This and the rest is very valid reasoning.  Therefore I also
convinced that bus_stops deserve a node besides the road.

p.s. adding all the pedestrian crossings and bus stops on the South Circular

Bus companies may not want to to use it for routing, but someone else

  I'm a pedant, but you never vote for a Prime Minister. You vote for your

Well, if we're being pedantic then the Queen appoints the PM, and by
convention she chooses the person most likely to have the confidence
of parliament. There's nothing other than constitutional convention
to stop her picking anyone she likes, whether they're an MP or not,
and whether parliament likes it or not -- luckily the convention seems
quite strong. So all in all, there's not much voting going on, or
where there is it isn't necessarily treated in the way you'd expect,
which was kind of Steve's point.

But anyway. Both e-mails are evidence of why charging people for

Subject: Re: [OSM-talk] Voting

Sven,

 I can't remember that ULFL ever claimed that.

Ok. There we go again. Nobody has claimed anything, but the fact of the
matter is that a number of people seem to think that those who vote make
a decision that is a decision of the project rather than a decision
of those five people who voted.

I've been critcised for not suggesting an alternative. So here's my
suggestion:

* Continue your discussion and voting as before

* Give yourselves a name (OSM Tagging Task Force or whatever) and
create a mailing list.

* Do not talk about approved, rejected, or deprecated features;
instead, if something is voted in favour, it becomes a recommended by
OSMTTF feature.

* Be very clear that any feature *not* voted upon, or any feature which
got less votes than something else, or any feature that a majority of
voters didn't like, is still perfectly valid to use - you just don't
actively recommend it.

* Never try to keep people from using tags you didn't recommend (i.e. do
not add a big message to the Wiki saying THIS FEATURE IS NOT
RECOMMENDED!).

* Be very clear that the group you form is a small subset of the
project; you create recommendations based on today's knowledge and on
what you like and dislike. There may be any number of *other* groups in
the project who also create recommendations and who have the same right
to exist that you have. You are not special, the project has not asked
you to please give recommendations, and has not given you any special
powers that others don't have. (Much as the project never asks anyone to
please write software and be the project's premier software contributor
- anyone can do it and if it proves to be good, it is used.)

* Be very clear that your recommendations create no obligations
whatsoever on the part of renderers and editors; your tags are not
better or more important than anyone else's.

Do all this and I will stop complaining. I might even actively refer
people to you (better talk this over with the guys on the tagging task
force list, they usually have good ideas or so).

 Will this discussion only end when Ulf, Robin, me and several others set
 up a separate wiki for those who want to agree on and use a consistent
 tagging sheme because they believe it's a good thing? When this project
 is so open, why are we always blamed for what we do?

I'll draw a parallel to the licensing debate here. Over on legal-talk, I
constantly advocate PD, saying that nothing can ever be more free than
PD because it has no restrictions. I am then routinely criticised by
share-alike advocates who say that the freedom of PD might be abused by
people further down the line to actually *reduce* freedom.

In this discussion, I find myself on their side: Our project is so open,
and I have the impression that you are trying to *reduce* that openness
by setting up a voting process. I have the suspicion that in the end you
want a project where new tags aren't even allowed unless they underwent
discussion and voting. And that's where my fierce opposition comes from.

Bye
Frederik



I haven't expressed my view too much on this aspect of late. I think most
know that I'm an advocate of the let it evolve approach.

SteveC pointed me last night to this:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=WMSinyx_Ab0
If you haven't seen it already its principally discussing the arguments and
issues surrounding wikipedia and whether it can stand for truth or not.

OSM basically has the same dilemma. There will always be those that think
the prescribed approach, and this applies beyond tags too, is the only way
the project will be considered authoritative and therefore in the longer
term useful/successful. I don't hold this view, and this is why.

Like another poster I too use international standards in my life as an
engineer. But daily I come across poorly conceived standards and differences
in interpretation, usage and supposedly equivalent standards in different
jurisdictions. I also see standards having to change with time and that
these changes don't usually keep pace with technological developments or new
research and best practice. 

