I have created a Maproulette challenge (mpr.lt/c/48876) dealing with untagged ways in Ghana so they are going to get fixed soon.

Thanks for reviewing the edits.

The paths around the bridge are not visible in the imagery. I think it's better to delete them. Including way/965684286

Hi nevw, you have deleted existing streams while fixing a loop. This has, in turn, created new isolated waterways.
Please have a second look at this.

Hi Greenhouseintdevgh,
Welcome to OSM. Your changeset comment raises eyebrows. Do these POIs actually exist here, or are you just testing how to add things to OSM? Hoping it's the former.

Besides that, a better way to add many POIs in a single building is to add each one as a node (point). They are not separate buildings in one building.

Best,
Sam

Hello Yvette,
Welcome to OpenStreetMap and thanks for contributing to the map in Ghana. Adding a single name to every building you map is not right. You should only add names to buildings with notable names. Names should also not be all UPPERCASE.

Best,
Sam

Duaboni 1 seems to be the right location. Verifying from my sources the label could be pointing to one of the two locations.

Hi Thomas,
This might be pretty late, but the issues I found brought me here.

Don't use ALL UPPERCASE for the values but rather Name Case if it's a name.

Only the first two parts of the GhanaPostGPS address, without the hyphen, is used for addr:postcode=*. The full address is used in addr:ghanapostgps=*.

Street names should be written in full. Not Ave for Avenue or St for Street.

Happy mapping!

Hello profjude, this changeset has been reverted by changeset/157829771. The area mapped as a hospital is not correct and the nature of the edit is akin to vandalism.

Hello EkowYaw, the footpaths you added cross other roads and intersect buildings. This is not ideal. I'm fixing these, but next time connect highways when they intersect and avoid connecting highways to buildings.

Regards,
Sam

Hello E-mensah,
you mapped buildings that are already mapped and created duplicates of them. You also remapped Bank Road and Post Office Loop which already existed in another changeset.
To avoid this in the future, zoom in on the place you are mapping and make sure the data is fully loaded before adding anything.

Regards,
Sam

It's alright.

The changeset comment cannot be changed. The changeset comment did not reflect the changes, which made it seem there was a mistake (which happens).

It's all good. Happy mapping!

Ju

Thanks for the clarification.

Your changeset comment does not match the changes made though.

Hello rk-, what you deleted was a shop and did not contain any phone number. Possibly you deleted the wrong object?

Hi Prince,
note that the name=* tag is used to add formal names of objects and not a description of any kind. Kindly review this edit and remove "maped you building" as the building name.

Welcome to OSM!

Hi Awinebotima, thanks for contributing to the map in Ghana. As a new mapper you should be aware that OSM uses multiple imagery sources and they all do not have the same alignment so the data may not align with some or any of them at a particular place.

With the help of GPS traces we are able to correct these and save these offsets in a database. osm.wiki/Imagery_Offset_Database#JOSM_Plugin

Kindly read a little about this and always check before you realign objects.

Your realignment was not properly done and unfortunately has to be reversed.

Hello, you mapped way/561145062 as Statoil but that brand does not exist in Ghana. Was it Star Oil you saw?

See this note for reference: note/4212797

Hi Ziggyentumi@20, welcome to OSM and thanks for contributing to the map in Ghana.
Kindly note that names are only added to buildings when they are publicly known. I doubt h1, h2 are real names. You might have done this out of ignorance but don't use the name tag to add random names.

Sam

Hi Mateusz,
you are definitely correct. This should be place_of_worship. It's an edit from my early days and I guess OsmAnd didn't help with a good suggestion.

Fixing it right away.

Hello Vida, welcome to OSM.

I think what you are trying to add are street lights and should be mapped as:

highway=street_lamp

but not:

tourism=viewpoint

You shouldn't add name=Light pole to the poles because it's just descriptive text and not actual names of the poles. Tagging them as street_lamp is enough.

Regards,
Sam

Hi Perey, welcome to OSM and thanks for contributing to the map in Ghana.

You have added valuable changes but note that names are unique and are only added to objects that have publicly known names such Lawra Market, Konto Hotel, and Baptist Church nearby. Buildings may have names but not all buildings do and certainly, many buildings in an area cannot have the same name so review your changes and remove the names of the buildings.

You can say hello in the OSM Ghana community on Telegram https://t.me/osmghana
