Interesting. What's grade3-5 supposed to mean?

Hi,

Thanks a lot for resolving this note.

I've noticed that you added the undocumented value grade4-5 for tracktype. I'm pretty sure that no data consumer (e. g. routing engines) will be able to handle this. I think it's much better to decide for a documented value (either tracktype=grade4 or tracktype=grade5).

Hi,
Thanks for resolving this note: note/3693696

Just remember to close notes when you solve them; this way you prevent others from having to play Sherlock Holmes ;-)

Happy mapping!

Hi Hammler,

Hello from OSM. In case you read this, can you comment on this note? note/2737885

Ah, sorry for that!

Hi,
The note tag you've added in v1 of way/815796273/history looks like advertisement, which is not wanted on osm. Hence, I removed it.

Hi,
welcome to Openstreetmap! If you decide to map sidewalks separately, like here: way/1148513999, then it's good practice make sure to tag the carriageway with sidewalk=separate + foot=use_sidepath

Happy mapping!

Hi,
welcome to OSM. When you decide to map sidewalks separately from the carriageway, then please make sure they are connected to crossing roads at intersections wherever pedestrians can cross.

Otherwise, routing engines won't be able to use the sidewalks you've mapped

Do you have a picture?

Hi,
Could you explain why you've added this ATM while questioning yourself whether it really exists?

Hi,
I think you accidentally made a mistake here: note/3658639

Hey,

please try to create smaller changesets when possible. This will make it much easier for others to understand what you're doing.

Thanks and happy mapping!

Hi,
Thanks for adding the sidewalks. When you do this, the correct way would be to

1) Add sidewalk=separate + foot=use_sidepath to the carriage way (or sidewalk=left or sidewalk=right if you map only the sidewalk on side)
2) Either consistently map or not map sidewalks in a neighbourhood of similar streets.

Happy mapping!

Cool, looks like it's tagged correctly then!

Do you happen to know how residents access their sidestreets, like for example Šivičeva?

Ok. Thank you for keeping track of this. Accurate contribution to Openstreetmap is always very welcome.

You should obviously not do wrong mapping in OSM because of your individual software requirements. The way to go would be to improve your software, not hacking osm data by adding wrong tags.

As you might be aware, openstreetmap is a community project. The data are free to *use* by they *belong* to the community. Thousands of voluntary mappers put millions of hours of unpaid work into this project. It serves a very wide range of a multitude of purposes. OSM is not built to serve the special purposes of only particular company.

There are a couple of good routing engines that distinguish between pedestrians and cyclists. One example is Graphhopper:

Hey,
welcome to Openstreetmap. You tagged Ižanska with access=no. A couple of questions:

* The tag implies that *nothing* can can through (not even pedestrians or cyclists). Is this true? If not, then motor_vehicle=no would be the correct tag.

* How long will this restriction last? It is important that someone will remove the tag once construction is over. For short closures, it is often better to not map them at all or to use other mapping techniques that make sure someone will check the progress from time to time

Hi,
Great thing that you're adding all these service roads!

Just a small advice: You tend to create changesets with large spatial extent. This makes is hard for others to understand what you're doing and also to spot mistakes (which happen to everyone).

You make life easier for your fellow mappers if you create smaller changesets.

Thanks. :-)
