hi there, I don't see osm.org/way/586350679 on any imagery or GPS traces, is it a brand new road?

Hi there, thanks for mapping. When there are more than one building in an area please map them each individually, not as one huge building.

see these buildings for example osm.org/changeset/63615126#map=19/6.20551/7.07129

Thanks for mapping! You said this is a bridge and only has one lane, I think those are not correct so we'll fix them. You may want to ask your team lead for more help. Thank you!

Hi Danirazi, thanks for mapping. However you are adding these as land use, they should be buildings instead

63615126 almost 7 years ago

Thanks! it looks like they all still have name=building though, you should take that off

Thanks for mapping, however the names you're adding look like temporary things, or a reminder to yourself for when you are staying somewhere. OpenStreetMap is for permanent things, I would suggest if you wanted to add dates you export the data or use another map service with OSM as a base that you can annotate yourself. UMap is a great tool for example osm.wiki/UMap

Thanks for mapping! However you added a road that already existed, so there are duplicate roads now: osm.org/way/632495491#map=14/8.3524/-2.1381 -- and be aware of the road "classification" or road types. You tagged it as motorway, but motorway is a for a divided highway with controlled access, like an Interstate in the US. Here is more about road classifications: osm.wiki/Highway_Tag_Africa

If you have any questions feel free to ask me!

Thanks for mapping! When mapping buildings you should only add to the "name" field if you know what the building is called, and there is a proper name -- such as North School or McDonalds. In this case these are just buildings so probably they don't have names. Here is more about the Name tag osm.wiki/Names

Hello, you mapped this as a motorway, which is a divided highway with exit ramps. It probably should be an unclassified roads. Here is more osm.wiki/Highway_Tag_Africa

Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.

Hi, you mapped this as a primary_link - that is supposed to be from exit roads from primary roads. I think this is better as an unclassified road. Here is more about highway classifications Hi, it looks like you added a duplicate road here, it already exists, and added it as a motorway when it is probably a residential road. Here is more about highway classifications: osm.wiki/Highway_Tag_Africa

Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.

Hello, it looks like you created a building at this roundabout, is that really there? I see you cited ground survey but none of the imagery show it. osm.org/#map=22/6.400705317302275/1.8911584041585667 Thanks!

Gracias para mapear! Aunque, cuando mapeando edificios, debe añadir "building" en vez de "landuse=residential". Por favor dígame si tiene ud. preguntas. Gracias!

Hi, thanks for mapping. The name= field is for the actual name of the place, like "St. Joseph Church" or "McDonald's", not for a note. This information would be better as a note= -- although the owner of a building is not really needed for OpenStreetMap anyway, since it's often personal information. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Hi Mustafa, I noticed that you have changed this road (way 45097821) to trunk. Why do you think this should be trunk? The Highway Tag Africa guidelines suggest that it should be a primary or secondary.
osm.wiki/Highway_Tag_Africa

This appears to be more of an urban collector road that does not connect major cities, and therefore primary or secondary. In general, only the main roads that connect cities should be the highest classifications. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Looks great! Thank you for mapping, please keep it up!

62777366 almost 7 years ago

Thanks for mapping! Looks good, though make sure to split individual buildings and don't map multiple buildings as one

62777357 almost 7 years ago

Thanks for mapping! Don't forget to click the s on your keyboard though to square the corners of your buildings. We want to make sure they're all the right shape and most buildings will be rectangular or square
