Re: [OSM-talk] What would make MapRoulette better?

Hi Martijn I support the idea that a user can define an area-of-his-interests (as part of his profile/account?). My another wish is to show OSM data (Overpass?) in the first place - similar to what map data layer in osm.org shows but only around coordinate. Background is, that when the

Hoi Joost, Mike, James, The Skipped status merely indicates that one user has decided to skip it, but that does not preclude others from seeing it. They will see the ‘Skipped’ status so they know that a user has previously skipped it, but otherwise it’s still in the pool with all other active

Hi, Like others I'd like a bbox filter so I could work on an area I know well. The polygon fixing project was world wide, and I'd rather only fix up things in my area. Is there any reason there isn't a JOSM plugin? There's one for to-fix, a similar tool. Rory On 19/11/17 21:59, Martijn van

Erwin, Are you suggesting MapRoulette have some sort of manual ‘merge’ function? Suggesting changes to tags (or even geometry) that the user would just confirm, instead of going to JOSM / iD and make edits manually? Martijn > On Nov 20, 2017, at 8:08 PM, Erwin Olario

Re: [OSM-talk] What would make MapRoulette better?

Martijn, Maproulette does give hashtags to ID changesets using the changeset comment right now. There are tools like osmcha or Pascal Neis's osm-changesets to easily filter them. A dedicated tag might of course help find "anything that started with a QA tool", which is then filter-able by tool

Re: [OSM-talk] What would make MapRoulette better?

Martijn, I'll agree with Yuri that is has to be the choice of the mapper to work in a specific region and not the challenge creator. I don't want to ask each challenge creator to split up the challenge in smaller chunks, just because I feel uncomfortable editing outside a certain area. This area

Re: [OSM-talk] What would make MapRoulette better?

So sorry for the terse reply. Right now, the only way to build task is to specify the location or specific objects. The use-case I have in mind is when a data provider allows or donates their data into OSM, and apart from geographic location and geometry, they have specific attributes usable in

Hey Martijn, it’s currently possible to send comments and hashtags to iD (they can be sent as two different parameters, or just embed the hashtags in the comments like the task managers currently do). It’s not possible to set other changeset tags, but it is something I could add if there is a

Re: [OSM-talk] What would make MapRoulette better?

Sorry, something went wrong with my previous email, I think. I’ll try and phrase again. It is a good idea, Pierre, to have various tools use a consistent set of tags on changesets. I think that is what you are suggesting? MapRoulette already does send some ‘hashtags’ to JOSM.  Who knows if

Re: [OSM-talk] What would make MapRoulette better?

Martin, Yes I suggest to add tags to the changeset metadata. On the HOT discussion list and the Github Tasking Manager project, you should find discussions about this. Yes, it is possible to send these tags with the remote control.   Pierre Le lundi 20 novembre 2017 16:45:02 HNE, Martijn

Hi Pierre, That is a good idea and there are already some ‘hashtags’ that MapRoulette sends to JOSM. I don’t know if this is possible in iD as well. I think it is something that could be improved upon. Perhaps with changeset tags (is that what you are suggesting?) Does anyone know if JOSM and

Re: [OSM-talk] What would make MapRoulette better?

Martijn, I think this is very similar to what Osmose does in its DB view (and I think several other tools do in the map view) - they offer a choice of a "world view" (unfiltered) or a "region views" - where users may choose what region they are interested in (e.g. a dropdown). I think it would be

Re: [OSM-talk] What would make MapRoulette better?

Hi Martijn We see an increase of coordinatead actions via QA and TM tools. But this is not systematically documented on the Changeset metadata. For QA tools, sometimes we see in the comments reference to MapRoulette or other tools. It is possible for these tools to transfer infos to editors

Re: [OSM-talk] What would make MapRoulette better?

Marc,  Good point and something that has come up often. As Joost mentioned in a reply, the easy solution for this is, as a challenge owner, to split up the challenge into regional chunks and label them as such.  The new version will have ‘filter by current map bounds’. I’m not quite sure how

Re: [OSM-talk] What would make MapRoulette better?

Marc, as task managers for this Belgian task, Ben and I could just as well split the Challenge up into smaller bits, e.g. by town/village. For more labour-intensive Challenges, we will probably do that. I do agree that it would be nice to do such a thing. I wrote this Github issue with a single
