|---|---|---|
| 60705829 | almost 2 years ago | Hi, if I remember correctly, anything on the corporate campus of Intel is private. I believe there are “private property” signs at various entrances. |
| 61723517 | over 4 years ago | The majority of streets do not have any posted speed limit. Many streets may be covered by the default speed limit of 25 mph or 20 mph. I prefer to map speed limits based only on posted signs as there is less potential confusion, but other mappers will fill in speed limits based on their knowledge of default speed limits. |
| 61723517 | over 4 years ago | This was using Bing streetside imagery to look at the signs. osm.wiki/Bing_Maps#Streetside_imagery For example, you can clearly see a 35 MPH sign here:
From this, there is a Node created here:
The maxspeed=35 mph tag is also added to the adjacent Way. A single speed limit sign is not enough to determine the speed limit for the whole road, so I did traverse the whole road looking for other speed limit signs. |
| 68010459 | over 6 years ago | Thanks for updating the map. Let me know if you have any questions. |
| 63479025 | almost 7 years ago | Paul, I'm not sure what you are getting at here. The purpose of this changeset was to update a TriMet Bus route. What used to be known as bus route 4 has been split into bus routes 2 and 4. That being said, many of the roads that make up these bus routes have some bicycle lane or access tags on them. But again, the purpose of this changeset was updating public transportation bus route information in OSM. |
| 40142300 | about 7 years ago | These types of nearby nodes were originally created from the Portland building import osm.wiki/Portland,_OR_Bldg_import In the original dataset, the points were exactly the same and during the import they were automatically separated a little bit. In most cases it would make sense to separate them even more, or even possible terrace the building into sections (for example for row houses each with their own address). |
| 40142300 | about 7 years ago | I don't see any nodes that node/3386481617 is a duplicate node of. Which node do you think is a duplicate of 3386481617? |
| 62893585 | about 7 years ago | I re-connected the transit route relations for bus routes 32, 33, and 99 based on your changes. I moved the bus stop and deleted road and sidewalk names with "Clackamas Community College Transit Center" as it looks like that no longer applies. It's hard to tell what is there without aerial photos through so hopefully I didn't mess things up. |
| 58671806 | about 7 years ago | It looks like you changed building=yes to building=commercial. These are all retail businesses, so shouldn't building=retail be better? building=commercial seems like it would be more like an office building. Or just leave building=yes and let the rest of the tags on the object describe its function. |
| 62020302 | over 7 years ago | I prefer operator="United States Postal Serivce" as well instead of "USPS". Also, I delete name tags on post boxes when that information is wholly contained on the operator tag. Also, I only edit post boxes while after verifying their location. |
| 61541084 | over 7 years ago | Ok, it looks like OSM was mostly up-to-date, except for 2 missing hair salons (Salon Muse and Malva), which I've now added. Here are the businesses that used to be in the Macadam Center: Holliday Card Shoppe, 5115 SW Macadam Ave
Macadam Nail Boutique, 5119 SW Macadam Ave
DocuMart, 5121 SW Macadam Ave
5123 SW Macadam Ave
Picture Perfect, 5125 SW Macadam Ave
Finicky's Bagel Cafe, 5127 SW Macadam Ave
Roberts of Portland, 5131 SW Macadam Ave
MedData, 5125 SW Macadam Ave Ste 140

| 61541084 | over 7 years ago | another option besides landuse=construction would be landuse=brownfield for a vacant lot that used to have a building (both are shown as a brown area in the default map). Based on the other construction around this area, I suspect that something new will be will be built here fairly soon.
|
| 61541084 | over 7 years ago | Rather than using a name "construction site", which is a general description instead, I've changed this to remove the name tag and changed landuse=retail to landuse=construction. Once the construction is complete, there may be a sign posted with an actual name on it. |
| 61198729 | over 7 years ago | A lot of new Nodes created with this changeset are overlapping existing Nodes. This triggers the JOSM warning "Nodes at same position" and breaks things like routing and transit route relations. Can you merge all of these duplicate Nodes with existing Nodes? For example:
|
| 60563050 | over 7 years ago | Note: I've reverted this changeset fully in:
First of all, this section of road is not a dual-carriageway. There is no physical separation between the forward and backward direction. I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion to make this a dual-carriageway. However, if this were correct to separate this into a dual-carriageway, then this changeset still would have had problems: Transit Route Relations:
Admin boundaries:
Sidewalks:
Bicycle Lanes:
Turn restrictions:
Lanes:
If you can elaborate on the rationale for making this section of Southeast Division Street a dual-carriageway, then I can assist you in making these types of edits correctly. Again, I recommend JOSM as it has a warning system built-in that would alert you to a lot of these problems. |
| 57956522 | over 7 years ago | I switched these from "ref=OR 141" to "unsigned_ref=OR 141" since there are not any 141 route shield signs posted. I also filled in the rest of the route from ODOT's website and created route relation objects |
| 36699694 | over 8 years ago | I've delete the relation for only_left_turn heading south on NW 9th Ave onto NW Hoyt St. The left turn sign only applies to the left-most lane. The right lane can go straight or turn right. I've updated the data. |

Generally, a shop that sells and rents bicycles would be tagged as shop=bicycle with service:bicycle:rental=yes. A place strictly for renting bicycles could be tagged as amenity=bicycle_rental (that is used for those Biketown PDX stations). Generally in OSM we still use the same bike shop tagging to describe shops that deal with electrically assisted bicycles. Based on the GenZe website, I could also see this as being tagged as a shop=motorcycle as they do sell scooters |
| 46967476 | over 8 years ago | It makes sense that the router would tend to prefer other routes that don't go through highway=living_street as you would be required to drive really slowly on that section. However, in reality there is no such restriction (apart from the fact that you are more likely to have to slow down to avoid hitting cyclists).
|
| 46967476 | over 8 years ago | Greenways should not be tagged as highway=living_street. Rather than changing the highway tag on the Way objects for the roads, look at tags like sidewalk=* and cycleway=lane where sidewalks and bike lanes exist as part of the road. The Greenway designation should probably best be captured with a bicycle route relation. For editing relations, it's best to use JOSM instead of iD. Living Street is a concept that is mainly used in Europe for residential streets where pedestrians and cars share the road. In order to be safe, the speed limit is typically "walking speed" or about 3 mph. Most minor roads in the USA have speed limits between 20 and 30 mph so would not be characterized as a highway=living_street but rather highway=residential or highway=unclassified. |
