#REVIEWED_BAD #OSMCHA
Published using OSMCha: https://osmcha.org/changesets/148382603

Hello. Thanks for mapping on this project.
One of the validator jobs is to reviews the taggings of highways . Experience earns that traces of highways are regularly wrong tagged.

How to decide when a trace is a path or an unclassified highway (main choices in rural areas)
First, look what they connect. Houses, settlements, villages. Then measure the width of that trace.

In iDeditor

Shortcut : Ctrl+⇧ Shift+M – toggle opens measurement panel
Draw a line between the shoulders of a trace (zoom in very far) and read the distance.
If a trace is max 2 meters wide, tag it as a path.
Wider and connect hamlets, houses and villages should be tagged as unclassified.
Tag residential in urban areas (villages, towns)

In JOSM, use the measure tab or, draw a circle (round building, shortcut Alt-Z when the building plugin is installed)) between the shoulders of a trace and read the distance on the lower toolbar. (don't map that bulding)

osm.wiki/East_Africa_Tagging_Guidelines
This is mentioned about tracks on the
osm.wiki/Routing#Routing_considerations

Quote: Tracks are roads of agricultural purpose. They usually connect fields to farms. The surface sometimes makes them inaccessible for regular cars, or at least limits the speeds to a very slow pace. Tracks should always be avoided for through-going traffic or within urban areas.

Best regards

Hello. Thanks for mapping.
Why do you change correct tagged paths to highway=unclassified?
These tracks are nearly 1.5 mtr wide.
Follow the advises of the highway wiki please.

Thank you for mapping. You have correctly identified the location of most objects and mapped.

Reminder: Please be sure to square all rectangular buildings with the Q key
Reviewed by a validator at random or as requested.

Hello. Thanks for mapping on this project.

You map from ESRI World Imagery,
This caused quite an offset.
Default Bing imagery has to be used.
Be keen on that !
Best regards

Hello. See my comment about tagging highways on another changeset.

Thanks for mapping here.
You did not use the correct tags for highways. Please read this article

Hello. After reviewing your mapping here I have the impression that you are not serious about mapping here.
This is not a playground where you can map/tag everything you want to.
Please keep yourself to the objectives and the way objects need to be mapped.
Follow the mapping course before you map.

You mapped this as a cliff !
Why, This is just cultivated farmland at the same height as the surrounding area.
I remove it.

Inaccurate mapped.
Difficult objects to map here.
You mapped courtyards as a building.
Often buildings here exist of walls (combined with buildings) around a courtyard.
Try to map the contours (even with walls mapped)
Or as a bigger building (including surrounding walls) and map the courtyards as multypolygon.

Hello. Thanks for mapping.
you just mapped a few short pieces of a path. Try to expand the path till it goes over the edge of the task or can connect to other highways.
btw. The tag footway is not to be used here. The path is recommended.
