I added several recognized Bedouin villages in the south.

I also went over several places, and changed them.
They aren’t villages anymore.
e.g. Avukah, Havat Shalem, etc.

Done.
There’s no “Yokneam”
Just “Yokneam Illit” which is the small town, and “Yokneam Hamoshava” which is the village.
Yokneam Illit is what people usually mean when they say “Yokneam”

1274, polygons: 1211

63 missing

(Today we should get to around 10 that are most probably problematic cases!)

10 Is a big goal…

I solved about 5 “problematic cases” today.

Mr_Israel · 2011-01-12T12:28:40.000Z

I went through from the top to the letter G and fixed everything.
I’m now at H

Somehow Haifa is showing as missing. It has a relation instead of the normal place tags.
Is this a problem ?

Mr_Israel · 2011-01-12T12:50:53.000Z

Now working on the letter : K
Everything on the list till K is done. Only Haifa is missing.

Mr_Israel · 2011-01-12T13:13:08.000Z

Finished with “L”

Another problematic place is ליפתא : http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/278478735

Looks like there are around 27 left to go through. I expect even less than that.

Mr_Israel · 2011-01-12T13:37:01.000Z

I finished with “M” next is “N” is somebody wants to continue you are welcome.

Here are another problematic places:

מחנה ישראל = > http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/278474098
מגדל אפק => http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/278478058
מגרון => http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/946566457

talkat · 2011-01-12T15:11:42.000Z

All done.

Lifta: Ruins near Jerusalem
Mahane Israel: Old Maabara. Doesn’t exist anymore.
Migdal Afek: Ruins. There are 3 ruins nodes there. I believe we can leave only one, and delete the other 2…
Migron: It’s too new to appear in Bing’s images. I drew an approximate north-south rectangle, which is the general shape of the place.

Mr_Israel · 2011-01-12T15:51:18.000Z

Do you mean all places are done or just the problematic places are done?

talkat · 2011-01-12T17:27:22.000Z

Mr_Israel:

Do you mean all places are done or just the problematic places are done?

Just the 4 problematic ones I mentioned.

Mr_Israel · 2011-01-13T10:13:33.000Z

I think there is 0 missing.
But todays update is missing to cross check.

talkat · 2011-01-13T10:55:50.000Z

Mr_Israel:

todays update is missing to cross check.

Geofabric didn’t produce a file, so we’ll have to wait till tomorrow.

I’m happy to report that we (finally) completed this project.

Thanks to all involved!

Mazal Tov to OSM and of course Israel.

I can already see a big difference in the look and feel of Israel maps in phone apps.
Israel doesn’t look like a desert anymore. GREAT!
