Keep up the good work.

By the way, when naming gas stations, you may drop the string "gas station". Alternatively, you may tag them simply as:
brand=Caltex
amenity=fuel
<operator=Company that operates station>

By the way, your changeset comments can be more useful if you reflect the changes you made for a particular save point. That helps other mappers in your area determine what you did exactly.

Interesting! I'll make sure to drop by next time I'm near the area.

By the way, there's this:
osm.wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dbiergarten

In case, that's the more appropriate tag, rather than a restaurant.

Cheers,

a "dog park" in the middle of nowhere?

35118493 almost 10 years ago

Ruth, please refrain from using Google StreetView . Google-derived data, except for limited instances (i.e. crisis mapping) are not considered acceptable sources for OpenStreetMap because of data licensing incompatibilities.

Update: reviewed imagery. There is a building over water.

Hi Stewbie. This node is on water.

You might want to double-check its accuracy.

34985328 almost 10 years ago

Hi JAT86. Glad to see your new edits. Thank you!

As you may know, the main OSM site is for live data, and is widely used for many purposes, including humanitarian work. If you are interested in doing more tests finding out how things work, or just playing around with the data, the sign up for the OSM Sandbox [0] which lets you work with the live code, and the actual data, without worrying how your tests will affect them.

Happy halloween!

34965751 almost 10 years ago

Revert completed. See 34966793

34965751 almost 10 years ago

The "request" may not be enough for that purpose. We never got public domain data out of DPWH, especially shapefiles so this is possible not compatible with OSM license.

34965751 almost 10 years ago

what is the license of use by which you acquired your DPWH shapefiles?

34956163 almost 10 years ago

The following tags may be more approriate (and specific)
landuse=orchard
crop=strawberry

34872894 almost 10 years ago

Julius, what's that imagere source?

26140457 almost 10 years ago

ref tags, when used with highways refer to information about the road network. In this case, "DPWH" could have been tagged as operator=DPWH, or ownership=national

For additional details, see : osm.wiki/Key:ref
