Bah, chronology destroyers!

Source is survey, not hashtag.

That’s a good plan. The older data appears to be from OSM back when it was under CC BY-SA but isn’t credited. The newer data is clearly in the public domain and well-sourced.

At a glance, the imported SCC waterways appear to be of high quality, but we should double-check the tagging. I think you’ve already noted some of the issues with it, like tiny segments of streams being “underground” just because a bridge passes over them.

Conflict resolution will be annoying but not as bad as it will be if we wait. So far, I’ve modified the Guadalupe River to reflect a change to its course around SJC, and you’ve also split some streams to add them to boundary relations. (I’ve been avoiding that so far, because I haven’t researched which changes are due to avulsion and erosion and which would keep the boundary where it is.)

Never mind, I took care of it in changeset 100857.

Thanks, looks good except that https://www.openhistoricalmap.org/node/2108487030/history was not a duplicate and was already retagged to use more correct tags. Can you restore that one node. I did a spot-check and it looks like all the other ones I worked on are still intact.

Thanks!

All the tags in this import need to be translated from the source to conventional OHM/OSM tags. For example, surface=PAV is causing editors (and potentially future renderers) to misinterpret the roads as *un*paved.

Ways representing rivers and streams should only have waterway=*, not natural=* water. This is causing a lot of validator warnings and could lead to rendering glitches wherever waterways self-intersect.

Looks like much of this data already got imported 54 years ago in changeset 1: https://www.openhistoricalmap.org/way/49639254

Most of this changeset needs to be reverted. Many of the places duplicate existing place nodes, and these place:wikidata tags make a mockery of Wikidata.

Congratulations on adding the one millionth element with a start or end date! By my calculations, the millionth dated element is Hoctor Close:

I love reading about buildings getting moved. Did you know we have a way to handle that in OHM? You can map the house in both locations, adding start and end dates that correspond to its time at each location. Now when you scrub the time slider on the homepage back and forth, you’ll see it move back and forth.

You can optionally add both copies to a chronology relation to more easily keep track of them: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Open_Historical_Map/Tags/Relation/chronology Here’s an example: https://www.openhistoricalmap.org/relation/2735032

Hope this helps!

Hi, it looks like this import made the licence=* key much more popular than the license=* key. Perhaps you would like to weigh in on this proposal and poll to unify the two keys: https://github.com/OpenHistoricalMap/issues/discussions/549

Thanks, we’ll want to put some (rough) start_date tags on these places so they don’t show up all the way back to the beginning of time. Do you know a good source for Kentucky place histories? The Kentucky Land Office has some incredible detail about some cities (lilke Florence: https://web.sos.ky.gov/land/Cities.aspx/?ctr=277 ) but nothing about others, and unfortunately it seems that the site is copyrighted.

Looking pretty!

¡Hola Pilar, muchas gracias por estas fronteras incaicas! Yo quisiera incluir esta parte de OpenHistoricalMap en un artículo nuevo de la Wikipedia en inglés (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:OpenHistoricalMap ) para mostrar la posibilidad mundial y anticolonial del proyecto. La captura de pantalla debe tener una licensia permisiva o estar en el dominio público, pero estos datos y changesets no tienen las etiquetas “license”. ¿Cual es la fuente y estado de copyright de estos datos? Si hay un documento con más información de sus contribuciones en este tema, el artículo puede enlazar al documento también. ¡Muchas gracias por su ayuda!
