@m-ezd That’s nice to know! In my case I find it easier not to tinker too much with these settings especially as I also use it for it’s main purpose that is mapping buildings. It would be useful for anyone starting a mapping session in heavy parking areas.

1. The Gridify plugin apply the tags of the “overall shape” to the splitted elements. So it’s a generally a breeze to tag. The buildingTools plugin simply create elements with building=yes, I delete it while still in “overall shape” and add the parking_space related tags before splitting.

2. Ha, thanks for the tip! That’s what I thought but the preview somehow didn’t showed the pictures so I just let it has it is thinking the problem was coming from somewhere else (Some pics where freshly uploaded, that may have been the issue here).

For what it’s worth, in France we also have a limited range of dimensions regarding tactile paving. We have a lot of rules about pedestrian crossings such as: * 40 cm width for tactile paving (120 cm minimum total length) which seems identical with your values ; * 50 cm distance to the road (kerb included). In front of the paving, the kerb should have a max height of 2 cm to be considered “ flushed” and 5 cm on the sides. Unfortunately of the 4 rules mentionned, only the first is frequently respected. The reason being that it would require too much supplementary work to reduce the size of standardized slabs.

Without going into the details (and also because I’m no expert in that subject), I would like to point that “mapping” has a very broad definition. Not all of us create OpenStreetMap’s items, does that even counts as “mapping” or is it some form of pinpointing on a canvas arbitrary words ? What’s a map in that matter ? Is someone mapping by taking pictures of a place ? How about without even taking pictures but just strolling through streets and sharing it ?

In my case, I just do like data hoarding and sharing. OpenStreetMap is the perfect place as it gave me the opportunity to share my local knowledge, my own perception of the world. Furthermore it makes me feel that childish pleasure of creating treasure’s maps, adding POI at waypoints, and sharing it with friends to play with.

Ha! iD normie problems. JOSM users already have those kind of mapping tools through add-ons like Spline !

(Joking, no offense here, I applaud how you integrated such essential features to iD)

Très beau travail ! J’aurais presque envie de retourner au zoo local pour faire la même si j’étais pas aussi feignant et que la météo plus clémente.

Si je peux me permettre, je pense qu’il y a une erreur de clé pour le nom des espèces. Ceux-ci devraient entrer sous la clé :

species:fr=*

plutôt que name. Le must serait encore de lier à l’objet Wikidata avec un :

species:wikidata=*

pour être tout à fait exhaustif et favoriser l’automatisation de la traduction des infos (Ce qui n’est par exemple pas le cas sur le zoo de Berlin et qui m’empêche à la fois de savoir quelles espèces y sont et potentiellement d’ajouter l’attribut moi même si j’avais pas accès à des traducteurs en ligne).

Nice work. While the rendering may not be perfect yet, what I’d really love is an amusement park themed OpenStreetMap layer emphasing POI rather than infrastructure so that we can all see our areas as kids again.

Count me in.

I definitely need a tutorial for this kind of thing ! Let’s say to show the distance to the nearest parking in any area or other OSM entities.
