Hi all,
Just had the same thing happen near me (Croydon) but by a different
user (Zain Ahmad Hashmi, e.g.
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/34443141).
The only thing that occurred to me is that all the edits involved ways
passing over or under railway lines... although like Dave F I can't
se
(P.S. and as a local, I can confirm that no ways are actually named
"Vanguard Way" on the ground, at least not in the Croydon area)

There appears to be a user named "VanguardWay" (
http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/VanguardWay/edits) who has been
systematically adding "Vanguard Way" to all ways along the route, all in
mid-September of this year. To their credit, I suppose, they've added it
as an extra name with a forward slash
Hi all,
This feels like an appropriate thread to butt into and ask: is there an
accepted tag for grassy chalk downland, as found in southern England?
Would natural=fell be appropriate here too, or is that for proper
mountainous territory? If not, would something like "natural=grassland,
grassland=
Ok. So I guess I should message users Trubshaw (re A354) and UltimateKoopa
(re A22), then.
Thanks guys.

Hi,
This is kind of a tagging question, but is UK-specific and pretty
straightforward so I thought I'd post it here -- apologies & happy to
re-post if felt inappropriate.
I've noticed a couple of roads in the UK being downgraded in OSM from
"trunk" to "primary" on the basis that they are not "tru

Hi all,
Thanks for all your help with this. Thought I should update.
After getting confirmation of the validity of using the data, my friend and
his colleagues successfully merged their postcode list with the CodePoint
Open dataset and sent me the results. I then converted the

He's responded positively to comments in his latest diary entry, and has
asked for help with JOSM. Hopefully this can now be resolved! Only trouble
is, I fear what he wants to do is quite complex and he might struggle and
get annoyed again :-s

Hi all,
A friend has come to me with an interesting-sounding request, and I just
wondered how feasible it might be.
He has a database of UK postcodes and some measurement or other (not sure
what yet) and would like to create a heat map.
Neither of us are techies, but I've been contributing to OSM
Hi all,
The pedestrianised main shopping street in Croydon has a sign with the
following wording: "Pedestrian Zone. No vehicles except cycles and for
loading 6pm-10am."
How would you interpret that? I see at least 3 possibilities:
(a) Cycles permitted at any time; loading only permitted 6pm-10a

Yes, that's what I thin
Hi all,
I've noticed that in my area (Croydon, S London) a lot of streets & POIs
are identified by Nominatim with a nearby suburb of Croydon (Thornton
Heath) rather than with Croydon town itself. The Nominatim/geocoding guys
said this was due to nodes being used instead of areas, and suggested I

Does this allow the data to be used by OSM?
Thanks,

Hi all,
I was just wondering whether, beyond the obvious use of having accurate
boundary data in OSM, the Boundary Line data could also be used to align
aerial imagery, particularly at the closest zoom levels?
For instance, I map in South London, close to multiple borough boundaries.
As a test, I d
