Hi cleary, I noticed what appears to be an access gate but tagging is unclear.

22025-02-17 05:46cleary That was a careless error by me. I have now corrected it to barrier=cattle_grid. I do not recall any gates on that road and, looking at satellite imagery, it appears to be a cattle grid. Further, my abbreviation for cattle_grid was "ca" and I appear to have transposed the letters when I w...

A google search has
Tooleybuc for Queensland
and
Toolebuc for NSW... sigh. Translations from Aborigine I assume.

22023-03-15 06:31cleary If you look closely at the NSW Base Map, I think it shows that the track is just beyond the boundary of the Conservation Area and is therefore on private land and probably a private road.

22023-03-08 05:38cleary Hello Warin

Hi Warin

I don't think that the name necessarily limits how a waterway is mapped. Cooper Creek (aka Coopers Creek) near Windorah and King Creek near Bedourie in Queensland are better-known examples - definitely rivers despite their names.

42021-02-26 04:59TheSwavu
♦544
They can be vague about it as it's effect is to limit how much water they can get down the Murray below the Edward. So it's a bit moot about whether the choke is 1 m or 80 km long, it has the same effect on river operations.
52021-02-26 09:02cleary Thanks to both TheSwavu and TreeTracks for your comments.

Hiya I can do it on Sun / Mon. I’ll move it to Bullatale to Barmah as TheSwavu suggested. A relation is better than a point as it does refer to a stretch of the river. The Cadell Fault runs N-S along the W edge of the Millewa forest. If you visit Mathoura you can walk/drive down the old fault ...

Do you happen to remember details about this changeset? You mapped several barrier=gate objects like this: https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/4537155778

22018-01-19 07:37cleary There was definitely a gate when I went through there in approx December 2016. There were also quite a few gates on Joulnie Road and Sanpah Road and the northern section of Border Downs Road. It is not unusual to have gates on public roads in remote areas.

I remember driving on Waterbag Road and I recall that the track to Cymbric Vale was just a track, didn't look anything like Waterbag Road (which I think was graded and reasonable gravel suface,) and there was no sign to indicate public access was permitted to Cymbric Vale.

Hi,
By making a new node and moving the boundary by 0.2 m the OSM inspector error is removed .. very little effect in the real world. It dose create a 'gap' of 0.2 metres. .. cheating I know.

That may all be true, but this area is not administrated under the Local Government Act so therefore it's not a council and not admin_level 6.

Given the admin levels are "proposed" in the wiki (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dadministrative) what level do you suggest TheSwavu? From my understanding of Australia level 6 is the most appropriate.

No level as it not a thing that you need to map. The unincorporated areas of South Australia are the bits inside the admin_level 4 boundary but not inside an admin_level 6 boundary.

Hi cleary,
looks like your coastline is not finished: http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/5213733 is separated from http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/5213756. Was it intended?

Maybe "is_in:national park" can be changed to "is_in:national_park"?
