[Germany] Reviewing osmlint-osmium and osmlint data issues #364

Description

@vladaboitsik

Intro

Our team extracted data from OSM for Germany, and checked it via osmlint-osmium and osmlint. We found 25k+ issues to review and resolve. The output of all the linters can be found here.
Link to the OSM wiki page.

We are planning to review all the detections and help resolve the issues on existing data in OSM. We welcome help in fixing these issue -- ping us with any updates.

Timeframe

We are going to start addressing issues identified by the linters on October 12. Based on past experience, we expect about 1500 of the 25 473 issues detected in Germany to be resolved.

Tools

During our work we are going to use standard OSM tools for editing: iD and JOSM editors; Bing, Maxar, Esri satellites data; and Mapillary street level images and other open sources that are compliant with OSM.

Contact person

If you have a question about a specific edit, please comment in the changeset, message the mapper who did it, or email Natallia (natallia.zhouner@mapbox.com) as the manager of the project.

Used hashtag

#mbx_germany_roads is the unique hashtag for the changeset comments.

Here are some examples:

Impossible oneways is one of the 11 categories of linters:

-here we see two oneways from different direction are meeting in one point

There are problems with the connection of roads near polygons, especially parking lots. Parking lots in Germany are often mapped by polygons without lines (roads) inside the polygon and since there are no lines inside the polygon, routing will not work. Such example you can find here

Also found unconnected service roads. To be routable, they should be connected into the road network. You can find example here
