I don’t know whether the base station data is available for the public for free.

When I was in surveying, the official JUPEM gps/surveyed data and whatnot requires a subscription - $1k/year if I am not mistaken. A private correction signal (sms/gprs) based is also available presumably to customers that bought South gps survey sets although we saw a tiny difference in recorded values compared to JUPEM’s.

The problem is (if I understand the recent issue correctly) that osmose is giving warning about low poly rivers, hence any new-ish mappers might start smoothing out bends and stuff..

I would just map 3 leisure pitches = tennis and be done with that. I like simple stuff :)

I think Gopro uses a twin lens solution compared to multiple camera setup of the streetview car. A single lens covering 180deg will always have problems with distortion/blurriness on the edges with current technology.

Let’s hope that nobody turn into Reddit mods.

Well, that’s what my initial thoughts are. Except, all these ‘corrections’ are done by corporate mapper beyond the Pacific ocean. I wish I could be arsed to track down and check all the little funny edits that they make.

Sorry if it was unclear. The first venture was just plain gpx data.

After that at a different location, I averaged a point for 5++ minutes and collected GNSS data using android’s gnss tools, then trying to ‘post process’ the gnss.log file using the open source GNSS analysis software. Failed to install this software despite repeated tries and various solutions available online, so currently I am giving it a rest.

That’s a common fact (educated observation) of mapping in these regions - using data from Google. A lot more probably comes from Streetview. Partly due to ignorance of copyright laws, and partly due to #dontgiveashit mentality. The clever ones put source = local knowledge, and then who are you to judge where they get their info from?

A conundrum for DWG for sure. My suggestion is just let things be unless they are so obviously copied from Google. If for some unforeseen reason that ABC called for a strikedown on those edits, then purge and redo.

Just ban this user for shits and giggles..

Before the lane tagging movements starts to get hold in my country, I (and most other locals) used to draw the junction where the exit lanes start. Same thought, better to start early than late.

M.D?
It’s never lupus.

Resistance is futile.. -Borg-

maybe part of their performance index evaluation. more nodes = moarr money. Hence the seemingly inability of paid xxxx mappers to draw a straight line with just 2 nodes.

Maybe. ;)

You should go back and follow the sequence and re-correct it. All the correct segment is still there. When doing bus routes it (almost) always happen like that when a split way and non-split meets, and you use the sort function iirc.

just additional info, there’s a menu item in one of the JOSM’s plugin (can’t remember which) that allows you to de-select all the nodes in whatever you selected.

BTW, thank you for the great article. Definitely saving it for future reference.

I just want trees to be rendered individually! Jillions upon jillions of them.

Tree mappers… those are a special kind of breed. Something they won’t be able to finish before the end of time.

Some people just tag landuse residential just so that it is rendered as the size/outline of the town/city at lower zoom level.

DWG/OSMF under the law of some ambiguous criminal code of Ukraine?

Ohio, you be you!

Kidding aside, I personally believe that municipality should be excluded from administrative boundary hierachy. Map the boundary as something else. Country>state>district>sub-district(sometimes)>place(neighborhood/town/etc). At least we know the top 3 or 4 levels would never cross each other. Address and land titles follow this format anyways. IMHO of course.
