Hello duckman, and welcome to OSM. :)

Your edits look perfectly fine to me, except a small formatting quibble: postal codes have a space in them. Should be `addr:postcode=T3B 5K1`, instead of `T3B5K1`.

Ha, I drove past and noticed the "Puffin Palace" vape shop this morning, and was going to add it, but you beat me to the punch! :P

old_name=*#Date_ranges

"When only ranges of years are specified (no month or other details), a single hyphen may be used, such as `old_name:1953-1990 = Ernst-Thälmann-Straße`.

When full dates are specified or the simple notation is not sufficient, a double hyphen ('--') can separate the from and to date - e.g. `amenity:1965--1971-12-18 = school`."

Hi Unarmored5156,

I happened to make some changes yesterday to bus route 10, and I noticed but did not address the fixme notes you added here.

Can I ask what exactly you believe is wrong about the start & end points of the 'inbound' and 'outbound' routes? Your fixme notes say, first of all with respect to the outbound Southcentre route: "Calgary Transit GTFS data is incorrect: this route starts much earlier than the GTFS data states. Should follow 'what's on the ground' principle here; needs survey". The note on the inbound City Hall route says much the same, correspondingly noting that the route "ends much earlier".

This is something I can survey, but it's not clear to me what you're getting at. Right now the City Hall route 'ends' and Southcentre route 'starts'—let's call it the "downtown terminus"—at stop 7380, at 9th Avenue & Centre Street in front of the Calgary Tower. It seems to me that you're suggesting the downtown terminus is at a stop earlier in the route; if so, which one? And how did you come to the conclusion that the current terminus is incorrect?

Oops. :|

Thanks for fixing my typo!

Hi Brett,

Just a heads-up: you had already added The Dirty Duck pub in Inglewood in changeset changeset/173640872. As such I've deleted the one you added in this changeset.

Cheers :)

FYI what you see on the City of Calgary MyProperty map is just the former Adelaide Street right-of-way label. The street itself, and portions of 9th and 11th Streets, were demolished 5-6 years ago to accommodate the Green Line LRT, and they are never coming back. See https://www.calgary.ca/content/dam/www/transportation/ti/documents/transit-projects/green-line/info-notice-adelaide-jeffries-park.pdf (PDF download).

As such I've deleted the roads-under-construction you added in this changeset.

No worries, I know Streetcomplete can be a little weird about aggregating and uploading similar kinds of updates. It just looks kinda suspicious when it uploads changes in cities 150 km apart. :P

Thanks for the reply, happy mapping. :)

Hi Jons,

Keeping in mind StreetComplete contributions are (generally...) contingent on having physically surveyed something in-person, did you *really* survey half a dozen buildings in Calgary and *one* random one in Red Deer?

Hi Quinn,

Thanks for your contributions. If you could elaborate more on what you were doing in your changeset comments it would be much appreciated. E.g. in this changeset you not only were adding houses and other things in Suffield, but also in Teepee Creek, hundreds of kilometres northwest of Suffield.

Thanks :)

Hey there wolfy, just as a heads-up I know that this is *going to* be the case—that all the GameStops in Canada will revert to EB Games—but FYI this hasn't happened at all of these locations yet. I know for a fact this one node/13073497787 is still prominently a GameStop location.

Hi there Djjrjdjrje,

FYI you don't need to (and *shouldn't*) append the name of something like the Dalhousie Station shopping area with "Shopping Centre". You don't need to add this information to the `name`=* tag to distinguish between the shopping area and the LRT station; that's what the other tags like `building=retail`, `shop-mall`, etc. are for.

Please have a read through this for more info: osm.wiki/Names#Names_are_not_for_descriptions

In this case I've deleted the `name`=*, `website`=* and `shop`=* tags here entirely, as it's not just this one building that is "Dalhousie Station": it's the entire shopping area (including the other half-dozen buildings on the south side of the area), which is already on the map as an encompassing way (way/9331945).

Cheers, and happy mapping. :)

FYI I've manually reverted your change to the position of the red-light camera at 14th Street & Heritage Drive, and deleted the speed enforcement relation you created. (See changeset/171107237)

With respect to the camera location: if Organic Maps can't figure out how to implement this it's on them. We're not going to fudge the OSM data.

With respect to the speed enforcement relation you added: FYI municipalities were forced to remove the speed enforcement capabilities of their intersection cameras earlier this year. The provincial government issued a guideline that strictly forbids speed cameras at intersections (in addition to much more stringent photo radar implementation rules elsewhere). See https://www.alberta.ca/intersection-safety-devices . These sorts of intersection cameras only do red-light enforcement now, province-wide.

S'all good. :) Like I wrote above, it gets very tricky downtown. Buildings sometimes have multiple entrances, each with their own address, each with their own postal codes. Some buildings the ground and second floor spaces will have their own postal codes, while the tower above has another. Some on corners have businesses facing the street and the avenue, each having addresses on the street or the avenue, but all sharing the same postal code!

Hello,

I noticed you made a succession of changes to this house, to add what I presume is your moving company, based out of your home. With the mix of business and home tags you added, you ended up having effectively deleted the house itself. I see you're a new mapper, and I presume this wasn't your intent.

I have separated out the home business from the house itself. It will show up on most OSM renderers as a separate dot. See changeset/170730901

Cheers :)

Hello Svetlana,

Respectfully, the name of this park certainly isn't the descriptive "St. Andrew's Heights & West Hillhurst Off-Leash Area", nor is it spelled in all-caps. You also deleted the name from the park area, but added a name back to the patch of scrubby brush in the middle of the park; I suspect that was not your intention.

I've restored the "Karl Baker" name to the park area, and updated the tagging of this area to `leisure=dog_park`. I've added a 'fix-me' note (using the `fixme` tag) asking if someone can confirm the name's source. See changeset/169783392

Just a friendly heads-up: even if a name is not official it does not mean it's not valid. It doesn't need to be "authorized" to be true. I'm probably very similarly skeptical of 'unofficial' names as you are, but we also have a tag for "official name" if it happens to have an official name that isn't the same as its most common one.

*Sorry, typo: the apartments' postal code is T2G 4Z9 (not 0Z9)

169520750 5 months ago

With respect to the postal codes: on the contrary, T2G 0G4 is the correct one. These commercial retail units (CRUs) have their own addresses on 6th Avenue (211, 215, 219, 233, 245) not shared with the Rocky Mountain Court apartment building (221). Their postal code is indeed T2G 0G4, whereas the apartments' postal code is T2G 0Z9. Likewise the pizza joint and Latino restaurant/bakery facing Macleod Trail have their own addresses with an entirely different postal code (T2G 2M1).

In effect you've done what you accused others of doing: copying from Google Maps. You saw an error there (the building's postal code), erroneously assumed that the building's postal code was also used by the CRUs facing 6th Avenue, and introduced an error on OSM based on that false assumption.

I've manually restored the correct postal codes. (See changeset/169729713) Please be careful with postal codes downtown: many buildings have more than one.

The `layer` tag does not need to be used on a bridge segment...
