nah, I'd tag this "details from survey and web research and tracing from bing aerial imagery" What I meant (because I saw this often looking at changesets): people adding a POI here and another one 50km away and another street 20km away. Why not have this uploaded in different changesets? When you have 1 object (restaurant in your example) in one changeset I'd consider this "sufficiently atomic". Another issue are huge changesets with thousands of objects. They will almost never be clear to another mapper looking at them, already for the size, and they will also most probably produce conflicts in the case you'd want to revert them. IMHO it doesn't matter so much where the building outline comes from for example, either it is good, than you won't touch it, or it is not correct or it's inaccurate and you'd modify it to make it better. It's never a question where it comes from, but always how well it was done and whether it is still describing the current situation. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
