Is the aerodome completely closed? According to en:wikipedia, Avinor closed it to commercial aviation, but recreational use remains possible. Local confirmation welcome!
2 ~ 9 months agoGazer75 Seems it is still in use. I didn't do my research properly. Apparently even the airforce is using it for practice still. I'll add back the aerodrome tag, but leave it off for the old terminal building as there is no public service.

Hello,

I am looking at the following two ways:

https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1176299267

In this changeset, it looks like you added the tag `toll:backward=||designated`. What did you mean by this? I would have just changed it to `toll:lanes:backw...
2 ~ 1 year agoGazer75 Thanks for pointing this out, I've fixed the tags now. Not sure what happened here as its been years. Might have been some copy/paste mistake at one point. The toll point changed direction back in 2020 as well, so may have been something there.

Hi, these cables are marked as 33kV, but this article [1] states they are 66kV. Curious if you have a better source, or if they should be changed?
Cheers, Donald

2 ~ 1 year agoGazer75 Most articles quotes 33kV that I could find. Maybe that is just the internal cabling while the cables to the platforms are at 66kV.

Cheers, looked into this a bit more and perhaps they were planing 33kV, as this is on some pages as you say, but changed to 66kV during hte design phase. The Equinor page also states 66kV, so I've updated it.
https://www.equinor.com/energy/hywind-tampen
4 ~ 1 year agoGazer75 It is most likely 33k internally and then transformed to 66kV for the cables to the platforms. No wind farm I know use more than 33kV from each turbine due to size of equipment. The generators are often 690V and then a transformer at the base ups this to 33kV.

The Guide to a Floating Offshore Wind Farm states "Array cables are typically rated at 66 kV. In the next few years, array cable voltages are expected to increase to 132 kV."

https://guidetofloatingoffshorewind.com/guide/b-balance-of-plant/b-1-cables/b-1-1-array-cable/
6 ~ 1 year agoGazer75 Cable rating and actual operating voltage is not the same. I believe they landed on 33kV to avoid having to do heavy modifications on the platforms. Space is already limited for power handling. It seems they landed on JDR Cable Systems to provide these 66kV cables. They are designed to break if ther...

What is the thinking behind this reversion?

The reason I modified this junction in the first place was because JOSM complained about power line noes that weren't towers. I agree with JOSM: I don't see it as likely that these power lines are connected in mid air, as opposed to a connect...
2 ~ 4 years agoGazer75 Lines can have a mid air tap where one crosses over the other. there is no connection like you did. Problem is it is impossible to know for the validator if there should be a tower at a node or not, so you can't remove it.
3 ~ 4 years agoGazer75 Hard to find visual examples of this, but here is one close to a streetview: https://goo.gl/maps/cXHLkhVzvFfwpy4V8
4 ~ 4 years agoGazer75 Mid air taps are quite common in those types of junctions actually. The tower on the through line is an anchor termination tower with no connection of the line, so it has to go via the two branch ones to the nearby substation.
5 ~ 4 years agoGazer75 Was thinking I would start counting, but if I include 22kV distribution lines then there are probably thousands of taps around the country.
Some examples on openinframap:
4 taps on this one for the 132kV lines: https://openinframap.org/#17.9/59.276012/9.543613
3 taps here: https://openinframap.or...

I learnt something new today! Thank you for this thorough and high quality feedback.

To me, it seems like it would be natural to have a tag for this; something like `power=tap`. There is no similar tag, as far as I can see. Having one would at least help remove a false positive warning in this ca...
7 ~ 4 years agoGazer75 I fully agree we should have a tag for these to help with validation. I'm not that good with formulating things and don't have enough wiki knowledge to add a proposal.

It doesn't resolve the JOSM warnings, but at least it is a statement that the mapping is as intended, and perhaps the warnings will be resolved this way in future updates.
10 ~ 4 years agoGazer75 Nice find!

Could probably make a ticket for JOSM asking to add this to validator. It is very much needed.
Taginfo shows 2378 uses so far as well, so its not that rare.

The stretch of road (Borgavegen) between Hegglandsdalsvegen and Nordmarka is now wider after a road reconstruction that was completed in the winter of 2021. This part of Borgavegen has never been steep at all. Would this part have "tertiary standard" or must the whole road between Hjelle a...
2 ~ 4 years agoGazer75 Tertiary is not really set in stone for Norway so some put it on a lot of roads.
Use of tertiary might encourage more through traffic on roads depending on the router used for the app or website.
I believe some routers actually ignore tertiary due to the variation in use cases.

Borgavegen didn't get a separate foot- and cycleway.

If an area was tagged as power=generator this fix introduced new errors.

Hi,
what does the key "fee:duration" mean? This is not used in any other place.

Thanks
Jan
2 ~ 6 years agoGazer75 Tagging of toll points lack a lot of good documentation on wiki unfortunately. We had to basically pick something that works. Many toll projects have a one hour grace period. If you pass the same or other toll point in the same group you do not pay again.
3 ~ 6 years agoGazer75 The tag might be removed as the system is complicated in some areas like Oslo with two groups (inner and outer rings) and Trondheim with 7 toll groups.
4 ~ 6 years agomueschel
♦7,018
That's an interesting feature. I also don't see any established scheme to tag this. What confused me was the fact that "duration" is usually how long something takes, so it looked like a fee per hour to me.

Using Taginfo I generate a list of keys which newly appear in the database - in most cases it's reporting simple spelling mistakes.
