hey, this was all automated, since we have permission to use their data (osm.wiki/Contributors#New_Zealand ). So it took about 5minutes to run the script and double check the result.

if you know any programming languages like Python or JavaScript, Level0 is an easy way to upload the results from your own script

done, to match the more common approach in NZ: https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/28i6

169540131

hi, could you please explain a bit more about this change? Tristram Ave has significantly higher traffic volumes than the road through Milford, so how come you inverted the road classifications?

169482881

but it's not possible to go straight ahead at this intersection ?

168159426

hey, the problem with access=destination is that it's now impossible to access sylvia park train station using navigation software. Any objection if i remove that tag from the main access road? since you are allowed to drive to the train station to drop someone off, or walk/cycle to the train station

heya, when I mapped this a year ago, there was a huge construction program underway to widen Memorial Ave, which seemed to be finished when I went past last week.

The little construction area between Old Windsor Road and the T-Way can be changed back to landuse=grass (confirmed last week). I assume the west side can too, but I havent surveyed this myself

(leaving a comment for extra visibility) this seems very dubious, it's clearly marked as helipad, but maybe it's a joke from the landowner?

169284257

hey again, i think the normal approach is to add the name to the landuse=retail area - see https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/28i6 for similar examples around NZ or way/354967893 for a local example

hey, are you refering to the Great Taste Trail? There are already two relations for this trail : relation/2656812 and relation/11589483

so you just need to add wikidata=Q135422429 to one of the existing relations, no need to create new one. Then after a day or two Template:Maplink should work

sorry for the confusion, i removed abandoned=yes so it's less confusing. To clarify, it's 'abandoned' in the sense that the 6-lane road is no longer a busy highway, but it's still open to the public and there are spray-painted carpark markings:

hey, is node/13011393177 intentionally different from node/9012940607 which seems to refer to the same wikipedia article? i'm not a local, just wanted to double check. seems like it would be better to fix the name on node/9012940607 instead

169137786

thanks for bring this up, based on https://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/51316 and https://gazetteer.linz.govt.nz/place/14912 the node further offshore is Wellington Rock, so I've removed the name from the other area

168857761

*applies to the section between

168857761

according to https://gazetteer.linz.govt.nz/place/57504, the name Te Ara-o-Tūrongo only applies to the Taumarunui and Te Awamutu, which is represented by relation/15094188

159631066

okay sure, I didn't put too much thought into this. Basically I saw the dismount sign and assumed it must be a continuation of the cycleway from the south, but you gotta dismount for this final section.

sooooo are there cases where highway=cycleway + bicycle=dismount would be valid? or does "dismount" imply "not a cycleway"?

anyway I trust your judgement, just curious about how to interpret this

168544593

hey thanks for all your edits !! just an FYI that the recommended approach these days is to continue the stream line through any ponds/river areas like way/370832200

you might actually find it faster to right-click the stream's end point and then click "Continue", rather than adding every pond to the relation.

both options work fine, but connecting all the river/stream lines has an added benefit since it allows us to generate watershed maps like https://waterwaymap.org/#map=6.23/-38.53/175.096

168032218

i've changed it to expressway=* instead, which is designed exactly for this situation, where it doesn't quite meet the standards (see the link above for details).

some OSM-based maps like OSM Americana already support this tag: https://americanamap.org/#map=13.08/-41.12254/175.03412

168117610

yeah no stress, but maybe chat with some folks who use JOSM, I've seen this type of problem before, but I don't use JOSM so I can't tell ya which setting is wrong

i removed that tag from changeset/168211778 & subsequent changestes

168117610

hey, i think your JOSM settings might be misconfigured, looks like you've added source=esri to >100,000 nodes in the past few days: see https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/26Q0 and https://osmstats.neis-one.org/?item=countries&country=New%20Zealand where I noticed the spike

I believe it's a common issue for JOSM users, but i don't know any more than that

167686106

sorry I forgot to reply but I did fix the building:part issues. I don't remember how much of the carpark building has shops on the ground floor, so I expanded the area to cover all of it for now
