Alex,

The walkthrough the first time you use the iD editor is also good. If you
struggle do let me know. Happy to jump on a call and show you the basics.

Thanks
Rob

H Alex,

 

Welcome to OSM.

 

You could start with https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Beginners%27_guide
as well as other great information contained on the OSM wiki.

 

The main thing to remember is that unlike Google, OSM cannot accept any data
from copyrighted sources or data that sits under a licence that is not
compatible with OSM. Our main mapping sources are the imagery layers
available through the various OSM editing software and personal knowledge or
survey.

 

Happy mapping

 

Cheers

Andy (blackadder)

Hi 

I am a experienced Google Mapper with two million views of my edits of our
local Shrewsbury and Telford Hospitals.  However I now need to concentrate
on making changes to OSM. 

 

Is their any guides to starting out in OSM or local workshops to assist
those starting out?

 

Thank you in advance for any advice given

Hi,

It is about the place where the Hockley Brook takes the name of Elmley
Brook.

On osm I have created this relation :
https://gbr01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.openst
reetmap.org%2Frelation%2F15648926

On a map I found this :

3D=0

with one name at the bottom left and the other name at the top right (I mean
on my screen, I hope it will work for you).

So I was thinking the node of the changing name was at the confluence with
this stream :
https://gbr01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.openst
reetmap.org%2Frelation%2F15652436

%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C=bOKiShIVwFON3Vs5MoAs23gg7Qa74JU%2FiV%2Bapys5UkA%3D
=0

Can someone confirm that ?

And do you know the name of this stream r15652436 (perhaps Elmley Brook ?)

Best regards
