I don't think landuse=military is really the right land use for a civilian law enforcement training center.

no name or Fremont Freeway would be acceptable values for the name to me. destination=Kerby Avenue is a possible value for the offramp.

Is this a four-way stop? If so, the intersecting node should be highway=stop. Otherwise, there should be a highway=stop node on the way closest to the stop bar or sign. The neighborhood south of TU has a lot of good examples.

Considering that the ramps from the Eastbank Freeway to mile 0 of the Banfield Freeway were motorway_link for at least several years before, I'm curious if there are any arguments stronger than "some copyrighted map shows it different".

32255900 over 10 years ago

I believe this actually gives your argument even *less* basis, mostly because that implicitly suggests intentionally attempting to duplicate Thomas Guide and MapQuest. We're not trying to map other maps, we're not trying to tag for the renderers, we're trying to map what's actually out there. Just because a route crosses a motorway_link doesn't mean that it's not mainline, just means at some point the route takes a ramp. BFD, highway routes do this commonly. The route's already covered by relations (presumably, at least last time I actually loaded the data closely at this interchange), so tagging for the ground truth would have no bearing on what the route implies: They're two totally different entities to start with.

OpenStreetMap uses a functional classification, which doesn't always jibe with what the DOT thinks. I wouldn't assume the connectors that terminate the west end of the Banfield Freeway to be the mainline of anything whatsoever, Banfield ends there; the mainline would be the Eastbank Freeway at this location.

We use a functional classification, not necessarily what DOT calls it, though. I think most people would call this a ramp.

Keep in mind aerial photography from sources that are not in the public domain (such as Apple and Google) cannot be used for OpenStreetMap.

Did the office complex get bulldozed and rebuilt? Against the aerial imagery available, it appears to be on a grassy island in the parking lot. It's preferential to be on the location (not the entrance); check out the indoor mapping article in the wiki.

opening_hours and phone number are in the wrong formats; please check the wiki. Additionally, your office probably is not in the middle of a parking lot; put it in the correct location, please.

Well, if we're going to have US 26 east of Naito and west of East 2x as trunk, might as well make the links match.

32255900 over 10 years ago

First part makes a compelling case for a trunk between 99W and 99E, with the cutoff being, either Milwaukie or 21st.

32230005 over 10 years ago

Generally speaking, if there's more than one at-grade intersection, it's a surface expressway in the Oregon/Washington sense (of a freeway with intersections), even if there are fully separated interchanges between intervening intersections. Motorway would be for situations where it's a one-off or very rare instance for at-grade intersections (like I 80 in Wyoming and Utah, or the Keystone Expressway in Oklahoma). 500 would be a poor fit for motorway as, out of 9 junctions, 3 or 4 of them are at-grade: That's nearly batting .500 there...

I'm a little stumped on where Bluffs and Braggs stations are coming from...I can't seem to find anything station-like around Bluffs...

32255900 over 10 years ago

Trying to work out why any part of US 26 remotely qualifies as a trunk, which would generally be typified by a limited access route; in this case, the Ross Island Bridge really should be primary and connected by a series of primary_link to anything that isn't a ramp directly attached to Naito Parkway, which would obviously be trunk_link.

Let's try to avoid priority creep on the highway=* tag, it's almost never justified but does greatly complicate things for routers and mappers.

32230005 over 10 years ago

Further, there's no real justification for changing the highway tag for such short segments of highway, the characteristic of SR 500 doesn't change during it's entire length; the map should reflect it's consistent nature. Another similar highway that is consistently tagged correctly of the same characteristic would be OR 224 between Milwaukie and Clackamas.

32230005 over 10 years ago

WA 500 doesn't make any sense as a motorway due to it's short length and high number of at-grade intersections (at least 2 in 4 miles). Typically, motorways have no at-grade intersections, or extremely rare. Good example of a motorway with at-grade intersections would be US 412 in Oklahoma, with a ratio of 1 intersection in approximately 105 miles.

Not sure what happened on 4th Street, but it seems to be borked compared to before; the no lane change spot was already tagged out and the geometry's no longer right from Frisco to Denver...

This requires two greetings.

Welcome to OpenStreetMap! I see you're mapping in an area I monitor. This may require mapping as a site relation with more detail mapping for the areas within. I'll try reaching out to them soon to work with the management there to get the detail mapping right (as I've previously done with other comercial resorts such as the Eufaula Lake KOA).

Welcome to Oklahoma! As you've no doubt experienced, Native America is easily among the most hospitable regions of the US to travel in. Please, feel free to message me if you're heading east, I'll gladly help you find the best gems Green Country has to offer!

I'm a little confused about what was being done here.
