Have put it back to where it really is. Suggest use the Mapillary imagery

Mmm okay

You did use Maxar imagery which was often the latest available. GM/GE (bad!), and QLD Imagery though actually agree with the paving stop point.

The bit in contention is about 30km long. This would probably be rated as a major Qld Govt project possibly done by Maranoa Regional and I see no news on that topic. They have certainly done a lot of patching and long re-bitumen runs on what had already been paved. (from overheads) It is the main route to the Mt Moffatt end of Carnarvon NP and a farms road. Qld Parks advertising talks about 4WD being needed and to be careful. No mention of this route being improved.

Have made the change. I will however also ask Jordal as he seems to be involved in a road safety transport business where his clients give surface etc feedback. His report was enough for me to risk the Taroom<>Injune Rd (156km) of which 55km is unsealed/bumpy. The eastern end of that is being actively sealed.

Doing well. Parked at campsite for the next 2-3 months..

Going back back back into time.. Is Mt Moffatt Rd really sealed this far north? QLD Imagery (always a bit old) only has about 2km from the south end. Doing some surface tag cleanup after driving Injune>Forestvale>Mitchell yesterday. Should have sidetracked up here too.

Well I'd expect its a typo. The toilet building is relatively new as it is not on the hi-def QLD Imagery, but is on ESRI and BING. The Mapillary imagery though of August 2025 show it in all its glory! Even the (non potable) water tank and lighting stands are visible

Okay have moved, cheers.

Is this in the right place? Didnt see it today but found one other side of Shakespeare 200m east. Pls replace the one I placed there with yours if it is correct

yeah its a typo tnx Mateusz, fixed. The older I get the fatter my keyboard fingers are...

Hi Caleb, wanted to advise you just in case any problem ensues. This changeset (and another other side of bridge) where you added asymmetric (or possibly HGV only?) 80/100 speed limits over the narrow bridge Gwydir Hwy has since been made 80kph in both directions. Mapillary imagery is available. I left the "forward" keys in place. Pls advise.

Good to hear its open again! I'll be doing a N-S Mapillary run along it in the next week if you want to cross check anything. That includes a dual GPS trace as well.

Interesting. You are unfortunately talking about thousands of nodes that I have mapped this way. I also remember a talk-au discussion ([talk-au] Country homesteads April 2022) on place vs landuse, where I enlisted the help of another OSM member to change all my landuse nodes to place. You actually made a similar comment to this one on that thread. This changeset is actually prior to the mass change as all the farm nodes are "landuse".

Named nodes do in fact render on the OSM GUI (and my mkgmap GPS) and it is unusual for me to leave a farm nameless as most have been gleaned from street imagery of access signs. Personally I like the vague location that gets displayed as it suggest a wider land use. Farm building type & location choices from overheads are also a bit risky IMO.

I am also quite wary of using DCS base farm names, nowadays really only using them as a spelling cross-check for a sign photo. So many are now just wrong. I also had an interesting discussion with a farmer about the "recent & unethical" practice of renaming a farm from the original that (he said) seems to happening more and more. For a while there I created some nodes with a fixme that were DCS name based mainly so my GPS would prompt me to record a note, but now I have a different mkgmap method. I suspect that the node you are referring to has in fact a missing name fixme.

So I guess thanks for your comment/ideas but I don't think there is a compelling reason to change my work method.

Cheers

Must have been too much coffee. Will fix a bit later today using maxspeed:type:AU as well.

Tnx much.

They have all been fixed by one of my mapping colleagues.

I think I got confused by the Australian Guidelines wiki using "AU" as part of a post office key (post_office:type:AU)=*, but as a value in maxspeed:type

Tnx for your help

Going to take a while, will try to enlist some help from other AU mappers with change/scripting support.

Tnx for the info

Mapillary imagery, my own. I usually do the OSM data input within a few days of capture, often before I upload to the server. My OSM diary has an article on my workflow. Cheers

Yep the church sign is on the imagery. It reads; "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints - Visitors Welcome". In that respect I appear to have the church type wrong. It seems too that the church building is "out by one" on OSM such that it points to a one within the cadet polygon. Will fix the name and position unless you suggest otherwise.

Woops. this changeset not from live Mapillary data. Shoud be titled "(Mostly) Data from discarded Mapillary private imagery, mostly street addresses."

Yeah thanks for that. Bleary eyes. 108 was actually 10B. Found 10A as well. Nice to know I am being cross checked. Cheers

Woops was actually private Mapillary images, for house numbers

Yeah woke me up too. It's one of those blue/white actual property/address signs https://www.mapillary.com/app/?pKey=1605837640341331 and https://www.mapillary.com/app/?pKey=2310169352671621 I am guessing the Red Lion pub is at the original railway station address. sixmaps/DCSBase has the same lot/parcel number on it just west of the train line. Similar looking sign at the cemetery a bit further north. Bugger though I got the number wrong so just fixed that

The QFES/QFRS fire station and SES are in the same building. Both services are often co-sited and/or very close in smaller communities

Judging by the Facebook photo they are fully shared, so there is no actual building division. It may be best to change to a single building way and add/change to a node each for the fire station and SES. There are actually 3 emergency services logos on the sign. SES, QFRS and probably QFES.

The Mapillary images are quite old and not very clear!
