Ohhh! Sorry for not answering back, I onls used imagery and not local knowledge and i'm not local to the area (I'm a couch mapper from Hungary)

Probably you should ask MapSpot about that, because he knows the area :)

these changeset comments make me laugh :D it's enough if you only say you mapped woods and that's it

137969884 over 2 years ago

changeset/137993032 So this is what I mean, although this is a lot smaller than that big forest thing, but at least this aligns a lot better to the landuses

Also, for mapping landcover I'm using fastdraw plugin in JOSM, because it's an efficient tool to draw these. If you've got any questions feel free to reach me out either in private messages or on OSMUS Slack (https://slack.openstreetmap.us/) or Discord, I don't know which one do you prefer

Hey! I like that you use JOSM to add wood landcover, however, there is a golden rule in mapping landcover that it should not overlap residential areas.

Where you can see a road wraps the forest or farmlands, etc, don't map it over that. For example of these you should take a look at West Virginia, which I map since 2020.
(such as: relation/13797537 relation/13824325 and way/1183627996)

Thanks a lot for your help.

and also aligned the coastline, hence the size of the changeset, because I splitted it

137388933 over 2 years ago

I also splitted up the huge multipolygon into many smaller ones and mix-matched the existing forest landcover polygons and traced areas too

137218729 over 2 years ago

good example is relation/15969160, it doesn't render now on Carto layer

Hello, when mapping please check which multipolygon you broke before upload the changeset. I really suggest using JOSM (https://josm.openstreetmap.de/) for this purpose.
I have to fix numerous multipolygons because they're broken

137033419 over 2 years ago

I also added missing roads too.

136102129 over 2 years ago

Nevertheless, I reverted that huge forest multipolygon so it displays properly on the map.

136102129 over 2 years ago

The reason i'm saying this because this multipolygon itself is a forest landcover, and for other areas please create a new polygon.
FYI, for changes like this JOSM (https://josm.openstreetmap.de/) should be used

136102129 over 2 years ago

relation/1232849

Did you intend to change only a smaller forest area?
In the near future this multipolygon will be destroyed and redrawn due to its inaccuracy. Please double check what you're editing before uploading.

Hey! I want to suggest to read this:
osm.wiki/Tagging_for_the_renderer

Please refrain from naming roads like "unknown track" or "shared-use trail". They have their proper tagging. You can ask people in OSM US Slack community (https://slack.openstreetmap.us/) and you can join #local-pennsylvania + #tagging channels where you can ask the questions on proper tagging. (or if you're more familiar with discord, then https://discord.gg/openstreetmap)

Thanks a lot :) And yeah it's a shame there's no good equestrian maps out there, since a friend of mine is also rides a horse and once I had to navigate her but it seemed like a challenge because of the terrain difficulties.

Szia! Picit túl nagy lett a changeseted. Melyik másik országba sikerült elmozgatnod valami nodeot? :)

Hey Shelby! I retagged this basketball court, for each features like this there are actually built in features in iD, and in JOSM, respectively.
