Are you aware that the boundaries for Steger and Crete are now overlapping and intertwined on the map? There are some places that are in both counties/cities(?) and some that are in neither. Check around node 387582757 for an example.
I have no idea what it should look like so I'm hesitant to fix it. Hopefully you know better.

That is very cool! Thanks for getting back @bradypett.

Hi @bradypett, I've noticed a flurry of golf course mapping over the last week from several different mappers. I'm curious as to how that happened? Is there some organization that has reached out to have people do the mapping? Or is it just a coincidence?
Nothing wrong with what you're doing. It just peeked my curiosity.

Hi @Kent Shaffer. osm.org/way/686647046 got left in a weird, figure-8 shape in your edits. Can you fix it up? I'm not exactly sure what it should look like so I can't do it myself. Thanks.

Hi @mikebranca. Thanks for doing all of the hard work of adding golf courses to the maps. It's looking very cool.
I wanted to point out a slight mapping error though so that you can avoid it in the future. There have been a couple of ways were a golf cart goes down a little spur and can turn around (I'm assuming). It's important to stop the current way when this happens and start a new way. Basically, you should never click a second time on a node from the same way you are currently drawing.
I've fixed up the cases where I've noticed this happening, so I wouldn't worry about going back and double checking what you've already done. Just keep it in mind for the future.
If you want to look at my fix, you can see it here: osm.org/changeset/70142737.
Again, thanks for all of your hard work!

I'm removing ways 688434685 and 688434686. They seem really out of place and wrong and don't have any tags associated with them. Please let me know if my removing of them is the wrong action to take.

Why does osm.org/way/688757342 only cover half of the fairway?

69938949 over 6 years ago

I'd love to see iD fix this bug with creating multiple points (6452261176 and 6452262387) at the same location.

I commented on a similar bug in iD:
https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues/4433#issuecomment-490125720

I'm leaving this unfixed for a few days so the iD folk can have a look.

Hi Lake S, do you have local knowledge on this particular school? It looks like covered breezeways(walkways) connected the outer buildings to the large center building. If that's the case, they shouldn't all be drawn together with a single line, but instead be left as separate buildings. (There is probably a way to map the covered walkways as well, but I'm not too familiar with it.)

BTW, I was impressed with a high schooler having so many edits on OSM. Congrats and good luck with your future engineering plans.

Were you able to use satellite imagery for this or were you just guessing? The imagery I looked at shows just the start of the construction, but it is rotated about 30 degrees from your outlines. The buildings are mostly North/South.

Hi CoasterRoyalty, first off, thanks for helping to enhance OSM. I'll be the first to admit that I don't know about mapping golf courses specifically, but I'm seeing some potential problems and wanted to reach out to you and see what's up. The first problem is that you have several areas of the same type that are overlapping. For example:
osm.org/way/684203341, osm.org/way/684203340, and osm.org/way/684203344 are all overlapping and are marked as "golf=rough". Is there a reason that these aren't all drawn as one large area instead?

Second, is a little more complex and might be too much for a new mapper to tackle, but something to keep in the back of your mind. You have an area drawn as golf=rough, and then inside that you have another area drawn as golf=fairway. The outer area says that everything inside of it is rough. But then the inner area now implies that it is *both* rough and fairway. The advanced feature to handle this is called a multipolygon. Something to look into if you're bored and want to expand your mapping abilities.

You added an email address instead of a website. Was that intentional? There is an "email" key that you can use instead of "website". See osm.wiki/Key:email for more information.

69609760 over 6 years ago

Hi @reidpelton. I wouldn't be so quick to blame yourself. Maybe it was the tooling that created the problem.

I'm not sure which other ways of yours I've corrected. I'd happily go over them and see if I can make it clear what I fixed.

For this particular one, use this tool (https://overpass-api.de/achavi/?changeset=69609760) and zoom into West Karcher Road and Caldwell Boulevard. You'll see a red line that is what I deleted in my change. Looks like somehow the way deviated out to that stoplight in the middle of the road and then back to its original path. It looks like that node was always part of the way, but whatever alignment change you made to it caused it to show up on a report I look at often.

Hope that helps. Again, let me know if there are others you want me to look into.

Hi @tompkinsjs. I noticed that your recent edit of osm.org/way/549172718 messed up the scrub multipolygon and thought you might want to go back and fix it up properly.

69408738 over 6 years ago

Hi @chachafish. I see there are a lot of duplicated nodes (two nodes in different ways that share the same exact location) after you are done squaring buildings. I'm surprised since JOSM has a validation for this, but maybe your workflow is somehow skipping that validation.

A couple of example nodes in case you need to look into it:
osm.org/node/1613620267
and
osm.org/node/1613621632

They are showing up in OSM Inspector if that helps discover which ones are duplicated.

Thanks!

By "highway network" he means you have to be able to get from the nearest road into the parking lot. For example, "Honey Creek Drive" is tagged as "highway=residential". Just make sure it is connected to something like that. Don't think of highway being a 4 lane interstate highway. In OSM terms, roads are all highways, just of different types.

68219075 over 6 years ago

Looks like I did the Northeastern parking lot from this changeset as an example to show you how it should be done. But I left the rest hoping you would go back and practice.
