Hi all, Back in January/February of this year parts of Somerset, UK were flooded. This data was added to OpenStreetMap. Today a diary post on OpenStreetMap pointed me to a map rendering (MapSurfer). The map still shows the flooded area despite the fact that the waters have now retreated and the data has been removed from OpenStreetMap [1].
This is a good example of why we need to be very careful mapping temporary features. Many data users update infrequently. Suggestions of how to get the balance right are welcome. Regards, Rob [1] http://osmapa.pl/#lat=51.0220&lon=-2.8997&z=10&m=ms
