Future deprecation of HTTP Basic Auth and OAuth 1.0a

Hey Paul, is there a timeline for deprecation of 1.0?

Inferring Default Speed Limits

Interesting and I hope to catch up with you in Florence. Out of curiosity, can’t we just add default maxspeed limits based on the type of roads? I am assuming different countries have standardized speed limits based on types of vehicles and roads.

Here is some dubious information about speed limits in India: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_limits_in_India (lacking citation for several claims though :( )

The claims in the Wiki-page don’t seem too far off what I’ve observed living there:

In April 2018, the Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways fixed the maximum speed limit on expressways at 120 km/h, for national highways at 100 km/h, and for urban roads at 70 km/h for M1 category of vehicles. The M1 category includes most passenger vehicles that have less than 8 seats.

Does this mean we can programmatically fill in default maxspeed for roads based on type of road wherever the tag is absent?

Welcome back!

I did not realize that Organic Maps was on F-Droid. You’ll find that StreetComplete app design and functionality has been improved greatly.

Happy Mapping!

@ToniE Yes, please. I’m working in the southern parts of India.

@nickjohnston, @mmd thank you for the links. They are quite useful. I’m currently going through Dodd’s Overpass Tutorial.

Did you eventually meet her and map the trees?

National Highways new numbering scheme

Wait, you went through an ocean of skewed scanned images of a rusty old document to make this? How’d you make sense of it?? :)

Awesomeness! Where can I get a hi-res version of that?
