Interesting! But where's the river? I see you mapped a lake that has "river" in the name, so I'm a bit confused!

Great, no problem, thanks for fixing them!

Hi there, is this a park or is it just a vacant lot? It's hard to tell from the imagery.

Can you verify the name of this park by visiting it on-the-ground?

Also, this triangular shape doesn't quite match the shape of the grassy area as seen in the Bing imagery. I think it needs a bit of tweaking.

Other than that, though, your work looks great. Thank you for your work adding all these buildings!

Also, I'm not sure if you're using a non-standard map projection in JOSM, but most of your buildings are not squareish. From the look of the satellite imagery in this spot, the buildings probably all have right angles (I don't see any unusual architectural construction here). Both iD and JOSM have tools to help you square up your buildings after you draw them by hand.

Hi! Are you tracing these buildings from the Bing imagery, or are you importing them from another dataset? If you're tracing them yourself, then it's not really an "import". You don't need to use that term. Imports are totally OK in OSM, but they're controversial. wiki.osm.org/wiki/Import

Geometry looks good, but should this be a service road, or just a regular residential road? Is it different from the other roads that it connects to?

Hello Wendy,
It looks like this changeset deleted 48 nodes in the area. I assume this was an accident? If so, we can revert your edit and bring back all those deleted venues.

Is this feature related? node/357304270
Should they be combined?

Did you capture any GPS traces that you could upload to OSM?

Great! You could also trace the area of the park, instead of just adding a node. I can almost see how far it goes by looking at the satellite imagery, but you might have a better idea with on-the-ground knowledge.

👍

Did you buy any eggs at the Egg Shack?

I tried tracing some more of the Indus River delta next to the Rann of Kutch. I should probably add more tags like wetland=yes, at minimum. This was mainly a test to see how hard it is to trace this area, and how hard it is to deal with existing PGS coastlines.

I think it does make a lot of sense... but this is my first time trying to understand the complexity of disputed boundaries in OSM. It seems like boundary=claim is useful, and less complicated than some of the other options.

Hi PlaneMad, this boundary=claim tag is interesting, but I don't see it documented anywhere. Can you point me to any more information about this tag?
