Sharp Turns onto Ramps | Excellent, excellent! Looking at my area, I see some sharp turns highlighted; is there a way to get to them from your map (other than “open up the same area in JOSM and look for cues”)? |

chodniky a ulice na sidlisku Hajik, Zilina | Co se týče toho parkování, mrkni na osm.wiki/Cs:Tag:amenity%3Dparking (slovenská verze zatím není). Pokud to není vyloženě parkovací plocha, ale jen třeba kus trávníku, na kterým se parkuje tak nějak ze zvyku, to bych jako parkoviště nemapoval. |

Thought experiment: What if values had no keys? |

Hello | Hi :) |
|||
Much welcomed DigitalGlobe imagery | Did manage to somehow bork my Java apps in a similar way on Kubuntu 16.04, most notably JOSM; working around this in JOSM by saving the .joz session, closing JOSM and starting it again (which resolves the issue). I suspect it has something to do with modifier keys becoming “stuck” (I think I triggered it by dragging with Alt + window snapping in Plasma), but it didn’t worry me enough to investigate further (only happened a couple of times). |

small river | @michalfabik: That seems to be an OSMAnd renderer issue; the map you’re linking to seems to be correct. |
|||
small river | Hello, I tried opening the location in JOSM and the reason became apparent: this segment was missing the For more details on river mapping, this might be of interest: osm.wiki/Tag:waterway%3Driverbank |

železnice | Super, díky moc. Já mezitím koukal do OSM wiki, a denomination=catholic sice není špatně, ale taky doporučují přesnější roman_catholic. osm.wiki/Key:denomination#Christian_denominations |

Hello, OSM. | Hello and welcome :) (If you like StreetComplete, you could perhaps like MapSwipe or MapRoulette.) |
|||
železnice | Super :) Mohl bych poprosit, zda by šlo tagovat denomination=roman_catholic ? (Zrovna něco podobného řeším vedle v CZ, a denomination=catholic máme hromadu - i v místech, kde není jasný, jestli jde o ŘKC, o řeckokatolíky, nebo dokonce o starokatolíky - čímž je v tom nejasno a taky se na to blbě staví query do Overpass API) Díky. |

2000 | Congratulations! How long did that take you? |
|||
Louvre indoor | Wow! Grand! |
|||
Specificity vs Readability | Different people care about different details. Lane attributes? Destination signs? Maxspeed? Lit? Wheelchair access? Stairs with stroller ramps? “I don’t need this” != “this is useless”. |
|||
Mapped in Every Country of the World | Whoa, cool! How long did that take you, from start to finish? |
|||
Transcontinental highway interconnecting Brazil to Germany | Well, Level0 is a powertool in the extreme: No safety checks, no abstraction beyond the OSM API, anything goes. It does not encourage destructive or misleading edits, unlike the-app-that-shall-not-be-named. |

"Welcome-to-new-mappers" program in the Netherlands comes to an end. | @pnorman: Since the editor in maps.me launched, I still have to receive the first response from any maps.me user. Nothing, zero, nada. IMNSHO the app encourages personal notetaking into public data; for the record, that is not good. |

Pokemon Go ==> OSM Go (EN) | Beware raw eggs and raw data. If you ingest the former, you’ll get sick. If you ingest the latter…well, just ask Maps.me developers how many people are getting upset at the strange edits their users contribute. In other words, verification is - surprisingly - the hardest part. |
|||
Latest Spam | Well, the question is - what to do? CAPTCHAs? I fear that the spam is made by mechanized humans, so traditional methods wouldn’t be effective. |

Why Search and Rescue Organizations Must Map Out Cellular Phone Towers in OpenStreetMap | If lost, specifically hunting for BTS (and thus cellphone signal) can actually kill you. Case in point: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-36389383 - hiker went up, up, up, figuring there must be cellphone signal somewhere. |

Getting started | Hello and welcome! The edits look nice; may I have some suggestions on extra tags? The streets could use a surface=* tag (asphalt?), and perhaps lanes=* (2 is the usual count - one for each direction). As for buildings, could you add building:levels=* ? It’s a very useful hint e.g. for OsmBuildings. I’d also recommend wrapping the area in landuse=residential - see this one “next door”: osm.org/way/316156882 Cheers, Piskvor |
