Well, I don't recall. I did drive through that area and made a ton of edits. It's possible I didn't see any track or "footway": when I was there. As you know, Tiger tracks are scattered all over Alaska and are sometimes positioned in terrain where its possible to see that it isn't there now and simply never was there. The North Slope, for example, is full of such "tracks". I try to align them using existing imagery when they are visible but I sometimes just delete them.

Actually, I was getting ahead of myself a bit. I believe ชม. 3065 continues at least to the park entrance road and perhaps beyond however I did not see any ref markers on that section. The Pha Chor access road and its continuation past Parking Lot #3 is now a paved loop and returns to the park entrance road. There are new painted milestones along that loop road but as yet no refs on them.

Hi Russ,

I was just at Pha Chor (Mae Wang NP) yesterday and added some newly marked route refs. My question is about a section of highway old ref ชม. 5104 that you updated a few months ago to ชม.3065.

I believe ชม.3065 continues straight into the Pha Chor tourist site. There is a brand new metal flag marker to indicate this. Can you check your data to see how you decided ชม. 3065 turns south here (18.5313, 98.7772)?

Thanks, Dave
PS: There is an newly paved loop road that replaces a lot of the dirt tracks in the park. Fantastic ride and scenery.

I didn't see anything wrong - perhaps it's another rendering problem. That entire area is a mess. Many inner areas (unwooded) span two multipolygon relations. Ugly!

No problem. The slow rendering of OSM throws me off too.
Whatis the relation ID of the wood in MHS?

These relations are so big and complicated that it's very easy to mess one up. The folks that did the first big multipolygon included the entire mountainous region becaue they assumed it was all forested. Wrong! Now, with better imagery, we can see many places that are unforested areas and during recent years we mappers have inserted hundreds of inners to better show reality. But in the process those things have grown into monsters!

I think I see the problem. I did change the wood multipolygon boundaries slightly but the OSM imagery hasn't kept up with those changes.

If you zoom in, the forest will reappear. After a time, it will appear at all zoom levels.

Hi,
When I look at that multipolygon relation inside JOSM, everything looks fine. But I was working in that area yesterday so if something is strange, I might have caused it.

I will look at it later and let you know what I can find out.

Please feel free to go ahead.

That's exactly where I placed it.
So what's the point of your reply? Am I missing something you're trying to tell me?

**compiled in 1968**

I don't know who is right. My experience with my other goto source, the Dictionary of Alaska Place Names, was compiled in 198 and their coordinates are sometimes significantly off.

If you have a better alternative, go ahead and correct the position. I did not see "another guy" or another position.

Maybe I was the "other guy"? I added the node using the Dictionary of Alaska Place Names coords then changed it a few minutes later.

There was no Pillar Mountain node before I added it AFAIK.

Hello,

Many of the edits and additions you made in this changeset are questionable. You have added many nodes as fords over canals and rivers. I am quite familiar with this area and do not think those fords exist. Just because a stream or canal crosses a highway and there is no bridge on the map does not mean the highway crosses the stream or canal on a ford. Some earlier mapper has merely forgotten, or didn't take the time, to draw the bridge. Assuming it's a ford is probably wrong. Unless you know for a fact that those crossings are fords, do not assume it to be so.

Also, you added some sort of religious area, perhaps a temple or roadside shrine, tagged it with amenity=place_of_worship, and used "Hinduism god place" for an English name. That's totally wrong. If anything, it is a buddhist place. How you decided to give it that name is a mystery. (Way: ศาลพระภูมิ (712590405). Using the Thai name you supplied (ศาลพระภูมิ), the correct name:en for that place is "San Phra Phum".

Please read the Thailand section of the Wiki and use the guidelines in it to help your mapping efforts.

I meant to say, I've struggled with it on a number of occasions.

Cheers,
Dave

I'm sorry that happened. I know it was a ton of work to get that thing done in the first place. I've with it myself on a number of occasions, and quite possibly screwed it up myself.
I'll delete those stray bits of ways I found yesterday.

Hi Johnny.
I'm back in Thailand and came across several untagged ways. I'm sure they were inner areas for the large residential area multipolygon you worked on years ago. It now seems that the big multipolygon has disappeared. Is that true?

Hi,
I am working in the area of Ban Phra Phutthabat Si Roi and have a few questions to ask about the edits in this changeset. You have tagged several buildings as "wilderness_hut" and then added some name:en tags that are not translations of the Thai names you provided. Foe example, you tagged one such building with name:en=Abandon in longan farm. Using the recommended program to convert Thai to English, Thai Romanization (from the Dept.of Linguistics, Faculty of Arts
Chulalongkorn University), and the Thai name you added, that program reports "Ban Rang Nai Suan Lamyai" as the correct transliteration. I agree that those words mean "abandoned house in a longan farm" but that is not the normal use of the name:en tag. I moved your name to a different tag, alt_name:en, which is better suited to descriptive names.
Then there is the question of whether these buildings are actually wilderness_huts. See the Wiki at tourism=wilderness_hut#Description. If these buildings have the features described on that page, then I agree that your tagging is correct.
Another point is that when mapping a wat there is no need to add the English word "temple" to the name:en. The word "wat" is enough because it means "temple". Also, when mapping wats, please be sure to add the tag religion=buddhist.

Thank you for your work.
Cheers,
Dave

OK. Thanks. The full history of that way must have gotten reset somehow.

Hi,
I can't find any reference to the cycleway in downtown Eugene you tagged with name=Corvallis Eugene Expressway.
Can you help me out?
Thanks,
Dave

Hi,

Can you explain your reasoning for changing several cycleways in Eugene to highway=path? It seems you and user:shanerh are both doing this.
It seems obvious to me that cycleway fits their intended use much better than the more generic "path". I've changed them back to cycleways but maybe I'm missing something?
Cheers,
Dave

Hi,
Could you explain why you changed the highway classification of the West Bank Trail in Eugene from cycleway to path?
Thanks,
Dave
