Briefly, here are my thoughts. 1) *Simplification*, i.e. removing nodes in the middle of a straight line. We should be able to apply this fix to the original data. Looks like James has done it a couple of weeks ago, so we can try take this data and go with it if there are no objections. 2) *Almost

So are we happy with Yaro's suggestions? Or perhaps I should rephrase that can we live with them? On the task manager square size I take it these have been split and split again? Thanks John On Mon, 4 Feb 2019 at 18:08, Yaro Shkvorets wrote: > Briefly, here are my thoughts. > 1)

In JOSM, open the preferences dialog (F12), go to the data validator tab, and click the "show informational level" checkbox (it is third from the top). Any validation done will then check for "Building with an almost square angle", which will appear under the Other tab. "Building with an almost

Thanks, it works. Need to run it a few times it looks like. On a random Markham block went from 88 warnings down to 4 without ruining geometries, which is acceptable IMO. May need to look into its parameters (validator.RightAngleBuilding.maximumDelta and validator.RightAngleBuilding.minimumDelta)

Danny, Do you mind sharing how to fix almost square angles in JOSM? I remember seeing such warning a year or two ago but for some reason I don't see it anymore and can't find it in the Validator settings. Did they remove it from the latest version of JOSM or you need to add this rule manually? If

Just as an addendum, you may find false positives like this one https://maproulette.org/mr3/challenge/3588/task/11055949 where a service road connects to residential roads in a perfectly valid way. You should mark these as ’not an

Harald — you can go into your User profile and change the Default Editor setting to ‘Edit just features in JOSM’. This will load just the ‘abnormal’ highway. You can then load more data around if if needed. If you don’t want to change the setting globally you can use keyboard shortcut ‘y’ to

Hi all, Per Matthew Darwin’s request on Twitter, my team prepared a MapRoulette challenge for ‘highway class flip-flops’. What does this mean? Consecutive ways that have a suspicious change from one highway= value to another and then back to the former. This happens sometimes when mappers

Hi Martijn: I just tried the challenge, and all of the first four tasks that came up produce an "area too big" error in JOSM (long highways in very rural areas). Is there any way to fix this? Or maybe warn people to not use JOSM for this challenge? Harald. On Mon, Feb 4, 2019 at 10:37 AM Martijn
