Hi! The Data Working Group had a look at the data, and decided to revert the two pool changesets. The polygons the algorithm had drawn were consistently of poor quality with stray nodes and nodes far outside the pool boundaries, and the imports hadn't been discussed with local communities.

Hi, thanks for the feedback.

I have disabled the hosted demo for now, and will remove the uploading part from the code in favor of showing an URL that will open the editor at the location.

If its of any help, you can find any contributed polygon with the tag `created_by=https://github.com/mozilla-ai/osm-ai-helper`. Feel free to remove all of them (or I can do it myself once I access a PC).

I will be happy to continue the discussion on what is a good prediction or not. I have mapped a lot of swimming pools myself and edited and removed a lot of (presumably) human contributed polygons that looked worse (too my eyes) than the predictions I approved to be uploaded.

Hi, thanks for replying! I was looking at your source code, and wondering how easy it would be to create a .osm file instead of uploading the data. The JOSM editor’s todo list plugin would make it easy to plough through all the polygons or centroids, and do any refinement necessary. For example, I’m curious to try this out to detect crosswalks, and those need to be glued to the highway being crossed.

Something else you need to be mindful of is that the mapbox imagery may be out of date, especially for the super zoomed in stuff (which comes from aerial flights). So e.g., a pool built 2 years ago might not show up.
