The changes were done my a new mapper who changed a bunch of tracks etc into shared paths, but these roads are currently and have been for any reasonable time, roads for vehicles. I'm just about to contact them, but possibly they misunderstood the preset in iD.

I wouldn't say they need to be 100% accurate, but a couple of metres variation seems reasonable. However an issue will arise if you use google earth as *source data*, rather than your method. However going out and measuring or making informed estimates I would say is generally good.

G'day scrytch, just curious where the source for the building height is as there is none listed in the changeset. Cheers, ortho_is_hot

G'day redsphere, and welcome to OpenStreetMap,

In regards to building outlines, the iD editor has the orthogonalise tool (shortcut key is q) which allows you to ensure that all corners of a building are 90 degrees which is generally the case.

However we have not received a waiver from wikipedia regarding the attribution requirement. CC0 licensed wikidata, however, can be used.

Hi, I've gone ahead and added the appropriate tagging for 24/7 opening hours and designated it as a gym.

G'day ctrl_data and thanks for your contributions,

In regards to the educational facilities you have added, my suggestion is to have the amenity=* take up the entire lot that the facility is situated on and then add an additional building=* to create the building outline. Also you may just want to add a building tag to the existing area.

Also note that its "lanes" and not "lines"

Somewhere along the line a building tag was added to the station which I think should be removed (it's a cutting in the ground)

I went ahead and updated the instructions on the maproulette task as it implied that :forward and :backward is necessary on every road. Personally I do specify the number of lanes in each direction on even-laned roads when they have more than 2 lanes although I agree with your point.

Maybe a generic cycleway=no would be appropriate?

My apologies, I only just noticed that you did that in a later changeset. Thanks for the contribution, regards ortho_is_hot

Hi Darryn and welcome to OpenStreetMap,

I'm personally not from the area, but if the cycleways that you added also allow pedestrians, then you can select the "Shared Path" preset in iD that will add correct access restrictions and allow routing across the paths for pedestrians. If not then they're fine as they are.

Hi, just wondering why you deleted the station outline? To me it seems like a much more accurate than a single node to describe the facility?

And by all means if you want to leave another mapper to do it (since you were just adding bridges) then you are more than welcome to do so

86695580 about 5 years ago

If you know for sure that all the paths are shared then you're more than welcome to to a batch upgrade with the preset (all it does is set highway=cycleway foot=designated bicycle=designated). Last time I was there I did see some shared paths so I presume that most/if not all are shared paths. A cycleway with foot access seems to be a good indication to me that they are.

If they are all tagged with foot=yes then adding the preset won't change how routing is done (routers would know that pedestrians can use it), but it makes it slightly *more* correct, since both foot and bicycle are explicitly designated by signage.

Great, thanks for the important change; in iD theres an option for source e.g. survey or website etc
Thanks, ortho_is_hot

Hi there,
Just for future reference you can use the "Shared Path" preset in iD if both cyclists and pedestrians are legally permitted to use the pathway which will set the tags as set out in the ATG.

Hi there, just wondering what the source for this speed limit change is as there is none listed in the changeset source?
