have been trying to make sure that each constructed building

We have changed many buildings that have been drawn as
suggested by you Martin (previously traced by remote mappers
especially in highway towns of Nepal). </div>

<br>
For a long time I wanted to hear
opinion on the topic of topology rules.<br>
<br>
By "topology rules" here I mean just
simple rules such as:<br>
* polygon X should not overlap polygon
Y<br>
* polygon X should always be above
polygon Y<br>
* point X should be not further from
line Y than D<br>
etc.<br>

<div class="gmail_extra">most important is IMHO:
when do you share nodes, and when not. <br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">1. E.g. political
boundaries usually should reuse the same
border ways (=no gap between entities).</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">Other examples:</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">2. Buildings.</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">If 2 buildings share a
wall or are constructed one aside the other
(double wall), you should have them connected
in OSM as well.</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">If a square is
delimited by buildings, the place=square
object should share ways with the buildings.</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">etc.</div>
<br>
Some mappers tend to map these things very close
but distinct, which IMHO is a topology error.<br>
</div>
The rule I want to see: map in a way that it
represents reality nicely.<br>
<br>
</div>
3. Roads and areas:<br>
</div>
Some mappers connect "incompatible" object types
(centre lines of roads and areas). The areas should
end at their border and not be extended.<br>
<br>
