Finland - Fix Duplicated Highways

Hello Finland OpenStreetMap Community,

I would like to announce a new MapRoulette focusing on duplicated highways.

Finland - Fix Duplicated Highways (MapRoulette Challenge):

  • Challenge Link: https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/51644
  • Goal:
    • This challenge aims to eliminate overlapping duplicate highways in OSM.
    • Duplicated highways lead to confusing navigation, visual inconsistencies (appearing as doubled roads/highways), and errors in data processing due to potential tagging differences.
    • By resolving these issues, we’ll significantly enhance the map’s usability and accuracy for everyone.

How Tasks Were Created:
* TomTom identified highway segments with overlapping geometry within a 0.5-meter buffer.
* Overlapping highways with correct level and layer information were excluded.
* Please note: Some tasks might be false positives. If you encounter a case where the overlapping is intentional or correct, mark it as “Not an Issue”.

Do not hesitate to reply to this post/message for any further inquiries or

Thank you,
Salim
