Those are mines, would be happy to read if others have the same view:* During the exercise came some questions about the typologies of roads (residential vs. tracks vs. path...). During a real emergency we would probably want to avoid wasting too much time on explaining to newbies (like me) what tag relates to what real-world-feature (and what it looks like on the satellite imagery). We also want to minimize the amount of work for those who will validate. Ideally, someone with field knowledge of the area to map (or with knowledge of a similar area) should develop a "quick illustrated typology". This would take the form of a simple table showing: o The /key = tag/ o An example of what such a feature looks like on the satellite imagery (because a "residential street" will not look the same in a refugee camp in Eastern Africa, in downtown Miami or in a rural area of Afghanistan) o A picture of such a feature in the real world
It would be great to have tagging presets which can be loaded into josm for each task. That would greatly reduce the number of decisions I have to make as a contributor.
Also the task could point to an already validated tile (probably done by the administrator of the task) to showcase the various features.
