You can also use http://osmcha.mapbox.com/ you can filter by username or list of users or by bbox or many other combinations. Basic tutorial here: https://www.mapbox.com/mapping/validating-osm/#finding-suspicious-map-edits-using-osmcha On Fri, Feb 3, 2017 at 7:17 PM, noah ahles

Re: [HOT] Validating by Username

Hi! Yes, JOSM has the funtionality! First download the data for the area you want. JOSM has a search function[1] by pressing Control-F. "user:" will find all objects which were last edited by that username (e.g. "user:rorym" will find all objects last touched by rorym). The TODO list plugin[2]

Re: [HOT] Validating by Username

Hello, I see two ways for JOSM: one somewhat-clickable and without plugins, the other slightly more powerful. Clickable: - in the TM user profile, http://tasks.hotosm.org/user/Piskvor - there's an Overpass Turbo link to the user's edits, grouped by projects:

Re: [HOT] Validating by Username

Another approach: If you have an element (node, way, relation) that you are validating, once you select it in JOSM ("S" to put JOSM in "select mode" and then click on the element), you can press +H to see everyone who has ever edited it. On Wed, Feb 1, 2017 at 6:49 PM, john whelan

Re: [HOT] Validating by Username

You need JOSM for validating anyway so if you're using JOSM then you can simply search for everything and it will give you the mappers name. iD will not pick out the crossing ways and duplicate nodes etc. Have you read through

Hi All, I started a HOT club at the University of Vermont and we'd like to start validating real time (or as close to real time as possible) at mapathons to make sure people are editing to the best of their ability. We'd also like to set up geomentoring relationships to pair club members with new

Re: [HOT] Validating and imagery offset

This is my personal view after doing more than a fair amount of validation. If you square the buildings you are making an approximation on what the original mapper mapped. It doesn't look as pretty to leave it as it was but that is what I would do. If mappers used the JOSM building tool to

Hi John, I think what you write makes a lot of sense. And as the person who wrote you says, this is also a very common feeling new mappers have, not being sure if they should mark a task done. I think currently people who do create projects in the tasking manager try and keep what to map

Re: [HOT] validating tiles

This is kind of a very subtle point, but I have written about it before: I find it difficult to validate tiles because they so often need more work and are not really done. That leaves me with these choices: 1. Do the mapping myself, which I usually do, but then I have less time for

Needs another look? maybe, both incomplete and invalid are slightly negative. I like the idea of sending someone a more positive message when their tiles have been validated, could it include the comment by the validator? Cheerio John On 25 March 2015 at 11:27, James Conkling

And just to go off at a tangent has anyone thought about tapping into old people's homes? Some residents are mentally alert and it might help keep them amused. Not a full scale mapathon and you might even have to explain what a mouse is. Many will not have wifi, but JOSM can work off line and I

Re: [HOT] validating tiles

I wonder if this has been discussed before - and I apologized if it has - would it be a viable idea to add a slider or a percentage drop down menu for the mapper to select the amount of work that still needs to be done for each task? This can be a subjective and rough estimate from the person

Re: [HOT] validating tiles
