| Mapillary 360° capture part 2: bike | I think Gopro uses a twin lens solution compared to multiple camera setup of the streetview car. A single lens covering 180deg will always have problems with distortion/blurriness on the edges with current technology. |

| is this "open"streetmap? | Let’s hope that nobody turn into Reddit mods. |
|
| junction circular | Well, that’s what my initial thoughts are. Except, all these ‘corrections’ are done by corporate mapper beyond the Pacific ocean. I wish I could be arsed to track down and check all the little funny edits that they make. |
|
| Newish L5 gps phone testing. | Sorry if it was unclear. The first venture was just plain gpx data. After that at a different location, I averaged a point for 5++ minutes and collected GNSS data using android’s gnss tools, then trying to ‘post process’ the gnss.log file using the open source GNSS analysis software. Failed to install this software despite repeated tries and various solutions available online, so currently I am giving it a rest. |

| Eight things that I've learned while mapping my neighborhood | That’s a common fact (educated observation) of mapping in these regions - using data from Google. A lot more probably comes from Streetview. Partly due to ignorance of copyright laws, and partly due to #dontgiveashit mentality. The clever ones put source = local knowledge, and then who are you to judge where they get their info from? A conundrum for DWG for sure. My suggestion is just let things be unless they are so obviously copied from Google. If for some unforeseen reason that ABC called for a strikedown on those edits, then purge and redo. |

| By the way, this whole account is a joke but... | Just ban this user for shits and giggles.. |
|
| High danger in current OSM management of motorways junctions | Before the lane tagging movements starts to get hold in my country, I (and most other locals) used to draw the junction where the exit lanes start. Same thought, better to start early than late. |

| House | M.D? |
|
| Some thoughts on SotM 2022 | Resistance is futile.. -Borg- |
|
| Apple Data Team #ADT multiplying Nodes on Coastlines | maybe part of their performance index evaluation. more nodes = moarr money. Hence the seemingly inability of paid xxxx mappers to draw a straight line with just 2 nodes. Maybe. ;) |
|
| Days gone! | You should go back and follow the sequence and re-correct it. All the correct segment is still there. When doing bus routes it (almost) always happen like that when a split way and non-split meets, and you use the sort function iirc. |
|
| Adding Microsoft Building Footprints To OSM With MapRoulette: Why And How | just additional info, there’s a menu item in one of the JOSM’s plugin (can’t remember which) that allows you to de-select all the nodes in whatever you selected. BTW, thank you for the great article. Definitely saving it for future reference. |

| Openstreetmap-Carto – Democracy Or anarchy? | I just want trees to be rendered individually! Jillions upon jillions of them. |
|
| New mobile editor: Every Door | Tree mappers… those are a special kind of breed. Something they won’t be able to finish before the end of time. |
|
| Time to talk about landuse=residential | Some people just tag landuse residential just so that it is rendered as the size/outline of the town/city at lower zoom level. |
|
| Do NOT edit the map of Ukraine until the end of war! | DWG/OSMF under the law of some ambiguous criminal code of Ukraine? |
|
| The unfixable state of township boundaries | Ohio, you be you! Kidding aside, I personally believe that municipality should be excluded from administrative boundary hierachy. Map the boundary as something else. Country>state>district>sub-district(sometimes)>place(neighborhood/town/etc). At least we know the top 3 or 4 levels would never cross each other. Address and land titles follow this format anyways. IMHO of course. |
|
| Some JOSM error message are fatal if you are not careful | Thank you. will try. hopefully not all is lost. Also bug report. |
|
| Simple F9P (rtk) howto | Interesting. The price is a bit steep for a developing country, but the bigger obstacle is getting available local NTRIP stream. Anybody got any idea if positions using averaged dual band gps phones (example Mi 8 or newer) can approach the decimeter level comparable to this board? |
|
| Let's map some road names in Klang Valley, Malaysia! | Ahh… let’s get the street names from Streetview/obvious-source-not-to-named thing. Got it! /s What goodies, the blackvue dashcam? |
