On way/907726590 I am confused by the combination of highway=footway and foot=no

Is it or is it not a footway?

Hi, Your change set comment really does not say what it was that you were improving. And looking at the edit I don't see any substantial change either. Can you be a little more clear about what your edit is about?

Thanks!

A signed speed limit of 32 MPH? Seems highly unlikely to me. I guess I’ll need to drive by there this week to check this out.

You should merge the existing building nodes with the building outlines you import. Otherwise you end up with duplicate houses and, depending on your editor, warnings about buildings within buildings.

re: way/892777482

Are you sure about this informal path? Last I hiked the area (about 6 months ago) I saw no evidence of it. And there are no GPX tracks on OSM showing people have gone that way. I don’t see it on any of the normal JOSM aerial imagery either.

Thank you for noticing and calling it to my attention. I have fixed it in changeset/107999158.

That must have been an early "chunk" on the import as the validation scripts eventually had code to specifically check for it. I don't see near by areas with the same issue but will run some searches to see what other "chunks" had that same problem.

Thank you for fixing some of my mistakes!

I think I have corrected the rest in that area now.

Wow! I really messed up there. Thank you for pointing this out!

I think I have corrected it now in change set changeset/106104718

Please let me know if I have missed any.

To the best of my knowledge, the accepted tagging for a cattle guard is barrier=cattle_grid. Makes sense that a router could have troubles with any barrier=* that does not include a motor_vehicle=yes. I guess it is a problem with the accepted tagging.

I will start adding that to any new cattle guard that I map. Thank you for improving my mapping!

p.s. Having once lived in an old ranch house where the main access (dirt) road had a cattle guard I am pretty familiar with them. :)

I assume that some router has decided that barrier=cattle_grid should default the same as barrier=gate (i.e. access=no). Care to share which router has this problem. Might want to put in a bug report on the router's project page.

Is the name really "Sand Mine"? That sounds more like a description to me.

Last time I was on Ortega Highway, less than a week ago, there was no signs pointing to this quarry and giving it a name, etc.

As much as I'd like that section double tracked (or even just a siding), that just does not exist today.

Can you use the lifecycle prefix on the siding you added? See: osm.wiki/Lifecycle_prefix

That will keep both the default renderer at OSM and the open railway map renderers showing what is actually on the ground now, not what is proposed for sometime in the future.

Thanks!

A change set covering all the area between Colorado Springs, Colorado and Oceanside, California?

Makes it hard for us located somewhere in that bounding box to see what you did.

Could you please keep the size of the bounding box a bit smaller in the future?

Thanks!

Regarding relation/12030996 since there is a barrier=chain across the service way there really is no need for a turn restriction.

Regarding relation/12030995 that should not exist at all as far as I can tell.

I will add an access=no to the chain barrier (not really needed but it won’t hurt) and remove the two turn restrictions.

For what it is worth, I walked right by that chain barrier yesterday and failed to really even notice it. :)

How did you determine these turn restrictions? While I admit that relation/12030996 is a bad idea there are no signs on the street prohibiting it.

And for relation/12030995 there are no signs prohibiting it and there is no reason not to turn right.

Edit should have been made on non-import ID of n76

Edit should have been made on non-import ID of n76.

oops! this should have been from user account n76 instead of n76_oc_import

No. I manually traced them from Bing imagery.

Under the n76_oc_import account I have been importing addresses from the Orange County GIS and that dataset had building outlines also apparently from Bing but the quality was so bad that I decided to import only the address and, if it exists, height data, as points.

I walked the trail adjacent to this neighborhood yesterday and took that as a nudge to trace the houses when I got home.

Are you sure about this speed limit change? I drove on this "40 MPH" section through that intersection the other week and did not see any changed speed limits. It was still 45 MPH to the intersection of Vaquero, then 35 MPH continuing south/west on Los Mares.
