Online Briefing on the 2021 OSMF Community Survey | Hi Allan, Thanks again for your presentation of the results. My request for the additional tabulation after your session was: How important is the takeover protection (question S1, choice 1) for a) the survey respondents who are a corporate sponsor of OSM or a commercial company using OSM data (question D1, choices 5, 6, or and b) those respondents who are neither? Is there a difference between the two groups? If yes, is it (statistically) significant? Many thanks in advance for the response |

Announcing OSM Queries | Hi Leigh, Would you be interested in some feedback and comments I might have as I go along with your tutorials? |

A very quick and dirty stab at visualising OSMF 2021 survey results | Confirmed it doesn’t work on Safari. Michal - I did relink to the images hosted by you, thanks for this! Can you confirm if they appear fine on your end now? |

Announcing OSM Queries | How cool is that. Maybe I’ll finally learn Overpass thanks to this! Thanks so much. |

Boundary | Hi, Depends how you define a ‘neighbourhood’ :) I invite you to explore https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:admin_level as well as https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Template:Admin_level_10 - there is a specific entry on Canada, in case that helps. It seems that depending on the city, it may be level 9 or 10. |

A very quick and dirty stab at visualising OSMF 2021 survey results | Thanks both, I’ll test it again with Safari later today and replace the images if needed. |

Summary Maps of OSMF 2021 Survey Results | Hi Michal, Many thanks for this work - this is really interesting and helpful. Thanks to you providing all your working files, I was able to write a follow-up with some adjustments here |

Placenames in KRI | Bravo Mapper, I think that your recommendation
sounds pretty much exactly like the standard OSM procedure:
A good way is to always look for signposts, for example I wonder what do the others think? |

Placenames in KRI | Hello, thanks for this - this is very helpful! Can you please explain a little more what you mean by:

Building community - OSM India | Thank you naveenpf, This is helpful, I will use some of these tricks myself. One tool I have tried before when looking for users to build a community was http://resultmaps.neis-one.org/oooc - perhaps you find it interesting too? Regards |

Placenames in KRI | If everyone prefers, I can start with a few points of my own. All of these are just subjective, so please feel free to discuss and disagree - in fact, this is the point to do so.
So to conclude, let me know your opinions on:

Placenames in KRI | Thank you to everyone for responding! subamiche, @$O, Ahmad-0772, Bravo Mapper - would you like to maybe start with providing your first point of view on how do you think names in KRI should be tagged? There is a lot of background resources we can look at for this, but maybe the best thing would be to first get your ‘raw’ ideas, if you agree? I think for now comments in here are fine, if we need later we can create an OSM wiki page. |

CartONG and RefugeeSiteMappingDataGlobalStandardization | Thank you for the link Leonie, most helpful. Can you please say if there’s a plan to fix the temporary place=refugee_camp tags? There are still hundreds of them in OSM, and literally the first one I checked today is an example of actual damage done to the valid tagging system by replacing place=village with place=refugee_camp. Regards |

CartONG and RefugeeSiteMappingDataGlobalStandardization | @Léonie Miège On your point:
Could you please point me to the specific database and layer you are referring to here? Many thanks in advance |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
CartONG and RefugeeSiteMappingDataGlobalStandardization | Thank you Leonie for taking the time for this detailed explanation, it is very appreciated. Indeed, as you say, I would recommend Organized Editing policy compliance, as it would likely address both the issues I’ve noticed, as well as at least some of your internal challenges. Thanks for all your work, and looking forward to seeing more results of camp/site mapping in OSM. |

SOTM 2020 notes #2 | Thanks for the challenge! For your first point, you are probably looking for the diff setting. Using the same example. As for the difference between |

SOTM 2020 notes #2 | ABZ_OSM, if you want to trace a deleted issue, the easiest is probably to use http://overpass-turbo.eu/ to find the feature matching the tag you’re after (so I guess the tag of the chemical plant), and run the query to show the state of the planet at a specific point in time (so ideally right after you mapped it). It should then return a node/way ID that you can use to audit its history, even though it does not appear in the live OSM database anymore. For example, consider this query showing a refugee camp and compare to this one, which shows what the OSM looked like 2 minutes before. I accidentally created a duplicate that I removed later, but the second query shows both points. You can click the node, and then in the popup click the node ID (so in this case 7676579280) and then select “view history” to see what has happened to this feature in the past even though it is now deleted. Hope this helps |

SOTM 2020 notes #2 | Hi ABZ_OSM, I think there are a lot of issues to unpack in here - the OSM community who want to see the data fit into their (possibly subjective) interpretation of what the rules and standards are, the local community living next to a strategically or nationally sensitive facility, the international aid community using OSM as their data platform… all of these are complex in itself. As for the example you mention - it could be the locals who deleted the plant, or it could be anyone else in the country - or outside of it - that knew of its sensitive status and just checks in every now and then if it didn’t get mapped by someone. In some countries mapping military installations at all is completely prohibited, in others even using a map that has military installations on it is illegal. I’m not sure if there is a specific question in your message that you’d like me to answer? |

Add this location in the map | Hello Talib, Thanks for your edits. Can I offer a couple of comments on how it might be possible to improve the data quality a little?
Hope this helps |
