My gut feel is as simple as possible especially when dealing with larger areas. I loaded a 215 kb file into JOSM and found 181 duplicated buildings but after dumping them in a todo list JOSM seemed reluctant to delete them one at a time. Could it work through a selected area? There is already a

I am not sure what is already included in JOSM validations, but with orthogonal and Duplicates, we cover most of the  newbies tracing buildings problems that we can automatically spot analyzing the data. Others would be about dimensions that exceed normal building size, this including big insti

I have a fix for the speed issue, but need to test before posting. There is also bug with how the overlap is computed. Do you want both tests in the same script? I could include "building ways with unclosed area", anything else? On Fri, Nov 24, 2017 at 4:14 PM, Pierre Béland wrote: > Ok > > for

Ok for the script, I simply commented the console print message and it does work. Great if developpers could collaborate to improve this as a Building Validation plugin. It could include other features such as building ways with unclosed area   Pierre Le vendredi 24 novembre 2017 18:03:4

For a small number it works well. When faced with a sample with a thousand buildings it takes a little longer. The real test is how do you cope with a 2 mb file of OSM data containing a few thousand buildings? But having said that what you can do is if you spot one then download the surrounding
