5 years ago Hey,
I just came across this OSM Note [1] that indicates that you guys might use Google Street View in addition to the data sources that you list on this page. Hopefully this is not the case but I wanted to double check. Can you please confirm that everyone on this team knows that the Google Street View is not compatible with OSM's ODbL license?
Cheers, Levente

Task Description
This task includes identifying and updating missing turn restrictions in Boston. Improvements to the existing road network will include:
Sources
The team will be using signals based on Microsoft Streetide imagery that was processed by Mapbox to identify street signs indicating a possible turn restriction. (more info here: mapbox/mapping#349)
The raw geojson of the street sign extractions are available on the Microsoft Open Maps github repo here
The team will also use all available imagery sources including Mapillary, OpenStreetCam and satellite to help to confirm directionality or turn restriction. In cases where the turn restriction cannot accurately be determined we will include a map note.
Area of Focus
We are going to focus our efforts on the following cities in the US:
Atlanta, Boston, Detroit, Denver, Chicago, Washington DC, Orlando, Miami, Phoenix, Portland OR, Philadelphia, Providence RI, New York City, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Francisco, Seattle, San Diego
Tools
We will be using JOSM to do the adding and editing of roads. We will use our editing->validation->publication workflow to help ensure accuracy with two set of eyes on every edit.

Changeset Comments
The team will be adding changeset comments that follow OSM changeset guidelines.
Error Detection
We will use the validator in the JOSM tool to look for errors.
