Looks great, thanks for mapping!

Thank you, that sounds good. Will do!

Hi, it looks like you are changing a lot of highway classifications in ways that don't fit the Highway Tag Africa guidelines. Can you explain why?

Hi, it looks like you are changing a lot of highway classifications in ways that don't fit the Highway Tag Africa guidelines. Can you explain why? For example, many of the roads in this changeset such as way/114132916#map=16/9.0321/7.4668 . It's resulting in inconsistent roads and many seem to be wrong.

Hi Sergey, thanks for the response, and that's great you are visiting these places. I think however Highway Tag Africa is usually referring to major towns and things, not the major road in an area. Here are a few examples. way/666544811 is tertiary, but tertiary is "Major transportation routes connecting towns and larger villages." In this case it only goes to a parking lot so maybe should be unclassified or even service. way/28157312 goes to a picnic site and way/26338796 goes to a watering hole, and both are tagged secondary, which is supposed to be "Major transportation routes connecting cities and large towns." I think again unclassified or service is more appropriate. And way/31256703 is a residential road that is tagged as secondary but should be residential, which is "In urban areas or rural villages, roads which serve as an access to housing, without function of connecting settlements. Often lined with housing." Let me know what you think.

Hi fred80gps, I see you created the way called No Man's Land, is that the official name of the border crossing? Or more of an informal name or description? Thanks! way/572862706

Buenas dias, parece que estás eliminando una gran cantidad de datos en este cambio y otros, ¿puedes explicar por qué? Gracias.

Ah great, thanks. Is that Sentinel imagery? Are there tiles for it?

Hi there. Do you have any suggestions about how to properly model intersections like these in Cairo? Mapillary street level imagery is showing that there is a barrier preventing traffic from moving in the roundabout junction here.

Hi there, I see that there’s some new highway geometry in this area. Do you know if the roads are actually open here, or should they be given a construction tag? Especially in this area: osm.org/#map=15/29.9727/31.6863
I couldn’t find any conclusive evidence from internet research. Thanks!

Hi sergeydolya, I noticed you were adding a lot of helpful information to roads in Namibia about overall condition. Some of the roads you updated were upgraded from unclassified or service to secondary and primary. Could you explain your reasoning for this? Generally those classifications are used for roads that function as more major routes in a country or routes that are leading from one destination to another. Some guidelines for highway classifications can be found at Highway Tag Africa.
Also, remember that you don't have to fill out every single tag. For example, you should only fill out things like horse= and bicycle= if it's the law that those things aren't allowed on that specific road.

Hi, thanks for mapping, it looks like you changed way way/655655573 to be very inaccurate, do you have a source for that?

Hi, is this data with source=smec from a company?

Hi, thanks for mapping! Please don't map large areas as one building - the building tag should just be one separate building. For example, way/573560285 , way/573263048 and way/573560308

Thanks, will do!
