Hi there, thanks for being such a great OSM contributor! Remember, if a footway is parallel with and next to a street, it's probably a sidewalk and the road should be tagged with sidewalk=separate.

Thanks! Yeah I picked a slightly more recent changeset to comment on as I was going thru various local editors and their contributions.

Please avoid making edits that span half the world whenever possible. Thanks!

Hi Jrpear! As part of my Sonoma County Building/Address Import, I'm updating some building shapes based on county data. Since you created many of the buildings in this area, I wanted to check with you before uploading those changes. You can preview them in JOSM by opening the sample-1007.osm file here:

Hiya! It was an interesting concept but ultimately I think data consumers aren't really ready for it: even if it were super relevant (like if a certain floor of a parking garage were critical information, such as when each floor is connected to different businesses in a mall or you need to be on a certain floor in order to drive to another area) your GPS app will likely be unable to tell how high up you are, and likely be unable to distinguish which loop you're on, and have poor satellite reception, so simply tagging either the ground or topmost level is probably the best way to go for the near future.

Main exception I can imagine to that would be situations like the mall to the West where you really want to map the fact that some parking garage ways are bridges over a larger road, but again it's hard to think of a time when a routing engine would actually send you that way intentionally and correctly.

Hi there, thanks for your contribution! FYI the Source tag belongs on your changeset, not the map item (fencing academy) itself. Otherwise looks good and thanks again!

Please keep your changesets confined to a reasonable geographical area. When you edit a medical office in Vancouver and a bar in the Bahamas, it looks like you edited the entire continental United States, thousands of people get notified of your change, and our tools start to choke when anyone tries to review what you did.
