As a side note to the legal aspect, the house numbers can be horribly
inaccurate. I compared Oxted to a ground survey, and the old map
simply numbered the houses consecutively, which isn't reality on the
ground. One possible explanation is that brand new estates (1940s)
were done this way, as the
I'm of the view that if it is fundamentally a footway then it should
be tagged as highway=footway. If bicycles are allowed, then add
bicycle=designated.
If the question is here:
Having surveyed thousands of addresses in SW London, I've done a quick
compare and it looks pretty good to me. Sure there are the odd case
here and there where buildings have changed, but for the many parts of
London with Victorian to 1930s housing stock, this will be mostly
accurate. Just

What do people think? Should this be put forward to the tagging list?
Would anyone here use this scheme?

Given we have hundreds of existing and new modal filters* and school
streets**, I think we could do with having a *high level* tag for them
that captures the concept.
Currently, these are hard to find as they can be represented in many
ways. eg. for modal filters:
- highway=cycleway
-
l or Vector Map. If we could borrow styling from either TIGER Line or
the US Forest roads it might be feasible to make such a layer.

So, I followed the links below and added an offset. But this simply
isn't a viable solution to the problem because it only works for JOSM
and not iD.
I managed to convince one mapper to type in the offset manually in iD
every time, but that is a horrible thing to ask new mappers to do,

Wow, the imagery is really good. But in my area the imagery is about
3-4m east west and 3-4m north south out of alignment with Esri World

(for thousands of buildings).

Hi, I'm the changeset commenter,
I added the foot=yes on the common based on it being a registered common
with definite legal access. I also add foot=yes to signed public footpaths.
I would only add foot=designated where there is a blue person sign or
similar (not a green/wooden public footpath
I'm not convinced this data should be pulled into OSM. It would add a lot
of clutter that users would be tempted to move around or delete. In areas
like mine where I've added thousands of buildings and addresses from
surveys, it would be making matters worse not better. It would be a
disincentive

There isn't a "bumps_new" filter at present, so it is hard to see what
is to be added. I've already added a lot of traffic calming in
Hi,
It seems that COVID is likely to result in some rapid changes to road
networks, which OSM will need to capture.
I saw a tweet today of the area around the Bank of England, and a road
is now one way with a cycle lane the other way. Obviously I can't
survey that right now, but Google Maps

What about the Valuation Office Agency council tax data?

I found this recently, and it allows you to lookup from a postcode to
the individual addresses (presumably in their standard recognised
form). I've not used the data, although I'd love to because it is so

I'd like to distinguish between two kinds of gate on private roads:
- those where the gate is closed by default (eg automatic closing)
- those where the gate is open by default (the gate exists, but is
rarely if ever closed)
Currently I'm marking both as barrier=gate & access=private, but I
I know that area. That road is a typical minor country road. The A27
is divided at that point by a central barrier. It can only be entered
from Lewes, and exited to Beddingham.

As a relatively new mapper, two things stand out to me.
1) What Potlatch offers will be used. That means
h=footway/cycleway/bridleway/track will be used over h=path
2) The footway/cycleway/bridleway classification scheme makes perfect
sense to me. Any path I see I in town I can easily classify
