sorry for the dupe. browser and me acting weird at the same time?

I’ve started to use Every Door a little bit and like it a lot. Ilya is right, it takes bit of getting used to. But I don’t see another way currently existing that can do more to ensure we’re going to 1) get all the POI in OSM and 2) important! keep them updated.

About “later never happens”, I think you’re generally right, if you’re just speaking for yourself. For MapRoulette I have the idea to connect the “now” of mappers out on the streets with the “later” of armchair mappers. That can be a different person. The mapper on the street would, for example, take a picture. And the mapper at their desk, using MapRoulette, could add the information from the photo to OSM in turn. I’m not sure about this feature yet but would like to get some opinions on why it would (not) work.

Huh, the embedded mov doesn’t show up for me (it did in preview mode!) but you can see it here.

Also I should give a shout out to the OSM tile server docker project that does the heavy lifting!

Thanks for reminding me to write up a diary for my docker-based approach. Just did that!

Welcome to OSM! If you’re looking for some mapping tasks, you can check out maproulette.org

Great to read your impressions, thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing, Hawa! Great photos. And you’re right about volunteering :)

I love the photos and your summary, thanks for sharing!

And good to see you again as well!

Thanks for sharing your summary! Glad you enjoyed my talk :)

Great to hear you are using MapRoulette! Let me know if you need any support with it.

Thanks for sharing your impressions, Matheus! Great photos too.

Welcome to OSM!

Oh, great to know about the 2008 one too. Since I just took my 2008 “OSM then and now” service offline I can point people to this!

Happy ODbLiversary!

Did you happen to use OSM Vintage Tile Server to generate the 2012 tiles? I am just curious if people find it useful :)

Great to see this.

n76 - nice to see these two data sources come together then! I am learning new things too here: I didn’t know about the update geometry operation. I usually do Cmd-c and then Cmd-Shift-v (probably Shift instead of Cmd on Win / Linux) to copy and paste tags onto a different geometry.

Now the comments here about leaving the node and way separate makes me wonder if the challenge would need to be revised / reconsidered? Does it need to be more specific in saying that you can also leave the address node but just remove the building tag from the address node?

I didn’t know about the combine operation! That is super handy! I had used the textbox trick before, and in fact that was how I was copying the tags over. I like the MapRoulette challenge also as a way to locate areas where RapiD has a lot of buildings that can still be added!

Hmm perhaps we can have a look together. If you’re on Slack send me a message there or right here on OSM is also great.
