe just want to know more about OSM.

Cheers,

Please avoid using the `hamlet` tag to add names near features. Add the name direclty to the features themselves, if necessary.

Hamlet tag are used for small settlements.

Thank you for your effort. However, these buildings needs a lot of improvement.

1. Avoid connecting buildings with other buildings (or other features, like roads, etc.)
2. Make sure to square building corners.

Also, try to tag features more accurately.

Hi there. When tracing buildings, remember to avoid connecting them to other objects (buildings, roads, etcetera) unless they are physically connected in real life.

Buildings are rarely directly connected to roads.

Good work, @norbertombueno!

When adding farmlands, you don't need to add a place name that describe it's function (eg. "Ricefields"). Instead, add a tag crop=rice in the area that you digitized as such.

This image shows how "squared" buildings should look like. The two buildings you did earlier (red outline) still show the angular edge where you traced the rooftops, which we don't usually trace as-is.

65072794 over 6 years ago

Maayo!

You seem to be particularly interested in local schools, would you need any more assistance on this?

Ideally, changeset comments should describe the changes you made so that future editors can understand your edits better.

You need to tag the grounds as a school, and not as a separate node/point.

Buildings normally has squared corners, while yours edits try to follow the rooftop shapes, hence the angular sides. When mapping buildings, what we're really after are building footprints, and tracing rooftops allow us to, more or less, determine that.

I'll modify this changeset and you can review it yourself, to see how we conventionally do it.

If you have questions, or concerns, please do not hesitate to task. We have various channels you can try if you have questions, or wish to know more local mappers: osm.wiki/PH/channels

Hello @norbertombueno, and welcome to OpenStreetMap (OSM).

Thank you! Kudos for helping make a better map of your favorite neighborhoods. OSM is a database of real-world features, used by many humanitarian and emergency service organizations. Fictional edits has no place in OSM.

Hello Tee_jay 1631. Welcome to OpenStreetMap, and thank you for your contributions.

I noticed in your edits that you've been appending "®veoIII" to the features names.

Kindly refrain from doing this because those features don't have that string as part of their names in the real world. OSM is about creating a better map of our favorite neighborhoods, and we want to make them as accurate as possible.

If you're interested in determining what you've been adding to OSM, try this Overpass Turbo query: http://pygy.co/GM

Let me know if you need help redacting this string from the features you made.

Hello @Frsaiop, and welcome to OpenStreetMap (OSM).

Thank you! Kudos for helping make a better map of your favorite neighborhoods. OSM is a database of real-world features, used by many humanitarian and emergency service organizations. Fictional edits has no place in OSM.

When you have a few minutes to spare, try the browser-based editor called iD, to edit the map of your community. You may find it quicker and easier if you need to update a lot of information on the map.

Hi there.

I can see that you're diligently trying to map the buildings within this neighborhood, but you're missing the step where you need to "tag" the feature as a building

If you need any help, don't hesitate to ask, or checkout the docs at osm.wiki

Hi again @Camille Ramos.

I can see that you're putting in a lot of effort for this. Thank you!

However, there are issues here that needs fixing. Like not "squaring" building corners, overlapping polygons, and incorrect tags.

I'm looking forward to hear back from you, so I could offer help to rectify these.

Hello @Camille Ramos. Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

I noticed your recent changesets, and you appear to be trying to map buildings but the features you digitized are just tagged as "area=yes."

Also, changeset comments should provide a description of the edits you made, and not just a ".".

I would recommend that you check out the MapGive instructions about learning how to map: https://www.mapgive.state.gov/learn-to-map/

Or, the self-paced learning modules at https:.//learnosm.org.

If you have questions, you can reach out to other active contributors from the local community through any of the channels found here: osm.wiki/PH/channels

Ayo-ayo,
GOwin

These POIs look great, @Mikko.

Some tags, though, are incomplete. Check out to the documented tags at osm.wiki/Philippines/Mapping_conventions for reference.

Do say, if you need any help with the tags.

Thank you for mapping for #ompongPH @servolevis.

I reviewed your recent edits, and noticed that you can do better next time by trying to map building footprints more accurately by zooming in further, and squaring buildings corners to improve their geometry.

http://imgur.com/91d95ORl.png

Also, separate buildings must be traced individually. Mapping multiple buildings with one polygon is not the ideal way to map them. We understand that this could become tedious, but it's alright to simply select a smaller task, or split an assigned to task, so it becomes more manageable for you.

Intepreting imagery takes some getting used to, so just remember that in this task, we're mapping building footprints, and you should avoid digitizing areas outside the building, like shadows or the likes.

We hope you'd try your hand in other tasks soon, and again thank you for your time and effort.

Cheers,
