This page shall help to solve problems about the following types of imports:

  • Import of new objects without coordinates, only with address data
  • Import of new objects with bad coordinates, like if you have public transport stops with coordinates, but only one node for both directions
  • Import of additional keys for existing objects, with only address or bad coordinate data.
