60853449 | about 7 years ago | Your edit looks good, I do have a couple of things I would like to point out though. When tracing building you can press the "s" key when the outline is selected, and this will square the corners. They look a lot better that way. Another thing is the address points. They are just there as a separate point because the buildings hadn't been traced yet, so after you add the address information to the building, you should delete the point. I had done that for some houses you mapped a different time which is why some of the houses didn't have an address node. Thanks for helping map.

60419185 | about 7 years ago | I noticed you tagged some nodes with highway=crossing, at the edge of the road. The way these should be mapped is with the highway=crossing node as the node where the road and the footway intersect. You can also tag the lines from where you stopped the footways to the other side with a footway=crossing tag.

60252601 | about 7 years ago | Hey Zamanry, I see that you tagged some driveways as highway=residential. That tagging is for residential streets. For a driveway you should tag it with highway=service, service=driveway, and usually access=private
|
59926631 | about 7 years ago | I got your message, since you said this was an accidental change I went ahead and put the node back. |
59948548 | about 7 years ago | Another thing is for houses they should be tagged as building=house if possible. |
59948548 | about 7 years ago | The houses added are very close to being square, but the corners are slightly off. When mapping buildings it's best to square them. This can be done by selecting the outline, right-clicking, and selecting the square icon.
|
59926631 | about 7 years ago | You moved this node way out of the way from where it should be. I'm going to guess that you acidentally moved it, but it is the only change in this changeset, so it seems it must have been intentional. What were you trying to do here?
|
59918135 | about 7 years ago | You have used the name tag on this node to describe the feature. The name tag should only be used for an actual name, which I'd guess this feature doesn't have. Some tags that might be better to use would be:
More info on tagging this can be found at osm.wiki/Tag:amenity=bicycle_repair_station The water fountain should be tagged as a separate node using, amenity=drinking_water with details at osm.wiki/Tag:amenity=drinking_water
|
59918059 | about 7 years ago | I noticed the areas on these tannis courts are not mapped square. You can do this by rightclicking on the outline after you have it traces, and the cooseing the square option.
|
59915837 | about 7 years ago | Most of these buildings are clearly houses, so they would be tagged better with building=house, than just the generic building=yes.
|
58905251 | over 7 years ago | Jaku103, no need to revert anything, there is nothing wrong with how you mapped things, (at least that I saw). I was just pointing out how you could maybe make your work a little better for not much more work. I hope I didn't come across as too forceful, I don't want to run you off, because if you look at the project we could use some help. |
58905251 | over 7 years ago | Oh, and additionally there are address nodes everywhere, if you could copy those into the building outlines that they belong to that would be really helpful as well. |
58905251 | over 7 years ago | A couple of notes about your edit. The houses you added are tagged as building=yes, but they could be better described by using building=house. similarly, with the garages behind them, they can be tagged as building=garage. And the gas station roof could be tagged as building=roof. Also, could you Include a description of what you did in the comment, in addition to the hashtag. It really helps other mappers when they come across your edits in the future.

58536952 | over 7 years ago | Mateusz, I agree that the addresses being mapped on the buildinging is better. but that does not mean it is the only way they can be mapped. To quote the wiki: osm.wiki/Addresses Addresses can be tagged with addr:housenumber=* and the other addr:* keys. Tags can be added to : * isolated nodes
The map in this area has very few building outlines rightnow, it's not like Europe here in the US. While I agree it's a good end goal to have all the buildings mapped with addresses on them that is a long ways off from happening. On top of that, the map has always been working on incrementally improving, it's not like mapping is an all or nothing thing. |
58736762 | over 7 years ago | at least one of the locations you edited in this edit has a wikipedia=en:arby's tag, since you are going through all these locations could you change that to a brand:wikipedia tag or remove it? |
58729218 | over 7 years ago | I see you have added lanes in the parking lot as highway=residential. This is the wrong tagging for this, you should be using highway=service, and where appropriate service=parking_aisle. The reason you have probably seen other service roads marked as residential streets is that there was a massive import from the census burue years ago, called TIGER. This import labeled anything it didn't understand as a residential road, and they are still being cleaned up today.

58388640 | over 7 years ago | Tex, The wording of the tags shouldn't change the usefulness of the data. It comes down to how it will be used. There are lots of tags that are rather confusing, and it comes down to how they get presented to the end user. for example if you view it on the standard map here the symbol is a pictogram of a boat ramp. here is one by me, osm.org/node/951074983. I think there should be a way of marking a boat ramp that is different from a normal slipway, and I'm actually going to write to the tagging mailing list and see if anyone has any ideas. |
58388640 | over 7 years ago | Tex, it looks to me like you might be confusing a slipway for a slip. A slip is an area on a dock or pier, whereas a slipway is where you put the boat in the water. As far as I can tell a boat ramp is just another name for a slipway, that is generally used to describe a simple slip that is nothing more than a ramp. The difference in terms might also be one of those American vs British English things. If you look at the bottom of the wiki page for leisure=slipway it shows examples just like the image you show. |
58464096 | over 7 years ago | This edit looks good. The only thing I see that you could add would be if you know more about the clinic you added. A name would be really nice, but if you have any of the other information that ID asks for that would be helpful. Although if you don't know this or can't get this information don't worry about it too much.

58463573 | over 7 years ago | Inktindy, I see you have made a few changesets here with the same comment. Would you be able to in the future use the comments to describe what you have changed? It really helps other mappers like myself know what you are doing when we map in the same areas later. For instance this changeset you moved a single node, but I can't tell why. |
