Clifford, yes I could sense what you were trying to say: I have a
thirty+ year Quality background at Apple, Adobe, IBM, the University
of California (and others) as an employee, contractor, subcontractor
and consultant. You are doing fine, you just did fine.
OSM does sample edits
I've had to clean up his edits before. What bothers me is that he's
unresponsive and never leaves any comments on his edits. I've brought him
up before to DWG but nothing's been done.

After a delay the DWG and OSMF have reached conclusions on the case
involving a turn restriction dispute between Paul Johnson and NE2 that was
referred to it by Paul Johnson, NE2, and multiple other members of the
community. This decision took an extended amount of time due to the
investigation and
I would like to give a heads-up to any Humanitarian OSM Team folks on this,
since assistance may be needed as early as this weekend given developing
events with dangerous storms moving through most major Oklahoma cities at
this hour.
This looks like it's going to be another hairy day for Oklahoma,

We need:
1. More people. A big part of the map is untouched. We could
reach out more to the educational community to get middle-school and
high-school students involved.
2. Better training for people who are new to OSM. I think
learnosm.org is very good. I'm a

Yes, quality lies in the eye of the beholder. Or perhaps better said in the
eye of the data consumer. Therefore the assessment of quality will depend on
the application and use case you have in mind.

Frederic:
Validator is an excellent tool, but currently only works with JOSM.
I'd love to see Potlatch and/or iD do something similar. True, many
(most) ignore what Validator may report, and while Errors are always
Errors, Warnings are a bit more subtle and really must be taken one
at a time
Thanks to Martijn and others for their input. I'll share my presentation via
slideshare once completed.
Please continue to share your insights :)

As already noted, quality is in the eye of the beholder. That said, there
are some objective quality indicators such as positional accuracy,
completeness, resolution. I summarized this in a paper a few years ago from
another source, where I also introduced the notion of 'crowd quality' in an

One thing that would help in the editor software would be, once you select a
tag, and list the preset values available, to have the option to list the wiki
descriptions of what those values mean. This should be optional, and should
come up in a separate window so you don't lose track of what yo
