I wonder why the OSM team isn’t calling the ISP out by name.

Because this would open up OSM for defamation (and hinders a commercial resolve). It doesn't solve anything right now.

The seach engine tries to infer the correct administrative area based on points. This is known behaviour of ~~nominatim~~ some search engines but doesn't mean that the data is incorrect

You are not allowed to use Google Maps for this. Ther is copyright protection on it.

How does it work? You go there and note down the addresses.

When you make a phone call, the antenna's are used 100% for calling and using data is disabled (or at least, it used to be). Android might thus "pretend" that it is still connected.

I created the routing profile and put it online, some other person then took it and actually integrated it and got it merged. So, I did the fun part and they did the boring (but also important) work.

So I'm not able to claim the full credit, but close enough to get a lot of bragging rights.

You are supposed to have a separate entry for the bicycle repair stand and the office. One could move leaving the other behind.

With https://mapcomplete.org/cyclofix.html?z=18.4&lat=51.34379511912127&lon=12.369132296106727, it should be easy to add them.

I contributed the "skiing" profile a few years ago :)

I'm quite curious for your custom map, would you mind sharing it here?

 

Hi all,

I have been made moderator for this community after I requested this.

However, I'm but a human too - and I already have enough to do, so I would like to spread the load as much as possible - not to mention that I'll be on holidays soon.

In other words, I'm searching for some more people to man the ship!

To apply as moderator here, I'd like to be sure that you are well-embedded in the OSM-community and have the necessary skills. As lemmy is a mostly english-speaking community, you must have decent english skills.

Furthermore, some communication skills and discretion is necessary too. At last, a bit of time to regularly check the community here is necessary as well (I'm lacking the last thing a bit). Furhtermore, you'll obviously need an account in the threadiverse. If you have an account (on another server), that should work. (I think one can moderate over server boundaries). If you don't have an account yet, it might be a good idea to make one on lemmy.ml as that is the one hosting the community.

As many people discovered lemmy just recently, the useraccount here probably won't have a lot of credit here. As such, you can:

 

Hi all,

A new version of MapComplete is in the works, using MapLibre and lots of Svelte.

It marks a big refactoring and a new, nice visual style. I'd be honoured if you all were to test it and eventually point out the last bugs you find.
