| 131399099 | about 2 years ago | Thanks. Had done some sliced buildings before and plenty of other (not-so-)simple 3d buildings in OSM. No purpose made tools for making OSM 3d buildings, but I used a 3d CAD program 'OpenSCAD' (which uses a 'programmed geometry' approach rather than a more conventional drawing tool) to make an ideal (not achievable in OSM) model matching to photos and ground survey (for near-ground details and height estimates for these eg the loading area and pods relative to the riverside ground, plus did my own measurement of the outer diameter by standing under it and noting ground positions). Then I played with slicing the wheel and A-frame in OpenSCAD until I had a reasonable accuracy vs complexity compromise, and wrote out coords (x,y,z metres) for all the slice corner points. (Did some geometry roughly by hand in JOSM and saved the resulting file to see the format etc.) Imported all the calculated coords into a spreadsheet to rotate it to match the riverbank angle and convert to lat,long & z height and output as near as I could to a JOSM text file with node and way ids etc etc. Some search and replace with a text editor to finish off, if I remember correctly, then loaded to JOSM to review with Kendzi3d-dev plugin, and repeat until satisfied. Did some manual adjustment of the 'roof' slope angles for the lowest part of the wheel I think. Then lots of checking in JOSM then finally uploaded wheel, A frame+axle and all the ground fixed stuff. It's a monster, and slicing a triangular section wheel is a bit of a nightmare, but it worked. |
| 142809756 | about 2 years ago | Welcome to OSM and thanks for highlighting this change. The turn restrictions you added weren't quite right (should be 1 way 'from', 1 point 'via' and 1 way 'to' in each turn restriction separately. I've added these and the 4 way lights, dropped the no right turn out of Church Hill and very roughly marked the parts of the main roads which are likely now 20mph according to the notices about the changes that I can see. Also improved some alignments locally. Have a look and see if it seems ok, you can probably improve which roads are 20mph if you want. (Routers will take a bit of time to pick up the changes so won't change which turns are allowed for a few days)

| 142924563 | about 2 years ago | Damage and addition of grossly misplaced office node reverted.
|
| 140310173 | over 2 years ago | A quick search suggests this is long planned and permanent, it gets a mention here:
|
| 140063384 | over 2 years ago | I can only repeat what I said before: these ways *are* the A516. They do not have their OSM trunk status because of the connections to the A38, but because the green-signed A516 runs here on its way to the the A50 junction at Hilton. It is just a free-flow merge of 2 nearly equal status A roads. The only part of the A516 that does not carry its own ref is where the carriageway is shared with the main run of the A38 (and following the A516 route actually has its own continuous nearside lane both ways for the short distance until it divides again). By this logic, how much of the continuation of the A516 would be _link? - to the Mickleover S turns/roundabout? |
| 140298176 | over 2 years ago | There are also highway type changes hidden in these changesets, not described in the changeset comments, typically favouring 'unclassified' over previously set residential and tertiary choices. |
| 140063384 | over 2 years ago | You changed the route of the A516 from trunk to trunk_link, I've put it back to trunk, it's not a connection between A roads, it is the A road. |
| 140063384 | over 2 years ago | No, these *are* the A516, reverted. |
| 140228029 | over 2 years ago | It was necessary to reverse all your changes due to the damage caused. All the ways are already mapped. To add a cycle route, you would need to create a 'route relation' which you can name for example 'Ambon-Damgan' and select each of the existing ways that make up that route.
|
| 139701645 | over 2 years ago | @ExoMal, you can (and should) achieve an order of magnitude better alignment accuracy using the UK OSM Cadastral parcels layer. Align the imagery to that (ignoring OSM mapped features) eg using low garden walls and pavement edges. Then align OSM data to that aligned imagery. This avoids repeated realignment to each new (often poorly aligned) version of imagery, and disturbing other users' good mapping |
| 138630673 | over 2 years ago | No problem. Yes, node or area are both ok for amenity, shop etc. The only information you didn't have is that "area" is just a way that is closed into a loop to form the boundary, and the only object types (that can have key=value tags) stored in OSM are really node, way and relation. So landuse areas, buildings etc are just stored as ways, although note you can also use relations (containing an outer and inner way loop(s)) to make areas with holes. |
| 138630673 | over 2 years ago | Welcome to OSM. It is entirely normal for a business or (in this case) amenity that occupies the whole of a building to have the tags on that building outline.
|
| 138512146 | over 2 years ago | And the signposted permissive path? |
| 138512146 | over 2 years ago | Has the bridge at the upper lock been destroyed? Has the mapped permissive path been permanently closed? |
| 138503869 | over 2 years ago | The absence of a paved sidewalk does not make it illegal to walk along a road in the UK. In this case there is a verge; even if not provided it would be entirely legal to walk along the road. Your foot=no removed. |
| 138419601 | over 2 years ago | Welcome to OSM and thanks for adding your London showroom details, although your edit didn't seem to go as intended - you ended up with the London information on the Swansea location and also on a residential area around the London showroom.

| 138067914 | over 2 years ago | Hi Phil,
|
| 138122732 | over 2 years ago | Reverted. This line was not a highway (hence highway=no) but the definitive line of the public footpath which the actual diverges from. It's correctly tagged and correctly exists. |
