For future reference:

I am rechecking all my changesets that list Council imagery as a source for copyright reasons.

I could not confirm the origin of some changes in a previous changeset. This changeset reverse those.

See my comment on 163168603 for more details.

For future reference:

I am rechecking all my changesets that list Council imagery as a source for copyright reasons.

I do not believe any of the changes in this changeset are directly atrributable to the council imagery.

However, some of the objects are not visible in the DCS NSW Imagery either, so I can't definitely attribute them to a source.

To stay on the safe side, I have attempted to partially revert the change (first time doing this, let's see how it goes). I chose to keep the trees, swingset, footpath adjustments, and changes to outline of play area as these are all confirmed in the DCS NSW Imagery.

For future reference:

I am rechecking all my changesets that list Council imagery as a source for copyright reasons. I am comparing my changes to the DCS NSW Imagery and I believe that all changes in this changeset can be attributed to sources that do not include the council imagery.

In particulatr, the dirt path drawn from the playground to the start of the waterway, which is not visible in the DCS Imagery is also not visible in the council imagery and was based on my own local knowledge.

If you are viewing this changeset and have concerns about copyright, please let me know.

Hi aharvey! Thanks for double checking my edits and the quality checking. I was (and still am) relatively new to editing.

I don't know why I didn't see any of your comments for the last 5 months until now, so apologies for that.

For this edit, I don't believe the Northern Beaches Council imagery has anything that isn't present on the DCS NSW Imagery, except different lighting conditions, so I don't think anything will have to be redrawn, but I am not an expert on copyright issues on OSM.

My changes to some of the fences and were sourced from GPS traces that I took myself (but did not list as a source correctly). And my changes to placement of benches, taps, etc were based on my own visits to the park.

Anything that is still in doubt I can confirm in person if needed to avoid copyright issues.

I am currently going through some of my old changesets to remove any information that was obtain exclusively from council imagery.

For your other points, I believe these are all just mistakes due to my inexperience with this and I appreciate your corrections.

Also as a second question from me, I have mapped the segment in between the two roundabouts as two separate one way ways. I did this because the roundabouts are very close and it could be awkward to have the in and out lanes for each roundabout rejoin and then split again for the next roundabout. There is also a small concrete divider, for most but not all of the distance between the two roundabouts.

Do you think was a good way of mapping this?

Hi! I was speaking to some users on the Discord and was made aware of this.

I have visited this location in person and can confirm the mapping.

What I have mapped doesn't exactly match the plans anyway, so I think we should be ok on the copyright front.

I probably shouldn't have listed it as a "source" as such, but more of a reference for anyone else who looks here and wonders why the mapping doesn't match aerial footage.

I hope this is ok? I am still relatively new to contributing.

Thanks for double checking and making sure everything is above boar though! Happy to make any other changes you think I need to.
