when delivering training at events, and I like to include screenshots from iD& JOSM and in each I like to have the scale visible. Great! Blake. Waiting for you to share them when done. Quite often, a road can look too narrow to be classified as "unclassified", so people put "path" on it. But that's in a lot of cases because the treetop makes it seem narrow, but at the bottom, it's wide enough for vehicles to pass. I always use unclassified to be on the safer side. There are precious few photos in Wikimedia Commons showing forest roads and hamlets in West Africa. I started to collect those I could localize and associate with a tag. Only primary roads so far. Some from DRC. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Rwst/Commons_ photos_roads_hamlets_w-africa >From those cool images from I think I should start pushing mine from Ghana too to Commons as well:). I've uploaded some of such roads here in Ghana via www.mapillary.com Enock On Wed, Sep 10, 2014 at 12:14 PM, Blake Girardot <bgirar...@gmail.com> wrote: > Oh those pictures are really cool, ty. > > On 9/10/2014 6:15 AM, Ralf Stephan wrote: > >> There are precious few photos in Wikimedia Commons showing forest roads >> and hamlets in West Africa.
