Thank you for checking and for your careful approach.
This part involves imagery offset handling, so I’ll take care of it later.
You did the right thing by pointing it out and leaving a comment.

Thanks again for your help and willingness to learn!

Also, if mapping something is difficult or unclear, there is no need to force it.
You can leave a comment on the task, and more experienced mappers or local mappers will be happy to help.

Thank you very much for your contribution!

Thanks for checking again, and no worries — everyone starts as a beginner.

In this area, the OpenStreetMap standard map is already aligned to existing data, so it’s a good reference for consistency.
Bing imagery can be offset locally, which is why the project instructions say to adjust the imagery offset and use GSI imagery as a reference.

So in this case, the original geometry was already consistent with the surrounding features.
The safest approach here is to keep the existing alignment and avoid deleting and redrawing objects unless there is a clear reason.

Thanks for being open to discussion — that’s always appreciated.

Yes, the instructions clearly say that if imagery is offset, the imagery itself must be adjusted.
They do not say to move or redraw already aligned features.

Bing can be offset in this area, so alignment should be done by correcting the imagery offset and using GSI as a reference.

Hi,

I aligned this object carefully to the imagery and nearby features.
After it was deleted and redrawn, the current position is noticeably offset.

If there is a specific reason or different imagery source for this change, could you please share it?
Otherwise, I think the previous alignment was more accurate.

Thanks.

Please do not remove or redraw existing features without reviewing the intent
of previous edits.

This area was already mapped with position correction in accordance with the
HOTOSM Tasking Manager instructions:
https://tasks.hotosm.org/projects/27165/instructions

Bing imagery without offset adjustment may appear minor at first, but will
result in misalignment with surrounding municipalities.

Thanks for the correction. I had confused genus with taxon. I’ll be careful from now on.

Hello,
It seems that the Bing imagery offset was not adjusted.
Most of the added and modified buildings and roads appear to be misaligned.

Hello,
I mapped the ground-mounted mega solar plant here.
This site used to be a golf course, but it has now been converted into a solar power facility.
According to Esri aerial imagery, the clubhouse has been demolished.
Therefore, Esri seems to be more up-to-date than Bing in this area.
The small surrounding structures appear to be related to the solar facility equipment,
so mapping them as buildings is not appropriate here.

Thank you for the feedback, I’ll take it into account.

Noted, thanks.

Thank you very much for your detailed feedback.
I primarily use the Japan GSI seamlessphoto Imagery as the most reliable source for accuracy, so I believe the building shapes are generally correct.
After that, I refer to Bing and Esri imagery to check for temporal changes, adding or deleting features as needed.
Regarding roof overhangs, since they vary by building, I traced the roof edges as a guideline. I understand your point about overestimating footprints, so I will pay more attention to this in future contributions.
Thank you again for your kind and constructive review.

Hello, I often pass by this place.
There is no permanent building here.
What you mapped is a temporary rest hut/prefabricated structure for the Aira Bypass construction.
I'm not sure if it should be mapped as a permanent building.

Thank you! That was a copy-paste mistake — I accidentally added Aphananthe=aspera when the actual species is Firmiana simplex. I’ll remove the incorrect tag. The rest of the tags are correct for Firmiana simplex. Appreciate your help!

Thank you for the comment!
Understood. I’ll keep only the main Wikipedia tag and remove the other language tags.

Yes, that’s a typo — it should be note, not nete.
Thanks a lot for pointing it out! I’ll fix it right away.

Thank you for correcting the typo in the vending tag.
I'll make sure to use vending=noodles from now on.
