[Talk-GB] Overpass question: Fixmes and surroundings

2019-09-24 Thread Rob Nickerson
Hi all, I'm trying to craft a overpass query that returns fixmes and the surrounding OSM data. I seem to have got it working in Overpass Turbo. I want to use this in JOSM but it's not returning all the same Ways as seen in Overpass Turbo. http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/Myw Anyone able to help me

I am inclined to go with disused:shop to indicate it is no longer a travel agent, but leave the name as it is likely to remain a landmark for sometime. Our local Toys'R'Us has only recently lost its branding. Also being careful not to remove his statue from outside Leicester railway station,

Something has happened. The company went into liquidation (not administration under which, I believe, they could still operate) & the shops have closed. If your local chippy closed would you leave it mapped as still open for business? On 24/09/2019 14:47, Chris Hill wrote: Thomas Cook shops

Thomas Cook shops are not vacant. They may not be open to the public today, but they may well be reopened by a new owner in the future and that may even be under the Thomas Cook brand if the administrator sells some or all of them to another company. In the mean time they are still branded and

Re: shop=vacant. This is a popular alternative tag, but removes the previous usage from the latest version. I found knowing this helpful when a new shop replaces it - "There's a new café opening in what used to be the flower shop" How is the name tag dealt with if disused: isn't used? Tony.

I too have encountered a number of Notes that have been addressed, but not formally "Resolved".  (e.g. the name of a business marked on a building that now has that name tagged)  I surmise that this is because (in the iD editor, at least) the Notes are not visible when in Edit mode, so the

Great idea. Think there should also be an effort to open notes for some fixmes which require a survey, as many go unnoticed. Fixmes can only be viewed in iD or with a QA tool, while notes can be viewed on osm.org and StreetComplete which is useful for actually going out and surveying them.
