My community has an airstrip name Smith Airport and this no longer exists as it's now just a bunch of houses. How can I remove it? asked 25 Jan '17, 17:54 Scoochydc |
login to https://openstreetmap.org, find the airport, click "edit", select the relevant node or polygon, delete it, then save. answered 25 Jan '17, 18:34 Hjart 1
Thanks for your time. The airport name can only be seen at zoom levels outside of edit. When I zoom in to edit, there is no sign of an airport. Nothing to select.

It is likely that the tiles at those zoom levels just haven't been re-rendered since the edit.

I don't see any airport at that spot at any zoom level (or am I missing something?)

For some reason it is only visable in edit mode, and even then you need to zoom out past the edit mode allowance.

For clarification, that's not "in OSM" - that's iD's "locator overlay", and shows things that were in OSM at some point in the past (days/weeks/months ago). If you disable the "locator overlay" in iD in edit mode (just untick the box) you'll see things that are in OSM now.

I see it in iD too when zoomed out, but I have no idea why. I tried loading the area in JOSM and didn't find it and running http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/lx2 over the area doesn't reveal anything in the area either.

Using Overpass Turbo's "diff" functionality (http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/lxe ), I was able to find the mystery airport: https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/368945203. It was removed 7 months ago.
