Martin Koppenhoefer: == Warin, can you give an example for something historic that is not there any more in reality and should be removed from OpenStreetMap? Through all the years I have never encountered anything like this mapped in OpenStreetMap. ==
I have deleted some powerlines tagged as removed. Typically because they have been removed and replaced with underground lines, which are correctly mapped. I might take a year before traces of the poles are completely gone as farmes plow over the spots and put new crops there. But lines in the air will be removed without a trace. And of course highways are changed all the time. When a 4-way intersection is replaced with a roundabout we de not keep the four pieces of the road inside the roundabout tagged as razed. We have the history for that. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
