I updated one way in Mali. Then forgot to save before I moved to Bolivia for other editing again in a small area.<br><br>For example, if I look at contributor statistics for Bolivia with
Pascal Neis new Contributor statistics by a specific comment, I see a
small box for Bolivia, and a large box covering two continents, simply
due to this single changeset.<br>http://resultmaps.neis-one.org/osm-changesets?comment=hotosm-bolivia<br><br>Such large bbox create problems when we want to analyse Contributor activities in one area extracting Changesets for a particular bbox. It is also difficult to assure follow-up of activities in a local zone you take care of. <br><br>To correct this problem, could the OSM API that take care to upload data to the OSM database analyze such Changesets that cover a large zone, in particular more then one continent, and split them if necessary in more then one changeset? <br><br><br><div><span><br></span></div><div> </div><div><span style="font-style:italic;color:rgb(0, 0, 191);font-weight:bold;">Pierre <br></span></div></div></body></html>
