Hi All,
I'd like to mention that a lot of the mapping going on in Lombok
Island is happening by the local community there. They are pretty new
to OSM so it takes time to work on QA and the correcting some of the
tagging. There is a lot of work going on now to standardize on a set
of presets for th
Yes Jaakko, very good advice. I would add that if you don't know to
download the data first then you shouldn't be using JOSM or Mercator but
stick with Potlatch2 as it automatically updates the data and is easier
to use than the other editors. I always try to return to my edits after
they've
A fair point Severin, however I would still rather complete what I can
see rather than stop at some randomly assigned grid. As I understand it
the grids have been applied to help people feel they've got an
acheivable task in front of them or to direct them to a part of the map
that is usually

Upload early, upload often...

In any case I _always_ advice people to check the areas you have mapped
after you have uploaded (update data in

But in this case you take the risk someone else is also editing these other
box/grids/squares in the same time. And finally we get these duplicates you
noticed :)

BTW on the subject of editing grids, personally I don't always stay in
the box, if I'm mapping a river or road then I'll follow it to it's
logical or prectical conclusion, also any polygons I will complete even
if they take me further a field. I see no benefit in adding incomplete

Oh is that where those squares have come from, yes I would agree, they
shouldn't be in the OSM db. It would be nice if the grid you are working

Dear Nadeem,
I don't think adding a temporary boundary in the main OSM db for

external tools for doing this (if there are none, it should be created).
