How do I revert a relation?

NE2 · 2010-03-13T21:01:18.000Z

I accidentally overwrote http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/448030 with a new relation I was creating (hit edit instead of copy in JOSM) and need to revert to version 12. How do I do this?

That is difficult as that url does not show a map so we can not reach it with Potlatch. Also the link ‘show history’ is to no avail as it times out. http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/relation/448030 is without lat, lon:

You should give us a link to the exact spot (lat,lon) on the openstreetmap so we can open Potlatch. there. Maybe there is a change then.

That url will certainly not open in JOSM. Normally it opens in your webbrowser. And there I see no map.
JOSM? But what did you see? A place on the map? Ok then please provide a link to openstreetmap so we can also see the place on the map.

…what is potlatch?

OSM’s webeditor.

If you have a link to a point on openstreetmap then click the Edit tab and login to reach Potlatch.
I’m speaking about links like: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=41.599&lon=-7.306&zoom=10&layers=B000FTF

opened it as object in josm ( strg-shift-O) and got an EMPTY relation route=“US 412”. no member → no address → bad luck

next try: http://betaplace.emaitie.de/webapps.relation-analyzer/analyze.jsp?relationId=448030

and the next: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/448030

may be, that can help. have a look at the changeset

loaded http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/relation/448030/12 , saved it as file.
Opened in an editor and added a action=“modify” in the header and changed the Version number to the current one. Loaded the file in JOSM and uploaded it.

done

Do you need your new relation ?
I can save version 13 in a new relation if you want.

That is an eyeopener: to add the version number.

Thanks Matthias.

Thanks a lot, Nightdive. No, I don’t need version 13 - when I realized the error I copied it into relation 450255.
