Task Description This task outlines work to improve the map data in Europe. We plan to focus on improvements to the road network. We'll be reviewing and mapping highway=*. We will message the local community and get feedback and suggestions for this project.
Improvements that will be addressed include the following:
Correcting road connectivity and alignment issues and adding missing roads Improving road classification consistency according to local and OSM guidelines Area of Focus is: Africa( Ghana, Tanzania, Tunisië, South Africa, Kenya, Nigeria, Uganda), Europe (United Kingdom, Sweden, France, Portugal, Poland, Austria, Czech Republic, Croatia, Malta, Hungary, Netherlands, Ireland, Norway, Germany, Spain, Belgium, Romania, Ukraine, Estonia, Lithuania, Slovakia, Latvia), Asia (Thailand, Sri Lanka), Latin America (Paraguay, Ecuador, Mexico), Middle East (Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Azerbaijan, Lebanon, Georgia)
Mapping Guidelines The team will follow OSM and local policy, along with any other guidelines as appropriate.
The team will use imagery and data sources below as needed. When in doubt, the team will use the existing tags and data which are used locally. The history in JOSM (ctrl-H) identifies what previous mappers added and their notes and/or explanations regarding changes made. This history can also show if a previous mapper has visited that area or has expert knowledge or sources. Our team uses the hashtag #bolt for our edits.
Tools The team will use JOSM for completing the task. JOSM has validation warnings for road networks and other possible issues that are important to prevent improper changes.
Sources DigitalGlobe/Maxar Standard/Premium Bing imagery Mapbox imagery ESRI imagery Mapillary OpenStreetCam Strava and OSM GPS traces "Orthophoto" and "Digital terrain model" layers The team will apply image offsets as needed.
Changeset Comments The team will provide changeset comments that are in compliance with OSM changeset guidelines.
