Small nitpick: driveways leading to houses are service roads (and a service road can be a driveway too).

Unclassified, despite its name, in Estonia is often used for non-residential not very important roads. Usually they have more than 5-digit reference number in road registry.

highway=unclassified

service=driveway

Nice.

When editing roads don't forget to connect them so that routing software would be able to plot a route.

In this case cycleway near the removed crossing was left disconnected, while pedestrian could go to Viama tee from there and cyclist could switch to Aiandi tee's carriageway (sõidutee). I've connected it.

Hi and welcome!

Please don't add names to such paths. Names are for street names and, sometimes, for well known names which are not street names like here way/83485557

Names are not for object descriptions and classifications, we do it with tags.

BTW, you also don't need to add all those access tags. For example, footways aren't accessible by vehicles by default, but pedestrian access is implied.

If there is no footway sign, I'd make it a path, this would imply allowed bicycle access (paths can be paved, it's ok)

Hi and welcome.
It seems you've accidentally removed
building=yes tag and now it's not a building anymore.

I've googled around, you can find some info by searching "Deefa baasis Muugal". I didn't dive deep enough to understand what's there on the ground and where this myth came from.

1. What are you basing this on? This road doesn't seem to have a name in Maa-amet. In road registry it only has a "technical" "Hiiu - Tee 5" name.

The only reason to name in Lehola would be a street name sign on the ground. Note that house address signs are not street name signs.
2. Thanks!

Hi and welcome, thanks for contribution!

1) Small roads connecting to streets usually don't bear the name of the street in Estonia. Streets usually don't branch out. You can always check against Maa-amet and Road Registry.

2) Maybe I'm wrong, but from aerial photos this road looks paved. Maybe the surface should be compacted or something else? surface=compacted

In terms of OSM data there is no difference. What's saved in database are tags you see at the bottom when you select an object. iD editor's search and templates are just a convenient way to fill those tags. "Feature type" you see at the top is not saved and is not visible to applications consuming OSM data. It will be up to them to interpret data from the tags correctly.

The only alternative we have is to make cut line and the path separate lines drawn on top of each other.

Depends on if you consider them a same feature.
osm.wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element

I think both options are ok, though wiki says

If a road (usually highway=track or highway=path) follows the cutline, it is to be tagged as such in addition to cutline tags.
man_made=cutline

157668206 about 1 year ago

Wow, that's a lot of changes you did. Maybe it's easier to rollback all of them than trying to save a few highway=service streets.

Next time please consult the wiki
highway=secondary_link

157668206 about 1 year ago

Please fix your latest changes. I can rollback all of them, if you want. But it will rollback full changesets.

157668206 about 1 year ago

Hi,
highway=tertiary_link
is incorrect in this case. link types are for connections to the specified types of roads. slip roads/ramps and sometimes small connections on junctions fall into this category. And of course, they must be connected to a tertiary road.

Note that at least in context of Estonia, unclassified doesn't mean that it needs further classification. It's usually just a non-residential, road which has a longer than 5-number ref number in Estonian road registry.

157772691 about 1 year ago

Hi, maybe it can be both a trail and a cut line?

157554996 about 1 year ago

It's not against osm etiquette if it's really named like this. I though that the name doesn't belong here. Maybe I'd add some word like "koopia mõõtkavas" to make it clear, but it depends. Maybe just a note or description tag.

157554996 about 1 year ago

Track name seems suspicious

157629875 about 1 year ago

You've removed amenity=school from this building

way/77185785

Was it by mistake?

157629875 about 1 year ago

way/1322157898

Such roads usually shouldn't have a name. It's not Liiva street, just some connecting service road.

In such cases you can check against Maa-amet and Teeregister.

The only exception if there is a street name sign placed on that street in reality. Note that house address signs are not street name signs.

Hi, I don't what kind of paths those are, but forest paths are actually usually highway=path.

Paths allows routing for mountain bikes, for example.

Unless those are man-made for walking, paths are actually better than footways in such cases.

*married=mapped

157478852 about 1 year ago

You can keep both on one way or the grass could be married separately, I think there are some tiles between curb and grass.

Data in OSM can have inconsistent quality, but still we should try not to delete other people's work.

157478852 about 1 year ago

Isn't there both a curb and a grassy area?
