piebro/osm-data huggingface dataset:
mikkolukas (2020-10-25 21:26:09+00:00): It is actually still a routing task.

If the routing is made properly, then as soon as the node is identified, the name of the road doesn't matter anymore.

The node is just a coordinate and the task of the routing engine is to bring you as close to that point as possible.

One way to help with that, as a mapper, is to make footpaths that lead to entrances to the building (and maybe even number the entrances.

Hoohlahoops in the actual mapping to conform to a data consumer, in this case the routing engine, is the same as making special mapping to make it render nicely on osm.org

Hint: We should never do that.

Hjart (2020-10-27 18:25:03+00:00): To clarify. Making "Hoolahoops" to help routers in general isn't a problem. Making  "Hoolahoops" to make up for weaknesses in a specific router can be though.

borovac (2024-06-12 08:32:07+00:00): Hi nick26841,

I see that you created this way as a track (way/863375949) and also created this way as a service (way/863375949), so you left this house without access to the main road.

In the same changeset, you also change the classification of these roads (way/849748773; way/849748774) from service to track and leave a couple of ways without connectivity.

Can I ask you to check again if this road should be a track or because of the connection it should remain a service road?

All the best Milan (borovac)
NickMillerUK (2024-06-12 09:05:21+00:00): Hi Milan,
Thanks for your message. This is a very old changeset.

These are access roads but they are tracks in their physical characteristic. 

Are tracks not routable features? I was under the impression that they were.

I reviewed the area using the OSM Inspector and found no routing issues for these tracks. You can also view that here:

https://tools.geofabrik.de/osmi/?view=routing&lon=-6.17030&lat=54.19938&zoom=17&baselayer=Geofabrik%20Standard&opacity=1.00&overlays=snap_points%2Cunconnected_open_ends_1%2Cunconnected_open_ends_2%2Cunconnected_open_ends_3%2Cunconnected_open_ends_4%2Cunconnected_open_ends_5%2Cunconnected_open_ends_6

I think the classification should be based on the physical nature of the entities unless there is a really good reason not to do so.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks
Nick
NickMillerUK (2024-06-12 09:09:54+00:00): Looking at the guidance I see that because there are permanent residences along them we should consider using highway=residential or highway=service. I don't mind. I am sure the people that live down there mind not having a proper road to access their properties though <g> We have this issue at a property in Romania and it is exhausting driving up and down compacted tracks every time you want to go to the shop or anywhere else.

Thanks
Nick
NickMillerUK (2024-06-12 09:12:10+00:00): I have switched them to highway=service for now.

A few things. 
Please map round buildings as a triangle over the edge of a building, select it and press the O key to make it round. You forgot to do that here .
No need to map fences.
See this message as well

Just a remark.
Not all round object are buildings. 
There are many round objects like corrals for keeping livestock. They show both inside as ouside a shadow. No need to map them.  When an object shows no shadow at all, it is not above groundlevel and thus no building.
Please keep that in mind while mapping.

'k heb even gekeken hier
De Oude Rielse Baan staat nog steeds op tracktype=grade4
Dat moet dus grade2 worden. Dan routeert het meer van harte. grade4 hoort bij een zandweg. 
foot=yes kan nog weg.
De Dwarsdijk bij 's Gravenmoer heb je 
oneway=no getagd.. dat hoeft niet.
oneway=no is default op alle wegen. 
Het wordt als onverhard gezien omdat er unpaved staat.

Existiert dann dieser Feldweg

Joerg-CH (2020-10-25 17:33:15+00:00): hallo PT-53,
ja, der Feldweg ist neu erstellt und führt nördlich an einen landwirtschaftlichen Gebäude vorbei, das zum Teil über den bisherigen Verlauf der Wege gebaut wurde. Der Weg ist mehrere Hundert Meter lang neu planiert, folgt aber weiter westlich der bisherigen Spur.
Allerdings habe ich von den Gebäuden keine genaueren Daten, daher habe ich die alten Wege erst mal in der Karte gelassen wie sie sind. Sobald es dazu neuere Satellitenbilder gibt, kann man das dann komplett korrigieren. Aber zum Routen ist erst mal der neue Weg durchgängig vorhanden.

