Hi, avoid mapping ghost round buildings such as way/1072889759 and others you have mapped here.

Hi,
If you can't see what's in the imagery, kindly just don't map anything. For example, way/1072914511 is not a building.

Use a good changeset comment that is meaningful to other mappers too, not just some random hashtags that doesn't help.

Hi abdul_, kindly check the imagery offset for Maxar in/around Wa when adding new data. You can use the "Get Imagery Offset" from the "Imagery" menu in JOSM to see some saved offsets by other mappers and how they fit with existing data.
Happy mapping!

Hi Kwadwo, and welcome to OpenStreetMap. Thank you for mapping, unfortunately mapping unconnected ways as you did here is useless in OpenStreetMap and to everyone. A good question to ask yourself is how will a vehicle connect to this from where?

Start from an area around you where you can map or update missing features you know about.

Hi herbert agyeman,

Welcome to OpenStreetMap (OSM), and thanks for your contributions.

Unfortunately, most of them are out of place and must be fixed, which is also not a big problem in OSM.

Here are a couple of things to note before mapping;
1. Since you are using the iD editor, kindly zoom in enough to see existing objects before adding new ones to avoid duplicate data.
2. Use the full names of streets, i.e. "Airport Road" instead of "airport rd"
3. You don't need to add "I like to ..." at the beginning of your changeset comments, "added road names in Sunyani" or "added road names" is already good.

Here is a resource for getting started with iD editor https://learnosm.org/en/beginner/id-editor/

Happy Mapping!

hi,
can you clarify the use of these spaghetti roads?

hi,
can you clarify the usefulness of these spaghetti roads you mapped here?

I am not sure how you came up with https://pewu.github.io/osm-history/#/way/783148500 and others here, can you please clarify or you are just fantasy mapping?

Welcome to OpenStreetMap. Avoid using those hash they make no meaning. Also, stop putting your name in the changeset comments. See what a Good changeset comment is osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

53847625

Don't just add tags anywhere without understanding what they mean. For example, adding a railway switch to the corner of a building like here https://pewu.github.io/osm-history/#/node/5233056634 is useless and false

thanks for mapping, but be careful when using a mobile app; you just added a trash bin to an existing building's node here node/3431479458

120384017

Please, what are you trying to map here?

125724713

Putting "Mapped buildings" before all those hashtags is much more useful.

Alos, kindly stop adding "addr:city=Boadi" to buildings

125749056

Stop adding "addr:street=Boadi" to your buildings.

Also adding the changeset before all those hashtags is much more useful.

You really don't need to put the quantity of what you have mapped in the changeset comment :)

Thanks for mapping. Kindly avoid connecting buildings to roads as you did here. Also, learn about good changeset comments and tell you mapped instead of just uploading with only hashtags that are not helpful to yourself and other mappers. Read osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

Thanks for mapping. I have moved the name to this node node/10014212504 works best to have the name on place=* node near a major road.

Can you help clarify the relation to node/1794371185 as the names look similar with different locations.

Hi,

Thanks for mapping. Chps compound is better tagged with amenity=health_post

Hi, thanks for mapping.

Changeset comments like this make no sense and are meaningless to you and other mappers. Kindly read osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments and use meaningful comments that describe what you did, e.g. added residential buildings
