Some issues from Osmose are useless without a link #7898

An issue in Osmose: "Unmapped phone booth" Mapillary Osmose

I have a link to Mapillary to check if it's really a phone booth: https://www.mapillary.com/app/?focus=photo&pKey=N5KH_iUOuTUNi5Vh-UGY0g&signs=true&points=true It wasn't a phone booth.

But in iD I don't have this link to Mapillary so this issue is useless in iD. Mapillary iD

@maro-21 I wouldn't say these are totally useless without the link. You could open the Mapillary layer yourself or the feature might be visible in the aerial imagery.

But I'm wondering if we should even show these types of Osmose issues since iD has a separate detected Mapillary features layer. Does Osmose pull from other sources or is it redundant with Mapillary?

@SilentSpike Any thoughts?

You could open the Mapillary

In iD there is no link to Mapillary such as in Osmose. There are a lot of objects on the mapillary layer, a user doesn't know which is which.

the feature might be visible in the aerial imagery

They're not, because these issues are called "Mapillary street objects". So objects such as road signs aren't visible in the aerial imagery.

These lines Mapillary Osmose from Osmose are very important here. If someone wants to add this object, it would be good to mark the source like here. So it's better to solve such issue on Osmose.

Does Osmose pull from other sources or is it redundant with Mapillary?

Osmose pull it from Mapillary but also checks if there is missing feature in OSM database.

@quincylvania Wouldn't be the end of the world not to show these, but they are handy since Osmose is checking for nearby appropriately tagged entities in OSM.
