  • Making a concerted effort to close notes in my area.

    Jump

  • I did try using a - in front of the user name, but their notes still showed up. :/

    Jump

  • I wish Notes Review let you filter out a user. One person makes a lot of notes in my area, and many of them are ones that are low-priority to add. It would be nice to be able to see everything else. I know I can do this on StreetComplete, but it would be helpful to be able to do it on desktop as well.

  • Custom map overlay for progress tracking?

    Jump

  • Yeah, GIMP was my backup plan. It would just be hard to read the street names.

    Jump

  • Unfortunately, I don't know what any of those are. Sound complicated.

  • accessible environment

  • That's the intent of OpenSidewalks, but last I checked it was only available for three cities.

  • has resolved one of your map notes – how to do it yourself?

    Jump

  • When you open openstreetmap.org, on the right-hand side there are some buttons. Click the one that looks like a stack of papers (it'll say "layers" when you hover it) and there will be an option to enable a notes overlay.

    In the editor on the site (called iD) you click the icon on the right that looks like a line and a square (Map Data on hover, or press the U key) and it will have an option to show notes as well.

    Generally I leave notes alone for a week or two to see if the user intends to resolve it themself (I talk to myself a lottttt in notes while I'm surveying) but if it's still there after that, I do my best to resolve it.

  • has resolved one of your map notes – how to do it yourself?

    Jump

  • I hate seeing unresolved notes in my area. They can often sit for over a year, and then we don't know if the information is still relevant. So when someone creates a note in my neighborhood, I try to make the necessary changes right away. I leave the notes layer on in the website and check them out whenever I'm verifying changes in my neighborhood.

  • StreetComplete: Can a inherently rough surface (like sett) ever be "almost seamless"? How do you rate surface qualities?

    Jump

  • I think about the surface qualities like this, descending from best to worst:

    "would I ride rollerblades on this?"

    "would I ride a road bike on this?"

    "would I drive a compact car on this at normal road speed?"

  • Organic Maps: An Open-Source Maps App That Doesn't Suck

    Jump

  • It's very simple in comparison, but for some that's a feature. If it could show bike lanes on roads then it would be all I need in 95% of cases, but since it can't I find myself using OSMAnd with the CyclOSM tile layer a lot.

  • OpenStreetMap congratulations to all the mappers, contributors and donors who made this journey possible. Strong map community 💪 🌎

    Jump

  • StreetComplete is by far the most accessible way to get into OSM, in my opinion. It's like a gateway drug, because eventually you find something missing that you can't add with StreetComplete and then you begrudgingly open iD on your computer, find out how easy it is, and the rest is history.

  • Exciting Update: Mapilio Now Integrated with OpenStreetMap iD Editor! 🌍

    Jump

  • I said something similar last time this was posted.

  • How do you deal with shops that have more than one category?

    Jump

  • There's a whole section on the Canadian page in the OSM wiki for how to map Tim Horton's depending on if they're inside of other places or not, haha.

  • How do you deal with shops that have more than one category?

    Jump

  • I'm dealing with some weird ones, like laundromat cafés and stationery shop cafés. But at least it looks like I can add an amenity tag to most of these. It's just the bar/café that I'm really struggling with.

  • How do you deal with shops that have more than one category?

    Jump

  • In the case of the café/bar, they are distinctly the same place. It's actually something I've run across several times in different places, usually they're more upscale than your typical café. Pretty good venue for a date that you're not sure how long you want it to last!

  • Why do I have to upgrade the tags on every Unmarked Crossing I make in iD?

    Jump

  • Ah, but I'm doing edits all over the map. Selecting 50 crossings is tough when I don't remember which ones I've done this session. They should really just fix this bug.

  • Why do I have to upgrade the tags on every Unmarked Crossing I make in iD?

    Jump

  • It adds crossing:markings=no, which I feel like an unmarked crossing should have by default.

    Jump

  • By "in bulk" do you mean the constance clicking back and forth between the right and left panes to upgrade each one individually?

  • Ah, I didn't see the further examples! This is definitely the right choice. Thank you!
