Thanks for the golf course work you are putting in. In the future, please avoid deleting an object only to recreate it later. It destroys history of the object that might be important. It's always best to modify an object. It's not always possible, but it should be preferred. See osm.wiki/Keep_the_history

Thanks.

You have made a common error when you saw a fairway that looked like it didn't have a proper "Feature Type" defined and decided to add the fairway tag. The hole was already properly tagged, but was part of a relation of multiple objects known as a multipolygon. Please read this short wiki page where I've tried to explain what you are looking at and avoid making the mistake in the future. osm.wiki/ID_understanding_golf_course_relations Thanks.

See node/13622035786 for an example of overlap.

(Within the US, that is.)

Thanks. Your help is appreciated. After spending 3 years cleaning up tens of thousands of golf courses, I find it hard to believe you found examples of fairways and greens that overlap. Can you give me some examples where this is happening? Thx.

RE: way/762941613

When drawing golf course areas (such as greens, fairways, bunkers, tees, etc.), please be aware that the ways used to outline those areas can't cross over each other. Fairway outlines shouldn't cross over greens or bunkers or other fairways for example. If you could go back and clean up where you've made this mistake, that would be helpful. But more importantly, if you could stop from doing this in the future, it would be greatly appreciated. Please read the wiki for instructions and examples of how to better map golf courses: leisure=golf_course#Common_mapping_pitfalls. If you have any questions about golf course mapping, feel free to reach out.

Thanks for fixing!

Please make sure golf course elements like fairways don't overlap each other like you've done on the 17th hole. Thanks.

Please make sure that golf course elements like fairways, greens, and bunkers don't intersect/overlap each other like you did with the green here. Thanks.

Not to mention your edits are a bit sloppy in that the fairway is crossing over the green. It should never do that.

This looks like an automated edit of some sort. I've seen several of these nodes now that have the website tag value be messed up and look like this: "/url?q=http://citycafeamarillo.com/&opi=79508299&..." instead of simply "http://citycafeamarillo.com/"

Please review your recent changes and fix all of these incorrect website tags. Thanks.

RE: way/1127501566

When drawing golf course areas (i.e. greens, fairways, bunkers, tees, etc.), please be aware that the ways (lines) used to outline those areas must not cross over each other. Fairway outlines shouldn't cross over greens or bunkers or other fairways for example. Take a look at osm.wiki/File:Golf.png for an example of the "Wrong" way to map a fairway and a green along with the right way. There are some cases where a fringe exists around a green and you should draw the fairway outline completely around a green, leaving room for the fringe. Other times, the fairway and green butt up against each other. In that case the fairway and green should share the same nodes at the boundary between the two, and every node at the boundary needs to be shared leaving no gaps. When drawing these shared nodes, editors like iD (built into openstreetmap.org) will "snap" to an existing node if you get close enough. If you have any questions about golf course mapping, feel free to reach out. Thanks.

Thanks for the report. I can’t confirm these so I don’t typically make edits suggested in comments. Off you want to make the change yourself, please feel free. You can find more information at https://learnosm.org

Also, when you create a multipolygon relation with a fairway and a green (or various other combination of inner ways), you should tag the fairway way as fairway as you've already tagged the relation with inner/outer ways as a fairway. To also tag the outer way is wrong. thanks.

FYI, I fixed up a bunch of golf=hole ways that you had done recently. Please be aware that direction matters and the way should be drawn from the pin to the hole/green. Hopefully I found them all, but I just wanted you to be aware for your golf course map that you contribute to. thanks.

I fixed up the tee boxes that were overlapping with the fairways. Please make sure that they don't cross over each other, even if only a centimeter over. Thanks.

Is there isn't a clear difference between fairway grass and "rough" grass, it's probably best to just not draw in a rough and let people and software assume anything outside of the fairway should be considered "rough". Drawing an arbitrary area just makes for unnecessary confusion and work. Thanks.

Hello, you might want to read up on golf=hole

I noticed that several of your holes (the line marking the path of a well-hit ball) had extra nodes in them that shouldn't be there. I'll clean them up this time but wanted you to know for future reference.

Can you post a link to more recent imagery? The three imagery providers I use all seem to have indications of a golf course here. Even the behemoth company's sat imagery doesn't show the construction of apartments yet. I'm not doubting you. I would just like to see evidence.
