Turn lane (how to)

I recently discovered a neat tool that help fixing highways by displaying lanes, turn lanes and destinations, I thought it would be relevant to mention it here :

It's elegant they said. It will be eaiser to change street names they said.

(I meant without associatedStreet, silly me not reading my post before posting)

I’m not sure if this post is just for the laughs, but just in you are trying to get a point across :

The name would have been duplicated even more, so the problem would have been the same…

Erreur de donnée(navigation)

Bonjour, n’hésitez pas à déposer des notes sur la carte du site osm.org directement, c’est un peu plus facile pour les mappeurs de corriger les erreurs.

Voting is bullshit

@imagic : Administrative boundaries are hard to map, so we should not map them badly, even if information is readily available in order to map them correctly? Some data are not trivial in the real world, and they still need to be mapped.

As you said : “it might be a horror to use for any consumer, but it is still valid data”. If a data is not usable by data consumers, it have almost zero value to OSM. OSM is not an atlas, read by humans. The OSM database must be parsable in order to be of use.

If we go down that path, why defining a format for opening hours, as humans could parse it, and why create specialized tags when we could only use name=* as it would be still readable by humans ?

Let’s not forget that OpenStreetMap is a database. It comes with responsibilities in order to deliver it’s true potential.

@chilly, I think it’s a circular problem. Data consumers try to do something with the tags already used, and people, seeing that a certain tagging scheme is used, so they continue tagging stuff using that.

The problem is that often tags were introduced with low detail & complexity in mind, which regularly hinders data completeness of a feature (I’m thinking highway=bus_stop vs Public Transport) As described in the first paragraph, people would never go out of their way and use more complete or precise tags, as long as data consumers does not force them to use better tagging scheme.

The only way people could be encouraged to do so would be with votes leading to approved tagging schemes, but sadly, taginfo stats often wins over well-defined tags.

Merci bien pour ses astuces je dormirais moins bête ce soir !

What am I doing wrong, re: using the embed feature (its not working)

It seems not, I just posted the link for reference.

Here is a example of a working iframe, just taken from the “HTML export” from the OSM frontpage

I think you can have more luck here.

If it’s a website bug, it can be reported on the OpenStreetMap-Website Github issues

Full geometry ahead!

Thank you for this new iteration of Overpass API, looking forward to experiment with out geom

Si t’était un minimum intelligent tu verrais que les liens postés dans les journaux utilisateurs ont un attribut rel=”nofollow”, ce qui veut dire que ces posts de SEO ne servent strictement à rien.

Félicitation, il reste tellement à faire à Lyon, surtout quand les contributeurs expérimentés continuent de tagger les arrêts avec l’ancien schéma…
