The maintainers of Nominatim have kindly explained what would be needed
to finally fix this:

https://github.com/twain47/Nominatim/issues/541#issuecomment-251226824

There are 3 things, in increasing order of difficulty. One of them
solves postcode issues for the whole world, which is a juicy prize. So
if this bugs anyone else, who has some spare hacking time, please dig in!

[Talk-GB] Accessibility data collection

[Székely Tamás]

 

Dear All, 

 

We are working on creating accessibility maps of cities and trying to
involve greater masses to contribute.

 

As an example of this we've launched a "mini campaign" this morning - a
puzzle challenge for the wider community to collect accessibility data in
Portsmouth.

 

Please have a look at the game here:  
https://route4u.org/portsmouth/  and there's also a short blog article about
it here:

http://blog.route4u.org/2016/10/06/join-the-portsmouth-puzzle-game-instructi
ons/   

 

I'd highly appreciate if you'd share this with people in your networks if
you find it interesting and useful.

 

I am also very curious about any possible suggestions or questions you may
have about our pilot in Portsmouth!

 

Thank you and kind regards,

Tamas

The shared node problem? I don't know. Certainly not by me.
I've become increasingly reluctant to report issues like this. Not 
solely to mapnik carto but all data users. But I think that's for a 
separate posting.

Fixed

http://osm.org/go/euwo8goAQ?m=

It appears that, for some reason, mapnik render (I think it is just this 
one) gets confused when the start/end of a closed polygon shares a node 
with another closed polygon. I've moved it & it now renders

The next section to the north also has a name and that is rendered.

[Talk-GB] River Severn riverbank not redering

[Ian Caldwell]

Just noticed that https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/72551464 is not being
rendered on the  standard map. It has not been edited for two years and the
adjoining riverbanks are being rendered. Anybody know why?
