I started adding individual signs (and street lamps and surface) but
only after i systematically started taking photos with Mapillary.
No mapping without images.
Once you start mapping signs you end up finding tons of errors
in the OSM Dataset (As with addresses - once you start mapping addresses
you find tons of street name errors). And i dont want to map anymore
without taking photos first as with the dense map there are a lot of
mappers and with the photos I can always go back and proof something is
exactly as I mapped it.
So at first street signs seem to be redundant but that redundancy
leads to verifyable data.
I started creating my little own JOSM style as i didnt find any
which showed the German zone speed limits and "Verkehrsberuhigt"
I'd wish someone produced a Germany street sign style with all the
DE:x signs also with additions like 1020-30 etc ...
And please - an OsmAND view with street signs ;)
