Road Editing in Suriname #56

Open LeeKana opened 4 years ago

LeeKana commented 4 years ago

Task description:

This task is looking to improve the map data in Suriname. We will also use all available aerial and street level imagery assets available in OSM. We intend to edit the roads, looking to focus the following:

Alignment, missing roads, missing road names, surface tags, and road classification.

We will also add or improve road relations, such as turn restrictions or destination signs.

Additionally, we may edit some other map features such as water bodies, natural features, landuse features, and buildings.

We will be processing this according to OSM and adhering to the Organized editing guidelines.

Mapping Guidelines:

We will be adding/updating (when possible) road geometry, names, directionality, road classification, restrictions, destinations, and surface type (we will only be adding paved or unpaved). The team will follow OSM guidelines for adding and tagging each.

Area of Focus:

This will be a country wide effort across Suriname.

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, following the wiki as well as the LearnOSM guidelines.

Additional Info:

For any questions, comments, concerns, feel free to email the team at openmaps(at)Microsoft.com.
