11 months ago The 'Sources for editing' section updated with the below information-
- Removed Maxar Premium Imagery from the list as it's not available anymore in OSM
- Added a description of proprietary sources to support editing
Project description
Goal
To improve the map quality in Poland, we propose to make data improvements by sharing challenges, and when appropriate, fixing data errors, and adding or editing certain kinds of geometry. One method is through sharing MapRoulette challenges, but as well we can prepare notes, files or layers. We share source materials, and support other types of activities, including sponsorships, or supporting local chapters.
We will be sharing challenges to capture missing features and fix potential data errors. All challenges available for the Poland are listed here. We plan to restart some quality improvements projects, based on errors detected by TomTom quality system, mostly related to crossing & open polygons, sharp buildings or conflicts for them, roads or waters.
Over time, we will also be making one-off edits if we see that a specific feature or group of features is missing or incorrect. These edits will be incidental and may impact: land use, buildings, POI, addresses and tag consistency. Additionally, we conduct edits based on map feedback, which may be related to many features, but trigger comes from our partners feedback and we will check these reports before implementing same in OSM. We do not perform any update against OSM capturing rules, community guidelines or latest updates performed by them.
How to participate
Anyone is welcome to contribute to this project by participating in our MapRoulette challenges. Here is the extended documentation for using MR. Note that sometimes additional instructions are provided within the challenges.
Active Challenges
The data analysis done by TomTom suggests that there should be a way here, but it is missing. There are also roads geometry issues related to junctions, duplicated nodes and more, see challenge content.

- [Invalid Lane Tag](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/17997) The tag lanes=* on ways with tag highway=* indicates the amount of lanes on the road at hand. The value for the lanes tag should be only one of the following numbers: 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Any other value is incorrect and should be fixed. - [Not connected highway](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/17989) Ways with tag highway=* must be connected to the rest of the road network to ensure its continuity, e.g. for route planning. When such a way is not connected to another way with tag highway=*, an error is logged. - [Tag area=yes on object without feature type](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/17990) The area=yes tag is required for some closed ways when used to define a polygon. For closed ways with other tags, there is an assumption that the way defines an area. In some circumstances, a closed way may define both a closed polyline and an area. When tag area=yes is used, it is expected that one of the necessary accompanying tags is also found. - [Impossible angle in a highway](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/17993) In general, roads intended for vehicles should be built to maintain proper angles which ensure maneuvers and fluent traffic. Extreme, too sharp angles applied to a way may indicate errors in the road geometry. - [Invalid Turn Restriction](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/27622) This check identifies invalid turn restrictions. Invalid turn restrictions occur in a variety of ways, from invalid members to edge geometry issues to not being routable to wrong topology. Relations, ways and nodes in relations as well as turn restrictions are checked. A relation needs to have exactly one way with role 'from' and exactly one way with role 'to'. These ways should be linked together by at least one way with role 'via' OR with exactly one node with role 'via' (no more and no less). - [Polygon has self-intersection](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/17988) The necessary edits will be made to fix cases where the tag on a way indicates that the object is a polygon feature, but the way does not meet the definition of a closed way because it is self-intersecting, or ways in a relation with the same role form a self-intersecting polygon - [Spiky buildings](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/17994) Buildings with extremely sharp angles will be identified and corrected if needed. - [Polygon is not closed part 1](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/17987), [part 2](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/23209) Features intended to be a polygon should be correctly tagged. When the tag indicates that the object should be a polygon, but the geometry is built out of a NON-closed way, an error is logged. - [Route number discontinuity in REF*' tags category](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/16909) The purpose of this challenge is to fix the inconsistency between ways and relations with regards to the Route Number information system in Poland.Geometry challenges

We make improvements to OSM based on user feedback submitted for the TomTom map after comparing and ensuring that it is also valid for OSM. Here is a list of the types of edits to be made, provided they do not conflict with others’ edits and a local source is available: - Highways - Adding or correcting highways - Adding or correcting link roads - Adding or adjusting bridges, tunnels, layers, or relations - Adding or updating lanes and related properties - Adding or updating traffic signs - Adding or updating access barriers - Adding or updating turn restrictions - Addresses - Adding or correcting addresses - Updating the position of address nodes, usually when an object has multiple addresses - Adding or correcting names of ways - POIs (Points of Interest) - Adding POIs - Correcting POI locations - Adding or correcting POI information - Resolving POI-land use discrepancies - Handling POI closures - Land use - Adding land use - Modifying existing land use extent - Buildings - Adding buildings - Updating building type - Adjusting building shape - Water - Adding or realigning rivers, streams, and lakes. - Railways - Adding railway tracks - Realigning railway tracks - Adding or adjusting railway infrastructure tags such as bridges, tunnels, level crossings - Ferry lines - Adding ferry lines - Realigning ferry lines - Adding ferry terminals These are incidental edits spread over time starting 26th Apr, 2023. We follow local guidelines and, if needed, consult with the community before making an update.
