This is a real trail accessible to the public. I have personally used this trail. I know from on the ground knowledge this trail is not as well maintained as nearby trails due to lack of use. It is not well known or popular, but it is there.
22025-03-27 15:24tekim Super strange that there is no Strava heat even though all of the nearby trails do have heat. Ok, so the trail exists, but without heat, or it being visible in imagery we can't be sure this location is accurate. We can't rely on the data from your agency as it has been shown to have many...

I understand you have a lack of trust in our data, but we assure you we will not be adding trails that do not exist as that goes against our entire mission. We have been made aware of these errors and as discussed previously to a great extent, much of these data are older tracks that need updating a...

I don't know if you just don't live here or if you've never actually walked the trail, but there are sure as hell beaches. And lose gravel and sand. How about your fat ass gets out and walks around. Or get your eyes checked, you can even see it in the satellite view. Clown.

I think you revertet the wrong cs. I changed the cs, which you would have reverted, with name and outline of road. So you reverted my cs!
This revert of yours has been reverted by me now.
I have stated in my comment of cs that cs has been made with info from NVDB, which is open data! So after my...
22024-05-06 19:49tekim Thanks for your response. I can understand how having your changeset reverted is upsetting. However, I checked and I did revert the correct changeset, one that cited "Google Maps" as its source. This isn't about "copyright" but rather contract law. When you accessed Goog...

Well, I have been around on osm for a while, so don't expect me to cite Google as source.
You got it wrong again I am afraid. The order in time was this:

1. The first cs which cites Google was this one: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/150963789
Made by a newbie. I think this is t...
42024-05-06 21:44tekim Ok, something strange happened. What might have happened is that I reverted the newbie changeset, but you had edited the same feature between the time when they edited it and I reverted, so the revert wiped out both their change and yours? Anyway, I apologize if that is what happened. I thought t...

42024-04-24 18:09tekim Sorry about that, I had assumed that the message on the actual changeset would be visible first. I did see that there is another changeset that cites Google Maps as a source, which will have to be deleted too - sorry.

I did not take the information from Google. I guess my reference to Google was misleading. That was just supposed to point out that Google had this street named and that Google matched my local knowledge. So what do I need to do? Resubmit the change without any mention of Google?
22024-04-06 16:50tekim Hello again, Thanks for your reply. The Google Maps terms of use don't just talk about copying (i.e. "taking"), but more broadly "using." Therefore, *using* Google Maps to confirm/verify/validate another source, such as seems to be the case here, is also prohibited. It c...

52024-03-31 20:35tekim The issue isn't whether this edit reflects reality or not, nor whether you can find a source with an OSM-compatible license that supports the edit, but rather whether or not this edit violated the Google Maps terms of use by using it to improve OSM.

Ok. Thank you for letting me know and it makes sense. I only used Google maps for a small portion, the rest I gathered while running the area from within a couple miles of my house. Is there a time amount I need to wait to resubmit the rest in a new batch? I use Wandrer.earth which uses the data for...
22024-03-26 19:59tekim Thanks for the reply. You are free to edit OSM at any time as long as you are only using acceptable sources, which includes your own first hand observation.

Is there a need to retain buildings that were destroyed in the flood, and then rebuilt with a completely new one? Perhaps at best the history should be kept with the new building but it seems best to let go of the past and just leave it in the logs?
22021-07-09 13:53tekim Sorry for not contacting you first (or at least earlier). Normally I would agree with you, no reason to have buildings that are long gone. Unfortunately some of the imagery sources available in OSM still show these buildings (Esri World Premium Imagery (Clarity) Beta still shows the building in que...

Yeah I got tricked by old imagery before, but now at least I try to see if things exist anymore. How often are incorrect buildings added here?

I figured that since there was a larger building was built on top of the old one it was sufficient to delete the small one, and people would generally as...

It is great that you have access to a professional grade GPS, and made the effort to apply a differential correction. If you cite this in your change set comments and source, other mappers will be less likely to reposition the feature in question using a less accurate source. I have had...

Thanks for updating the Forks Park boundaries. However, didn't they buy that little "notch" that is along Big Thompson Canyon and make it part of the park?

22020-06-26 13:10tekim Yes, I was conflicted about that. Larimer County does own that parcel, but it still has a house on it, so is it currently part of the park or not? As a park user I probably would not be welcome to wander around that house. I could go either way though.
32020-06-26 16:00phidauex
♦194
If you were just there and the house is still present, then you are probably right that it isn't part of the park (yet).

The current modeling of the Great Lakes is actually to use natural=coastline.

The addition of natural=water to the lake superior relation is probably what caused the bad rendering at z13.

If you check the history of the relation, you can see people repeatedly adding and removing natural=water.
