Microsoft released a machine-generated dataset of building footprints for the United States some years ago. The footprints are derived from aerial imagery. This works well, most of the time. Where you run into problems is in rural areas, especially where there’s natural features and topography that throws the machine learning off. Then the machine starts to think all kinds of things are buildings:

Let’s add the Grande Anello Di Arquata bike route uploaded by user Carlitos2502.
A number of transit agencies in the greater Baltimore region have overlapping service areas, and as a result some stops are shared between operators and/or networks. Typically what this looks like is multiple signs will be fixed to the same post for the different services, and usually the stop will have a different reference number within the systems it serves. If there is a shelter, it is operated by just one of the agencies that uses the stop.
Locally, the Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) stops are the most thoroughly mapped, and functions as the “primary” operator for the region, with connecting agencies often functioning as supplements to it rather than alternatives. In auditing the bus stop information on the map, I had initially thought adding shared stop information to a highway=bus_stop node would involve using operator namespaces like ref:MTA= so that it is clear which agency uses that stop number. The distinction between a shared stop node and two different stop nodes for overlapping services seems like an important one, as in some cases an overlapping service can have a stop very close to another rather than sharing one. This can make a difference in the logistics of connecting between services or assessing some of the finer details of bus stop placement.
Кожен крок повинен бути корисним.
Як зробити незабутніми і одночасно корисними поїздки автівкою?!
За кермом часто трапляються ситуації, які хочеться залишити в пам’яті. А ще трапляються місця, до яких згодом хотілося б повернутися і більш детально вивчити.
Тобто маємо потребу в інформації про місце і про об’єкт. Інформацію про місце можна отримати, якщо записати координати. Інформацію про об’єкт можна отримати за допомогою фотографування або відеозйомки
У кожному з цих випадків допоможуть Street Level Photos проєкти. Надаю перевагу Mapillary, це якщо обирати також серед KartaView та Trek View. Фактично, в пасивному режимі отримуємо і фото і трек, за рахунок геоміток у фото в постійному режимі зйомки.
Під час військового стану в Україні заборонено використання відеореєстраторів та зйомка доріг загального користування, тому зйомку для цілей Mapillary краще і безпечніше вести навіть в іншій країні.
А якщо ще й зйомка доріг проводиться вперше на певній ділянці — це взагалі чудово. Таке собі полювання за унікальними даними. Тож невеличка поїздка вдень Словаччиною до Польщі і сонячна погода, коротший маршрут довжиною 160 км гірськими дорогами. Тому навіть більш цікавий.
Декілька недоліків — рух майже проти сонця та зйомка з салону авто.
Камера закріплена біля дзеркала заднього виду. Частота зйомки 2 кадри на секунду в режимі Time lapse photo. Торпедо накрите темною матовою тканиною.
Колеса крутяться — фоточки мутяться)))
Вперше була відзнята ділянка майже 40 км Nižná Jablonka — Hawaj,
а також Борузал — Крайня Поляна
та Дукля - Івла
А найцікавіша ділянка — новий обхід Ясло.
Цієї дороги ще навіть на супутникових знімках немає.

Meine bevorzugte Karte ist die OpenMTBMap. Sie ist mein ständiger Begleiter beim Wandern und Radfahren im Gelände. Ästhetisch ist sie - sagen wir es so - gewöhnungsbedürftig, aber sie informiert hervorragend.
Nur in Städten mag ich sie nicht besonders. Zu viele Details überlagern das Straßenbild bis zur Unkenntlichkeit. Was in freier Natur sinnvoll ist - die Darstellung jeder unterstützender Infrastruktur - ist in Städten kontraproduktiv. Es gibt einfach zu viel davon, die ganze Stadt ist Infrastruktur.

The OpenStreetMap Taiwan Community (OSMTW) is pleased to announce that it has secured an alliance grant from the Wikimedia Foundation, which has been used to purchase two Insta360 One X2 cameras with accessories, and to support related workshops scheduled from March 2022 until February 2023. OSMTW is dedicated to organising at least six street-view expeditions and six edit workshops. OSMTW members begin their journey to terra incognita of street-view by self-driving and documenting with the 360-degree camera on the rooftop. Afterwards, members will enhance OpenStreetMap data and upload photos to the Wikimedia Commons, a multimedia repository, with the post-edited expedition media.
OSMTW initiated the 1st preflight workshop on March 19, 2022, at the MozTW space in Taipei, following the maiden street-view expedition on April 24, 2022. Departing from Yangbei Redevelopment Zone (央北重劃區), the 11-people expedition team head for multiple locations in 4 vehicles, including Keelung, Jinshan, and Wanli, and recorded the sections of National Highway No. 3 having insufficient street view data. The team dropped by at the Xiandong Tunnel (仙洞隧道) to take photos at both entrances since the tunnel is currently inaccessible to the public.
Next, the team is split into two, bound for Xiandongyan (Deity’s cave/ 仙洞巖) and the Sprial Ramp (迴車塔). Xiandongyan is a Buddhist temple in a sea cave with designated Cultural Landscape status; however, the outcome is somewhat disappointing due to poor indoor illumination. The latter is a unique artificial driveway slope in Taiwan. The team later rendezvoused at the Dawulun Fishing Harbor (大武崙漁港) for replenishments; crowds were observed on the beaches even under the COVID-19 outbreak.

