Re: [OSM-talk] Add 'Keep right!' to the list of map links in the 'place' template
Shaun wrote: This crossing of a highway and a railway needs to be tagged as railway=level_crossing Is not quite right as it should also allow railway=crossing. a crossing is a crossing just for pedestrians, while level_crossing is a crossing where larger vehicles can cross too. Thank you, Shaun for the clarification! The check does allow 'railway=crossing' as well as 'railway=level_crossing', but it was not documented that way. I've added that now. Hi Harald, Do you use the saved comments against false positives to improve the checks at all? For example I noted against one such highlighted problem that railway=abandoned meeting a highway=footway probably doesn't need to be tagged as a level_crossing (indeed part of the footway runs along a section of the abandoned railway line). Yes of course, I will use the comments! In fact that's the only purpost of the comment field. Thank you for the hint, I excluded abandoned railways by now. Please note that this change will take effect in the next but one update, as the check process is already running... Having said that I've found a few things to correct around here as well as the false positives, and there are a few things that are highlighted as places I meant to go and finish but forgot about...

This gives a link to view the country on the main slippy map and also to view it in various external 'lint' tools such as OpenStreetBugs. I'd like to request that 'Keep right!' http://keepright.ipax.at/ be added to this list. It checks various map errors, not all of which are covered by maplint or the other tools. For example, here is the report for the Regent's Park area: http://keepright.ipax.at/report_map.php?lat=51.53011lon=-0.15456zoom=15layers=B0T . I have contacted the maintainer Harald Kleiner e9625...@gmx.at and he is enthusiastic for the site to be used. Although the tabular download can cause a high server load if downloading a large area, the slippy map is limited to showing 100 error markers, so it is safe to link to at any size. At the moment 'Keep right!' has data only for Europe, because running the check for the whole planet file would take two weeks. But I suggest linking to it now, and perhaps some better hardware could be sorted out later to expand it In Potlatch you can enter edit mode with a particular feature already selected. We do this with OSM Mapper and it works very well and Geofabrik do it as well. You should add this to Keep Right. For example http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?lon=8.10411lat=51.05425zoom=18way=29411858 There is also a way to do this with JOSM as long as it is already running.

Re: [OSM-talk] Add 'Keep right!' to the list of map links in the 'place' template
Hi Milenko! Watch out, I could take you at your word! I am surprised that there is so much response and demand to run checks by many people. Up to now I've tried to run the checks on the whole planet but that just crashed the server. You need at least 4GB RAM and 400GB hard disk, built up as RAID0 preferably, if you want to try that. Hardware requirements are less if you just check part of the planet obviously. Now here is my proposal: As configuring PostGIS and setting up my scripts is quite a hassle, I could prepare a virtualBox image file for download. Then you could just configure the location where the planet file is to be downloaded and then you could get started within minutes. For the experts I could provide the script sources as well, but I'm afraid of drowning in mails later on... What do you think? Best regards, Harald Such a cool tool.
