TomTom, several group of YouthMappers participants, some OSMGhana.org members and remote mappers have massively, and based on their own assumptions added very questionable and non-existing maxspeed=* to roads in Accra.[1] There were cases where valid and existing signs exists but different speed limits were added.
In Ghana there is so far one know highway=motorway to have a posted maxspeed=100 which is 390798096
390798096. Sadly there have been multiple roads in residential areas that have been tagged with maxspeed=100/90/30. Worrying cases are when there exists valid maxspeed and also street-level images further valid this but a false value is added.
Selected cases
East-Legon Tunnel
- 169117993
169117993 - History: v has valid
maxspeed:forward=50, the organized mapping campaign v14 addedmaxspeed=100 - Street-level image with sign showing 50: https://www.mapillary.com/app/?pKey=109848977855241&focus=photo
Accra Sports Stadium
- 155674059 (achavi, OSMLab, FacilMap)
- Street level image shows
maxspeed=50, butmaxspeed=30was added. Flagged in thread but no one seems to care.[1]
