I would argue that maps can only show the world as the mapmaker wants it to be shown, and OSM should probably not be encouraging people (in any way) to be visiting sites that are clearly marked as illegal to visit. This seems like a bad precedent to set. I would include the bunker but not mark it

[Talk-us] Opinions on Devil's Slide Bunker (San Mateo, CA)

Joseph asks good, relevant questions regarding whether the access tag should be private vs. no. But, yes, I agree Frederik, there absolutely should be one of these two tags with that sign you displayed. (I've seen it many times driving past here before the tunnel was built, it's a bit more

Re: [Talk-us] Trouble with getting Superior National Forest boundary to render on standard map

Paul, I don't have a definitive answer for you, but rendering usually takes a while for large areas. I would expect it to render when zoomed in but wasn't able to see any rendering on a couple of spot checks. I did notice that around islands either the forest or the island, are shifted. I would

[Talk-us] Opinions on Devil's Slide Bunker (San Mateo, CA)

Hi, "Devil's Slide Bunker" is a WW2 observation point near Pacifica in San Mateo County in California. OSM has the bunker listed as a "tourism=viewpoint", along with access tracks from the nearby CA-1 highway: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/37.56868/-122.51506 The area is technically on

Re: [Talk-us] Opinions on Devil's Slide Bunker (San Mateo, CA)

Agree, it seems pretty clear.   Even if the signs are universally ignored,  OSM shouldn't mislead everyone about the legality. On 8/30/20 12:01 PM, Frederik Ramm wrote: Hi, "Devil's Slide Bunker" is a WW2 observation point near Pacifica in San Mateo County in California. OSM has the bunker

Hello, I recently added the (super complicated) Superior National Forest boundary to OSM, because I noticed it was missing. However, it refuses to render on the standard map, even though I ran it through JOSM's validator with no problems. (link to relation)
