| Notes in iD have arrived | Very nice, with my excellent notes certainly. |
|
| A Quarter of a Million Images of Turkmenistan | By the way, ask for Belgium. |
|
| A Quarter of a Million Images of Turkmenistan | I plan to move back into my heimat. That is one of the reasons that I picture my current region in a frenzy way. |
|
| Update NEW map imagery [necessary] | There is something to learn. Why do you ask ? |

| The Southern Cross of the Russian Empire, and A Neat Trick with Mapillary GPX FIles | If you are into GPS, I even have more for you to learn. Why don’t you log with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.geopp.rinexlogger and postprocess into a gpx file ? With my Samsung S9, the rinexlogger works in the background. |
|
| The Southern Cross of the Russian Empire, and A Neat Trick with Mapillary GPX FIles | And no Strava there, I suppose ? |
|
| The Southern Cross of the Russian Empire, and A Neat Trick with Mapillary GPX FIles | To be more accurate = Mapillary makes a folder for each sequence. In that folder there are the jpg files of 1 sequence and one gpx file. |
|
| adjusting the map to the satellite background | Is that not dangerous ? Is it not for the people who know what they are doing ? |
|
| Updates to Dashoguz and the Road North from Ashgabat | There is something wrong with the date filter in Mapillary. Could you give the link ? |
|
| OpenStreetCam sign detection code and training data open sourced | I wait for a better smartphone to contribute. |
|
| Notes, notes, and more notes | I have an idea that can satisfy everybody and it is without categories = Let the individual mapper follow/unfollow notes. The unfollowed notes would normally become invisible to that mapper. Harder = Or let people vote for notes : love/hate or like/dislike or worthy/silly |
|
| Notes, notes, and more notes | Notes should be OSM’s fuel, now they are rather a burden. |
|
| 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. |
