I've seen excess nodes created because people convert GPS traces to ways also... > Use the Simplify Way tool in Josm or the Tidy tool in potlatch before you > upload the way. The downside to this is the simplify function can remove too many nodes and reduce smoothing where and when it's actually needed. > Don't have a node <2m away from an intersection, it makes it really hard to > determine where the errors are. JOSM doesn't highlight errors well enough most of the time in my opinion, I've wasted a fair bit of time trying to track down problems that turned out to be false positives. Also when you choose to zoom to a problem, it shows the entire area instead of zooming to the actual spot where there is a problem. _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
