00:00:03,650 --> 00:00:07,250
This video will show you how to add a road to OpenStreetMap

3
00:00:07,300 --> 00:00:09,845
by tracing Bing aerial imagery.

4
00:00:10,692 --> 00:00:12,153
Click "Edit" to begin.

5
00:00:15,150 --> 00:00:20,688
Find a road on the aerial photo. Click at the end of the road to begin tracing.

6
00:00:20,938 --> 00:00:26,517
Click again to add the next point and keep clicking to complete the road.

7
00:00:28,014 --> 00:00:30,939
To join onto another road and create a junction

8
00:00:31,393 --> 00:00:33,413
place the last point over the road;

9
00:00:33,663 --> 00:00:35,803
a "+" sign will appear next to the mouse pointer

10
00:00:36,153 --> 00:00:38,893
and the points in the road will light up blue.

11
00:00:39,143 --> 00:00:42,469
Simply click to create the junction.

12
00:00:43,616 --> 00:00:48,333
To finish, click again on the last point or hit "Return".

13
00:00:48,583 --> 00:00:51,060
Choose the type of road in the sidebar

14
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,382
and add its name and other details

15
00:00:56,690 --> 00:01:01,602
click on the "Misc" tab to record the source of the data as "Bing".

16
00:01:03,563 --> 00:01:05,689
To add a point in the middle of a road

17
00:01:05,939 --> 00:01:09,845
hold down the "Shift" key and click where you would like to add the point.

18
00:01:13,060 --> 00:01:16,556
To change the shape of the road simply drag its points.

19
00:01:23,207 --> 00:01:26,169
You can create a junction off any point in a road.

20
00:01:26,419 --> 00:01:29,930
If necessary, "Shift" + click to add a new point.

21
00:01:30,180 --> 00:01:35,039
Now "Shift" + click again to begin drawing a new road.

22
00:01:49,780 --> 00:01:50,500
To extend a road,

23
00:01:50,780 --> 00:01:55,101
click on the point of the end and add further points.

24
00:02:00,266 --> 00:02:02,392
To delete a point, click on the point

25
00:02:02,437 --> 00:02:06,711
and click the delete button on the toolbar in the bottom right-hand corner.

26
00:02:08,081 --> 00:02:09,590
To delete an entire road,

27
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,212
select the road by clicking on the line between the points

28
00:02:13,462 --> 00:02:14,768
then click "Delete".

29
00:02:21,872 --> 00:02:23,392
Draw a footpath or cycleway

30
00:02:24,137 --> 00:02:26,471
in exactly the same way as a road.

31
00:02:30,522 --> 00:02:32,392
When you open the menu on the sidebar

32
00:02:32,642 --> 00:02:36,142
simply select the "Paths" submenu.

33
00:02:37,929 --> 00:02:41,773
Sometimes, the Bing aerial imagery may be misaligned.

34
00:02:42,023 --> 00:02:45,604
If this happens, hold down the space bar

35
00:02:45,854 --> 00:02:48,576
and click and drag the aerial imagery

36
00:02:48,826 --> 00:02:51,781
until it aligns with the existing road network.

37
00:02:55,321 --> 00:02:56,750
You can draw an area

38
00:02:57,214 --> 00:03:00,372
in exactly the same way as a road or path.

39
00:03:05,398 --> 00:03:09,823
Make sure the last point joins back onto the first point.

40
00:03:10,762 --> 00:03:13,538
Use the sidebar to choose the type of area

41
00:03:13,650 --> 00:03:15,197
and add further details.

42
00:03:23,208 --> 00:03:27,261
