Re: [OSM-talk] OSM status POIs?

[Shaun McDonald]

Mappers have in the past put in stubs with a few nodes tailing off, to state that there is something here that needs to be surveyed further.

Good idea - but can we do it simply by adding the stub of a way at the
relevant point?

certain places.


want to stop. I've tried to make mental notes to return and map those
missing roads at a later time but as time goes by, you tend to forget.

It would be very useful to have a POI saying for example "unmapped

coming along) that there's something here not yet mapped.

These POIs would also serve as "bite-size" mapping projects if you're
looking for quick things to do in your area.



Cheers,

I realized when mapping today that it would be very useful to have a set of OSM status POIs that you could use to mark the status of the mapping at I find I sometimes have to skip roads, tracks or paths, because I am too tired, don't have time, or that I'm going at good speed downhill and don't highway/path etc. starts here". Then you could check out and select those points in your area, and they would serve as a reminder to you (or others I guess there are other instances where an OSM status POIs would be useful.
