Hey Gavin! I'm wondering what the "Sport Outpost" nodes are that you mapped in this changeset. Maybe we could find some more descriptive tags for them. Thanks!

I did this from memory (I've visited the site a couple of time now), but I'm sure the geometry will need to be refined.

Thank you for your contributions!

Thank you for contributing to OSM at W&M, by the way! I would be very happy to discuss this or other mapping efforts with you further. Feel free to find my contact info in my bio.

Unless this area has been renovated since I last surveyed (and please forgive me if it has), I don't think leisure=outdoor_seating is an appropriate tag for what is here. [0] I don't think this is a seating area in the spirit of that tag, which is usually used for outdoor seating areas outside of a restaurant or similar establishment. Here there are just a couple of benches on a gravel surface. I think it would be preferable to map the benches as amenity=bench nodes, in line with other benches on campus. I think the outdoor_seating tag would be more appropriate, for example, on the Sadler Terrace.

Thanks for getting this done!

Hi there,

Thank you for putting the work in to map the Richmond Slave Trail. Today I converted it into a route relation in changeset #155050533. I would be happy to discuss this change and/or ways we can better map this trail. Cheers!

I used a fancy GPS unit borrowed from the William & Mary Center for Geospatial Analysis to complete this work.

The entire weekend's work can be downloaded, see this file:

Some of the notes may be difficult for others to read, and some of the things I mapped were from memory.

This is the second of two large edits I made to Belle Isle, following a weekend of walking into spiderwebs while looking down at my phone.

This looks great, thanks for your contribution and welcome to the sidewalks project! You correctly tagged unmarked/marked/signaled crossings, and added many surface tags. I know how long that stuff can take :D

If you're ever interested in connecting with other mappers in Richmond, we'd love to have you at MapRVA, a biweekly meetup. Feel free to message me for details or find us online.
