Nice mapping but make sure to use the Q key to 'square' the corners of buildings before uploading

Thanks Ant - I suspect folks are just concerned that the community cant verify what sort of permissions have been granted, for what sort of feature edits/digitising. Without seeing the actual permissions/licencing, we cant tell if your edits fit within the permissions granted to OpenStreetMap (not your company/Project). We will await the documentation but until then it would be wise to limit your edits as it would be a large effort to revert lots of changesets, especially if it takes some time and other folks edit your changes.

Hi Ant, ask them specifically if you can use the imagery to digitise features into OpenStreetMap. I would love to see the response.

Hi there - please take some extra time with your mapping and remember to "square' buildings by using the Q key after adding the building tag. This will be a lot of work for others to correct in the future.

Did you really mean access=no on Platform Peak track? osm.wiki/Tag:access%3Dno

I have just cleaned up this golf course as you looked to have made many common golf tagging errors (122 in total). I suspect that you are using old tagging or tagging for some renderer or some golf course software (TGC Designer??). Please refrain from naming golf holes and features like greens and fairways. Please use the accepted tagging for all golf course edits osm.wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dgolf_course

I have just corrected many of these features that were 'named' incorrectly. Check out the wiki for golf courses and you will save yourself heaps of time. osm.wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dgolf_course

I am sure the local community will be on to those corrections immediately, although they have been there for 5 years. It would be a lot easier to correct if the quadrant was in its own dedicated key.

So write down the rule that the local community has agreed to and applies in your special areas and there will be no confusion. You might even consider another address sub key for quadrant? osm.wiki/Key:addr:*

Excellent - so document that in the wiki so it can be applied with consistency

129765303 over 2 years ago

Its clear to me that there is some sort of 'exception' that seems to occur in this area and has been agreed to by the local 'community'. There are lots of things that OSM does differently to other standards (be they postal addresses standards, utilities etc) so what folks are asking is that somewhere this is documented, preferably in the wiki link I posted earlier. If it only occurs in Calgary then make that clear. If its also in other areas then spell that out so we all benefit from the communities agreed standard that differs from the OSM norm.

You might like to edit the Canada Tagging Guidelines to reflect change so there is no further issues ... if the community has changed from the suggestion in the wiki.
