I haven't done a survey so not sure exactly how it's signposted, but since it's known mostly just as "Terry Hills" I've added short_name=Terry Hills.

Looks like you might have been working on https://tasks.hotosm.org/projects/9831/tasks/ before this one and it inherited some of the setup from that. It's okay then.

Hi, what's the custom imagery you used here? Do we have permissions to use it?

I think mountain_pass=yes is generally the tag for a pass, but many are still tagged as place=locality so I'm not too fussed.

Mentioned in the note that "overwhelmingly populated by broadleaved" so I think that's okay to tag as leaf_type=broadleaved so say it's mostly broadleaved.

way/833049205 was okay, it can be highway=cycleway because it's got the side painted lines and the dotted centre line.

This section in front of BMW way/833049204/history is not a shared path.

I tried to survey this, but couldn't work out how to get access, at both the Pacific Highway onramp and Ku-ruing-gai Chase Road onramp there are no bicycle signs on M1 present.

ah I went looking for this once, seems I was way to far north on the Freshwater side. Maybe next time I'll succeed, thanks for correcting the geometry.

Ideally you'd do both, split the way and mark the section of road as private and if there is a physical barrier like a gate then add barrier=* with access=* on the node.

No worries thanks for confirming.

Hi AntBurnett,
FYI that the waiver we have from Nearmap which was used for the SSSI mapathon has strict condition of "data on bushfire affected areas" per the second waiver at osm.wiki/NearMap_PhotoMaps

So you could only use the imagery during the event and for the bushfire affected areas. Can you confirm if Nearmap imagery was used here or it was simply still on in your editor?

I didn't hear back so have reverted this in changeset/93389097 based on the Mapillary imagery here, though I'm still interested to hear a reply back when you can with further information about your change.

not sure if you read amenity=university#Complex_areas but it says there is no agreed solution for campus names vs uni name. It says you could use the name for the campus name and operator for the uni name, but I don't think that's helpful here. I went to uni here but generally just know it as UNSW and don't think of it as the Kensington Campus. Maybe for now we can just add a tag campus=Kensington

If those school buildings weren't originally build as residential homes then it should be building=school instead of building=house see building=*

93313477 about 5 years ago

There's a lift gate, not sure exactly what the mechanism is but it makes the road itself restricted to drive through even without doing a dropoff/pickup.

93313477 about 5 years ago

Hi could you please confirm your source for this? The signage from 2019 says this is "Taxis only" and directs "All other vehicles" away from this road https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/gn1tchPjWyM9_AB6XGoi5Q

I'll point out is_in=* which you may or may not have seen, and to quote "The is_in tag pre-dates boundary polygons. When a region has a well developed set of boundary polygons the information that could be placed in the is_in tag on an object can usually be derived from the boundaries that contain it, in which case the information in the tag seems redundant. Some contributors have advocated deleting this tag because they see it as equivalent to the boundary information. Other contributors consider that view to be short-sighted at best."

My view is this is redundant because the data is already implied by this being geographically within the NSW relation, and it's a waste of effort to tag every single feature in NSW like this when it can easily be determined.

That might be an issue for the https://github.com/osm-search/Nominatim project, since you're talking about the Nominatim API which is a project which uses OSM data.

For example way/326321292 doesn't have addr:state=NSW tagged, yet Nominatim does infer the state from the NSW state relation see https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/ui/details.html?osmtype=W&osmid=326321292&class=building

However checking the one you mentioned the Bulli Tops place https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/ui/details.html?osmtype=N&osmid=113322767&class=place it is not inheriting the state.

Maybe something to ask Nominatim if that's intentional or not.

Sure you could go round and add addr:state=NSW to all of these, but personally I think it's good enough to determine this from the state relation.

The city (node) is mapped at node/20920968 the suburb (node) is mapped at node/6071581395 there should be one of each because Wollongong is both a city and a suburb. Generally you'd just use a point in polygon check to find which state they are in.
