hi what does opening_hours=「「「 mean?

Hi, per common practice and documented at osm.wiki/Highways#Carriageways only where there is a physical separation between the two directions of travel should you use two ways in OSM. If there is no physical separation, a single way along the centre line is the way to go. I've rolled back this change to how it was before with single ways.

https://www.bluemts.com.au/info/towns/mt-victoria/ mentioned it as Pulpit Rock, my guess is both this one and the one overlooking Gross Valley both are known as Pulpit Rock. I checked my photos of the area and couldn't find it signposted.

Is this oneway for bicycles? Looking at the tags before hand at https://osmlab.github.io/osm-deep-history/#/way/298288936 it said forward bicycles were allowed but not backward, by adding the bicycle=yes tag it's now ambigious if bicycles are allowed in both directions. If only one direction is allowed then should the bicycle tag should be omitted for the bicycle:forward and bicycle:backward tags? If allowed in both directions then we don't need :forward and :backward tags.

For visibility here, Briggs Soria messaged me privately, they went through and removed the content copied from the copyrighted maps.

I assume you're referring to https://maps.blacktown.nsw.gov.au/, the terms say "Information obtained from this site must not be commercialised, reproduced, published or distributed without written permission from Blacktown City Council.". This is not compatiable with OpenStreetMap which publishes data under the ODbL license.

If you look at Blacktown City Council maps, and then enter that data into OSM then it could be considered a breach of copyright and BCC's terms, so unfortunately we can't refer to BCC's maps.

Sources we do have permission to use like the DCS imagery can be used, or of course information you derive from an ground survey.

Hi, If you're systematically copying data from BCC MapsOnline we need copyright permission to do that, can you confirm if this is under a compatible license? Otherwise this data will need to be removed to avoid breaching copyright.

For context this change was made due to a Data Working Group request about closed tracks appearing on the map,

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.

94157953 about 5 years ago

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.

94137392 about 5 years ago

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.

93440343 about 5 years ago

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?
