I haven’t done any reversions yet. I was planning to start from the oldest changeset and work forwards, however the oldest changesets don’s specify a source. I’ve asked about a couple of these including:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/117791362 - first changeset - on outskirts of Wilcannia https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/117831384 - outskirts of Old Junee Both of these are claimed to be from information provided by ’someone’ who had travelled on those roads. I’ve just asked for more info regarding the source of this information. I also queried a couple of recent edits from 'local information and NSW Speed Data’: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/147432769 - western edge of Kempsey from 'local information and NSW Speed Data’ - also from ’someone’ who had travelled on those roads. https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/146881278 - private driveway near Brooms Head from 'local information’ - I had previously surveyed this maxspeed, and recent Google imagery showed the same limit. No reply regarding this one. How should I (or we) approach this? Will I need to check available imagery for every changeset? Should I go ahead and revert the NSW Speed Data ones?
