I’m thinking about adding mainly road surface material and quality of my town today.
Well I live in an area with little to no previous mapping and I’m practically the only person doing the area. It’s good and bad at the same time! I can go for an extended survey and either literally put hamlets on the map, or go to towns with streets drawn in but no POIs. Or pore over satellite imagery and draw landuse in… or paths… or lakes… Neverending fun. I tell my friends it’s like doing a geo-sudoku.
I really wanted to do some mapping, but in all places I lived it was already fully mapped
@IDatedSuccubi @beta_tester That depends on what “fully mapped” is - a lot of my mapping tends to be tagging, not creating new objects: for ways - maxspeed, surface, lit; for POI nodes - opening_hours, wheelchair. Buildings - building_levels, roof:shape, building type (building=detached/apartments/commercial/shed/…). StreetComplete is efficient in terrain.
Also, many artworks lack any tagging beyond tourist attraction= artwork, but that requires some detective work beyond mere mapping;)

@IDatedSuccubi @beta_tester Have you opened the area up in StreetComplete?
Have you checked MapRoulette, KeepRight or Osmose for your area? There can be some things to fix.
@IDatedSuccubi @beta_tester I have never encountered somewhere that’s fully mapped in OSM.
