This is just a being inquisitive question.
Today I marked paved (was unpaved) route from Laggan to Taralga NSW
after I drove it. I note that the underlying map (LPI?) actually
showed the sections paved.
The LPI Base Map does not show road surfaces, it does show road classes.
Am I correct in assuming that there as a first pass project that
marked paved roads from imagery? if not how did it happen?
The last time one section of that road was tagged for surface was by
survey in 2010.
Changes since then have been to the road name and adding detail (more
nodes).
Is there an automation project in place that looks at imagery changes
(by date) and pushes them for review or similar? (I'd be interested in
review of rural areas as I travel often)
There doesn't seem to be much info at
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australia (NSW is particularly old
- my link is also really slow so I cant easily search)
Are you using JOSM? There is a version that is very slow to show imagery
.. I am using version 15690 and that seems ok.
The LPI Imagery has the best resolution. Maxstar was more up to date but
there was a problem with overuse of it so it has been withdrawn for the
time being.
