161910618 | 6 months ago | Hi, and thanks for your contributions! In this changeset, what is your source for changes? Did you notice that the highway you added the name for already has a ref= tag? It's my understanding that unless signed as such, this type of attribute is best represented by ref=. |
161701620 | 6 months ago | Thanks for looking into this! I think I found a dataset from BLM that contains the relevant polygon: https://gbp-blm-egis.hub.arcgis.com/maps/df026e4da520481ea929cf4b400d8266/about I'm happy to import it, but am a little unsure as to license compatibility. The "license" copy on that page is not very helpful... |
158474664 | 7 months ago | Tcarlisle, thanks so much for your detailed response! And sorry it's taken me so long to respond. Your explanation makes sense to me! |
160010029 | 8 months ago | Thanks for your contributions!! :) |
160047719 | 8 months ago | osm.org/node/83327020
Also, please submit your changes in one area before moving on to the next. That makes it a little easier for other contributors to review your work and answer questions. Thanks for your contributions! |
160100999 | 8 months ago | Nice catch! |
160137816 | 8 months ago | Howdy! I reviewed your changes here. Thanks - your addition looks great! The attraction tag you added is a fine fit for this. Based on my research of this poi, I think tourism=artwork is slightly more descriptive. I changed it to that. However, if you disagree, I'd love to hear your opinion. Also, if you have local knowledge about this feature that is really valuable and we should try and capture that! Let me know if you have any questions about this or mapping in general. Thanks again for your contribution, and welcome to OpenStreetMap! |
157018446 | 9 months ago | I came through here the other day, and saw that there are no physical barriers separating most of the turn lanes in this area. Specifically I'm referring to things like this: osm.org/way/1317734950 But, I could still be wrong. Ezra, are you sure there's a physical barrier separating the turn lanes specifically on and off of 1100 South? |
149543011 | 9 months ago | Regarding Organic Maps' options for street name, that app is likely searching nearby roads for available names, but only parsing name=, which is indeed just 200 East. It should be checking for name:full or name:prefix when matching addresses. Here's a link to the page that describes the way addresses are laid out in Cache Valley and much of Utah: osm.wiki/Utah/Naming_Conventions |
149543011 | 9 months ago | Sorry I never got back to you on this. Originally, you changed addr:street from "South 200 East" to "200 East". Typically when rendering an address, OSM data consumers will do addr:housenumber + addr:street. Since housenumber is (correctly) 15, it makes sense to have the full street name, including "south" prefix, so that it's rendered as "15 South 200 East" instead of "15 200 East". Hope that makes sense! And sorry for the delay. |
158835579 | 9 months ago | Hi, did you see my comment on your other changeset? osm.org/changeset/158468386 |
158796954 | 9 months ago | Hi, and welcome to OpenStreetMap! Thanks for your contributions! |
158801490 | 9 months ago | One more note, just to clarify, it's absolutely fine (and necessary) to have overlapping areas. In fact, this is great because you can pick a spot and have a hierarchy of areas that encompass it, eg landuse area, city area, county, state, country, etc. All overlapping. |
158801490 | 9 months ago | All that being said, nice job on getting the hang of multipolygon creation! :) |
158801490 | 9 months ago | Hello again! Looking at this changeset, you created a multipolygon for the Wellsville mountain range and added the forest areas as "inner" members. While this is valid as far as relation semantics, it doesn't make sense since the mountain range feature encloses (and includes) the forests. It's not like when you enter the forest area you leave the mountain range, right? Hope that makes sense. Multipolygons with "inner" areas are to be used for things like a parking lot that wraps around a building, where when you enter the building you also leave the parking lot. |
158725249 | 9 months ago | Fortunately iD makes it really easy to create them. Here's how:

158725249 | 9 months ago | Hi Ezra. Thanks for your contributions so far! One suggestion I have is that you look into multipolygon relations. I saw that you added some features that are best represented as areas with voids within them, and you used a workaround with the little sliver crack on one side. Here's more information on multipolygons: osm.wiki/Relation:multipolygon |
158468386 | 9 months ago | Hi, and thanks for your contributions here and throughout Utah! One suggestion/request I have for you is that camp pitch numbers (and most numbered things) should be ref= instead of name=. More info: osm.wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dcamp_pitch |
158474664 | 9 months ago | Just to be clear, I don't think features should be blindly added, either - whether that's by copying USGS topo map or strava or whatever. I get the sense that some of these were added like that. However, in my opinion, if there's a visible trail that can be walked, it does indeed belong in OSM. |
158474664 | 9 months ago | Hi, and thanks for your contributions! In this case, were you able to verify that the trails you deleted really don't exist? What's your source for the deletions? Just because something isn't maintained or sanctioned doesn't mean it is non-existent. By leaving real features in OSM and tagging them appropriately (such as informal=yes or access=no) we can also prevent later unaware contributors from re-adding them anew (often with just highway=path...) |
