I still do this on an ad hoc basis, but have never automated the process. For those who might be interested here's what I currently do: 1. Download a pbf file from Geofabrik (usually gb but could be smaller area) 2. Convert it to .o5m format with osmconvert 3. Run a filter to find only highways

I agree with SK53 that identifying missing RoW is the primary importance. Robert: Is your code open / available anywhere such that one can help improve it / take inspiration from / run it locally ? I would like to use something better than flipping on/off a display of the ways in a Hampshire

In the dim & distant past you could do the exact opposite: place osm identifiers on Flickr: here's a photo of mine with such tags https://www.flickr.com/photos/sk53_osm/4032609321/. Unfortunately I dont believe Flickr supports this at all any more. However, resolving the flickr tags to OSM

Hi No, the "main" OSM database has no way to store images. But there are third-party projects that integrate with OSM, and your group can use those! Mapillary: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mapillary OpenStreetCam: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenStreetCam They have JOSM plugins

Hi, I am helping a community group make a survey of a small wood area. This will be tagging trees, badger habitats, and even sewers. They use a Garmin GPS with a camera to take pictures and then we use JOSM to extract the location to later add information like species and such and we upload

Quick response. It appears that the tool only accepts as mapped rights of way mapped with some local identifier, rather than those with a designation tag. Hampshire is one of the better mapped places in England and Wales. have no problem with us eventually adding identifiers for PRoW, but surely

Hi Robert, Thanks a lot for adding Oxfordshire to your comparison tool! However it reports much lower mapping coverage than I expected. It appears to be due to a mismatch of prow_ref format. I know that at least in and around Oxford, most paths have been mapped with a prow_ref based on the