The final minute of the above video for me is the important point. An
expert, whether it is on tags or anything else, has a high degree of
knowledge about the subject, but that is not the only knowledge. Any
knowledge, whether from an expert of not is knowledge gained about the
subject and has relevance. This is why I think the original wikipedia
approach was fine, provided that it would never be considered authoritative.
If you want an authoritative version, in the same way that the
Encyclopaedia Britannica or OED might be considered authoritative, then
fine, make your rules and produce your work to standards, each individual
then has the option to consider these alongside any other sources of
information when making a decision or taking a view about something.

Looks really nice. But there seems to be something in the data, that
prevents rendering since the 4th.

 something on lines

  I'm a pedant, but you never vote for a Prime Minister. You vote for

  Minister.
  
Well, if we're being pedantic then the Queen appoints the PM, and by
convention she chooses the person most likely to have the confidence
of parliament. There's nothing other than constitutional convention
to stop her picking anyone she likes, whether they're an MP or not,
and whether parliament likes it or not -- luckily the convention seems
quite strong. So all in all, there's not much voting going on, or
where there is it isn't necessarily treated in the way you'd expect,
which was kind of Steve's point.

Maybe I am being slow but I just spotted this on Google maps:

* Add a place to the map (new)

You can see it at the bottom of the links on the left hand side.

then:

* Provide location and details using the info window on the map.

* Once you save your place, the whole world can find your addition by
searching for it within a few minutes.

Looks like it only works for the USA at the moment:

 By zooming out far enough to get the information you need.

They're just right and down a bit from Hong Kong, which is where the

The easy way to distinguish them from, say, Anglesey is that Anglesey

Manila. HTH.

I've been critcised for not suggesting an alternative. So here's my

* Continue your discussion and voting as before

create a mailing list.

* Do not talk about approved, rejected, or deprecated features;
instead, if something is voted in favour, it becomes a recommended by
OSMTTF feature.

I haven't expressed my view too much on this aspect of late. I think most
know that I'm an advocate of the let it evolve approach.
  

more snipping...

As a OSM Newbie, this seems like one of those old timer arguments you 
see in the back of the pub, where everyone involved knows their point of 
view, and everyone elese point of view, and knows no-one will change, 
but discusses anyway for old time sake.  Normally I stay away from those 
discussions, but this time I'll wade in (to knowing glances between the 
old timers, I'm sure...)

I like the way that new tags can be written up on the wiki, and then any 
users can show their feelings on them.  I think it's quite clear from 
the wiki that you don't have to use 'approved' tags, or that the 
approval is set in stone (it's a wiki after all), but I think it helps 
new user to see how new tags are being thought of by everyone, and for 
people with an idea to document their idea and show it to the world.  
Without something like this you will get fifty different types of subtly 
different tags.  I see the proposal / voting / approval process as 
something to do with the documentation on the wiki, and not nessarily to 
do with the map.

Maybe what's required is getting more users to look at the proposals and 
give their opinion (maybe putting the latest proposal thats being voted 
on on the front page ?)

Just my two penneth,

me too. it should evolve - but settling on agreed ways of doing things
does not prevent evolution

  SteveC pointed me last night to this:
  http://youtube.com/watch?v=WMSinyx_Ab0
  If you haven't seen it already its principally discussing the arguments and
  issues surrounding wikipedia and whether it can stand for truth or not.

there is no truth. only commonly agreed upon values. this can be
applied to society, wikipedia or osm, any group of individuals with a
common aim

  OSM basically has the same dilemma. There will always be those that think
  the prescribed approach, and this applies beyond tags too, is the only way
  the project will be considered authoritative and therefore in the longer
  term useful/successful. I don't hold this view, and this is why.

prescribed != non-evolving

  Like another poster I too use international standards in my life as an
  engineer. But daily I come across poorly conceived standards and differences
  in interpretation, usage and supposedly equivalent standards in different
  jurisdictions. I also see standards having to change with time and that
  these changes don't usually keep pace with technological developments or new
  research and best practice.

that isn't a failing of standards per se, though, only with their
implementation. some engineers are lazy and can't be bothered reading
how the standard should work (by the way, another engineer here), but
that doesn't mean the standard has no value

i use standards every day too, and plenty of them change every few
years. why don't they change more? well, the standards committees have
to meet, which costs money (which isn't available), work has to be
done researching methods (which is expensive and time-consuming). as a
result, standards committees appear slow to move and out of touch

we have a wiki, and everyone can cheaply get together and
investigate/discuss if a new process is useful or not, so we can
update the 'standard' every day if need be. and we do. every day there
is an active discussion/vote to add, change and remove tags. how is
this non-evolving?