HellMap (2020-10-25 13:55:01+00:00): Are any of these actually allotments, i.e. land use primarily for individually cultivating gardens? Latvia has almost no real allotments left in terms of OSM. 99% of these are just residential areas and dacha villages (vasarnīcu ciemi).
Reinis Bērziņš (2020-10-25 16:29:17+00:00): Yes, these specifically are real allotments where people just cultivate land, but don't live permanently. Whenever I saw a yard and house suitable for living - I marked the area around it landuse=residential. Next week I plan another visit to this area and I can make pictures, but meanwhile you can switch on the Maxar satellite layer and see the cultivated land and no large residential houses. Generally speaking, although some original allotment districts in Latvia have been sporadically rebuilt as residential areas (sometimes illegally), there are still quite numerous allotments left in Latvia, and this is one of them.
Reinis Bērziņš (2020-10-25 16:45:01+00:00): I re-read both English and Russian wiki pages landuse=allotments. Although compared to the Soviet era, these areas are now only partially used for cultivation, almost every lot has several fruit trees and mostly some flower or vegetable beds too. There have been some changes - there is much greater emphasis on entertainment function, some lots are poorly maintained, nevertheless landuse=allotments is still the closest match I could find. If you find a better tag - I would be ready to correct them.
HellMap (2020-10-25 17:25:39+00:00): Yeah, during the Soviet era, these were legally classified as allotments (as in дачний кооператив and similar). They were locally named/organized as "dārzkopības sabiedrība" and similar. But since the dissolution of USSR, they were all reclassified as part of the closest village, as its own "vasarnīcu ciems" or just individual dwellings and all given a proper address. None of them are legally allotments anymore, since there is no such concept in the law in Latvia. Each plot is private land and there are no requirements to cultivate the land (like, for example, German allotments). Colloquially, people still call them дача/огород or whatever, but that's mostly just jargon and no one actually has to keep gardens or produce food. No one can evict them for failing to cultivate the land. I find that most OSM uses of allotments are just editor misunderstanding about what allotments means, especially due to historical use, and because, as you say, for lack of "a better tag".

All that said, some of these plots are still arguably used that way and the produce sold at the farmer's markets, so we could map it that way. But the problem is that being allotments implies a large area of this use, where everyone is participating, not just individual plots. Personally, I have biked through dozens of these "allotments" and they are all just private land with old and new houses and gardens in various states of use. Yes, there are fruit trees and greenhouses and vegetable beds, but I could not definitely state that any of them are used for actual community-focused food production. It all looks personal use.

I'm not going to change this, since you surveyed it. But I would just tag them as residential areas and that's it. I have retagged a bunch of these after surveys myself. I think allotments is more incorrect than residential is imprecise. I have looked into this before and there was no better tag that I could find. Since OSM maps the present, there isn't any sort of "historical allotments" tag.

bhietsch (2020-12-31 01:48:20+00:00): Actually, disregard my comment about it being class III, I was thinking of Poe Paddy. Regardless, this is still a state park so I would think it would be appropriate to have boundary=protected_area and leisure=nature_reserve
ZeLonewolf (2020-12-31 02:19:29+00:00): Yup, looks like my bad mangling this property, good call on the inner member.

I built this utility from the national protected area database that should help:

If I read it correctly, this should actually be tagged protect_class=3 as you note.   leisure=nature_reserve is probably appropriate also.

Also, if you are working on these areas, you probably want to be aware of some of the current thinking on protected areas and where the US community is trying to go with it: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Park_boundary

Feel free to hit us up on the OSM US Slack, channel #local-pennsylvania or #tagging.  Park tagging is actually a fairly frequent topic of discussion: https://slack.openstreetmap.us/
