As I understand it, there is currently no side-by-side comparison option ("diff") between versions at openstreetmap.org, like at overpass-api.de: https://overpass-api.de/achavi/?changeset=71406326 It would be great a great feature to have, for better understanding updates on units like https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/439311424 -- ideally directly on the page, alternatively as a link to overpass-api.de. This was also asked about six years ago, but many things have probably changed since then, and it might not be as difficult to add it today: https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/26996 An example mock-up, where the unit number "439311424" is a link. It could also be a link called fx "View diff" next to "View History" at the bottom, pointing to a diff view of the latest revision: asked 09 Nov '19, 10:50 ragit |
help.openstreetmap.org is for specific questions, not for feature requests. There is already a similar issue at openstreetmap-website. You can add your ideas to this ticket. However it still needs someone to implement it. answered 11 Nov '19, 08:39 scai ♦ Thanks @scai for your feedback and link, it was really constructive. And thanks for suggesting that feature more than five years ago in "Better history diff by adding colorization of changes #738" in the Github issue you linked to above. Perhaps a section could be added to the Getting Help page? For development and feature requests." Oh wait, that's another feature request :-)

I'm not entirely sure what your question is. In addition to Achavi there is also OSM Cha which provides a slightly different display and a Deep History tool which shows all tags over time for a particular object. Do these provide what you need? answered 09 Nov '19, 15:42 InsertUser Think he wants a Deep History for geometry, or OSMCha dedicated to objects.

Sorry, I should have added an example image, to help explain what I mean. It has been added now.

For the website, why don't you check at Github and propose any ideas not mentioned?
