Hey there! Just wanted to give you a heads up that using motorcar=no is only for roads where there's a sign that says cars aren't allowed. For narrow roads, it's better to use highway=path and add a width tag. You can learn more about this in this forum post: https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/re-classifying-service-alley-and-other-narrow-roads-chiang-mai/97397. Thanks!

Hey there! I noticed that you made a change to a node in Germany while editing in Vietnam. Was this a mistake or unintended?

hi Summittra, what is the meaning of your motorcar=no? is the road too narrow for cars? or is there a sign saying no cars are allowed ? Please refer to this thread for more info: https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/re-classifying-service-alley-and-other-narrow-roads-chiang-mai/97397

Hey, thanks a lot for your amazing work! Just a quick heads-up, in Thailand, the Bing imagery can sometimes be outdated or misaligned. Although it doesn't seem to be a problem in this particular area, it's always a good idea to double-check with other sources such as Maxar or Mapbox. Keep up the good mapping!

Hey Dave,

Usually, I add source:name=sign when I see a sign at the entrance/exit of a village, but to be honest, I don't really remember this location and didn't upload any ground truth photos to Mapillary at the time (which I do now every time). So, it's quite possible that what you mentioned is correct. Please feel free to change it.

On a side note, during that trip, we were amazed to find that most of the mapped tracks between settlements had been recently paved. There should be many more of these further west, but we were running out of time. As you found out, many of these may have refs and can be upgraded to tertiary.

Cheers,
Julien

thanks for the update. I moved the gate on the adjacent highway and out of the junction. for more info, see: osm.wiki/Key:barrier#How_to_map_barrier_nodes

what is the source for the access tags (motorcar=yes, motorcycle=no) ? I do not see any signs on Mapillary.

if the road is indeed a dead-end, please do not forget to add `noexit=yes` on the last node. For more info, see https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/confirming-unconnected-highways/96522

Hi AndrewCNX, these roads were correctly classified as per the Thailand wiki. They are not significant thru-traffic, nor their main purpose is to provide access to permanent residences. Service roads do not automatically imply private access and can be public without an access=* tag. Since we had already an exchange last year about this exact topic, and you seem to still not agree with the general consensus, I invite you again to take note of the Thailand Wiki definitions or share your concerns with the community. Until then, I have reverted your changes. Thank you for your understanding.

thanks for the addition :) if you know the road is passable by standard city cars, routers will find it useful to have a smoothness tag (intermediate or bad).

Welcome to OpenStreetMap. A few tips for beginners like you:
- start mapping close to your home. do not map things far away you are not familiar with.
- Make small changes one time a time and save
- Focusing on adding new things (missing buildings, roads)…
- Write a better description e.g. added building
- Learn about different imagery and alignments
- If you are not sure, it’s always better to not map it.
- Read the openstreetmap wiki
- Ask questions on the community site

it's always better in English, but you can also do in Thai. e.g. "add bus stops". Note also that we are not supposed to add data directly from google :( but if you have local knowledge, you did a survey, or know about them, you can add the data.

Hi. I changed the merged noexit=yes node to a barrier=gate. noexit=yes should be only used on disconnected road segments physically separated by wall/fence. Gates however should be used as nodes of existing road segments. More info: https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/how-to-tag-noexit-yes-nodes/9095

Morning. why would you remove English name translations? These "name:en" are important and should not be removed. If the translations are incorrect, please simply replace their values.
