| 143389737 | almost 2 years ago | But yeah i'm about to start my work shift |
| 143389737 | almost 2 years ago | Ohh! I'll correct that then when i'm home. But only for this one. Hopefully I won't get gazillions of comments that "this is low quality"... From MD imagery it's more clear to see the boundary. |

| 144320212 | about 2 years ago | As I saw you traced the county boundaries based on USGS Topo Maps, that should've been put there as source. :) |
| 144123926 | about 2 years ago | Wrong county and task description, because this is Fayette County, PA :) |
| 143635472 | about 2 years ago | Looks good to me although I added a little more where there were some wood cutting but yes I was fiddling about that too if I should add (way/1221251666) - well I added it, but yes it looks nice! Good job! Although you should omit the "survey" from the sources unless you really surveyed it on the ground. |

| 141349127 | about 2 years ago | You're welcome. Anyways, feel free to join OSM World Discord (https://discord.gg/openstreetmap), or OSM US Slack (https://slack.openstreetmap.us/) where I have #forest-mapping channel set up. And as I can see, you're also from Europe just like me, since it's 22:57 (10:57 PM) when I write this |
| 141349127 | about 2 years ago | NAIP = National Agriculture Imagery Program :) and it's in iD editor, so you can use it by default |
| 141349127 | about 2 years ago | NAIP has imageries taken from 2021/2022, depending on state. (there is a map on USDA site: https://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap=0ecb05ec9e0540d3a201c4ef9d2aee88) For Bing, the imagery is from 2019ish, so it's a bit older. (seeing it from metadata, which you can check in JOSM by right clicking on the editing area -> show tile info) - not talking about Esri World Imagery Clarity (Beta), which has the imagery taken from 2010-2011. Although, it can be used as a reference, to check what changed. Esri World Imagery: by checking on Arcgis mapviewer(https://www.arcgis.com/apps/mapviewer/index.html, then choosing World Imagery from Esri), the imagery's dates are varying, but in Dallas County I can see 2021-2022 year. I know a little bit off, but this relates to the multiple imagery usage from me |
| 141349127 | about 2 years ago | Bing vs NAIP: NAIP is newer than Bing, that's why I use that, sometimes there are inaccuracies because of the managed wood, however I try to make a mix n' match, so I check the state from Bing imagery and from NAIP as well, and try to see what fits the best. I also notice inaccuracies sometimes, because when I save the drawn area with Fastdraw, sometimes simplifies the nodes too much that it sacrifices the accuracy for that. :) |
| 141826132 | about 2 years ago | XDDD people won't notice what you wrote in the changeset but still funny |
| 141349127 | about 2 years ago | Hi threeof4, Thanks for the comment, when I have time i'll check it based on what you're mapping. I noticed that there are a lot of managed forests but I hate using landuse=forest and natural=wood together, because it appears the same on any OSM map layer. (Let it be mapbox or carto or anything). In Europe everything is marked with landuse=forest because that is the standard, since all forest can be cut down there even if most of it is natural. (Some are managed though)
In Appalachia (West Virginia + Maryland + PA and other states) I use natural=wood only since the amount of managed woods is not much, except those which are owned by USFS (national forests) or the State (state forests), but based on some debate we agreed on keeping natural=wood. I invested a lot of time in this and to be honest the area I edited looks a lot better than before. (I crosspost this to OSMUS Slack so maybe other mappers from the US have their opinion) |
| 141775659 | about 2 years ago | I will redraw the bad quality ones sooner or later just I did not want to deal with the alignment of them :) |
| 141389594 | over 2 years ago | OHH! Wrong changeset comment :) This is Dallas County, Arkansas, just i automatically chose I was mapping forest landcover |
