Hi.

Is this real? way/1458589932

It looks mostly just like a field, with mowed grass. I am not sure it warrants mapping as a runway, even if private individuals were to occasionally use it for that. Especially considering the rendering is very intrusive.

The only reference I see online is from a flight simulator, with "fictional" in the title. https://flightsim.to/file/46769/egur-boars-hill-private-airstrip-oxford-fictional

There's now a duplicate 42. Is the end-of-terrace 43?

Hi.

Previously, the "Friends of South Park" group asked for these informal desire paths in the middle of the park not to be mapped, to encourage more routes and avoid persistent damage to the grass.

Although it would be legitimate to map them, I think we can honour that request, since they are very informal anyway. I will update them, leaving a note for future mappers who might see the aerial image and add them again.

Thanks.

Hi. Thanks for your contribution to the map.

The house number is already tagged in "addr:housenumber". It is unnecessary (and it would wrong) to add it to "name".

It would also help if the changeset comments were more descriptive of what you are uploading. See: osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

Thank you, and happy mapping!

For more details on the congestion charge: https://www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/transport-and-travel/oxfords-temporary-congestion-charge-cars

For general context on this type of measure, justifying tagging as toll (which is the common approach in other cities): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congestion_pricing#Roads ; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_toll_collection#Use_in_urban_areas_and_for_congestion_pricing

For the forum discussion: https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/oxford-congestion-charge-tagging-scheme/137466

If you wanted to map further details on the locations, an `enforcement` relation could be created (`enforcement=toll`): osm.wiki/Relation:enforcement

Thanks. Mostly from a quick glance! I need to take a few pictures of the remaining areas.

Hi.

The café is already mapped here: node/13028550205

If the new location is the correct one, the old node can be moved. Otherwise, this duplicate should be deleted.

Thanks.

Every college will have bars and canteens, same for schools, hospitals, factories and other workplaces. Personally, I don't think they should be mapped. They are internal parts to the broader element which is already mapped, and they have no public use. I think it adds confusion for map users, more than clarity. Not everything with FHRS needs to be represented on OSM.

I think they should be tagged as removed:* and disused:*.
Bus stops are quite prominent in the rendered map, so keeping them as normal seems a bit misleading, if they are gone.

I have always seen it referred to with the article.

As for capitalisation, I capitalised the first word taking the two as a unit "The airline", but now I also see that sometimes they write "The Airline" on some of their pages and social media, so I'd be fine with that.

Certainly, thank you. I have opened this note note/4839913 to list a few others that I saw that need updating.

168526701 6 months ago

Yes, please do add everything else you feel is needed. I am not entirely familiar with all bus route tags. Thanks.

The two have completely different meanings (as the wiki page shows). Here, a permit is required at those times (which means that access is *not* permissive).

168442705 6 months ago

Hi, thanks for the space correction, however permit was correct, not permissive.

167839215 6 months ago

For the other cases, it makes sense, since there are probably other things on upper floors of the same building.

Hello.

I think the Covered Market units should not be tagged as buildings, and there is no reason to map the shops as a separate nodes, when the current polygons already provide more information and more accurate mapping.

167746211 6 months ago

Hello. Are there any restaurant premises at this address? If not, I think it should be tagged as craft=caterer, not amenity=restaurant.

craft=caterer

Thanks.

Same comment here as here: changeset/167373137#map=18/51.753797/-1.260346&layers=N

I can revert those deletions, if you want. Can you confirm whether those places are all vacant? Or have they been replaced?

Thank you.

167373137 6 months ago

Hello.
Please do not delete nodes, if the physical place is still there. If the shop or restaurant is gone, it can be tagged as vacant or disused (see the wiki). That makes updating much easier and preserves the history.

If both are still present, then we need two separate nodes.
