Please use Mapbox Satellite imagery if you are going to trace buildings in the Quad Cities. It is the highest quality imagery available and is also aligned.

Also, per the wiki, the name tag should not be added on holes. The ref tag makes it redundant. osm.wiki/Tag:golf%3Dhole

You deleted a fairway I had already drawn completely accurate and replaced it with a lower quality version. Why?

If you are going to modify a feature that already exists, you should just move the nodes around. Deleting something removes the associated edit history.

* I was referencing the Cedar Creek Timber. Also you shouldn't include the Jefferson CCB in the name. That would be operator="..." You shouldn't use all capital letters unless the item is actually all capitalized. Names shouldn't be abbreviated, they should be written in full.

That should be tagged as leisure=nature_reserve or boundary=protected_area. Landuse=recreation_ground is incorrect tagging.

Ok. Just a heads up that "Google" is a phrase that gets automatically flagged in QA applications. That is why I saw your changeset.

I would recommend against using Bing Imagery in Cedar Rapids. Esri World Imagery is of higher quality, more recent, and more aligned then Bing.

Here is a list of changesets which are also essentially what you are reverting here. I believe they were all generated with Microsoft Building Footprints. It is evident the user did not manually adjust each building they imported, since many of the buildings do not match their actual footprints. Not sure if it is worth reverting them? Or if it is even possible because of conflicts?

The satellite imagery is up to date, you simply didn't make the effort of looking at other available imagery. You'll probably want to use Esri World Imagery. I also have to point out that what you marked as a highway=unclassified is actually highway=service. Also you attached a road to a boundary, you should only attach boundaries to boundaries.

Here is a map with bridge clearances across the state. Looks like driving through Davenport would be the hardest for a semi. https://iowadot.gov/mvd/motorcarriers/clearance.pdf

Any idea why they switched it to at-grade? Wouldn't that make the flow rate of traffic slower?

The way should be tagged as either a parking aisle or a service road. It is not a living street.

Some things that imply it is not a living street: it is not named, it is not a public road, it doesn't go anywhere. Living streets basically don't exist in the US.

Things that imply it is a parking aisle: it is on private property, there are parking spots on either side, the road doesn't lead anywhere only to more parking

Why would those road spurs deserve the tag highway=proposed? That particular road was built nearly 20 years ago. The highway=proposed k/v pair is supposed to be used for roads that have been platted, but where construction has yet to start.

OpenStreetMap doesn't sound like the right application for your use case. Maybe Leaflet? You should make a post here, https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewforum.php?id=10 . Ensure that you thoroughly describe all of the details involved. I am sure someone can give you a recommendation of a good way to accomplish what you want to do.

93087389 almost 5 years ago

So a few notes:
1. I would recommend you stick with using the iD editor. This is the easiest to use and makes it hard to mess things up.
2. For imagery, it looks like Esri Clarity is the best in your location. In the iD editor, you can change the imagery you use by pressing 'B'. Select "Esri World Imagery (Clarity) Beta".
3. If you are adding roads on the plant grounds, you should use the "service road" preset. The highway=service will indicate the priority (low) and will cause it to render on the map.
4. The map uses slippy tiles for rendering. As soon as you upload a changeset, the database will reflect the changes you made. This means a routing service would instantly be able to use added roads. It may take a few days for the rendered map to reflect changes you make.

Could you possibly try and further clarify your use case? You are trying to add the paths forklift drivers navigate around the plant? If they work at the factory then why do they need directions?

Can you outline what exactly you are trying to accomplish? It seems you have made a large number of edits on this particular road, changing the tags each time.

It looks like user, radissonhotelsspark, is the person going around adding the address information and changing the name tag for this hotel brand. Based on their username, it seems they are editing for Radisson. Per the Wikipedia page, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radisson_Hotel_Group, "Country Inn & Suites" rebranded to become "Country Inn & Suites by Radisson" in January 2018.
