I showed this to some of my neighbours on leggettsrath and they were fascinated they know the area please keep up with the amazing finds and please come into Rothe House and avail of your 10% discount in the merchants shop
Hello! I'm loving the videos, and I'm still making my way through, so sorry if this is answered later, but I'm very eager to know. In this video it says something like 'features that still exist'. Is there a way to add features that don't quite exist any more? Like a well under a road? Or a former castle that's now a farm building?
Yes, what I mean is "physically exist". They are two very different cases. For the well, you can add covered=yes as a tag, the castle would be a combination of historic=castle + building=farm_auxiliary or building:use=farm_auxiliary. Glad you're enjoying the videos!
Hi, thank you very much for the video! Editing directly on OpenStreetMap never really occurred to me but seems very easy to use. Would it be wrong to map the wall of the graveyard first, close it with an extra line (barrier=entrance) across the entrance and create a multipolygon relation for the graveyard. It would avoid having lines on top of each other, but might be completely wrong or just an alternative way to do it? I really like relations to avoid redundancy and would like have them on rivers where I recently added the Irish name and had to do it on every single part instead of only once. But as nobody seems to do it this way I am afraid that it would be a mistake (I only see boundary relations a lot in JOSM). Could it be that you mapped a tree as a castle? From the historical map I would have interpreted the wall with the trees inside as the remains of the castle. I think your videos are really helpful 👍. Many thanks again. Kind Regards, Gerhard

Shhhh, Desiree, I haven't told them about the discount yet, that's in the next video. ;-)
