| 169309546 | 5 months ago | Hi, are you sure Lancaster Motorhomes and Caravans no longer does sales, only rentals? Their website seems to be entirely about sales. |
| 169173702 | 5 months ago | I merged this with the boundary stone node on the road, based on geograph evidence and the official list entry in the National Heritage List for England. If this is wrong, and you’ve surveyed it, and the boundary stone really is inside a barn, then please revert my edit. Otherwise please double-check what you’re doing when you make edits. It seems really unlikely that a boundary stone would actually be inside a barn. |
| 169192748 | 5 months ago | If you’re going to use AI to help with doing building outlines, could you please check what it produces before you submit it? There’s some pretty weird stuff going on in the middle of all these buildings. I’ve fixed it in changeset/169218146 |
| 169171659 | 5 months ago | Heya, thanks for your updates to the priory. You deleted the electric bike charging socket — was that intentional? Does the priory no longer have electric bike charging for customers? Thanks :) |
| 169169002 | 5 months ago | Heya, thanks for your edits recently. :) Did you know that you can press the ‘Q’ key to automatically square the corners of buildings when you add them? It makes regular buildings easier to draw. Please also note that you should align the aerial imagery with the OSMUK Cadastral Parcels overlay (in the ‘Background Settings’ panel on the right in the editor) before editing, to account for parallax errors in the imagery. The error can be 0-3m in both dimensions and varies from village to village, so it’s important to get the offset right. Happy to answer any questions you might have about this :) Happy editing! |
| 169057122 | 5 months ago | I thought it would be something like that! Hope you’re well :) |
| 169057122 | 5 months ago | This apartment block now has identical values for addr:housenumber and addr:flats, is that intentional? |
| 168717791 | 6 months ago | Hah, yes, I can see how that could happen. Thanks for fixing it (For anyone else who reads this, it was fixed in changeset/168764186) |
| 168717791 | 6 months ago | leisure=outdoor_seating outdoor_seating=yes doesn’t make any sense. Why make this change? |
| 168482986 | 6 months ago | Thanks 👍 |
| 168482986 | 6 months ago | Heya, wrt node/3071545092, mapping a cattle grid and adjacent gate as one node is a pattern which National Trust have been using quite a lot in their recent edits to add walking routes in the area. If it’s something which you think should be strongly avoided, you might want to drop user NTTrailsLSE a message and work out an alternate tagging scheme with them. :) |
| 168435518 | 6 months ago | Thanks :) |
| 168387542 | 6 months ago | > OSM not based on what you see on the ground? Yes, but because of the rights of way laws in the UK defining RoWs as not necessarily the same as paths on the ground, the Definitive Map also has to be used to feed in to the OSM mapping. Navigation apps should factor in the trail_visibility=no hint and ford=yes and weight their routing so it goes over the bridge rather than the ford. In some cases, people have re-tagged historical footpaths (which are still legal rights of way) as disused:highway=footway, and kept the designation=public_footpath and foot=designated tagging. I’m a bit hesitant about that here because there’s not going to be any physical sign of the ford across the Kent even if it’s commonly used. It’s a limestone-bedded river, so there will be no ruts in the riverbed. But if you’re certain the ford is completely out of use (rather than only occasionally used) then please go ahead and change the tagging to disused:highway=footway. |
| 168387542 | 6 months ago | Hiya, thanks for checking this. The path is still a legal right of way (according to the Rights of Way overlay) so needs to be mapped, as it indicates a legal crossing of the river. I’ve re-added it in changeset/168390611, but changed it to trail_visibility=no to reflect your survey Thanks |
| 168065954 | 6 months ago | Thanks for your reply :) It’s interesting that all the imagery aligned with each other, but the Cadastral Parcels (or a high-accuracy GPS trace) are the source of ground truth for the UK, as they’re higher precision (and hence easier to align to) than aerial imagery. It might be that Horton has a systematic parallax error in aerial imagery due to its altitude or the fact it’s in a fairly narrow valley. I’ve reverted it as changeset/168352371 |
| 168151830 | 6 months ago | 👍 |
| 168151740 | 6 months ago | Reverted in changeset/168177440 because you’re still applying ID’s suggested edits without checking them. Please reply to my messages and we can sort this out :) |
| 168151830 | 6 months ago | Heya, thanks for updating this. Is the shop at way/1409828650 really called Haltwhistle shop, or is that a copy/paste error? |
| 168103338 | 6 months ago | I’ve reverted this as changeset/168115080 because it, like several of your edits before, contained several cases of applying suggested edits without doing even basic checks on them. |
| 168065954 | 6 months ago | Hiya, did you align the aerial imagery before realigning all the geometry here? The Bing aerial imagery is offset by about -3.15,0.47m in the middle of Horton, compared to OSMUK Cadastral Parcels (ground truth). It looks like you’ve broken the alignment of the Gray Bridge, which I had carefully aligned in https://osmcha.org/changesets/167095100. It’s possible I made a mistake with the alignment, so I’d like to check with you. Thanks. |
