Just had a comment made by somebody in the US on one of the Notes I worked on: https://www.openstreetmap.org/note/3111658 Apparently copying from HERE.com They have referred to DWG. Thanks Graeme On Thu, 31 Mar 2022 at 11:50, Andrew Davidson wrote: > > On looking at the notes added in

This might not be of use, but if you're trying to add a multipolygon for a building with a hole in it then in JOSM it's really easy: 1. Use the building tool to create multiple rectangles over the building, including any courtyard. 2. Select all the building rectangles, with the courtyard

Hi Graeme, I'm not sure about a tutorial however, once you click 'create multipolygon', a new relation should appear in the section on the right (if you can't see a box for relations you can select Windows at the top of the screen and make sure that relations is checked). From there you can

Does anybody know of a simple, straight-forward, how-to for creating multipolygons using JOSM? If possible, I'd prefer a document rather than video, but beggars can't be choosers! I've already found a couple, but they either don't explain how-to, or I get different results when I do what they

I did add a load of them yesterday, but was thinking it would be much easier if they just created an account of their own & added them! I'll hold off doing any more till something is decided. Feel free to revert those that I've added if we decide they're not kosher. Thanks Graeme On Thu, 31

This is unusual behaviour, certainly. I can see that the notes in the US are being closed en masse as they can't be verified through compatible sources. On looking at the notes added in Australia, they do seem to be an automated script comparing what's in OSM to an external source. The

Just a heads up to let you know that someone is currently trying to bypass the import requirements of OSM by creating thousands of anonymous map notes. Seems to have started in the US and Canada: https://resultmaps.neis-one.org/osm-notes-country?c=United%20States
