Changeset When Comment

Good to hear from you Paul. Hope your mapping is still going well. Not a clue about the AED I’m afraid. That changeset was 2 years ago. I’ve mapped many hundreds of them since then and can barely remember ones I mapped last week 😄
Cheers

Hi ntzm. Thanks for that and thanks for all the fantastic mapping you are doing around Sheffield. I’m probably just being a bit dim but I can’t see what I’ve done to Glen Road. I remember walking through the area doing bits and pieces as I went but not sure what I’ve changed on that road. If I have messed something up please just correct it.
Good to hear from you.

It was a great night wasn’t it.
Yep that certainly sounds like a mistake to me. :)

Hi Jan. We walked it last year - there was no trace of a path after the first 10 metres. I walked the first 100 metres from the eastern end again this week - still nothing on the ground after the ruin. And nothing on the heat map! That was also our experience with the paths that run from the end of the track just north of there up towards Tossal Gran and the pass below Castell d’Aixa - nothing on the ground but thorny bushes. I was going to check later them this week and maybe delete parts of them if there is still nothing on the ground. As some walkers in Xalo said ‘the OpenStreetMap is only usable in this area if you know which of the mapped paths don’t exist’. However - you live here and you have done a lot of good work on the map and if you say those lines should still be on the map I will leave them alone. And if you want to meet at Lliber one day to show me the paths on the ground that would be good. :) Cheers. John

Well spotted Robert. Thanks. Don’t hesitate to correct or change or revert anything else I’ve done like that - I don’t mind :)

Good to hear from you Dan. Thanks for your tactful query about this unlikely bit of mapping. :)
“Unexpected” That’s exactly what we thought when we were standing in front of it. Hard to believe they would put one down there. But the format and info in the window all looked right - reference number, collection times etc - and the metal day insert was set to the right day. I wish I’d taken a photograph to send you. But if there is another box somewhere with the same number then it must be a private delivery box I suppose. Despite its unlikely position it all looked so right that we decided we had to map it. But I don’t mind if you delete it. Im not an expert on post boxes. Cheers. John.

Yes. It’s a brand new running track. The only one in the area. Should be operational now. They were just putting the finishing touches to it when we were there a couple of weeks ago. The sports centre manager was very proud of it.
Good to hear from you.

:) Yes! Thanks. I’ve deleted it because I can’t remember which path it was meant for. Don’t hesitate to change or revert any other bonkers mistakes. John.

Its object 42559274. The footbridge at the southern end of Sheffield railway station. :)

Hi confusedbuffalo. Running/walking friends have complained that their apps show this footway as open again and their routing software is sending them this way. I understand your reason for remapping it as highway=footway - the relation is still there and the blue route website still shows it going over there! But in the spirit of mapping what is there on the ground - there is no footway - I’ve taken that tag back off. I know this creates a clash with the relation. Part of me feels we should delete the relation! Any thoughts? Cheers. John
