That street name is absolutely wrong. A north designation is part street addresses, not the street itself.

Has construction started yet on any of what you added? Also Plains Court is wrong, that is a path park that does actually exist, but someone deleted the connection to Plains Blvd.

The address dataset from open.regina.ca is indeed odd. There are no streets that contain East. But the addresses for houses in certain areas may have an E in them, but it is before the street name not after it. ie: ### E Victoria Avenue. The common usage appears to be to have the E at the end of the address so I'll go with that.

The house addresses in OSM seem to be missing that part, and there are upwards of 12,000 addresses in need of updating.

The city has a dataset of all registered land parcels with the official addresses. I'll look through that and add the official_name tag to affected roads. Hopefully most apps also include alt_name & official_name when doing searches.

The East and West suffixes in Regina are a bit odd. Some of the city's official address sources use the, but there is not a single road sign in the entire city with East or West written on it.

My fav tool for straightening roads is the "L" key in JOSM. If you select a string of nodes pressing L will make a straight line of them, so you only need to align the first and last one. A huge help when alley intersections cause a road to start getting wavey. Just have to be careful to not accidentally select building or bus stop nodes.

School / playground zone roads should also have the tag below for outside school hours:
maxspeed:conditional=50 @ (17:00-07:00)

or maxspeed:conditional=30 @ (7:00-17:00), if maxspeed=50. There doesn't appear to be a preference for which way.

If you submit a request at: http://open.regina.ca/ there's a pretty good chance they will generate a dataset with all the speed limits / school & playground zones for the city.

The imagery used to add the roads is offset from the imagery used for the building footprints resulting in many buildings being placed on top of alleys. GPS traces of the area would be helpful in determining which imagery is correct.

Only the golf course outline itself should be tagged with leisure=golf_course. Adding it to all the other features such as fairways has created a huge mess of icons on the map.

No its not, it is permanently closed.

Is this Sask work being coordinated as part of a group? If so you should suggest that they use the Maxar imagery instead of Bing. The Bing imagery for rural areas is about 4 years old, and the Maxar imagery appears to be from 2019.

Adding more traffic lights :) There were another 4 or 5 intersections that were supposed to get lights this year, but were skipped due to the Victoria Ave project dragging on.

That might work. I never tried applying tracktype to anything other than a track.

76544264 over 5 years ago

Seems to me it would have better leaving the dirt roads as tracks. They are impassable when wet and not maintained in winter which is why I tagged them differently to help prevent people from getting stranded as I've seen people forced to abandon their vehicles and walk out.

I managed to get those pretty close from just my bicycle gps. Nice to see there is finally some updated rural satellite imagery. The bing stuff is probably 5 years old.

When I was adding admin boundaries to a few cities I used an Overpass Turbo query for a quick overview of which larger centers were missing them. The boundaries are usually admin level 8 so my query missed the existing Yorkton one set to level 6. I'll double check I didn't add any other duplicates.

Once and a while I'll look at the Regina area using the KeepRight validation tool to spot anything amiss. https://www.keepright.at/report_map.php?zoom=12&lat=50.3297&lon=-104.9713

The last editor of the way field doesn't necessarily indicate the user who introduced the problem.

I think for the close but no connect errors, where there shouldn't be a connection (such as parking aisles ending at a curb), a noexit=yes tag will satisfy the validator.

Too bad they only update the imagery inside the city. You can see the airbrushed border where it switches to older images, so no bypass. I can usually get the roads pretty close from my bike gps alone, parking lots are little less accurate.
