I found it amusing how your changesets descriptions sound very specific, yet manage to say so little. Indeed, you haven't touched relations and you haven't deleted any nodes or ways, so they are, in fact, entirely correct. :-)

Apologies if I caused a conflict with my changes, I haven't noticed you are still editing. Let me know if you need terracing or other improvements for adding addresses - happy to help.

Do you have any references? Not that I disagree but for now it may be better to be less specific. That is: place=suburb and for addressing addr:suburb=Alconbury Weald or addr:locality=Alconbury Weald.

86454065 over 5 years ago

Hi,

Do you know if Alconbury Weald is a village, town or suburb? The official website calls it a "community", which is not particularly helpful.

This is needed for an admin place node and for addressing tags.

Addr:city should be Huntingdon, but there is no consensus in OSM as for what tags should be used for "dependent locality" and "double dependent locality". I usually pick one of addr:village, addr:locality, addr:town or addr:suburb.

Hi,

Thank you for the contribution.

Can you clarify what way/804154602 is? It is currently tagged as a building (building=yes and office=yes). Perhaps you meant a commercial area (landuse=commercial)?

84722902 over 5 years ago

Thank you for your comment. Residential areas are now tagged correctly. Previously they included vast swatches of land that were not residential in any way. Please let me know if you have noticed any specific mistakes, I'll happily correct them.
For tagging the village boundaries instead of landuse=* please use place=village and boundary=administrative tags.

Thanks, you are most likely right. I'll survey the area next time I have a chance to go out.

Do you mean you know it is not a multi-storey car park? Imagery you are referring to shows it as a building, although the picture is not very clear.

Thanks. My mistake.

For primary and secondary roads there is a fairly well established convention (A and B road, respectively). For now, I would downgrade these roads to tertiary (they connect parts of the village/town already) and upgrade them in the future once/if they get an official designation as A or B roads.

81412751 almost 6 years ago

Hi Jon, highway=secondary is generally for designated B roads. Larger roads used for connecting villages/parts of towns are highway=tertiary and shouldn't, in general, be used for access roads. highway=*

I think most of these roads should be highway=tertiary, assuming they are meant to ultimately connect other parts of Northstowe.

Hi, thank you for fixing what looks like my mistake.

Thank you freebeer and ravsjith. I didn't realise it was an Amazon changeset. I have no problem with using proprietary imagery with permission of the copyright holder.

I am a bit surprised DigitalGlobe is OK with using their imagery for improving OSM but this imagery is not available for broader OSM community. Is it just a matter of asking them for permission and obtaining a personal API key?

81338508 almost 6 years ago

Hi aepunavy, is "Private Earth Watch Imagery" the same as DigitalGlobe's EarthWatch? If so, did you get a permission from DigitalGlobe to use it for improving OSM?

Yes.

Technically this is correct but I would rather use lane tagging for separating lanes. The current version is almost unusable because of the shear number of roads drawn. No one who knows this junction would describe it this way.

I would recommend separating lanes only if there is a physical island of a meaningful size (for example, hosting a pedestrian crossing, something more than a traffic lights pole). If the use of an island is needed it may be better to downgrade the highway to a "link" or to a type matching the target road.

Hi, I think this relation (3396953) should be landuse=residential (like before), not leisure=park.

Hi,
This is still work in progress. I believe the map accurately represents the current state of construction work but things are changing often.

Hi FuzzyUK70,

Thank you for your contribution. It's unlikely the actual name of these roads/tracks is "Private road". Having said that, I couldn't find anything about their previous names ("African Road" and "Indian Road") either. Can you expand on where is this information coming from?

Best regards,
