Hey all,
A quick question here, since I'm somewhat out-of-touch with OSM best
practices right now. Last week I hiked a couple of trails in a local
provincial park, and collected traces with intent to map them. However,
I know the data is of questionable quality...on the first trail, I
walked one segment twice and there's a significant disparity between the
two gps tracks, and on the second trail, my GPS was reporting 20-30m
position error at times.
Neither of these trails existed in OSM at all (no GPS tracks, no ways).
I've uploaded my GPS traces and I'm mapping my trails on the assumption
that an inaccurate trace is better than no data at all, but wanted to
check with the wider community to see what the general consensus was on
this. Is there anything special I should tag the trace or way with to
indicate that I know the tracks are a little flaky?
