The Maps Team at Facebook is excited to announce RapiD Editor Partner Testing

Wow this is so cool, huge time saver. A few immediate comments are:

  • No all roads were picked up and it’s unclear to me why as they visually all looked the same. Why are certain segments picked up and others are not?

  • Not sure the system is snapping every intersection. Is there a snap tolerance?

  • I did notice road lines being drawn over buildings in the image (where small building clusters/villages were). The buildings themselves were not mapped.

  • Having road tag info readily available would be nice. Even if basic attributes such as “paved vs unpaved”

  • I’m assuming the road vectors have been preprocessed and RapiD is not doing this on the fly?

Nice work overall. Excited to use this tool more.
