[OSM-talk] Power Lines and topological error detection

[Pierre Béland]

Various topological errors related to power lines are not detected by OSM editors. Monitoring the High Voltage power network for Quebec I often find nodes connecting crossing waterbody, highways, landuse to the power lines. JOSM validation do not detect these.  I often, it seems that remote mappers forget to look sideways in their virtual world.  Also, it is probably possible to write an Overpass query to find nodes that intersect this various «incompatible worlds».

This made me write this humoristic note. Who knows, this may help OSM contributors to remember to look sideways.
