In 2025 alone I found vandalism incidents specifically targeting map of Indonesian parliament compound twice, in March and now in late August. Thankfully these are all restored.
What made me sad that some Indonesians don’t understand the OpenStreetMap at all, what they only know in their head is political activism. They do by erasing - or editing - the place of institution they despise. Not really sure if these incidents are unique to maps in Indonesia or there’s international example of politically motivated vandalism of OSM maps?

Styles for vector tiles are typically written in the MapLibre GL style language. These definitions exist in JSON, which, for various reasons, is not a good language for humans to write in.

This report reflects on my journey during Google Summer of Code 2025, where I worked on the 3D Model Repository (3DMR): a platform that makes high-quality, CC-licensed 3D assets discoverable, reusable, and directly linkable to OpenStreetMap (OSM) fea…
OSM exists now since more than 20 years. During this time, a tagging scheme evolved. It has undergone several changes since, is partly approved by the community, but never anything was forced.
I once walked past a small building, spotted that its got an address, and added it to OSM. Then I walked past it again, the building had its facade updatedand the address was nowhere to be seen.
I have noticed that the Apple mapping team, in their work within Kazakhstan, consistently mismapped various highway=* ways, for example:

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:

Maps are far more than static illustrations; they are powerful tools that help people navigate, explore, and understand the world.

Greetings whoever is reading this, including my future self who may be the only audience.
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.
Eastern Road Travels
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.
