+ changeset/131567356's conversation

Alright, as Zeke suggested in #local-vermont in OSM US Slack, I tried to revert the changes, but before uploading, please have a look at it (I pinged you there) and please tell me if there's something wrong with it which should be fixed / still reverted etc.

"We had also communicated which areas each of us was working on. So that is doubly frustrating for me. This could have been avoided. " Yes, actually you're right in this case. Sorry, my bad!

Okay, then we should probably leave the changeset as is because then it would create a lot of conflicts then + unnecessary redrawings of what I did, so it would cause more damage. But if your opinion is different, let's go with that but I won't deal with the amount of "merge" conflicts for sure

My method to map forests are to map over track roads since I don't see any sense of mapping those woodland parts separately. (But this is me)

Yes you can revert the changeset, but then please finish the rest of the county, I'll move back to doing WV then.

I used NAIP too but I didn't write into the sources since NAIP was used for checking.

+ Esri World Imagery Clarity (Beta) to determine where it's wooded more or not in the past

Hey Shyshka! Thanks for improving Greene County, PA's forest landcover. I actually created a tasking manager project back in the day(~2-3 years ago) for that, so we mappers can follow where the project is currently at. If you want to use it, please mark where you mapped, so if other mappers want to map in the area, don't overlap with your areas.

Keep up the good work! :)

Oh hey SamuelH123000!

Welcome to the OSM! Thanks for improving Ohio!

If you want to get to know the OSM community more and get some tips and tricks on mapping, I suggest both the Discord and OSM US Slack community as a starting point:

No landuses were mapped, just I used a predefined changeset comment in JOSM and forgot to remove "landuses" :)

The reason for this big changeset is that I aligned the riverbanks of Connecticut river. Still there needs a lot to be aligned. I also used Esri World Imagery for tracing to compare the status of the river and it's way off than what's in GIS data portals &c.

Hey Martin, thanks for your efforts in mapping forest landcover in Western Virginia! I would like to have a comment, that we mappers prefer to see proper changeset comments, so instead of Update I would prefer "Mapped woods and added buildings" or something similar.

+ I mapped into Giles County, VA.

+ Esri World Imagery Clarity Beta is used for imagery, but I forgot to add that

Right now for some reason it doesn't render. I don't know why, because the roles are correct, the connections are correct (there are no gaps). Probably just I don't see the problem.

No problem and about what you said that there are grassland areas which need to be removed: I'll do it in a few secs :)