開放街圖臺灣社群（OpenStreetMap 臺灣社群）很榮幸爭取到維基媒體基金會的聯盟補助，主要用在購置了兩台 Insta360 One X2 相機（與相對應的配件），並規劃自2022年3月開始，一直到2023年2月的街景踏查團與對應的編輯工作坊活動。將辦理六次實地踏查與至少六次的編輯工作坊。社群成員架設360相機在汽車上面，邊開車邊拍攝360相片，拍攝還沒有人拍攝街景的地方。之後回到電腦前，再來用拍攝到的相片為依據，編輯 OpenStreetMap 共編地圖添加資料，以及將沿途經過的景點與在地聚落，上傳相關照片到 Wikimedia Commons 多媒體站。
社群首先於2022年3月19號先在台北的摩茲工寮舉辦踏查團的前導工作坊，上個月（也就是2022年4月）24號舉辦了第一次的街景踏查團，在取車或自駕完成，先在央北重劃區先行，4台車共11人出發前往基隆、金山、萬里等行政區，其中並拍攝了國道三號部份缺少街景的路段。途中停留在仙洞隧道不過只拍了兩邊的洞口，隧道本體目前無法進入。再來一行人分為仙洞巖與迴車塔。仙洞嚴則是進入廟內的一線天，但燈光不佳拍攝效果不好。迴車塔則是拍攝台灣難得的人工車道斜坡。後於大武崙漁港附近會合，稍事休息補充熱量與水份，並且觀察週末的海灘即使是在疫情之下也仍有很多民眾海岸邊戲水。
中午與下午則到金山老街等地，在水尾漁港覓食與踏查取材。還有到金山老街品嘗芋圓美味之後，再兵分多路回到台北。
OpenStreetMap 台灣預計在本月（2022年5月）22日同樣於摩茲工寮舉辦第一次的街景踏查團編輯工作坊，會中可能會利用事前上傳到 Mapillary、KartaView 等開放的街景網站的照片來編輯 OpenStreetMap（變更集將會帶有 #streetsurveyTW 主題標籤），並會從拍攝的照片中挑選部份景點或維基媒體計畫中無照片或當地照片久未更新之處將其上傳到維基共享資源，同時利用上傳到維基共享資源的照片來編寫維基百科、維基導遊或維基數據等維基媒體專案。歡迎有興趣的人報名參與！
希望開放街圖與維基媒體等開放內容計畫能愈來愈好，產出更多高品質的資料！

Hi this is Miko I’m currently in Little Rock Arkansas United States. I’m really digging this map made by the users. Y’all have a nice day.
Hi all, we are creating MTB routes for Italy-Switzerland border. We love MTB experiences by day and by night. Almost each thursday we add a brick in our puzzle. At the end we will join them together. We are based on Bizzarone, a pleasant village near Lake Como and Lugano. Feel free to contribute!
hi! am JOSEPH MANGU am working with Open Map Development Tanzania #HOT Tanzania since 2022 as a volunteer and I have worked through different projects . Always am proud to be part of OSM family under YouthMappers at Jordan University College. Here is my email accounts:jmangu360@gmail.com
自分の足でいけるところの地図のリファインが最近の中心です。日々ちょろっとしか改善されませんが、365回やってたらちょっとしたモノかなと。

He creado un mapa web provisional donde se muestra el resultado de la incorporación de contenedores de reciclaje y de basura al mapa de OpenStreetMap en el municipio de Málaga.
La importación de contenedores de basura aún no está terminada. El gestor de tareas de la comunidad local donde se alojaba el proyecto de importación dejó de funcionar temporalmente, lo que ha provocado un retraso no deseado. No obstante, sigo trabajando en la importación de forma local y pronto se incorporarán al mapa los contenedores que faltan.
En paralelo y con la colaboración de Areyesl y Alan Grant, se están revisando la ubicación y características de los contenedores de reciclaje previamente importados para que la información incluida en el mapa de OpenStreetMap sea lo más precisa posible.
In the last year our Polish OpenStreetMap community started updating the data of parcel lockers and their locations in Poland. The popularity of these machines has significantly increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. We estimate the increase in the number of these devices in Poland at around 3,000 per year. The mapping campaign and the hard work of many contributors have led to the fact that the OSM data in the case of the introduced parcel machines in Poland is much more accurate than the data that the operators of these machines have. At the moment, we have over 4,200 parcel machines introduced to OSM. So we have potentially another advantage in promoting OpenStreetMap in Poland. Unfortunately, we cannot use it, because the parcel lockers are not rendered on www.openstreetmap.org.
The Polish OSM community made a huge contribution to standardize tagging of these features in accordance with all community guidelines. The process was quite difficult because the comments were diverse (and strong) and it was impossible to take into account all of them. Proposa link These steps were time consuming, but eventually we were able to work out the tagging scheme accepted by the OSM community.
Unfortunately, we are not able to develop a solution that would be satisfying for people responsible for maintaining the CartoCSS stylesheet. All our attempts failed.Git hub discussion
That is why I would like to ask a few questions: Why in some areas of our community project do we have total autocracy instead of democracy? Should the OSMF not change the rules for introducing changes to the style to follow the trends and changes in the world around us? Don’t you have the impression that our Democracy is turning into Anarchy?
Hi!! I am getting acquainted with the OSM hot keys(keyboard shortcuts) and it makes the editing easier. At this point I have added over 800 buildings to my father’s village. It’s been fun so far and I’d like to move on to my mother’s village.
Happy mapping you all!!!
