Re: [talk-au] Help - Node relocation

Well, it was showing for me too like in the screenshot when I looked at it at 
first.

 

But as I said, a Ctrl+F5 fixed that.

 

(Lisa, the technical explanation below isn’t really important to you)

 

Now, in this case, because I never looked at that area before, it can’t have 
been my local cache in the browser that was the problem.

 

Ctrl+F5 (instead of just F5) doesn’t just invalidate the cache in the local 
browser, it afterwards sends the requests to reload the data with a “do not 
cache” flag set in the HTTP header, this will in turn force the CDN to not just 
take the tile out of it’s cache but to go back to the actual render server to 
request an updated image.

 

This is exactly why I keep telling people to use Ctrl+F5 (instead of e.g. 
simply turning off caching in their browser, which wouldn’t cause the “do not 
cache” flag on requests to the CDN.

 

Also, in this case a single Ctrl+F5 directly loaded the updated tile, but 
sometimes you have to do it multiple times. The reason why it updated directly 
this time is because the render server already had the new tile rendered, so 
could hand it out directly. But if the render server gets a request for a tile 
that’s “dirty” (needs to be re-rendered) it will still return the dirty tile, 
but will either queue up the rendering of it or possibly push it up the queue 
if it already is queued for rendering. In that case it takes at least one 
additional request after the tile has been rendered to update the tile in the 
browser.

Hi Lisa

The tiles (i.e. the rendered images shown on openstreetmap.org) take a while to 
be updated, sometimes a couple of days. It is not immediate.

I assume that that's the issue here?

For example, I just removed a shop that closed down: 
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/117545570

However, on the map, it still shows (at the time of writing): 



Note that I turned on the "layers > map data" option, which shows in blue the 
existing data in the database. As you can see, the database does not include 
the shop Campus News anymore, but it is still shown on the tile.

So if that's the issue, the image should update in the next few hours or days!

Cheers

When I go into Edit mode the old node that needs to be removed isn't

Am I using the wrong method of editing it?

Or do I need to do something else?

Hi Lisa:  I'm assuming you are using the iD editor.  It seems you know the 
difference between the new node being correct and the old node "needing to go," 
you can click on a node and delete it like this:

Select the node with a single click,
Press and hold until a pop-right menu toggles off (usually to the right, might 
be to the left), let go of the mouse button,
Slide your finger pointer down to the bottom icon, the trash can icon, and when 
hovered over it, click.

You just deleted the node.

Happy mapping!

Lisa, also, please know that it can take different times for the various "zoom 
levels" of the map to show the same data.  For example, zoomed way up close, 
all might look correct, then you zoom out (and it's OK), but you zoom out "one 
more level" and it's like it was yesterday, or two days ago.  The "rendering" 
of the map simply needs to "catch up," and this can take minutes, hours, days 
or even weeks (at wide zoom levels for particular items).

Re: [talk-au] Help - Node relocation

Yup, Lisa, what Thorsten said:  it may be that somebody else has made an edit 
"in the meantime" and you are really seeing the nodes in the map as they are 
"right now."

It may be that you are witnessing that many people can edit the same data.  
When this gets messy," it is called an "Edit Conflict" and it can take some 
specialized steps that can get technical to "back things out" and resolve both 
edits into one, single cohesive thing that all of the data should be.  That 
doesn't happen very often, but it does happen.

Hi
You just need to wait longer for the render of the OSM to catch up with your 
edit.
Try refreshing your browser or try the Tor browser which which is unlikely to 
be caching the OSM tiles in the area.
The node is deleted at the old address and there are two nodes for the business 
at the new address.

Hi
please check if the two nodes for the business are still valid or needed.
One has a note as follows which was added in 2021…. note=Administration, no 
childcare takes place here

Re: [talk-au] Help - Node relocation

[osm.talk-au]

The edit mode shows the data as it exists in the database at that moment. So if 
the node disappears when you go into edit mode, then everything is correct in 
the database and you don’t need to do anything there anymore.

 

The map view outside the editor is not updated in realtime, it can take various 
amounts of time (from seconds to days, depending on zoom level and how busy the 
render servers are) for the new tile to get rendered.

 

In your case I assume the problem is actually that your browser or something 
else between your eyes and the render server is still caching the old tile.

 

You can try Cltr+F5 (repeat 2-3 times if necessary) to force your browser to 
update it’s cache and see if that helps.

It's not that you are or aren't using a "wrong" method of editing it, there are 
several (almost MANY!) methods.  At this point it is that I don't know WHICH 
"editor" you are using.  The word "editor" can be "software editor" (like iD, 
the more-or-less "default" editor built-into a web browser you get when you 
surf to www.osm.org.  Many people use iD, especially novices.  Or, "editor" it 
can mean "human editor," like you, when you edit in OSM (using a "software 
editor" of OSM).  Whew!

So, when you click the little down-arrow to the right of "Edit" at the top of 
your OSM browser page, do you select "Edit with iD (in-browser editor)"?

Or, maybe you are not on a computer / desktop / laptop (or even tablet) and 
using a web browser, you might be on a smart-phone and using an app to edit 
OSM, like Maps.Me or OsmAnd (there are lots and lots of these).  Or, you might 
even be on a smartphone, but still using a browser (in which case, you could 
use iD like that, but editing can be "crowded").

As I don't know which (software) editor you (the human editor) are using, but I 
guessed iD (and maybe I'm wrong), I'll need to know "which software editor" are 
you using, human editor named Lisa?

And we can go from there (I hope, I don't know everything about all of them!)

If you wish, we can take it "off-list" (between us, excluding 
talk-au@openstreetmap.org in our email distribution).
