Please pay attention to the next summarized issues. (see attached document with examples for more info)
Very inaccurate mapped.

Buildings not squared

Clustered buildings

Hello. Thanks for mapping.
Please map more accurate. Often your mappings are far oversized !

Rather inaccurate mapped.

Buildings not squared.

Tagged as building=house rather than building=yes

Connected nodes of buildings to other ones

Why did you add a layer to a building ?

Please do not map landuse objects. These need to be mapped outside TM4.

Poorly mapped buildings.
Connected buildings to highways.
Highways should be connected to each other.
Wrong tagging used on highways.

Need to be mapped all over with correct taggings.

Inaccurate mapped. All buildings more or less rectangular.

No extensions mapped.

Nodes connected to each other

Buildings overlap.
Sorry. These buildings need to be mapped more precisely.

Hello. Thanks for mapping on this project.
One of the validator jobs is to reviews the taggings of highways . Experience learns 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. Use footway only in urban (town) areas.
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.

Important. Please connect highways to each other, where obvious, to get a network which can be used by GPS NAV systems.

Best regards

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
