The tag you're looking for is width, not lanes. On Tue, May 8, 2018, 13:29 Tod Fitch wrote: > Most residential roads in my area are unstriped but are definitely built > for two lanes of traffic (one in each direction). It seems perfectly > reasonable to me to tag them with

Re: [Talk-us] Maximum number of tasks on US tasker

What I've observed is that MapRoulette works well with tasks that are highly localized and don't require much thinking. "A road crosses a railroad here: should it be a crossing, or a bridge?" is a good MapRoulette task, because unusual situations are rare, and the user doesn't need to consider

Re: [Talk-us] Maximum number of tasks on US tasker

Martijn, When I looked at the problem of un-reviewed roads in Washington State, I considered two approaches. First, use a Tasking Manager to break the state into smaller chunks. Looking at the map of the US, Washington State doesn't seem all that large. But when you get into breaking the state

Re: [Talk-us] Maximum number of tasks on US tasker

I get that, for the most part, MapRoulette does have a overwhelmingly positive benefit, the lanes challenge seemed quite underbaked. The end result was the majority of ways in Oklahoma that had lane tagging added by way of MR users were not split where the number of lanes changes, two way roads
