A few bike lanes were added in the part of town I live in (yay!) and I’d like to add them.
However, I’ve mostly been using these apps to map things: * everydoor * map complete website * go map !! (rarely)
I cant find any way in map compete to add bike lanes – they added on the street, so effectively making the space for the cars narrower. Is there any simple way of going about and adding these types of lanes?
Thanks!

Id like to share a simple method Ive devised to map unfamiliar areas outdoors. Suppose youd like create a GPX track of a park under the following constraints:

I checked my changesets and it seems i broken my editor: I added data at location 0,0. This has to be reverted but I’m to tired and might introduce more mistakes.
So a job for tomorrow.

Vector Tile styles require icons are served in a sprite sheet. This contains all of the icons in one file. Years ago there were a few options for these, none of them great.
Im importing boundaries in Croatia, and Im almost done. So I wanted to describe my process so that someone else maybe doesnt have to rediscover this process. Maybe there is a better one, but I didnt find it.
When using OSMs iD editor in New South Wales, Australia, there are multiple background layers you can enable that show aerial/satellite imagery. Different imagery sources can vary greatly in terms of how recent and/or blurry they are.
Hello,
I would like to ask if in your country there are officially designated areas designated by local authorities (such as municipalities, civil protection agencies, emergency services, etc.) for:

I had the privilege of presenting about weeklyOSM at COSCUP 2025, Taiwans largest open source conference, held on August 9–10, 2025, at the National Taiwan University of Science and Technology (NTUST) in Taipei.
I think people use these diaries for slightly more meaningful posts, but I just want to keep saving my progress somewhere. It took me 5 days to maping this island. I could have done it faster, but I wasnt in a rush.
Ive mapped in OSM for many years now, but more of my work and been Bike-Pedestrian related, and Ive only just come back around to mapping streets their widths and their number of lanes as a means to start evaluating crossings in our area.
Five years ago, I started mapping on OpenStreetMap, and I have to say that I have never had problems with my Italian community, especially because opinions are expressed in a detailed and cordial manner, even when they differ.
Since I discovered that there were recommended guidelines in the wiki for managing bounding boxes, I have tried to remind all users—whether beginners or experienced—about them, to make it easier for us locals to verify edits.
Unfortunately, I have encountered non-Italian users who have expressed their disapproval through teasing, humiliation, and everything associated with bullying.
This contrast between the Italian community (where people reason seriously) and the noisy part of the international community (where responses come in the form of provocations) has struck me deeply, leaving me sad and hurt.
At this point, I asked myself whether it really makes sense to continue improving the mapping of the territory where I live if I am surrounded by users who do not respect me…
The answer is yes, because OpenStreetMap is an open system, in need of data and people who try to do their best, also helping “younger” users. The more of us maintain a healthy environment, the healthier the community becomes, and the fewer those who ruin it will be.
Regarding the insults and teasing I have received, I have already taken all possible actions. The most effective measure has been to block, wherever possible, on all known social platforms the people who publicly and privately mocked me.

As a passenger in a moving car, I like to do OSM field mapping, constantly scanning the view outside and noting every detail I can spot. The catch is, I need to do it fast. Too fast to worry about proper tagging or structured data entry.

I’ve been continuing an anti clock-wise journey around Grenada.
Other Projects
Yeah there have been a month or two when work here stops. Often its just other projects but sometimes it’s a but like my day job.
Progress
I think this period started with Egmont, where I have family, through Calivigny, Fort Jeudy then all the Westerhalls. A lot of coastal details too at times. I did go inland but do not recall how far. Had fun doing the river along La Sagesse Beach Road and all the associated buildings. Loved doing Felix Park Rd. I met Dr G and spent an afternoon with him there. Very nice to meet a local botanist that I could learn from.
So now in August I’m nearing the end of Hope. From then on it’s all North and into 2026.
Seit heute befindet sich eine GoPro max (2025) in meinem Besitz. Dazu kommt dann ein ca. 150cm Selfiestick mit zwei Klemmen, der diese Kamera dann hoffentlich an meinem Fahrrad befestigen wird.
Good afternoon from sunny, hot, and muggy northeast Florida!
I noticed that on OpenStreetMap we were missing types of surfaces for many important roads in Kosovo.
Hey gang!
I went on a roughly 2-week hiatus because I was visiting my uncle down south. However, I am back and hopefully able to work on OSM more
The first thing I did when I came back was deal with some very old vandalism that was somehow undetected? So I managed to clear all that up and am now remapping it correctly
Anyways, thats enough from me! Goodbye!

As in my profile, yes Ive been addicted to https://blacket.org for a while. If anyone joins it and wants to reach out, my username is 76 ingame and my discord username is .i76. (76). Just editing the overnight camp I attend right now. Being bored.

In collaboration with a local team in Grünstadt, Mannheimer Mapathons e.V. completed the mapping of the historic Jewish cemetery in early 2024 after five months of data collection.
I have continued mapping Happy Valley Goose Bay. I noticed that the ESRI world imagery isn’t particularly good. I could do with some more or better data, and I may have to do some drone flights to get it.
I have also started to reach out for data in the surrounding towns.

Hello!
I’ve been mapping in OpenStreetMap for a few years now, and I believe the current method of mapping routes is quite painful and wastes hours of editors times to just upkeep it,
So, here is my idea on how we could fix it.
