Hi Adam,

working with boundaries - even using JOSM - is not an easy job.

during your work, you "killed" some admin boundaries, because you forgot to add newly created way segment into every involved boundry.

you have to work more carefully and check every boundary, which may be involved.

see https://wambachers-osm.website/index.php/10-osm-reports/1403-countries-compare-2018-11-04 showind 5 damaged boundaries including Canada.

of course, i'll fix that right now.

das ganze ist ein wenig "diffus". place-nodes werden schon mal verwendet, um ein Label an der "richtigen" Stelle auf der Karte zu erzeugen. Oder der place-node wird als "label" in die Relation aufgenommen. Da der Carto-Stil sich aber einen Dreck darum schert, bring das dort eh nix. Aber schaden tut es auch nicht, darum lass ich das admin_celner oder das label in den relationen drin. Ich schmeisse nur die meisten redundanten Tags bei den Nodes weg - wenn ich mal drüber stolpere.

Kannst auch gerne mal im Forum nachfragen; dort bekommst du sicher die vielfältigsten Meinungen zu hören.

Gruss

Hi, ich stand - und stehe immer noch - auf dem Standpunkt, dass flächenbezogene Daten an die Fläche (Relation) gehören und nicht an einen Place-Node. Diese Daten sind oft redundant aber manchmal sogar widersprüchlich. Ich würde eher die "überschüssigen" Tags von den place-Nodes entfernen (inbes. is-in)

Hi Sebas,

you removed all tags from this boundary and therefor you killed it.

may be, you did it for error but if not, then it's a political motivated vandalism.
never ever do this again. otherwise you will be blocked.

if it was an error, please be more carefull.

walter

Hi, seems you are developing an online editor. right?

please enter discussion https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?pid=721607#p721607

it's the german forum but you may write in english. our questio is just "what the hell is going on there?"

writing such an editor is no simple task and tests must not be done using the common api. you have to use the development api.

walter

it's your country, i think :(

Hi, please stop changing boundaries to "land_area". the tagging for admin boundaries is: osm.wiki/Relation:boundary esp. osm.wiki/Relation:boundary#Relation_tags

you may add a tag like land_area=true or somethinjh else, but don't touch "type=boundary".

walter

has been reverted.

Da dort nach der Änderung keine Lücke entstanden ist, hab ich das Teil jetzt endgültig gelöscht. Stiftet nur Verwirrung.

Ich glaube, dass die große Rel relation/2075151 falsch ist, da die noch nicht einmal einen amtlichen Gemeindeschlüssel hat.
Werde das heute Abend zurücksetzen und dabei auf eventuelle Lücken achten.

Hi Michael, das ist über ein Jahr her.
Ich meine - auch wegen des CS-Kommentares - dass ich nur die AL8 gesetzt aber die Überlappung nicht bemerkt habe.

watt nu?

Gruss

Hi, can you tell us WHY you removed the admin tags? i think, OSM is loosing a lot of good information.
btw: we in germany are happy about any AL9 (suburb of a town), because that is very helpfull i.g. for using nominatim.

walter

no, hi did not re-add Kecamatan Tawaeli.

fixed by me: changeset/63211088

walter/germany

done
changeset/63070212

Hi Pier,

usually i'm able to revert totally deleted relation by josm, but this time it did not work because of an internal josm error.

ok, i'll delete "my" boundaries to get a clean area.

walter

Hi Pier,

some day ago you wrote me that i did not fix senegal - but i did! ok, by adding new boundaries, because i was not able to recover

now you are adding this boundaries a second time. therefore a lot of boundaries are duplicated.

that ain't good.

walter

hi, any reason why you removed the admin data?

and if you think that is ok, you should remove the admin tags from the boundary way too.

regard
walter

why did you delete the admin boundary of Al Jawf Region?

never ever delete objects, you don't know about.

will be reverted right now.

walter/germany

No idea, andy.

i usually don't change WAY attributes exept admin_level & sometimes boundary=administrative.

But I know "snapp" from the IRAN, because snapp is currently causing big problems there. if you need more infos pls. contact me via mail.

walter

Hi Mory,

thanks for working on onśm.
but yesterday you DELETED the boundaries of Senegal, Saint Louis and some more areas. That is nooo good.

please never ever delete relations, especially no boundary releations.

tryind to fix that, burt it's a lot of work.

Please be more carefully.

Regards
walter/germany
