Welcome to OSM and thanks for adding the dispensary.

I do have some comments - you should add it with tag shop=cannabis so that people can search for any cannabis shop regardless of its name (so shops named like "star buds" will show up even if they're just searching for THC.) Since you're using iD, you can actually search through the object type for "cannabis" and it will pop up as an option. You can just make another edit to change this!

Again thanks for your contribution!

I think it's https://www.facebook.com/p/Edgewater-Country-Club-100040275137233/ and should be a 9-hole course. Appears to be (seasonally?) closed now?

Incidentally it looks like the land to the north of the western piece appears to also be a golf course, and the current area looks kinda small (though I didn't count out 9 or 18 holes)... should this actually be bigger or is that an adjacent competing golf course?

i cleaned up tagging of the multipolygon. boundaries are used for political boundaries and usually extend very large areas, alas this is a mere golf course and there's standard tagging for golf courses.

Hi I know this is 5 years ago but wanted to mention that the snowmobile routes you added are not quite right and are not useful as-is. These snowmobile routes that appear to share roads used by cars and possibly pedestrian paths need to be added as roads or pedestrian paths, and then marked as snowmobile usable or added as a snowmobile route relation. Now I'm not entirely sure which of the ways you drew were existing road/hiking-pedestrian paths or dedicated to snowmobiles so I'd prefer not to touch them, but they need work as it is now.

Yeah this looks good, it's about as much as can be done if you don't have enough data to draw the complete circle. However one comment: the stop signs on california st are still there, are they yield or are they still stop?

Ah, so yes, if it's like that, it's a tiny but true "roundabout" - not a "mini-roundabout" since it has something that prohibits driving over the center.

So...to answer your question about automatic drawing... Nope, nothing is automatically drawn, heh. So to properly do this you could draw a little circle for the roundabout (you can use the "circle" tool to make a really rough circle, i.e. a triangle or a square even, and turn it into a circle) and draw the roads to it. Or I think in this case you can just leave it as a crossing intersection and tag the cross intersection with junction=roundabout and direction=counterclockwise much like that second example photo in the wiki with the black corrugated pillar with arrows on it. Hope this is clear enough?

Oooh, that also annoys me that city planners do something like that. Yeah technically that should also be marked as a "roundabout" though it's too small to actually take advantage of the key aspect of the structure: you have right of way when you're in in the structure and all people entering it must yield. I think the other thing is that if you needed to take a left turn in the new intersection, do you turn right?

If these two aspects are not met then it probably shouldn't be tagged as a roundabout especially if the latter isn't met and perhaps traffic calming island is a better choice. Are there photographs of the intersection anywhere?

Hello, welcome to OSM! Just wanted to let you know that someone spotted an accidental mistake you did by dragging a node making a road real crooked. osm.org/note/4486424 - I ended up fixing them so it should look okay now. Just a reminder to carefully check your clicks and drags before uploading your changes!

I just spotted another error: the Kum & Go at osm.org/way/688751094 - This is a "roof" building at layer 1, and if you merge the gas station to the roof, the gas station is at layer 1...which is nonsensical as it's at layer 0(or no layer tag). So this is another example not to merge the two. I changed it back while changing it to a Maverik as the station has rebranded -- as witnessed in a drive by. Actually it's been a Maverik for a few months, I don't know why I haven't noted and changed it...

Do NOT delete roads that can be seen on satellite imagery. This is a warning.

158024621 8 months ago

I don't agree with occupant vs building. There are special cases where the building may be historic and actually has a name -- but the shop is different than the historic name of the building -- and this would make it very difficult to map both without my method of building not merged with shop.

Just a comment about "both" -- meaning both a node and an area -- the intent was having the area marked as a shop and have the poi marked as a shop -- this is double tagging and is very frowned upon. However if the building is a building and the shop is a node, this is no longer "both" and it also opens the possibility for multiple shops in the building.

Yes the apartment complex + shops at level 1 is actually very common and becoming more common in high pop areas. I tag the building as apartments and put however many POI shops on the building. This should be fine too.

158024621 8 months ago

And of course, sharing is the third category...but that's kind of a given...

158024621 8 months ago

IMHO merging POIs with their buildings should not be done if you're not sure they also own the building. If they're renting or don't know I'd leave it as POI.

This doesn't do anything with restrictions. I'd either revert as there's no need for this, else you would have to break up the road to dual carriageway (and remove the turn restrictions as they would be implicit with the split.)

Fixes needed.

Beat me to it, thanks for understanding!

Oh I see now. Yes Tiger has a numerical ordinal versus spelled out. Alas we try to match what's on the street so we should keep "Ninth" as that's what the street signs say in Streetside photos.

Tiger has been known to be wrong (though in this case it's symbolically correct.)

I'm going to change it back.

157334678 9 months ago

Hi, is there a reason why you changed "Nineth" to "9th" without changing it for the whole length of the street? Was there a sign on the street indicating as such? osm.org/note/4461310 alerted this as a possible mistake.

... and hit submit before finishing the changeset comment. but anyway also changed a few service roads to driveways for indivduals, marked some roads as unpaved where visible in sat imagery, and straightened a few roads
