As a validator I spend most of my time fixing things. If a HOT mapper has been mapping for a day and draws a motorway between two small villages two kilometers apart after checking the imagery you can make a reasonable guess that it may not be correct. In this case there are more than 10,000 untagged ways by one mapper and around 14,500 groups of buildings tagged as a building by another. Not only that but some where originally tagged as landuse=residential. Problem is I can see tall buildings in a downtown center core here which are probably offices. Without boots on the ground what do you tag them? They aren't all residential almost certainly. Adjusting a group of buildings tagged building=yes to a single building is a possibility but for more than 25,000 ways? Remembering its faster to redraw them with the JOSM plugin building_tool. I'm not that dedicated. Cheerio John On 8 November 2017 at 20:21, Warin <[email protected]> wrote: > On 09-Nov-17 07:47 AM, Martin Koppenhoefer wrote: > > > > sent from a phone > > On 8.
