| 73685197 | Is Boulder Falls better described as a cliff, or as a waterfall? |
|
| 71079662 | Your aim seems to have been a bit off here. ARCpoint Labs is one building further south than where you placed it. |
|
| 73639759 | Thanks for your interest in improving the map. Unfortunately, I'm afraid this edit needs to be reverted. The STA terms of service (https://www.spokanetransit.com/about-sta/developers-terms-of-use) don't permit their GTFS data to be used in OpenStreetMap (among other problems, they can revoke permission to use the data at any time). Even if they didn't, there are a number of problems with this import, such as duplicate stops (particularly in Cheney and downtown Spokane) and less-than-ideal tagging. In the future, when importing data from outside sources please follow the guidelines at osm.wiki/Import/Guidelines -- yes, it's a slow, complicated process, but it's intended to prevent problems before they happen. |
|
| 73598419 | Please don't abbreviate names, particularly if they're already non-abbreviated. If a computer needs to save space, it's easy to construct an abbreviation, but going the other way is far harder. For example, should "st" be expanded to "state", "street", or "saint"? |
|
| 73559917 | I don't know if you've noticed, but you can change which background imagery you're using by clicking on the "Background Settings" tab in the editor (it looks a little like three stacked sheets of paper) and selecting which imagery you want to use. In the Spokane area, the "Esri World Imagery" option is sharper and better-aligned than the default "Bing" imagery. |
|
| 73548469 | Thanks for your addition -- it's always useful to have locally-known features added to the map. You made a couple of mistakes here, though: first, elevations in OSM are measured in meters, not feet -- a 4826-meter-tall mountain would be the tallest in the lower 48. And second, the second digit of the number on the topo map was a "3", not an "8". I've fixed both of these problems. |
|
| 73519091 | Okay, I think I figured out a workable method. 26 driveways and three residential roads restored. |
|
| 73519091 | I'm trying to figure out how best to revert this, since several of the driveways you deleted (eg. way/6213884) were correctly aligned and tagged, while others (eg. way/6212680) were correctly aligned but incorrectly tagged. |
|
| 73519091 | Quite a few of the roads you deleted here were correctly-mapped driveways. |
|
| 73500627 | If something doesn't have a name, you don't need to give it one. Lanes in parking lots almost never have names, and someone looking for a parking space is going to be quite confused if their GPS tells them to "turn left on parking lot, and then turn right on parking lot". |
|
| 73452469 | Where are you getting this planned road from? It's inside the airport security fence (which argues against it being built), passes through the runway 6 overrun area (which argues more strongly that it won't be built), and traffic on it would interfere with the runway 6 ILS (which pretty much guarantees it won't be built). |
|
| 73452351 | I've reverted this changeset. The road construction you've mapped is changing too rapidly to be worth mapping -- for example, the closure of 1st Avenue was for today only. |
|
| 73444114 | I've reverted this changeset. Most if not all of it is based on outdated information; the map prior to this changeset reflected the street signs and road geometry that was actually preset when I drove through there two years ago. |
|
| 73389238 | It's a map and navigation app with a very-poorly-designed POI editor. See osm.wiki/MAPS.ME |
|
| 73347081 | Mapping sidewalks separately is the more detailed option -- it lets you map things like curb/ramp types, "do not cross" signs, and other things that don't fit onto a road's sidewalk tags. |
|
| 73361611 | Are you sure the trail you added around the Bulkley River has a smoothness of "impassible"? It doesn't look like it from the aerial imagery. |
|
| 73347081 | You appear to have deleted a fair bit of sidewalk, crosswalk, and curb mapping along Keene Road. Was this intentional? |
|
| 73055437 | Are you sure about the non-existence of the farmland you removed here? Aerial imagery from this spring still shows it. |
|
| 72946513 | Cylindrical buildings on a hillside surrounded by a fence? Good bet they're water tanks, not silos. |
|
| 72919729 | The first sentence of the wiki page on highway=track (highway=track) and about a million miles of usage. osm.wiki/United_States_roads_tagging#National_Forest_Road_System and osm.wiki/United_States_roads_tagging#Other_Roads also suggest it. |
