@JubilantJaguar @sicsempertyrannis

The developers pronounce it "Osmand" like the fairly common name.

@przmk
Nope.
@Pleat1752

@redd @JubilantJaguar not really.

OsmAndMapCreator is a free download and can process raw OSM data into what you need.
I used it all the time for quick updates before their "live" updates

@pr06lefs @schnurrito @openstreetmap

Because not everyone lives somewhere where open data exists. Even that map of a single country shows that
40%(?) of the country is missing the relevant data.

@badelf @ray @openstreetmap

Satellites are expensive. There is no noncommercial option at a useful resolution.

@balsoft @infeeeee @openstreetmap

That's the exception rather than the rule.

I would generally prefer to know what routes to look up though.

@sven @openstreetmap I think the tagging you're showing should be fine, but as I think the :forward and backward tags aren't as widely supported I'd put the lower speed as a generic maxspeed for that bit of road as well. That way simple software will default to the lower limit and more sophisticated software will use the correct one.

@pineapplelover @openstreetmap
That thread has a top answer with a grand total of one vote on it, I wouldn't take it as consensus on anything.

Concrete that is poured in one piece usually has visible lines. They're placed there after the fact or when the concrete is wet to control how it cracks as it settles. That doesn't mean it's separate plates. The cuts normally aren't full depth.

@pineapplelover @openstreetmap
They would usually be poured in one or two slabs with the joints added to the wet concrete or cut later.

If it looks like an impossible mould would me needed it's more likely to be pre-fab and lifted into place later.

@pineapplelover @Tyoda @openstreetmap

The ones on the wiki have visible lifting points.

They might also have visible alignment issues or evidence of moulding at the seam or corners.

@RubberElectrons @strubbl
I don't know if @geomob are running anything in the US these days. @OpenStreetMapUS might have events that interest you?

@mdione
IDK it it's been edited but the main page is showing the correct link, but the preview is wrong for me on en.osm.town.

@strubbl

@infeeeee @openstreetmap
Yes I was.

In the current state they are useless for showing the images, but it might be better to keep them temporarily and use the changeset information to contact the original 'uploader' and see if they'd be willing to upload via e.g. @MapComplete (who have a @panoramax instance now).

iD should not be allowing the creation of these so I think someone should open a bug report if it isn't already fixed.

@infeeeee @lukstru @openstreetmap
That looks like something that should work in an HTML img tag, but doesn't. Maybe it has been truncated?

@palitu

It does have QuickOSM, but its only pre-made style is a bit rudimentary.

@openstreetmap

@maltfield @palitu
As I understand it Maeritive does a decent OSM based map really easily.

QGIS can only do it after a tonne of work.

@uninvitedguest @shoobs ooh, I didn't realise there was source available

@controlphreak @snrkl
Now that StreetComplete has overlay layers for places and things you can add most of the thing you'd want to add in person.

@Adderbox76 @openstreetmap

I know the author has already mentioned it, but MapComplete.org might be a good site to look at if you're just starting and have local knowledge of an area. I know in my early days mapping that just looking at a list of map features would remind me about places that I've know about forever and never thought to put on a map. The MapComplete themes might have some obvious omissions that you can fix quickly.

@Mwa @joostjakob

Apple Maps uses OpenStreetMap data in some countries.
