A possible revised approach (which would be relatively easily implementable) could be to allow users to create the way in-app by tapping along their GPX trace - this way the user can disregard any obvious anomalies. The tapped points could then be autoconverted to OSM ways and added to

Hi Can I please urge caution if using this feature. GPS traces are rarely accurate enough in their raw state to be included directly. Dense woods, deep valleys & solar winds etc will all introduce errors into the traces & walkers will often wander 'off-piste' when crossing fields. Using an

The easiest way to do this is to use the Undelete Object option on the File Menu of JOSM. This is perfect when it's a single object which needs to be undeleted. I've just done this and it looks as though all (nearly all?) ways are present in the data. I can try uploading whenever I get the go

I've decided not to do anything at the moment until I understand better what I'm doing - I feel way out of my depth here. If I did what I was suggesting earlier - not only might I duplicate the ways but I will probably generate hosts of conflicts Brian On 27 July 2018 at 13:16, Dave F wrote:

Jerry's OP query also contains the ways, so if you up load them you could be duplicating them. Have you used the 'revert changeset' JOSM plugin? It works well. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM/Plugins/Reverter It retains the history of the relations edits DaveF On 27/07/2018 12:56,

Thanks Jerry and Dave for your quick and helpful responses. Jerry I think if I just export your overpass turbo query to JOSM and then upload that will restore the relation? I've taken a look at the data and it looks OK to me. I'll also drop the offender a helpful note. He's an an avid

The relation for the Centenary Way in Warwickshire has disappeared. How do I trace which changeset removed it so I can revert? I walked and mapped this some time ago and I don't particularly want to re-create the relation Regards Brian ___ Talk-GB
