[talk-au] Suspicious or disallowed sources

[Phil Wyatt]

Hi Adam,

 

First thing I would do is drop a comment on the changesets asking where he got the outlines from – there may be some other ‘open’ source that he has used.

 

Cheers - Phil

Hi,

 

I've been around a while, but don't join in the chat much :)

 

A new user has added contributed some data via iD editor, and the source is listed as Bing Imagery. However the imagery doesn't show the features that have been added as they're too new. (I've checked through all other imagery sources in iD)

One of their contributions from within the last month lists nearmap as the source. It is quite possible this is true, as again none of the listed imagery sources in iD or JOSM include the features added.

I've attempted to contact the user (it's only been 24 hrs since i tried), and had nothing yet.

 

Is this a revert or wait scenario?

 

https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/69893632  <- the car park and the soccer pitches are not in Bing or elsewhere. Google does have it.

 

https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/69917230 <- running track not in bing or elsewhere.

 

Cheers,


Adam
