[OSM-legal-talk] Wiki Mapia Mass Upload

2013-09-15 Thread Christoph (TheFive@OSM)
Hi,

in forum question and answers we received a Tip (from an external) of mass 
upload of openstreetmap data to wikimapia.
http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=22578.

i try to route this tip to the right discussion place.

The tip is not checked by an OSMler yet, as far as i know.

Christoph

I don't understand enough of Wikimapia to actually determine which
account has uploaded what when, but a cursory glance at the link (OSM
can be activated as a base map in tha layer switcher) seems to indicate
that buildings look similar to OSM but not the same (my guess - both
imported from same source?) while many parks, commercial areas, and
graveyards seem to have 100% identical geometries to OSM.

Pre-fork or post-fork? That's one key question.

not shure. which date?

what i found: user=Gast-User   which means guest user.
this user has only one edit, 2 days ago
but hundreds of Gast-User all with different ip ! looks like fake?
he copied only buildings or parts of buildings which have an address; other
parts of the same building without address have not been copied.

have a look at:
http://wikimapia.org/#lang=delat=53.620956lon=9.945073z=18m=o
just move the cursor over the buildings.

now i need an area with newly added buildings.

Regards walter
