Cool idea - I can see how it can help the OSM project.
There are a couple of things.
1) What to do about users adding the same point, but differently. For
example user A goes "I'm at McDonalds, it's a cafe", user B goes I'm
at Mac Donalds, it's a fast food restaurant" for the same location.

The goal with this sharing, commenting, checking in to OSM places on

So, you are saying that you feel OpenStreetMap should reflect the status of the
road when the aerial photo was made, rather than the current status?

Hi,
Zsombor, thanks for the reply, and clarifying about chickens.
When/how does OSM get edited with the app by the user? (Sorry, not got
an Iphone so cannot see for myself :)
Earlier in the thread you said
"Every user that makes an edit to OSM via the app does it with their
own OSM user."

Yes, but seav80 was saying that he or she prefers data made from the aerial
view (up to 3 months old, and without some details observable only from the
ground) to data recorded by someone going now to the location on the ground.

I would assume this means that, in order for this app to update OSM, you would
need to enter your OSM user ID and password as part of the app's settings.

For *that* particular imagery, yes.
My point is that blindly saying that you shouldn't trace from imagery
if you haven't visited the place is not a hard rule. There are a lot
of circumstances when tracing is actually OK.

Of course. You can see details on signs and on walls on aerial imagery.
I'm not saying that nobody should anymore visit a place that has been

Just a comment locally someone did a trace and managed to get one end of the

Fabio,
I cannot sign every edit I've ever done over, because I don't have the
rights to do so. I can OK many of them, however, that were based
purely on my own work, and not CC-BY-SA sources. There was some talk
of a tool being made available that would let me specify which were OK
by changeset.
I'm probably in the same state. I suspect the only honest thing to do is to
request that all my data be removed. It seems a bit extreme but could that
be done? Yes I did agree to the ODBL change but that was taking advice from

I reviewed the subject airport imports in southern CA.
I'm surprised that there were only 16 imports in bbox=-122,33,-115,38 given
the mentioned 23000 nodes total. Must be other parts of the world that were
not well-covered?
They are all private facilities, and I tagged them access=private. T
