Hello everyone,

I recently updated all the MapRoulette challenges with new data from OSM: https://maproulette.org/browse/projects/39464 <https://maproulette.org/browse/projects/39464>

Thanks!

It has lots of built in checks for geometry and tagging problems for roads and other features, and I think would be helpful for validation as well as regular mapping. Here is more info on how to use it: https://github.com/osmlab/applepaintstyles <https://github.com/osmlab/applepaintstyles>

We recently used our Atlas data analysis tool (https://github.com/osmlab/atlas) to look at a few types of potential issues related to roads and routing in Kenya, such as roads that have overly sharp angles, roads that cross but don't connect, routing problems, turn restrictions, places where navigation is impossible due to missing connections or potentially incorrect one-way roads, and other similar issues.

I wanted to let you know they are available in case others wanted to try fixing some of them — I also plan to go through some of them myself.

>>> In MapRoulette you can either pick a random task to fix or click on a specific one. If you want to do tasks around a certain location, such as somewhere you are familiar with, you can click on one from the map view, and then click Next task: Nearby when you finish it.
