Hi,
I'm posting this inquiry to gather best practices when editing nodes
and ways. Basically, OSM data are composed of two data primitives:
nodes (points, vertices) and ways (lines and polygons). Relations are
special type of ways and nodes. The data model allows for sharing
nodes/ways with dif
This thread is related to the arivac bohol tagging. I'm forwarding
this to the list so that bohol mappers can catch-up on the discussion.
Thanks to rally for pointing this out.

Hi,
Item 19 (internet cafe) tags are based on this page :

A computer icon would indeed be better than a coffee cup, but in France for
instance, an internet cafe often really looks like a cafe with a bar/counter

Nodes should be shared if the two ways sharing that node have an intrinsic
positional relationship on that node. If you use two different nodes with
the same coordinates, then you risk having the duplicated node problem.
Hi,
I'm making some videos on editing data in OSM. This is intended for
newbies. My plan is to make short screencast focusing on one
feature/editing tip.
So far I made two videos using Potlatch as an editor:
- Splitting ways in Potlatch
- Edit data using your uploaded GPS tracks
See videos her
Other videos links for newbies:
