These guidelines will ensure that the data we add will be the most useful as possible for people with mobility limitations. You can also examine the sidewalks in areas Rosemont, where all of the sidewalks have been drawn to this standard.

Please also make sure you're using the correct offset for Bing imagery. For Montréal, this is 0.6,-1.54

Hello,

You have added some strange nodes to the sidewalks here. Tactile paving information goes on curb nodes, and there should not be crossing nodes in the middle of the sidewalk. Could you please revise?

If you are going to draw in sidewalks as separate ways, it's important that you add all the crossings as well. Without them, routers can't route people properly! I have written a guide to how I (and a few others) are mapping sidewalks in the area.

I would very much appreciate it if you could pass this on you whoever assigned you this project, so your fellow students stop making basic mistakes.

Hello, you have accidentally dragged part of the building into the road. Could you please fix it?

For clarity: the offset is for Bing imagery, if you use it.

Additionally, aligning roads to the center of the driving lanes would also necessitate a lot of realignment if the lane layout ever changes, like if they reverse a oneway and change which side the parking and bike lane are on. Whereas if it is centered in the physical width of the paved area, only tag changes are needed.

It depends if the bike lane is drawn as its own way or not. Because it is included as a tag, it makes sense to center the line in the middle of the entire span. I think it makes more sense as to why when you look at it with the JOSM lanes plugin. Centering the way in the middle of the drivable space means that the way's width will be too far to the west and not far enough to the east, in this case. Centering it in the middle of the driving lane also implies that roads are for cars — and while that might be the de facto norm in North America, it isn't strictly true.

But I haven't been able to find any discussion on it. I've been following the way that it was done in other areas I used to map, and whenever I've encountered a road here that was not aligned to the middle of the physical pavement it seemed to be because there was once a bike lane mapped as a separate way that was removed. (Usually you can tell because of some leftover nodes.) So I moved them back into alignment as part of the final cleanup when adding the bike lane tags.

I am not sure if `addr:*` is meant to be used to show which buildings a parking garage serves. The wiki doesn't say anything, unfortunately.

Hi, I recently updated all of 1re Avenue to reflect its new configuration. This appears to have duplicated it.

On a besoin d'une meilleure documentation sur le wiki pour les pistes cycables à Montréal... 😅

Si la piste est séparé seulement par les flexi-posts, on l'ajoute typiquement avec les tags à la rue seulement, pas avec un way dédié. Parce que la piste n'existe pas encore, est-ce qu'on peut attendre pour l'ajouter? (Je suis passé·e par ici aujourd'hui et l'avenue est entièrement en cours de construction et impassable. Je me suis fait une note pour moi-même de le donner le tag.)

This doesn't look correct. This "path" crosses many buildings, and I do not think it exists. what were you trying to do?
