Re: [OSM-talk] multipolygon source tags preferred method

2017-03-27 Per discussione David Jenne
In most of my edits, a source tag for the changeset would be appropriate.   But 
how does one go about doing this using the ID editor?  The only possible entry 
point I can see is in the "Changeset Comments" section.

Thanks,
Dave

Re: [OSM-talk] Winter Road Closures

2016-02-27 Per discussione David Jenne
Martin,

 

Thank you for pointing out that tagging choice, and I added it to the road. And 
I appreciate the input from the other mappers.

I’m hoping to get back up there this year and then more precisely locate the 
extent of the restrictions.

 

-Dave

 

 

you can tag this with conditional access, like

vehicle:conditional=no @ winter

 

there's syntax for dates etc. in the wiki

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Conditional_restrictions

 

the problem with seasonal=yes is that you don't know what it means, there are 
also winter roads only usable in the winter, eg over lakes or in wetlands. 
Other seasonal roads become ski routes in the winter ;-)

 

cheers,

Martin

Re: [OSM-talk] problems I cant fix

2014-09-07 Per discussione David Jenne
Hi Wouter,

 

I find it works best if a river’s edges are closed polygons and tagged as a 
areas (i.e. “riverbank”) instead of lines.  A riverbank can then assigned to a 
multipolygon using the “outer” role.  If using the ID editor to convert lines 
to areas, you may have to type the new tag into a slot under “All Tags”.  Any 
islands can be tagged as an “area” and assigned the “inner” role for the 
corresponding riverbank outer polygon.  To avoid exceeding the 2000 node upload 
limit, several abutting multi-polygons may be needed along the length of a 
river.

 

One example:  http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=15/45.9323/-111.4986

 

 

Good luck!

Dave

Subject: [OSM-talk] problems I cant fix

 

hallo,

 

I was working in the area of new orleans. and i came to this area:

 

https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=15/30.2417/-89.8358

 

and i was missing some rivers that were taged but were not showing up on the 
map.

 

so i found out that there was a broken link in the multie polygon.

 

i tried to fix it but when went up and down the river there were more and more 
problems.

 

and i tried fixing them all but i just dont have the knolage.

 

so i hope that sombody else can fix them. and that this is the right way to 
handel this problem.

 

thanks in advance,

 

wouter (wvdp)

[OSM-talk] Yahoo imagery missing

2010-05-11 Per discussione David Jenne
I and at least one other user (See OSM Diaries) have noticed that Yahoo
imagery is not currently displayed in the Potlatch editor.  Does anyone know
what the issue is?

 

Thanks,

Dave J