  The final minute of the above video for me is the important point. An
  expert, whether it is on tags or anything else, has a high degree of
  knowledge about the subject, but that is not the only knowledge. Any
  knowledge, whether from an expert of not is knowledge gained about the
  subject and has relevance. This is why I think the original wikipedia

absolutely. there is no barrier to joining a discussion. no-one
looking at a tag discussion with a good idea would think ulf, alex, me
or anyone had some higher power. we're very careful on this, and are
aware and promote that every opinion is as valued as another. has
anyone ever said i've been doing this for x months, i know more than
you, your opinion is worhtless? not that i can see

  approach was fine, provided that it would never be considered authoritative.
  If you want an authoritative version, in the same way that the
  Encyclopaedia Britannica or OED might be considered authoritative, then
  fine, make your rules and produce your work to standards, each individual
  then has the option to consider these alongside any other sources of
  information when making a decision or taking a view about something.

  If we turn this point to OSM we can see that if the community pools its
  ideas on a point, tags in this instance, then we reach through discussion on
  the lists/IRC wiki etc a level of general consensus about a tag, it is
  immaterial whether the consensus reached is right or wrong in the wider
  context. It's what the community feels is appropriate at the time. The
  problem comes along only if a subset of the community decide to approve
  the consensus and cast it in stone as an immovable statement. Doing so stops
  further revision of the community consensus, and thus in my view makes it
  less authoritative with time.

no it doesn't - anyone can propose changing a tag at a later date.
e.g. i put forward  a proposal to merge cemeteries and graveyards,
someone explained why they were different (showing good sources to
back up their argument), and i retracted it. there is also a proposal
in place to delete sport=football which will probably go through. when
it was created it made sense, now it doesn't - a prime example of
evolution

voting by itself does not give me any confidence that the tags are
'approved' or useful or whatever. but people use them, a lot, which
gives me confidence that they see value in the tags, and thus how they
are created

i don't know the exact numbers, but having looked through tagwatch,
most items are tagged with things in map_features. why would people
use them if they had no value? this tells me we're doing something
right. maybe the people who use them 

Re: [OSM-talk] Application for GSoC

2008-04-09 Thread Arindam Ghosh
Hi,

As discussed in
[http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Talk:GSoC_Applications_2008]:


 I18n of OSM pages and map tiles

* How many times should a tile be rendered: one per language
defined in the system, or one per language defined in the zone? How to
define zones (countries): polygons, or tile sets (like osmarender's
z12 land/sea)? Ivansanchez 11:47, 8 April 2008 (BST)

* Let me put it in this way that, a tile/zone will be rendered
separately for a particular language defined in the system, only if
its' tranlations are available for that language at that point of
time. Otherwise the default renders could be used in areas where
localization is still not done. And zones can be defined as tile sets,
typically at different zoom levels of osmarender. It would be great to
have suggestions about more optimized approach. ArindamGhosh 02:38, 10
April 2008 (IST)


Do you think the zones can be defined in a better way so that it is
more effective from implementation point of view?

Please put up your thoughts...

 Der Systemadministrator des Wikis muss in der localSettings.php der
 MediaWiki-Installation den Wert 'xxM' erhöhen. 'xx', da ich nicht weiß,
 wie niedrig er aktuell ist.

12582912 / (2^20) = 12

Das scheint ja wirklich recht wenig zu sein.

 Mh. Du hast mappaint.use_real_width=true, nicht wahr? Der Punkt ist, dass 
 hier keine Richtungspfeile angezeigt werden. - abgesehen zumindest von dem 
 Ausgewählten Weg, der wird aber auch nicht mit real_width angezeigt. Und 
 das habe ich aus versehen vernachlässigt.

