I missed earlier emails on this subject but have had a quick play now. Instructions seem very lacking. Why do I get the option to add an OS OpenData polygon when the school is already mapped? That is likely to lead to duplication. Or is it just because I'm seeing live tiles but we’re using api06 data for comparison? When I clicked Add to OSM nothing seemed to happen, so I tried again. So I added it twice: http://api06.dev.openstreetmap.org/changeset/85444 http://api06.dev.openstreetmap.org/changeset/85445 Why is it adding a simple closed way as a multipolygon relation? Why not put the tags on the way? In the example changesets above, it is adding the website key with a blank value. I'm not sure blank values need adding. The changesets could probably use "source" tags to show where the data has been added from. When I clicked on "Add to OSM" I thought it might both add the multipolygon and open my default editor to allow me to trace buildings within the polygon, and any other details visible from Bing. Is this possible? Ed _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
