The relation you added is not required. Simple relations for boundaries are used where more than one way is required to define the object, that is not the case here.

The changeset comment "These places are important" is subjective. Far better to state something like "added park in my local area."

I have added the playgrounds to these parks. I have also refined the boundary of Greenlow Park. I hope that is an improvement.

The paths you have added are questionable ... particularly for the imagery used as that shows little evidence of the paths. The inner path of Walara Reserve does not connect to anything... and it should.
Be aware that entries like yours are being examined for fictitious objects to attract Pokemon things .. Please state your source for the paths you have added.

Hi,
When you added the library .. there was a node already tagged as the library ... this causes 2 to be present on the map when only one should be present. The polite way is to use the old node as one corner of the new building .. and then copy the tags across to the way (the building) and edit them to suit. I have done the crude method and simply remove the old node.

You can check for these duplicates by looking on the OSM map (using it as a layer/map in your editor).
Hope that helps.

Hi,
Some comments;

1) No name ... so the change set description is wrong.. Possibly 'Add building" ?
2) Building is not 'square' as in the corners are not square... in ID select the object (the building) and press the 'S' key .. see osm.wiki/ID/Shortcuts#Modifying_objects
3) you can get the address of the building from the LPI Base Map for even more detail.

Hope that helps.

The Community center does no appear in the stated source - LPI Imagery .. where did it come from?

I have separated up the tennis courts, added hockey fields and bowls ... add basketball courts to the school ..

Hi,
You will find the LPI Base Map to have better boundaries for things like parks. Also easier to track creeks.

45764033 almost 9 years ago

Park way/471661432 has a name, Immarana Place Reserve - can be found on the LPI Base Map .. and the LPI Base Map has better boundaries ... corrected.

Please refer to the LPI Base Map for more detail as you add/change stuff.

Objects do not exist in the stated source - LIP Imagery. .

OSM data is used by map.me, OSMAnd, Locus maps, Mapbox etc etc... lots of people and organizations use this data. They trust it to be real, not fantasy.

Hi,
Welcome to OSM!
If you look at the imagery then you can see that the oval is also used for soccer.. best entered as a rectangular pitch with sport=soccer .. this renders well on the map.

Regarding the park .. if you look on the LPI Base Map you can see the legal boundaries better ... the pointy bit to the west is not truncated.

Hope that helps.

What discussion has taken place for this change? None? Then I suggest you start one on the talk au group before you do more.

45612361 almost 9 years ago

I did intend to take this out.. mutter mutter.. arr ... I did! :) way/459153649 removed culvert and layer at 5:28 29/1/17 ... I did not recombine it with each side.

My primary reason for contacting you was the use of the LPI base map to check for bridges... most usefull when it is covered by trees.

44342209 almost 9 years ago

I did remove the culvert ... did not mention it.

As regards water/road crossings .. where I cannot determine it ..I leave it off .. yes it throws errors ... but it does not introduce false data. If it were compulsory .. then I'd chose ford as being the most disruptive to traffic and therefore least to cause problems if it is actually a culvert. And in that situation I'd leave some fixme/note behind to indicate the problem and its armchair solution.

45624891 almost 9 years ago

Minor detail .. again ...

The service station .. that is a duplicate of a node you have there .. best practice is when you make a way (this building) that duplicates a node .. it to remove the node.

The node does carry the name United 24 ... I think that is a brand .. use the brand= tag for that?

45582726 almost 9 years ago

The area is rather confused!

I have remove the construction way that way still there .. so that is done.

However a number of other things ..

The Cafe restaurants (note spelling) way/469596001 ... I'd think that is part of the Linq apartments building? A the moment this is tagged as a separate building that overlaps the Ling Apartments... not good. If they are part of the Linq apartment building .. then tag them as individual nodes .. one for cafe another for restaurant ...if they are individual.

The Linq apartments building is not very 'square'. It also has a strange angle to the building on the western edge.

Hope that helps.

Hi,
Where Hill End Road crosses Grattai Creek there is a bridge, you had a culvert. If you look on the LPI base map, zoomed in there, road has black lines on ether side to indicate the bridge ...hard to make out with the shadows in the imagery. I have cahnged it .. I am correction Hill End Road to secondary as per the LPI Base Map.

45453892 almost 9 years ago

Oh ...
side note...
your changeset says the source is LPI Imagery + OSM .. I would add 'personal survey' ... or 'personal knowledge' that would help those looking at it to understand that the imagery is not the only thing you used.

45453892 almost 9 years ago

Everything is 'out of date' as soon as it is produced :) I look at maps as a guide .. what you see is real, what is on a map can be 'out of date'. If you follow your philosophy you'll end up with a blank map ...
I'd rather map the bits that I know are residential - removing them from industrial.

45548083 almost 9 years ago

noname=yes is used to indicate there is no name. If you don't know the name ... just leave the tag off, if you know there is no name then use the noname=yes tag.
The basic guide is to map what you can see, don't make stuff up.

The OSMwiki is a fair guide ...
name=*

noname=*

There is a lot of detail on the OSMwiki ... don't let that confuse you .. just get the basics first. Ok?

45578820 almost 9 years ago

Wrong? Shades of grey more like.

There is the OSMwiki .. as a guide (not a rule .. OSM does not have may real rules)

pedestrian highway highway=pedestrian

overview of highways osm.wiki/Highways

Keep mapping.. particularly the stuff you use.

landuse=forest means the trees are intended to be harvested. If you mean a collection of trees then natural=wood can be used.
