Re: [Talk-us] Gated communities

I like this answer. Behind the gates I tend to tag as private, but giving one of the barriers access=destination should be enough for that to be the default answer for going in, if implemented. Not really something common in Oklahoma, usually gated communities have only one way in or out that

Re: [Talk-us] Gated communities

What about marking the resident-only gates with access=private and the guest gate as access=destination? On Wed, Mar 20, 2019, 16:03 Eric H. Christensen via Talk-us < talk-us@openstreetmap.org> wrote: > -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- > Hash: SHA256 > > ‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐ > On

[Talk-us] Gated communities

Hi, DWG have been contacted by a resident of a gated community in Florida. They were unhappy about our routing which apparently leads people through an unmanned "residents only" gate where they won't get in, instead of to the manned main gate. I wonder how to deal with this, firstly from a "what

Re: [Talk-us] Rails-to-Trails data

An update. Seeing Mark's recent post about is_in reminded me that it has been two weeks since I politely asked the Rails-To-Trails Conservancy to donate to OSM the same trail data they donated to Google Maps. I did receive a reply that my message was forwarded to their "TrailLink group that

Dear all, Sorry for cross-posting. Please see the announcement of the Academic Track at the global State of the Map 2019 in Heidelberg, Germany. We are looking for scientific contributions (abstracts between 500 and 800 words) by May 10, 2019. This is a great opportunity to showcase your OSM

[Talk-us] Proposed mechanical edit - remove objects that are not existing according to source of GNIS import that added them

There are thousands of objects mistakenly imported to OSM from GNIS. Objects proposed to be deleted were documented in GNIS database as not existing at time of the import, but were imported anyway. Edit would remove many nonexisting objects that are currently misleading users of OSM data and

Re: [Talk-us] Proposed mechanical edit - remove is_in:continent in USA

Mateusz, as far as I am concerned, *all* is_in tags are unnecessary at best and potentially misleading, and could be removed. I'd prefer adding these tags to the auto remove list in editors though, rather than running mechanical edits to remove them. I strongly object to doing this in a

[Talk-us] Proposed mechanical edit - remove is_in:continent in USA

is_in:continent=* is subjective as both division Earth landmass into continents[1] and boundaries between continents[2] are mostly subjective. There are many competing ways to split world into continents and OSM is not proper place to record all of them or one selected system. In rare cases
