Re: [talk-au] maxspeed removal
PS - quite a few declines spent a lot of time just tracing from nearmap but never bothered to go out and collect the information on the ground such as street names etc. Most of this is still untagged and since it will disappear in April and needs survey anyway, maybe me should delete them now as well. Once again this will help by focusing attention on the real red areas. We'd have to be careful of non residential roads since one decliner has been removing names for quite a while now and putting them into relations (which raises a whole new set of problems for us to fix.)

[talk-au] maxspeed removal
Hi all, I've removed the maxspeed tags from about 1000 roads in Redcliffe (Brisbane) with changeset http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/10338587 There were no maxspeed:source or source:maxspeed tags on these objects so it is possible that I have removed data that was carefully surveyed. I apologize for that and for making a mass edit in a place I have yet to visit. This is poor behaviour, I hope that it will be helpful as a demonstration. I hope that this will clean the area up a bit in the quick history service so that other, more substantial issues with the data are apparent. If successful, perhaps mappers will find this a helpful technique in reconciling data in their area.

My understanding is it is a pretty specific set of these maxspeed changes we are currently targetting, all of which have maxspeed:source as it was added by the same bot.

The bot added maxspeed:source=default residential speed limit in Australia not source:maxspeed. I've manually changed dozens (hundreds) to source:maxspeed. I think it would be best if you reverted.

I think it would be best if you reverted. Done. You want to take a go at clearing some of these up? Are they maxspeed:source? I just search for: maxspeed:source=* (quotes required) in josm and change it to source:maxspeed Or maybe do what you did before but instead of deleting the maxspeed=* change maxspeed:source to source:maxspeed Cheers Ross ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] maxspeed removal
Good to see you reverted your changeset. You should really have posted to this list before making the change (I can't tell you off though, I did the same thing when I was very new). As you can see by this object http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/43991723/history your changeset destroyed perfectly good information. Notably the maxspeed=40 that Thorsten Engler added.
