How to find the changeset details of any OSM map feature

Thanks mmd, updated!

RoboSat ❤️ Tanzania

Can’t believe its so simple, thank you for the tutorial!

Vector Tiles for iD Editor : Playing with mvt and pbf files.

This is an amazing extension! Thank you for the work.

Rendering non-default language in OSM-Carto standard map

Wonderful to see maps in Tamil! Even the city and local government don’t have maps in the local languages, and they would be really excited to see this.

Maps Update: April 17 → May 13

Thank you for the data bulletin!

When OpenStreetMap met Mapbox-GL : 🍚IDLY-GL

This is so cool, Kushan! This makes it so much easier to browse the OSM data compared to using the default ‘data’ mode in the website or any editor.

The OSM project has always maintained that this is a data project and not a visual map project. Idly actually realizes this for the first time, making it easy for anyone to touch and feel what OSM is about.

Maps Update: 17th of April

Its crazy to know what happens in just a day on OSM. More frequent bulletins please?

Peru’s response to redaction

Fantastic and inspiring how the Peru community got together to repair the broken map!

A few new firsts

Amazing work! Sorry about your phone though :/

The effect of the new iD release on restrictions

Nice analysis. Goes to show the impact any feature on osm.org has on the data quality of the project.

Been following the development of this feature on iD, its an amazing effort by Bryan to get this out. Thank you from everyone!

Wonderful, the bbox is one of my most used filters and searching makes it so much more convenient. Thank you Wille, Amisha and Tridip!

Changeset viewer plugin for JOSM

This is so cool, just installed it via the plugins list! The OSM QA tools are getting better and better, thank you for this work!

Non-English keywords in English iD interface.

@Dzertanoj @nzan

Before we go on making assumptions about a country with 1.3 billion people, lets celebrate the fact that the system is open enough for the actual users in the country to make improvements as needed. Thank you @bhousel!

Non-English keywords in English iD interface.

As Wikipedia says, “Garbhagriha” is a Sanskrit word for a part of a Hindu temple (not even for a temple itself)

Good catch, have never heard the term in common use in India for a temple. Have submitted improvements to the list which should fix this.

Descriptions of OSM tags in any language using Wikidata

There are plenty of cases where the Wikipedia definition deviates from the OpenStreetMap concept.

Wikidata is flexible enough to allow anyone to create a new concept if it does not overlap with an existing one, so its fairly easy to correct the definition in such situations to align almost perfectly with the OSM concept.

This is amazing, thank you Wille!

Viewing OpenStreetMap tiles in GL

loads vector tiles from tiles.mapbox.com in addition to the raster tiles from tile.openstreetmap.org

Thats right, haven’t figured out how to have just a blank style and add a TMS layer. One would not need a API key then.

Viewing OpenStreetMap tiles in GL

OpenLayers is definitely an alternative and have added that. Not sure if leaflet can do this, do share an example if you find it.

Creating a GL stylesheet of osm-carto will be quite a challenge, the label placement/collision in GL does not seem as mature as mapnik. Still might be a interesting project to try out.

Hi Friends

Nice work, and welcome to OSM!

Mapping forest outlines

Nice work! Admittedly, many of those ugly large forests were traced by me using landsat over 6 years ago, nice to see many of them getting updated!
