| 171710798 | The tagging of the highway you added looks valid, but I would continue it southward instead of east becasue that looks like the 'main line' of the highway.

|
| 171711061 | You correctly identified a highway here but it appears wide enough for a car to travel on and could be slightly more accurate. When mapping highways, please trace their shape accurately. Accurate highways aid navigation and prevent issues like data overlaps. Zoom in so that you can see the width of the highway. The lines you trace to represent highways should follow their centre; so add more nodes the more they curve and click at the start and end of straight sections, as a rule of thumb keep the lines you trace within the width of the highway you're mapping. Following tracks or road markings can help.If the highway fans out into several close alternative paths to the same destination then you only need to trace the median or what looks like the most used route.

| 171710574 | You are idenitfying groups of buildings but on a few occasions you tagged areas as place= rather than adding a POI with that tag. The area should be tagged as residential landuse.

| 171710746 | You correctly tagged the highway you added. PLease follow the centre of highways when mapping them; use more nodes the more the highway curves and try to keep the line data within the width of the road. Thank you for your contribution.

| 171710133 | Welcome to OSM! You correctly identified and tagged the settlement you added here. Highways should follow the centre of the road; use more nodes on turns and curves. The highway you added looks wide enough for a car to use so should be tagged as unclassified. Thank you for your contribution.

| 171710258 | This highway could be slightly more accurate but it's certainly wide enough for a car. Thank you for your contribution.

| 171710289 | Welcome to OSM! You have correctly identified settlements and highways. The settlements have been correctly tagged but could be at times slightly more accurate (smaller). These highways are more likely uncassified; residential highways are only typically found in larger settlements with several roads. Highways should follow the centre of roads; use more nodes when mapping turns and curves. Thank you for your contribution.

| 171710305 | Welcome to OSM! you correctly identified settlements and highways but the residential areas here are incorrectly tagged. The area should be tagged as a residential area and a POI should be tagged with the place value e.g. hamlet. Highways and residential areas should not share nodes; hold alt to prevent this. Please keep this feedback in mind when contributing in future. Thank you for your contribution.

| 171710325 | Welcome to OSM! The residential area and place tag look accurate, but the highways you added could be more accurate since highways should follow the centre of paths. Add more nodes on corners and curves. Thank you for your contribution.

| 171710358 | Welcome to OSM! Do not conect highways and residential areas, hold alt in ID to prevent this. The residential area you mapped in the north is likely a cemetary. Place tags look appropriate. Highways should follow the centre of the road; use more nodes on curves, turns and bends. Please keep this feedback in mind when contributing in future.

| 171709386 | These residential areas look valid and the place in the NE is correctly mapped. Please take care to map as accuartely as you can; in some areas the residential areas you mapped overlap existing building footpritns. Thank you for your contribution.

| 171488392 | You handled existing data well here by modifying it and making appropriate deletions. The residential area could ahve also included the buildingd to the SE.

| 171497925 | You correctly mapped this settlement. Sometimes adding a few extra nodes at the sharp corners of a residential area can help you map it more accurately. Thank you for your contribution.

| 171488809 | Hi, only one place node is necessary to represent a settlement. Consider which places might have a different name or are seperated by main highways or waterways. The likely residential area should be tagged with landuse=residential search for residential area in ID when tagging. Please keep this feedback in mind when contributing in future.

| 171379577 | Hi Andrew, Good job improving the accuracy of the two buildings in the SE and including the entirety of the building under construction in the NE (rather than just the roof. All building footprints you added here represent buildings visible in imagery however, the imagery allows them to be mapped more accurately; typically they are oversized or their shape should be more complex. See how I mapped some buildings you added here https://osmcha.org/changesets/171381560 It's much easier to map anything more complex than an L shaped building in JOSM, so mapping them with just a rectangle using ID is okay. I generally consider footprints that are equal to or smaller than the roof to be accurately sized. When mapping buildings, please trace the shape accurately. Accurate building footpritns aid population estimates and prevent issues like data overlaps. Zoom in so that you can see the outline of the building and mark the corners carefully. Exclude shadows and yards when tracing the footprint. Keep in mind that you are looking at the roofs of buildings, but mapping their footprints. Depending on how the scene is lit, pitched roofs may have light and dark sections that belong to one building. Generally pitched roofs overhang the walls of a building, so a footprint slightly smaller than the roof is accurate. You can scale selected features in ID with shift+(-/+), or JOSM with ctrl.+alt+Lclick & drag. Take care to make contributions that others can build upon. Please keep this feedback in mind when contributing in future. |

| 171378054 | Thanks for attending the mapathon today. This is a good contribuion overall. You even improved the accuracy of existing footprints! Some buildings have slightly more complex shapes like L or T. See most of the changse I made in this area here https://osmcha.org/changesets/171380006 Thank you for your contribution.

I resolved these issues in changesets;

| 171276697 | Why did you tag the highways in the way you did here? Particularly the Eastern and Southen one.
|
|
| 171277028 | Hi, why did you add a layer=2 tag to this highway? This appears to me to be an invalid use of the tag, so I have removed it in changeset/171339864. Please read layer=* Please keep this feedback in mind when contributing in future. Thank you for your contribution.

| 171060796 | I resolved this by deleting these footprints, while preserving the older ones.
