| Notes, notes, and more notes | And here an important note, the new Passenger Cruise Terminal in Brussels. It has even been on television. It is probably difficult to map. note/1323520#map=16/50.8951/4.4008&layers=N |

| Notes, notes, and more notes | That is a difficult one. Would really no one have made such a list before ? I don’t feel smart enough to do that. There have been plenty discussions about worthless notes. https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=57577 They could be categorized by the work the author did put into it. Or by the origin : anonymous OSM, Navmii,… The importance is the most subjective criterium : I did put an hour of work photographing the shops in a backward vicinity, you could call it HOT work. But it was not seen as important. note/1306417 Some people copy and paste the same note randomly all over the country when a walking network changes. That is seen as important. The age of a note might be a criterium. But then again, how do you compare a life ring to a shop ? note/1216316#map=15/51.0102/4.5417&layers=N Some people use notes to tell about road works two years in the future. That could make a town full of notes. The most honest note is the one where a mapper asks for advice about the tagging and then tags it himself. The silliest (or most amusing) notes I ever encountered was a distinguished mapper who asked about shops that were closed and he could not distinguish in the dark and even about houses of which he thought it could be shops. I prefer to make notes about objects that do not interest me, but someone else. Some mappers like that, a well documented note with pictures. Others think I am just lazy. Look at my profile to understand what I talk about. |

| The Hand-Cut Pass Through Solid Rock in Turkmenbashy, Turkmenistan | Nice. I never saw that on National Geographics. |
|
| Notes, notes, and more notes | Do you see a possibility to categorise the notes ? |
|
| Augmented Editor – OSM-Daten vor Ort und in Echtzeit bearbeiten | That must be a joke because there is no real link to the project. Anyway, it is a good joke and I appreciate it. It might become true. Better than the usual “Google is taking over ..” |

| Building an inclusive map - OSM and gender discussion | Alexkemp has a point. Nowadays only the retired dare tell their thoughts. |
|
| Iron Acton | Good of you to consider the locals. |
|
| Building an inclusive map - OSM and gender discussion | When there is one woman at a serious science gathering the male men flock around her to help. When there are two women, these women book a room to discuss gender equality. |

| Bad Weather = Bad Imagery | For those without the bookmarklet = https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=37.29109848387289&lng=62.3577557132229&z=17&pKey=JEJKujZSQONSmAA5o2cmzg&focus=photo Do not exagerate. Those pictures are not too bad and are very appreciated. |

| highway=milestone vs mapillary vs richtiges tagging | If you map the milestones in Flanders, please map only the new green ones. I am filipc on mapillary. |
|
| highway=milestone vs mapillary vs richtiges tagging | Yes, but the milestones are supposed to be precise and serve as a reference for other objects. That is why am I waiting for an import of open data. |
|
| highway=milestone vs mapillary vs richtiges tagging | precision, accuracy, uncertainty = How many centimeters, meters your lat,lon on OSM could be distant from the real position. |
|
| highway=milestone vs mapillary vs richtiges tagging | Schön.
Ich habe eine eigene Meinung aber ich bin nicht klug genug om zu wissen dasz es die richtige ist. Später kann die prezision immer verbessert werden. Aber eine prezision tag gibt es nicht. |
|
| highway=milestone vs mapillary vs richtiges tagging | Aber wie viele sind in Mapillary gut zu lesen ? Ich versuche es in Flandern richtig zu tun. https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=51.200079610555576&lng=3.0191290005554947&z=17&dateFrom=2017-12-01&pKey=rAMcbMUTJirChgC9BKUdXw&focus=photo&x=0.4890106037475797&y=0.46722625071017776&zoom=0 Milestones mussen nicht in OSM handmäszig eingeführt werden, Sie sollen genau importiert werden. Sie sind grundsetzlich gut om andere Sachen mit Prezision zu mappen. |

| OpenStreetMap Notes: some interesting stats | As long as notes are not categorized according to cause or task, discussion is difficult e.g. - How do I tag that ? - Can someone take a picture or have a look ? - I’ll have a look one day, but someone may do it before me. - Someone should place that on the map. … - It was dark I could not see a thing. I often resolve my notes just to clean up. That does not mean that they were on my todo list. |
|
| I broke my streak | I have an idea for a task : In a well mapillarized area, look for stairs without an incline and add that tag. That tag value does not change overnight. |
|
| I broke my streak | I had a quick look and immediately I saw something I don’t like = title: Improve a Coastline emoji: 🌊 description: >- Many coastlines were imported long time ago from a digitized low-resolution satellite imagery. You can definitely help improving it in some places. Add at least 10 nodes to a coastline. test: modified_way: “natural=coastline” added_10_nodes: “” Please stay away from the Flemish coast. I once though I improved a pier, but these are well mapped in a map which we can use as a background. So stay away from well mapped places with well educated locals. |

| Announcing my candidacy for OSMF Board Elections 2017 | I would like to represent myself. |
|
| A year of edits with OSM Streak | That was also a trick to make us go to church every day. |
|
| Seeking your support for OSMF Board Membership | I usually vote with my feet. A foreigner came for one afternoon in the city where I solve the notes. He mapped a bit and left 50 notes of presumable shops he could not distinquish in the dark. The community did not act on this matter.
Some people know of a problem and leave notes all over the country and forget about them. They do not even help to solve them.
That is why I did quit the notes business.
Please have a look in my profile at the notes I created. |
