Hello, OSM community of Denmark!
Our team has been mapping missing roads since May, as described here: Mapbox Organized Editing, Missing Roads
This project has been a success, and we are preparing to expand the effort to European countries, including Denmark. We’re sharing notice here to ensure that OSM community of Denmark has adequate notice, consistent with the Organised Editing Guidelines.

- List of data team members.
- Link to our Wiki page.
This post is the location we will monitor for suggestions, questions, and concerns. Thanks!
You can also reach out to the project coordinator directly at valeryia.yukovich@mapbox.com (Valeria) and osm-edit-escalations@mapbox.com or post a comment in a changeset.

Sounds great Mapbox will add missing roads. However I thinks it will be mainly service roads in the case of Denmark.
Please use ‘SDFI luftfoto’ as the background layer - it’s the lastest 100 % coverage of Denmark and from 2024 and best quality.
I have a questing what is the minimum lenght of a missing road segement Mapbox will adding? let’s say a segment lenght is below 5 meter - then you will not adding it
best regards

Hello, ballerup-kommune! Thank you for your interest towards our mapping activity and the recommendations regarding sources of information for adding missing roads in Denmark. We will take that into consideration. Within our work with Missing Roads we avoid mapping very short roads (f.ex. driveways in cases where there is a house located right near the road). While mapping we try to look at the mapping approach that is common for the area where we work, so we will also pay attention to what’s accepted in the mapping community of Denmark.