 Als Quickfix kannst du also z. B. mappaint.use_real_width auf false setzen. 
 Ab [599] - also auch im morgigen build sollten dann auf jeden Fall 
 Richtungspfeile für den selektierten Weg angezeigt werden.
Stimmt, diese Option habe ich gewählt - wobei mir gar nicht mehr bewusst 
war, dass das nicht die Standardeinstellung ist. Jetzt verstehe ich auch 
erst den Sinn der Unterscheidung zwischen wichtigem und unwichtigem 
Richtungspfeil...

Mit dem aktuellen build funktioniert es jedenfalls wieder einwandfrei. 
Danke für die schnelle Änderung.

[Talk-de] informationsfreiheitsgesetz

2008-04-09 Thread Frank Sautter
hallo zusammen,

nachdem gestern - das seit gut zwei jahren geltende -
informationsfreiheitsgesetz durch die medien geisterte, habe ich mir
überlegt, ob wir das nicht auch für unsere zwecke nutzen können.
interessant wären da sicherlich anfragen bei den
landesvermessungsämtern, den katasterämtern oder den städten und gemeinden.

in wikipedia heißt es:
Amtliche Information ist jede amtlichen Zwecken dienende Aufzeichnung,
unabhängig von der Art ihrer Speicherung, also beispielsweise
Schriftstücke in herkömmlichen Akten, elektronisch gespeicherte
Informationen, Zeichnungen, Grafiken, Pläne, Ton- und Videoaufzeichnungen.

die elektronisch gespeicherten informationen (luftbilder) und die
pläne (karten) wären für uns natürlich besonders interessant.

damit bekommt man höchstwahrscheinlich die gewünschten informationen,
allerdings wäre dann noch zu klären, wie die gewonnenen informationen
urheberrechtlich zu behandeln sind und ob wir daraus überhaupt einen
nutzen ziehen können.

aber vielleicht ist unter uns mappern ja ein jurist, der sich berufen
fühlt, hier mal eine rechtliche bewertung des ganzen zu machen.

grüße
  frank

[Talk-de] Teilweise gesperrte Straßen

2008-04-09 Thread Gerhard Schmidt
Hallo,

ich bin noch relativ neu zu Open Street Map und hab jetzt begonnen mein Dorf
zu erfassen.

Ich hab ein Problem mit einer Straße die bei uns vor der Schule vorbeiführt.

Die Straße in auf den Stück vor der Schule Einbahnstraße und zeitweise
komplett gesperrt. Wie tagged man so was.

Durch diese Dreiteilung wir der Straßenname 3 mal gerendert obwohl die Straße
nicht wirklich lang ist. Gibt es da eine Möglichkeit das zu unterdrücken.

Die von Dir zitierte Seite ist meiner Ansicht nach trotzdem nicht ganz
hasenrein, so findet sich unter zugegeben
(http://www.du-sollst-skinheads-nicht-mit-nazis-verwechseln.de/zugegeben.php)
zum Beispiel dieser Absatz (Hervorhebungen von mir):

Immerhin: Der Autor dieser Homepage muss zugeben, dass auch
Nazi-Glatzen tatsächlich so etwas wie den „rüden Ur-Gedanken in sich
tragen und daher WIE GESCHAFFEN für einen „richtigen Skinhead sind.
Seit Jahren rätselt der Verfasser dieser Zeilen darüber, ob nicht
viele - gerade ganz junge Glatzen aus dem Osten - nur deshalb
rechtsradikal sind, weil sie so gern Skinhead sein wollen. Vielleicht
sorgt diese Homepage bei einigen dafür, dass sie verstehen: Niemand
muss einen „auf Rechts machen, um Skinhead zu sein. Was noch lange
nicht heißt, dass man jeden Ausländer tolerieren muss.
Selbstverständlich DARF man ETWAS GEGEN AUSLAENDER haben - nur nicht
per se bitte schön.

Nichts spricht dagegen, einen Türken „als assig zu bezeichnen, wenn
er gewalttätig oder unverschämt daherkommt. Die Reaktion einem
Deutschen gegenüber wäre schließlich die Gleiche. Und wir wollen doch
die Kirche mal im Dorf lassen: Sind es nicht MEIST Ausländer, die
Skinheads gegenüber aggressiv werden? Oft halt zu Unrecht - auch
Ausländer müssen eben noch dazu lernen.

