@TonyJC Have you tried the “Imagery Offset” feature in the iD editor?

Is there a new Esri World Imagery update? Did they announce it somewhere?

Found it…

Fulberg & Ochsenbodenstrasse (Unteriberg, Schwyz, Switzerland)

I wonder if anyone can locate the actual location shown on that map using an advanced Overpass query. (I see bridges, rivers, roads, and peaks in the image. Can we create an Overpass query to check for all locations that contain these features nearby?)

The research team has drafted a report page here : osm.wiki/User:Rphyrin/LCCWG

Really cool.

I wonder if you could export and share those OSMCarto-like QGIS symbology settings so we can skip the time-consuming setup and benefit from your hard work instead 😂

I wonder if there is even a surefire solution to fix the inherent problems that any ‘anyone can edit’ collaborative project (like this one) faces. Not everyone has enough resources to defend every inch of the content, whether against prank vandals or a very persistent good-faith editor (who was misled and actually caused significant damage to the project). The back-and-forth edit warring is exhausting and feels pointless. Also, not everyone has the mental stamina to prolong the conflict by reporting it to the available higher authority.

Or maybe we could look up to more mature projects out there (like Wikipedia). Over time, they made the project less and less inclusive (only the trusted elites have the privilege to edit the content), all for the sake of quality assurance.
