Help mapping a bus gate with opening hours that *extend* rather than *override* the regular rule.

Side note, many people think that it’s best to put a negative default, in this case motor_vehicle=no and reverse the conditional. Maybe not easier to express with the opening_hour syntax…

The rational is that routers that don’t support *:conditional tags will route users around this road, instead of risking to route through a closed road.

I’m not sure it’s a great idea, it might depend on the length on the detour, the ratio of open vs closed times, but I’ve read about that in many places.

If you think this image is important, you might want to use the image tag.

OSM what is needed and what to do

About the third part, you might want to check out OpenEventDatabase.

I don’t think it’s actively maintained anymore, but has a lot of ideas implemented.

points fort et faible OSM ?

Bonjour,

OSM est un écosystème assez vaste, centré sur une base de données géographiques commune, libre et ouverte.

Vous pouvez commencer par lire le wiki.

Le SCR par défaut est généralement le WGS84. Certains outils permettent d’ouvrir des shapefiles, mais c’est rarement une bonne idée.

Cordialement.

Sure, I’ll do that.

If you are curious, I’m using the changeset discussion tool, you can follow there : osm.org/changeset/94116627

Indeed, short links don’t seem to work anymore.

I‘d say the route is incorrectly tagged from Florencia southwards.

From recent satellite views (Google Maps, 2021), it seems that the road is marked (and used) down to this roundabout : osm.org/?mlat=10.34018&mlon=-84.44424#map=17/10.34018/-84.44424&layers=N

Does that makes sense to you ?

The part south of this point was tagged as not in construction anymore one year ago, by joserrg12 in changeset #94116627 .

You might want to contact him before correcting the data.

Best regards.

I have tested this with Organic Maps, the privacy-friendly fork of maps.me, and it does not route through the part tagged as construction.

Would you say that the road north of this place : osm.org/go/YF7uAyfUE–?m= is incorrectly tagged ? From the aerials it seems there are proper exits, but it’s hard to be sure.

Solar power mapping in China: a comparison against ML data

Hi,

I wonder why the training the dataset is not licenced as ODbL ? It’s seems like an extract of OSM data.

And I’m curious about whether this training dataset has been fixed straight in OSM, or if there is a derivative database that could improve OSM…

I see that there is no mention of OSM in the Acknowledgements section on GitHub.

I’m not sure, but I think maybe an issue in the repository about these questions might be useful.

Regards.

Atelier Garage de réparation automobile

Bonjour,

cet espace de journal est dédié à la communication entre cartographes. Votre garage n’apparaîtra pas sur la carte. Pour cela il faut modifier la base de données OSM, quelques guides : https://learnosm.org/fr/beginner/ osm.wiki/FR:Guide_du_d%C3%A9butant

Sinon vous pouvez déposer une Note, qui sera traitée par un autre cartographe. La documentation : osm.wiki/FR:Notes

Cordialement.

Do not map like this (a collection of incorrect mapping practices)

Well, I understand for the second one, but the other two look pretty accurate to me.

Would you care to explain and source your reasoning?

Mapping while taking a walk.

Mapillary can help. Or other street-level photos project.

Otherwise I use OsmAnd Notes, I just usually don’t upload, and process them myself.

A New Way to Use OSM

Hi,

You might want to check out facilmap and organic maps (the fork of maps.me).

I think it would be bettter to join an existing project than start our own.

My 2 cents.

Mapping in flooded areas in Germany (July 2021)

Hello,

I’m not sure this message will be seen by all those you would like to help by updating the database.

Mapping missing bridges strikes me as useful, at least for routing.

If you want to keep the state of the database before the catastrophe, download an extract, even set up a rendering server based on it. Or the openstreetmap.de rendering server could stop updating for a while, with a note.

My 2 cents.

Map Validation at Facebook

@benoitdd I was wondering also. Maybe the import of buildings from cadastre, not always clean polygons…

I would be really curious to explore the data, but I couldn’t find it.

Displaying post offices and postboxes using uMap and the Overpass API

Hello,

In order to lighten to load on overpass, you should specify the bounding box of the displayed map. Here is a doc to do that, in french though…

On the other hand, you should have a look at MapComplete, which is a thematic map viewer and editor. There is some image support (display from wikimedia, osm image, upload to imgur).

MapContrib and StreetComplete are in the same spirit.

Regards.

Changement d'activité

Bonjour,

vous parlez bien de celle-ci : osm.org/node/2207079096 ?

Si c’est le cas, n’hésitez pas à supprimer le nœud, c’est assez simple. Sinon dites-moi, je pourrais le faire. Et d’autre part, en effet, les notes sont plus précises et plus faciles à traiter.

Une bonne lecture si vous voulez apprendre à participer à OSM : https://learnosm.org/fr/beginner/

what to do with the bookmakers under the pylons in Ghana

@SK53 It’s probably the case, Maps.me doesn’t allow to modify existing items anymore. And creating notes is not easy, you have to create a feature, and add a note on it…

I guess Maps.me is the wrong tool for what they are trying to do.

http://learnosm.org/ is a good entry point for new mappers and users.

Where are all the highway areas gone?

Simple answer : it is not a valid tagging.

Simple solution : choose another style that still display it anyway.
