12024-10-14 03:29Carnildo Is there a reason why you re-tagged way 499601425 as a "closed:highway=path"? The upper end certainly looked open this afternoon, with no sign of being brushed out at either the summit or the intersection with Antoine Summit Alternate.

Additionally, the Strava Heatmap suggests it'...

The reasons for my change were that the path was mapped in the conservation area's public access plan as a trail to be closed and that the path has not been mapped as an existing trail or unmanaged route in official documents since as late as Feb 2020. The path was brushed out at one point, but...
32024-10-16 03:13Carnildo Since it's highly visible and heavily used, it should be mapped as a path in accordance with the "on the ground" rule.

Since it's not an official trail, tagging it as informal is appropriate; if there's some sort of "do not use" sign at the lower end, setting it...

Yeah, unfortunately for the trail plan, there is no signage there saying not to use it, so I don't blame people for using it.

In any case, sounds good. I fixed it and added an informal trail that I have been meaning to map.

Hey, thank you! Can you let me know what was wrong? I've been trying to find it every day since I first made the changes that I did to start realigning Colville NF.

I should add that I was in the middle of trying to find the problem again just now and noticed in the middle of it that the forest boundaries started rendering again

So upon checking out the changes you made, it looks like I had the wrong relation for one of the small inholdings. Not sure how I missed that over and over!

1. Way https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1304671097 met https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1304719438 one node away from the end. This is the mistake that broke rendering on the OSM website.

12024-07-13 04:54Carnildo I'm not sure if that one's still there. Two years ago, I couldn't find the upper end, but I was pretty tired and low on water, and wasn't looking too hard. It was certainly there eight years ago when I first added it to the map.

I'm in the process of updating roads in Lincoln County. The County calls the road State Route 2 except when inside of a city. I'm curious where the name "Sunset Highway" came from?
32024-03-25 19:04Carnildo My best guess is the name came from a historical map. Back before the era of numbered state and US routes, long-distance routes were named. "Sunset Highway" was the primary Spokane-to-Seattle route.

Hello. ZIP codes/postal cities almost never reflect the actual boundaries of the city. They should not replace the actual city limits that were present within OSM previously.

Thanks for letting me know. I reverted the changes. Apologies for my mistake.

Going forward, how should the parts that are not recognized by the 'city limits' but are reflected with a mailing address in the city be updated?
42024-03-19 03:57Carnildo There's no really good way of doing this. The most common is to use the postal city in the "city name" field when adding addresses.

Maybe it can be tagged industrial, just the land is zoned commercial and they do sales, I'm assuming people can walk into their office to do a sale. Maybe "corporate office" would be more appropriate
32022-11-02 00:41Carnildo You can't judge landuse from zoning: it's zoned "GC-150", which permits manufacturing facilities up to 50,000 square feet. (Of Spokane's zone classes, "GC" is the most permissive: it permits almost any residential, commercial, or industrial use.)

Hi there was a warning by JOSM, a combination of toursim with road is not allowed.
32021-01-20 19:19Carnildo Sometimes you need to ignore the warnings and map what's actually there. The world is more complicated than JOSM's validator code realizes.

ID also shows the same warning.
52021-01-21 18:32Carnildo That's because neither the developer of iD nor the developer of JOSM expected the mayor of Wallace to proclaim the intersection of Bank and Sixth to be the Center of the Universe, and have a custom manhole cover made to mark the spot.

Wells Road was pretty much the last road I upgraded to secondary, as the route from Cheney to Malden. I wouldn't object if someone else changed it back to secondary.

Sunset Highway, I'm more inclined to say my change was justified. Definitely secondary, but I can't see how it would...
32020-12-18 18:38Carnildo Sunset isn't faster, but it's safer: the freeway on-ramps in downtown Spokane are uphill climbs with very short merges. Since it's only a minute or two longer, this draws off a lot of traffic that would otherwise take westbound I-90.
42020-12-19 16:41Oregonian3
♦47
Ah, that is a fair point. Perhaps it would make sense to upgrade the westbound lanes to primary while keeping the eastbound lanes at secondary then between Maple/Walnut and US 2 (since the road has split carriageways for part of it)?

@ 2020-12-18 00:10
12020-12-18 08:08Carnildo I strongly disagree with calling Trent Avenue "tertiary". Apart from being a state highway (and thus, secondary at a minimum), it carries on the order of 7,000 vehicles a day, making it a major part of the road network.
22020-12-18 13:45Oregonian3
♦47
Thanks for the comment. 7000 is SIGNIFICANTLY lower than all of the other primary and most of the secondary roads in the area. I think primary was major overclassification, wouldn't object if you were to re-upgrade it to secondary.

I’m new to this mapping stuff…I’m told that the bridges are better when inserted within the TGC 2019 software. I’m still trying to make that determination.
32020-12-18 05:06Carnildo Keep in mind that TGC 2019 is far from the only program using OpenStreetMap data. For example, if you don't map bridges, they won't show up if the golf course uses Mapbox to put a map of the course on their website.

12020-12-04 06:07Carnildo Welcome to OSM!

Please don't attach land areas to roads. It makes it tricky to edit the road if it needs to be split (eg. to add a school zone speed limit), and if someone ever comes up with a good way to map roads as areas, it doesn't leave anywhere for the road surface to be drawn.

Wouldn't it be better to give the roads sidewalk tags as opposed to mapping dead-end sidewalks. If the sidewalks are mapped separately, there would be issues getting pedestrian directions using OpenStreetMap.
32019-08-16 06:41Carnildo Mapping sidewalks separately is the more detailed option -- it lets you map things like curb/ramp types, "do not cross" signs, and other things that don't fit onto a road's sidewalk tags.
