| 42103555 | over 9 years ago | According to my photos and notes from last week, you're right. |
| 42070241 | over 9 years ago | This section of Sprague is very definitely not a secondary road. It's a narrow residential street that qualifies as "tertiary" only because traffic on it has the right-of-way over that on any of the intersecting streets. |
| 42070535 | over 9 years ago | Where are you getting these "Clark" addresses from? As far as I can tell from searching on the Internet, the Keller Ferry campground and other things in the area have "Wilber" addresses. |
| 41855687 | over 9 years ago | When recording the names of streets, the usual practice is to fully expand abbreviations. It's easy for an end-user to condense "avenue" to "ave" if they need it, but rather harder to tell if "St" should be "street" or "saint". See osm.wiki/Names for the best practices for names. |
| 41837315 | over 9 years ago | Thanks for adding this -- I don't know how I missed it when I was mapping the area earlier this year. My mapping notes show both ends of it, but somehow, I never followed up on mapping the actual trail. Is "bridle path" the actual name for it? When I've been mapping things in Riverside, I've been reserving the "name" field for things that are actually on signposts in the area. |
| 41837363 | over 9 years ago | What's your source for the names here? "Equestrian Lane" is what's on the street signs for the road intersecting Trails/Government Way while "Aubrey L. White" is on the big, fancy, non-official sign. The road leading to the equestrian area doesn't have any name that I've been able to find, and is legally just a driveway (specifically, 3402 North Equestrian Lane). |
| 41818523 | over 9 years ago | I don't think "Servpro of Northwest Spokane" is part of the roadway of Fir Avenue. Could you move it to the building the business is in and mark it with the appropriate business type? The reason you're not seeing the list of business types in the editor is because you've literally attached the node you created to the road -- the only things the editor expects there are road features like crosswalks and traffic lights. If you delete the current version and instead create a "point" in the middle of the appropriate building, you can use the "search" box to look through a list of hundreds of types of features you can mark it with. |
| 41569837 | over 9 years ago | I think someone should invent a time machine so I can go back in time and swat whoever thought "national_park" was a good tag name for "large, generally wilderness-style recreation area". |
| 41569837 | over 9 years ago | I *really* don't like the idea of calling Riverside State Park a "national park": it's an administrative conglomerate of all sorts of things, ranging from the highly-protected Little Spokane area, to Parks Department land, to DNR campgrounds, to land owned by Avista that was logged earlier this year. |
| 41480465 | over 9 years ago | Is this a ski lift, or a trail following a lift? The usual tagging for lifts is "aerialway=chair_lift" (or other "aerialway=" tags for other types of lift; see osm.wiki/Piste_Maps#Ski_lifts) |
| 41461656 | over 9 years ago | I'm not comfortable with armchair-mapping the trails in Mount Spokane State Park. 1) There's been some re-alignment and closure of trails in the park in the past decade. Some Strava tracks correspond to routes that are now closed. 2) Some of the trails in the park are former logging roads that are maintained for vehicle access in the event of a forest fire, and are better mapped as "highway=track" rather than "highway=footway". This isn't always obvious from the air. 3) *Nobody* has a good map of the park trails. Every map I've looked at has major errors, ranging from showing trails that don't exist and omitting ones that do, to routes that are actually a mile or two longer than shown, to trails that haven't had the brush cleared from them in a decade or more. In this edit, one of the two trails you've added has been closed for revegetation for a few years, while the other looked like an informal trail when I mapped its junction with Trail 160, and it may no longer be passible after last fall's windstorm. |
| 41459988 | over 9 years ago | Did something go wrong with this edit? You've got a couple of nodes tagged as "railway=signalGEIGER JCT". |
| 41305745 | over 9 years ago | Are you sure you've got "Boat Ramp" tagged properly? The name and position imply it's a "leisure=slipway", but you've marked it as an "amenity=parking". |
| 41051155 | over 9 years ago | I was hoping you'd know of a better tagging. This sort of situation is exactly the sort of thing "protect_class" is supposed to be for; too bad getting it to render has been an unresolved issue for years. |
| 41202315 | over 9 years ago | My personal choice would be to combine the Indian Canyon and Palisades sections under the name "Palisades Park" (since that's what's on all the signs), while leaving Rimrock Conservation Area. Most of the Greenwood/101/Railroad area is legally part of Greenwood Cemetery, but is de-facto part of the park. The current boundary doesn't represent either the on-the-ground usage or the legal ownership, and I'd like to see the boundaries adjusted to match one or the other. And finally, mapping a rough, unofficial trail is exactly what the "smoothness=very_bad" and "informal=yes" tags are for. |
| 41201727 | over 9 years ago | I plan to head out there this weekend, and I'll be updating the map based on what I find. |
| 41201388 | over 9 years ago | Sontag Park's a bit tricky: ownership of the land it's on is split between Nine Mile Falls School District and the State Parks Department. My decision on where to split between "Nine Mile Elementary", "Sontag Park", and "Riverside State Park" was somewhat arbitrary: I put everything that looked school-like in the school area, the natural-looking forest in Riverside, and the developed area and the parking lot in Sontag. I've shrunk Sontag Park back down (this time with the playground -- if nothing else, your edit pointed out that I'd forgotten to include it the first time around) and re-expanded Riverside. |
| 41196084 | over 9 years ago | Page Airport appears to be gone: the older Bing and Mapbox imagery shows whiteXs at the ends of the runway indicating closure, while large parts of the runway appear overgrown in the latest Mapbox images. |
| 41197664 | over 9 years ago | Are you sure about the in-use status of this runway? The white Xs painted at the ends of the runway in the latest imagery indicate long-term closure, in which case it should probably be tagged as "disused:aeroway=runway" |
| 41201388 | over 9 years ago | Where are you getting the boundaries of Sontag Park from? The boundaries on the ground are a bit fuzzy in the area, but as far as I can tell, most of what you've got as Sontag is actually part of Riverside State Park. In particular, the parking area at 47.78397 N, 117.54904 W is definitely part of Riverside -- if you park there without a Discover Pass, you'll get fined. |
