SD Mapman's Comments

137570494 | almost 2 years ago | I guess it depends where the access road for the data center will be, and how that construction will shake out. Another thing to consider is how the preferred editing software handles the tags, for instance adding addresses in iD is much less user-friendly without a name= tag. Maybe one of us should start a discussion on the wiki or the community forums so that the mixed messages shake out, as it seems the at least two of the most-used editors lean towards "everything needs a name= tag" while official name= policy is signed only. |
137570494 | almost 2 years ago | So this is the name addresses use (go to https://tools.usps.com/zip-code-lookup.htm, type in "56th" and "68514"), should a road name not be put in the map because the local government won't put up a sign? I guess I added it in because so that it's in the OSM database, which other sources end up using for navigation. Maybe using this tag (osm.wiki/Key:name:signed) instead would work better, as then the name is in the database for other sites to use but the fact it isn't signed is still noted. Plus I swore I saw signage the last time I visited Lincoln but I could be misremembering. |
136574643 | about 2 years ago | I think you meant to add a node. Reverting back to S. Minnesota. |
135831915 | about 2 years ago | Should these be mapped as such, since they're only Census Bureau definitions and not actual civil boundaries? Maybe boundary=census for the unorganized territories? |
135715651 | about 2 years ago | Weird, iD must have duplicated all the Lake County edits I did (said I had unsaved changes when I guess I didn't), I'll check it over |
114664993 | almost 3 years ago | FYI the right-angle alignment of 50 and 46 is the correct one (field-checked in 2021), I've changed it back but just letting you know so we don't get into an edit war over something that's just taking a while to update in certain imagery layers |
109967724 | almost 4 years ago | good work young padawan |
68966731 | over 6 years ago | Also St. George UT is ~80,000... |
25508861 | over 6 years ago | If there is a hard and fast definition for the US that I don't know about, I will gladly go through SD and retag as necessary. I know the state like the back of my hand. |
25508861 | over 6 years ago | The wiki doesn't give a hard and fast definition of what should be a city and what should be a town, but seems to say that it's based more on what the local area is like. Spearfish is, believe it or not, the 10th largest city in South Dakota, and it's the 2nd most important city after Rapid in the greater Black Hills area. |
25508861 | over 6 years ago | It's one of the primary cities in the area. I based it on the relative importance to the local area more than population; that's why Gillette was also labeled a city. |
68569968 | over 6 years ago | Will add the others when I have more time |
62323150 | almost 7 years ago | This should work for now, they routed the bike path along the bridge with the Exit 14 redo and I haven't been able to get an accurate trace of it yet |
55536254 | over 7 years ago | No problem |
55536254 | over 7 years ago | FYI these were already there as relations (I think); am cleaning up now |
49851018 | about 8 years ago | My general rule is to stick business interstates as primary based on the route marker. However, feel free to change it if you have more immediate knowledge (which it sounds like you do). |
38042720 | over 8 years ago | It was probably due to large inaccuracy in the node placement (and the fact that it wasn't a publicly accessible road); at that point it almost becomes easier to delete and replace. |
40005078 | about 9 years ago | You're the local though, so I'll go with you. |
40005078 | about 9 years ago | I don't know, it's a bypass type road, and bypass type roads are usually trunk. |
37082424 | about 9 years ago | I'm working on the two-lanes; but I think the 36 (Pony Express Highway) should stay because other maps (Rand McNally, MapQuest, etc.) have it as freeway. |
