      Yes. Without knowing their infrastructure, they obviously cache and probably process the raw OSM data locally. If they chose to use their own overrides or the official-tag is impossible to tell.

        Thanks for the tutorial. I’ve only ever done a few edits to OSM. Didn’t know the finer details.

          An easy way to contribute is via a phone app called StreetComplete. It asks you questions about stuff near you when you are out. For example, names of places, if the crossing is handicap friendly, road surfaces, etc etc

          Edit: I wrote another post about it a while back, https://lemmy.world/comment/18685150
