Hi Fatima, zoom in enough to see existing features. One feature should be represented only one element, either as a node or area but not both. See osm.wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element

Hi Fatima, ways eg. roads, paths should not exist as an island but should be connected to the nearest road. See the possible tags for highway=* highway=*?uselang=en#Roads

Also do not connect roads, paths, to buildings and landuse.

Hi Fatima, you should zoom in enough to see existing features to avoid adding duplicates.

Here is a getting started tutorial for iD Editor https://learnosm.org/en/beginner/id-editor/

Hi Fatima, welcome to OpenStreetMap and thanks for mapping. Use title case and full text for names eg. "Kamgbunli Community 1 Mosque" instead of upper case and abbreviations "KAMGBUNLI, COM. 1 MOSQUE"

Hi Aliu_Paul, thanks for mapping, I have reused this road and reclassified it. Take a look at the various values for highway=* highway=*#Roads

Also a good getting started resource is https://learnosm.org/en/beginner/id-editor/

Hi Mar Mar.
Is this node/10277614125 and the name TEMP REF real?

Hi NACHINDI _ ABDUL _RAUF, the building=yes is used to represent building footprints. Also zoom in enough to see existing features to avoid adding duplicates.

I have converted your contributions here to landuse=residential

Here is a beginners guide for OpenStreetMap and iD editor https://learnosm.org/en/beginner/

Hello Alex and welcome to OpenStreetMap, first take a look at https://welcome.openstreetmap.org/

Here are some few things to note:
- When using iD editor, you need to zoom in enough to see existing features before adding new ones to avoid add duplicate and overlapping features, an example is the street added here.
- Use tile case for names, that Moretti Street instead of moretti street
- even though the road is under construction it is currently being used as well, therefore using highway=residential would have been more appropriate. Using highway=construction means it is impassable and not used by vehicles.

I have now deleted the duplicate road and added the name the the existing road.

Hi Hay4d, good to see you continue to add street names from Ga West, kindly use Esri World Imagery primary background, it is currently the most suited. Also check it against publicly available GPS traces. To collect GPS traces yourself, a recommended mobile application for Android is OSMTracker osm.wiki/OSMTracker_(Android)

Kindly revert place=neighbourhood back to place=suburb as these are not neighbourhoods.

Well not my building:parts, but building:parts that look valid for www.openstreetmap.org/way/318654998 were deleted

I see my building:parts deleted :/, @Greg_Rose any clarifications? eg. way/777760306

These are not highway=pedestrian, highway=footway or highway=path are better suited. Please DO NOT tag for the renderer - osm.wiki/Tagging_for_the_renderer this can be better achieved outside OSM.

Hi Abdul Rahman78, welcome to OpenStreetMap. If you are not sure of what you doing please do not just assume and upload to OSM. For example a railway in the middle of nowhere way/1418151613

Hi Godfred,
Welcome to OpenStreetMap and thanks for mapping.
Here are some corrections:
- Use title case for names eg. Universal Church of Christ instead of ALL CAPS or abbreviations, do not use assumed names, see osm.wiki/Names#Proper_name_spelling
- Map one feature only once; either as a building (closed way) or a node with primary tags eg. amenity=place_of_worshop and name, but not both, see osm.wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element.
- addr:street is for the street name, not place or any random names. The other addr:* tags are also not to be completed where they do not exist, see - addr:=**

Hello mcliquid, thank you for commenting, you can see the changeset was reverted => changeset/177668950

This was changeset occurred to due a typo from me, missing out the first digit "1" in the way ID. It should have been way/1356366099 instead of way/356366099

Happy mapping!

Hi, this segment is only accessible by foot? way/1351905959 and why the type=bridge ? Can you please clarify

I have deleted duplicates from this changeset and tagged untagged features.

Please do not use the name=path or descriptions for names. This is the name of the features as they are on the ground.

Hi, you should first download existing data before adding new ones to avoid duplicates.

It is important to add a primary tag to features before uploading, also pay attentions to JOSM validations and warnings about untagged features before hitting the Upload button.

Here is an introduction to JOSM https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Introduction

And if you need to find out what tag works for what, here is an extensive list osm.wiki/Map_features

You can also ask on Ghana OpenStreetMap related forums and mailing list how to map Feature A or B if you are not sure.

If you are still not sure what OpenStreetMap is about see https://welcome.openstreetmap.org/

Oop!! I hit "Enter" instead of "Shift"

Deleted non-existing roads, removed assumed maxspeed=30 from roads

Hi BigKev97, where did this mass addition of street names came from? Looks non-free and copyrighted source. Can you please clarify.
