Nach Trump-Dekret: "Golf von Amerika" künftig in Google-Karten

US-Präsident Trump hat den Golf von Mexiko umbenennen lassen in Golf von Amerika. Google will jetzt nachziehen und den Namen in seinen Karten ändern. Dabei soll in Ländern außerhalb der USA die angestammte Bezeichnung nicht ganz verschwinden.

In interesting show of restraint, #USA president's order to change "#GulfOfMexico" to "#GulfOfAmerica" on govt maps seems to specify that only the part under US jurisdiction is being renamed.

(Order also renames "#Denali" back to "#MountMcKinley")

#MappingChallenge (Day 119/200)

Started adding a round of buildings via MapWithAI in #Q7337714 and then went to do some other contributions to the Montgomery County (#Q26756). After mapping within the county for the past 2 months, finally saw contributions from other users.

Was shocked that I found a lake as a node (https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/356723783/history#map=17/30.31158/-95.51712).

Can anyone share what the deal is with #usgs data and being used for #OpenStreetMap?
