[talk-au] NPWS landing sites task

Question re this Map Roulette task, thanks. I take it these details have come from a NPWS list of some form that says there is a landing site at "this" spot. So, even if it shows as just a patch of bare ground, we tag it as a landing site? Node or area? Of the few I've looked at, one was a

Re: [talk-au] Delivery Status Notification (Failure)

Thanks, but why did they show up now instead of at the end of the month / beginning of February? There were 2 for NSW & also 1 for Vic still showing this morning, which I've just fixed (the Vic one was already fixed from a couple of days ago?). One of the NSW ones was only created 2 days ago so

Re: [talk-au] Fire Station Operators

Just a thought? Are we allowed to use https://www.fire.nsw.gov.au/page.php?id=467 or not? I've thinking we would still need permission & waiver? Big question, I guess, is - are we commercial or not? Thanks Graeme ___ Talk-au mailing list

s. If you then add a driveway or similar, without deleting the building=key, these will then error, as a driveway can't cross a "building" Thanks Graeme On Mon, 6 Jan 2020 at 13:31, Graeme Fitzpatrick wrote: > Fine! > > The volunteer rural firies certainly do distinguis

Re: [talk-au] Delivery Status Notification (Failure)

& NSW is done! :-) Couldn't help thinking though, as I fixed some phone numbers, of just how many of these places - Bilpin, Bells Line of Road, Narooma & so on - are we now going to have to go back in & mark as destroyed? :-( Thanks Graeme On Thu, 2 Jan 2020 at 13:37, Graeme

Re: [talk-au] Fire Station Operators

Fine! The volunteer rural firies certainly do distinguish themselves from the urban professionals!, & their stations are all labelled Rural Fire Brigade, usually with RFS logo, so I'll go with that for rural & QFES for urban, but the same Wikidata tag on both. Thanks Graeme > >>>

Re: [talk-au] Fire Station Operators

Just added Qld Fire & Emergency details to the Guidelines page. It's a bit of a confusing one though - the various volunteer Rural Fire Brigades come under the Rural Fire Service, but that in turn is subordinate to QFES. Qld RFS doesn't have it's own Wikidata tag - should I list it as well,

Been following with interest - after all, don't we all need something *else* to map ‽ :-) Please have a look at https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?way=631189377#map=19/-33.81607/150.99852 , which I spotted while fixing phone numbers. So would you draw individual boxes around each of those 15
