Entering buildings REALLY quickly in JOSM, and how to make them ready for streetcomplete housenumber tagging | Is there a tool to interpolate address numbers on nodes? I know you can do it with the terracer tool, but I prefer to use nodes for house numbering. My approach is drawing a big rectangle, building=terrace, then put the nodes to represent individual address. (same result, lighter maps) |

Weird day in JOSM | Klang valley area in east Selangor, and a spot or two at south eastern tip of Johor. Validator starting hanging doing the crossing boundary check (if I am not mistaken, check no 7). Every single box is checked in the validator settings. |
|
sick of garages | It is actually. Just write anything related to OSM, otherwise it becomes useless spam. |
|
Is it good faith, or... | Everybody is putting “local knowledge” as their source. Locals in India and USA maybe, but that is not relevant. |
|
Never ending edits | I did, here and there… But there are hoardes of em! :) We’ll probably figure out something later on how to proceed with these issues. In the mean time, I’ll leave DWG out for the more serious googly type issues. Thanks for you input. This is SPARTAA!! hehe |
|
iD editor should "nudge" mappers into best tagging practices | IMO, highways should have the assumed tagged value of paved asphalt. That’s the norm. We should tag the surface value when the condition is out of ordinary. In my opinion that is…. |
|
Is there a way to keep history on all segment while "split 3 part of highway" in JOSM ?? | Well, maybe a revision would be nice. from forum discussion |
|
Survey points etc | Hail our long past overlords! :) We still inherit your bureaucracy, in that it is difficult to get any open data from the government. Sprinkle in some nervousness in the name of national security, things might stay the same in the foreseeable future. Things are changing though. Slow and steady as they say. Cheers! |

Where are all the highway areas gone? | Pardon my ignorance, what is it suppose to mean/represent? |
|
Landuse/landcover in OSM and a polygon highway data ?? | Shouldn’t she be asking the authorities for this data instead? Getting data from OSM contributors have so many accuracy issues, whether the classification or the correct boundaries. Even the small town that I lived in has a fully GIS mapped information in store at the municipal’s office which is located in district’s capital almost an hour away. I was quite surprised with that discovery since the road names in my town are not even complete, yet there’s this complete map and land ownership info available at their finger tips (local district). Local governance yo.. Anyways, a side story there. Ask her to inquire with the city, her job could probably be many times easier. |

Ajaibnya semua nama jalan banyak taman perumahan, lengkap dalam tempoh singkat! | Abang ‘sambar’ tak like! huhuhu |

Haileybury and Imperial Service College, Hertfordshire | When you take pics for mapillary on site like this, do you still make them as a (walking/driving) sequence? Or do you just do the Panoramio thing - take pictures of buildings/pois? |

Advanced JOSM Work on Schools | Always wondered: wouldn’t everything inside the school grounds boundary (amenity school polygon with barrier = fence maybe) be associated with the school without using a relation? Been mapping for years, and other than river islands relations, I’ve stayed away from them. Too finicky. |
|
Google Maps | 1) You are correct. 2) Coincidentally? No problem. On the other hand, in my experience, quite a few suspiciously “coincidentally” names from Google maps got put into OSM. In those particular cases that’s because ground truth checks reveals that google data was wrong in the first place. 3) No idea. Need further checks with people in the know about legalese talk. |
|
Drone mapping | Not directly to OSM that I know of. You might want to try OpenAerialMap |
|
My phone GPS is so inacurate, uploading a GPS trace LOWERS the quality of OSM. | I am still waiting for external bluetooth gps with L1 & L5 bands. Doesn’t seem likely, but there’s nothing else to do but wait and hope. |

Bus stops in the middle of the road | Objection!:) An integrated combination of improved old and new would be nicer though |
