Waiting on updated imagery, but this has been in the works for a few years now

Tossing this in here: note/4494271

It's not related but I want to be able to find it back in the future if needed :)

I did use Esri World Imagery, though. It's more up to date here than Bing, albeit a tad blurry

I picked an old source from dropdown box in JOSM. I did not, in fact, use "USGSHydroCached" national hydrography dataset

I added the name "State Highway DD" to reflect that locals refer to this road as though it were part of Route DD, however MoDOT makes it quite clear that they don't consider this part of the route.

It should not be added to the route relation for Missouri Route DD.

Seems like old_ref was dropped 8 months ago. I didn't know enough context around here at the moment to decide whether to replace it or not, but I did fill in this name gap. This way was unnamed and between two other ways named Old State Highway N. I don't know if this name is correct, but I went with it for the sake of consistency

These bits were accidentally left tagged as trunk while the rest was demoted to primary a while ago.

In this changeset I made what I think is a reasonable assumption that the camera is strapped to a power pole. I took a look at Bing StreetSide imagery, and it seems like an ok spot for ALPR placement.

It could totally be on a dedicated post, though, so we're waiting on more info from ground survey.

I carried Rio Road south to Snipe Road.

The western campus border is the city line, so I glued those together.

Previously, the adjacency was approximate, and some overlap was apparent. This was less semantically correct.

Thanks for adding the roundabout and fixing the classification

By "semantics" I'm mostly referring to connectedness such as (1) parking aisles connecting to parking areas at their boundaries and (2) a paved footway connecting to the gazebo it leads to.

I also added some trees 🌳

This also connects up some isolated drain segments I added many moons ago

179020136

The "North" directional prefix is also fine here, but I don't see it in open county GIS data so omitted it. I didn't bother checking if TIGER still had it, probably does. Did STL county drop its locator grid?

Also the south unit should be incorporated into the relation, though exactly how should be considered

163267217

It's not *technically* renamed yet (the EO merely directs the Interior Dept. to pursue renaming it), but it will be renamed within a month. I don't think it will be that controversial.

This changeset elevated the existing tags from the enclosed way to two relations: one referring to the outer entity and one referring to the inner entity. Both entities are officially called "Maple Woods Natural Area", which is very confusing.

The outer entity is recognized by the National Park Service as Maple Woods Natural Area, and the Missouri Conservation Department treats it as if it were one of its conservation areas with an idiosyncratic name. Gladstone parks and rec calls it Maple Woods Nature Preserve or simply Maple Woods Preserve. This outer entity is NOT a natural area in the sense of the state natural area program despite its name.

The inner entity is recognized by MDC as the "true" natural area under the state natural areas program.

It would fix everything to rename the larger/outer entity as "Maple Woods Conservation Area", which is actually how it *was* mapped on OSM despite that not being an official name. The sign on the ground says "Maple Woods Natural Area" when referring to the whole outer entity.
