Hello OpenStreetMap Norway,
Today, I am announcing the launch of two new MapRoulette challenges focused on improving data quality in Norway:
-
Norway - Fix Intersecting Buildings
Link: https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/51804
This challenge targets situations where building geometries overlap on the same layer. Intersecting buildings can create visual clutter, make the map difficult to interpret accurately, and obscure the true layout of an area. Fixing these overlaps helps ensure a cleaner and more precise map representation. -
Norway - Fix Building and Highway Intersections
Link: https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/51821
This challenge addresses instances where building shapes intersect with highways (roads). Such intersections lead to visual errors and can negatively impact routing, as the map incorrectly suggests that roads run through buildings. Resolving these ensures better map usability and more reliable routing for all users.
Please note that some tasks in these challenges might be false positives. If you encounter a task that does not represent an actual issue, feel free to mark it as “Not an Issue”.
If you have any comments, feedback, or questions about these challenges, please don’t hesitate to contact me by replying to this message, via email, or through direct messaging.
Regards,
Salim
