Moody Ales is closing December 14th. Change to a vacant shop after that date, making sure to retain the address. https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1465510712245811&id=100063606878493#

Unable to answer "What’s the surface here?" – Foot Path – https://osm.org/way/727956552 via StreetComplete 61.1: The surface is hard plastic. Underneath is beach sand. A wheel chair could roll on this hard plastic.

Thanks! I added it as a grass paver surface tag with plastic as the material. This follows what others in the OSM community have done with beach access mats. https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/how-to-tag-a-beach-access-mat/117536/6

There are a LOT of houses in Vancouver whose street addresses are missing on OpenStreetMap. If any Vancouver-based mappers are able to, I would like them to walk around these neighbourhoods and record the addresses of as many houses as they can.

Forgive me if this has already been considered, I'm new to editing, but why not reference the municipal land parcel map (VanMap)? It's all publicly available. https://maps.vancouver.ca/patio_permits/

you can import the data from https://opendata.vancouver.ca/explore/dataset/property-addresses/information/ Maybe ask keithonearth_imports who added the buildings

Has the "Open Government Licence - Vancouver" been properly vetted for compatibility with OSM?
5~ 11 months agocommentedfmarier
♦1,205
See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:AdamWill/Imports/Vancouver_property_addresses for the legal implications. It sounds like it would be okay, but it's probably best to check with AdamWill and PNorman.

Also, huge +1 on this kind of import. I did downtown + West End manually a few years ago and it took a loooong time.

Well, incidentally, I surveyed all of Qualicum Beach's street addresses in person last year. It took me nine weekends to cover the whole town.

Whether or not we do an import, I think it's important to be aware that the Vancouver address dataset from the CoV is not 100% accurate. There seems to be two issues with it, both of which stem from the fact that it is a map of the addresses of land parcels, not a map of all addresses. So when a single building takes up more than one parcel it has two nodes usually/always with the same address. More importantly when a land parcel has more than one address, only one is in the dataset. I've just been viewing the dataset in JOSM, looking at areas I manually added addresses to, and cannot find a single example of a building with more than one address in reality that has more than one in the dataset. When I did the building trace import, I checked on both the Wiki and the mailing list, and the only comments I got were in support of the licences being compatible, as long as the source was noted. If we do an import of addresses, I think it's important to include a fixme tag, or something else to track that the address has been imported w/o checking in person, so we can check for buildings with more than one address. The import itself wouldn't be particularly skilled, at least the way I'd do it. Open the CoV data in a separate layer in Josm, and copy and paste into the OSM layer, building by building. It would also take some pre-proccessing, so that the tags would match OSM standards, like changing streetname tags to not be in ALLCAPS.

And this is why on-the-ground surveys would be preferred here.
10~ 4 months agocommentedkeithonearth
♦1,768
Certainly, on the ground surveys produce the best results, the trade off is the amount of time they take. Vancouver is far behind other cities, for address data.

I think doing an import of non-existing addresses is the way to go.

I imported the addresses. All have the same fixme and source:addr tags, so should be easily searchable.

Two nodes are defined as entrance, but it is actually a regular foot path that passes under the arch of the building. via StreetComplete 61.1 Attached photo(s): https://streetcomplete.app/p/282605.jpg https://streetcomplete.app/p/282606.jpg
2~ 11 months agoclosedfmarier
♦1,205
This is probably not the best way to do this since the arch is actually quite high and there's not that many floors in that part of the building, but at least it's clear that footpath doesn't go inside. https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/167332785

Unable to answer "What are the opening hours here?" – Alter Ego Barbershop (Barber) – https://osm.org/node/12738934100 via StreetComplete 61.1: There is no indication that this place exists, even after looking inside the complex building Attached photo(s): https://streetcomplete.app/p/282081.jpg

Thanks for the like, I stopped at the entrance of the citizen salon. I was as deep as possible in the building, but since there were no indications of any sort, I ended up turning back. Is it relevant to map this address? since it is buried in the bottom of a building in the middle of dozens of companies that are not mapping either (because inside the building)

You're right, it's probably not super useful given how hard it is to find, but I guess if it does actually exist, maybe we shouldn't remove? It's not actually wrong (or a spam entry like the online businesses that just randomly put pins downtown) if it's still open to the public.
6~ 11 months agocommentedNivalys

I'll take a look next time, maybe I'll try to map the inside of the building. Do you know a tool for the insides? I think I have seen one, but I don't remember the name.
7~ 11 months agocommentedfmarier

No, I don't know of a tool for inside of buildings unfortunately.

Add a small park with children's games (slide) and 3 pairs of benches. Access to this park may be restricted, but access by the small roundabout is permitted. via StreetComplete 61.1 Attached photo(s): https://streetcomplete.app/p/282263.jpg https://streetcomplete.app/p/282264.jpg https://streetcomplete.app/p/282265.jpg https://streetcomplete.app/p/282266.jpg

Are you sure access to the footpath is permitted? Looking at Google Street View, I see a sign that says "Private Property No Trespassing"
