Hi All, I've been holding off answering while I did some homework on the last question. Here are my answers:
1) A 2,2 offset seems fine to me 2) Go ahead and send back tiles that need additional content from Bring, it's good to bring that to people's attention 3) We're not entirely sure either what these structures are, but we think they're gardens. You can label them as such for the time being - if necessary we'll go back and batch correct later.

I am also curious about the answers.

I am mapping for OSM since 2008 first only with GPS tracks in the areas I live (Switzerland) or travel or work (mainly Europe an a bit of Asia), now allways more with various open Areal Images. I am a civil-engineer that shifted to GIS, Orthophotography and CAD 15 years ago to end up managing big IT projects. Openstreetmap is a way to keep drawing maps and look at aerial images. Question one ========== I am mapping in Lira for a few days now using the Bing high resolution maps. By the way, I am using an Offset of 2;2m in JOSM that makes it correspond to http://hiu-maps.net/hot/1.0.0/lira_1_flipped/{zoom}/{x}/{y}.png<http://hiu-maps.net/hot/1.0.0/lira_1_flipped/%7Bzoom%7D/%7Bx%7D/%7By%7D.png> and looks coherent with the gps tracks that can be downloaded using JOSM. - Are there other advices about the value of the offset? Question two ========== I have seen that not every mapper seems aware of the Bing Imagery because some tasks are marked done although there would be more to get using Bing. I've fixed three tiles until now. - If the tile is marked as done, should I send it back in the workflow, an take it for fixing? Question 3 (see attached image) ======== I do often see something tha looks like a buiding in construction, but the smaller ones could also be stable or places to keep goods or animal at a safe place. Since there are a lot of those object it looks strange to me that there is such a construction activity in Lira. Could there be ruins or long lasting construction projects? What is that object?
