Hi Zarr, I just noticed one of the crossing you mapped looks like it is based on outdated imagery. It looks like the Esri World imagery is more up to date than the Bing imagery. I'm not good about checking this myself. I just wanted to identify it - hopefully it helps your mapping efforts. Thanks!

Check out the wiki page for mechanical edits: osm.wiki/Automated_edits

A good start would be to post on the Canada subforum of the OpenStreetMap community site: https://community.openstreetmap.org/c/communities/ca/95

I think the community would be supportive but I have never made a large edit like this so I don't know.

Welcome to OpenStreetMap and thanks for contributing! This is all great info that I see you have added. Let me know if you have any questions.

There is a great website that shows just vegetarian restaurants using OSM, not sure if you have seen it:

Yes, thanks. These are just misspellings.

My mistake. Thanks for fixing this.

Hi feathered_ouul, thanks for updating the map!

Quick note: some of these 'crossing=marked' crossings are actually crossings with pedestrian signals so would be marked as 'crossing=traffic_signals'. For example: osm.org/node/3478231532

Also, I noticed a couple of crossings you marked as 'crossing=informal' when they would really be 'crossing=unmarked'. Informal crossings do exist but if they are at an intersection, they would just be unmarked.

Thanks!
Joel

Hi Enderbyte. The highway should not be split if there is no physical barrier between the two directions. None of the aerial of street level imagery shows a barrier - has this been added recently? Otherwise we may want to revert this changeset.

Hi Darren, it looks like you changed the address but not the location. Should the node for this amenity be relocated to Comox Street?

Thanks, I wasn't aware of this. I added some additional explanation on the forum.

Hi Matt, just trying to understand what you were trying to fix here. It looks like you changed the building=fire_station to amenity=fire_station, which is incorrect.

Thanks,
Joel

Okay that makes sense. Thanks.

Thanks for adding these businesses. Welcome to OpenStreetMap!

Hi ocwl, for my learning: why split the road segments like these were?

I have a bookmark set to osm.org/history#map=12/49.2493/-123.0186

I regularly review the changes in the Vancouver area and I'm not just commenting on your work. It may feel like I am only commenting on your work but you can ask any other frequent editor in the area and they will know I have commented on their work. TBH, I find reviewing the local edits helpful for me to learn how to improve how I map and helpful for me to coordinate with how/what other mappers are doing. After all, OSM is a community project so it makes sense that the community has some dialogue.

Thanks for repairing this. I only realized I was doing this after I had finished a few.

Cool OSM/wiki tool! I will be checking this out in more detail.

Nice work! Thank you for adding these.

A tip: once you have drawn a building, you can select it and press the Q key to 'square up' any angles that are close to 90 degrees. It cleans up how the buildings look since most will have 90 degree corners.

Hi Muzzle, I don't see how these are parks. Can you help me understand? I think this has been mistagged.

Thanks,
Joel

Thanks for updating it. I like to check out what other people are doing to try to avoid rework. I have improved my mapping a lot by learning how other people do it.