Das sind meiner Ansicht nach Verallgemeinerungen, die so nicht stehen
bleiben können.

Re: [Talk-de] Extrude-Mode

2008-04-09 Thread Martin Koppenhoefer
Sehr cooler Anfang, danke. Funktioniert zwar noch nicht zuverlässig
(z.B. dupliziert er, wenn man nur clickt, die Linie und kreiert
doppelte Nodes, oder es ist teilweise ein bisschen unklar, welche
Linie er warum verschiebt (wohl bei sich kreuzenden Linien, er macht
da noch keinen automatischen Node am Schnittpunkt)), aber es weckt
Hoffnung, dass man damit bald arbeiten kann.

Ich finde die Idee mit dem neuen Modus Geometrie eigentlich fürs erste
ganz sinnvoll, zum einen, weil wir wohl noch mehrere
Geometriefunktionen bekommen werden, zum anderen, weil ein Button
offensichtlicher / intuitiver für den Ungeübten ist, im Vergleich zu
einer Kombination SHIFT-rechts, mittlere Maustaste halten, dann ALT
und STRG...

Hinsichtlich der Bezeichung Extrudieren würde ich was anderes
nehmen, da extrudieren (z.B. gem. Wikipedia: Extrusion bezeichnet in
der Geometrie eine Dimensionserhöhung einer zweidimensionalen Form
durch Parallelverschieben im Raum. Durch Extrusion einer Fläche erhält
man einen Körper mit dem Querschnitt der Fläche.) eine
Dimensionserhöhung bezeichnet. Man könnte z.B.  Parallelverschiebung
(parallel translation) verwenden.

Ja, die Sache ist im Prinzip schon offen:

Die aktuelle Liste sollte eigentlich seit gestern verfügbar sein (LCL 7.01).

Die Ereigniscodes sind in den ISO Docs definiert.

Ich habe eigentlich schon mal darüber nachgedacht mal die TMC Meldungen
visuell in die OSM einzublenden, leider bin ich zeitlich dazu noch nicht
gekommen. Ich habe jedoch schon Java Klassen, welche das Suchen eines
Senders und das erste Auswerten der TCM Nachrichten erlauben. Die kann ich

Ich kann dir auch gerne alle Infos schicken, die ich bisher im Internet

Noch unsichtbarer und etwas problematischer ist die Vermischung

Ist das schlimm? Wenn ich eine Applikation habe, die Strassen als

verarbeiten und jeden Way als Mittellinie annehmen, dabei als Breite
entweder eine explizit spezifizierte width verwenden oder
anderenfalls einen Vorgabewert aus dem Strassentyp ableiten.

Bei dieser Art der Nachverarbeitung koennte ich selbstverstaendlich
jede Kante einer Flaeche, die auf der Strassenmitte verlaeuft, an den
Strassenrand schieben, wenn das fuer mein Programm wichtig ist.

Ich empfinde das derzeit so, dass eigentlich zwei Modelle gemischt werden:

a) Eines für das Rendern
b) Eines für das Routing

Bei a) will man viele schöne Flächen haben
Bei b) Linien, die richtig miteinander verbunden sind

Ich mach' deswegen also Linien und zwischen die Linien Flächen. Meist komm ich

 Das ist falsch. A* und Dijkstra finden beide eine optimale Loesung
 (sofern A* eine geeignete Heuristik verwendet, was bei Routing auf
 Geodaten trivialerweise mit der Luftlinie der Fall ist).

Habe mir Wiki Artikel übe A* und AmeisenAlg

Für A* hast du Recht, es liefert wirklich optimale Ergebnisse. Der 
Ameisen-Alg wird aber laut Wikipedia nicht für normales Routing, sondern 
erst für viel komplexere Sachen (das Problem des Handlungsreisenden, TSP

Hola.. pues creo que ese logo todavía existe físicamente aunque me parece 
que no es tan grande como está ahí. Si alguien se anima a redimensionarlo 
por cierto .. se pueden escalar elementos con JOSM ?

Bueno, como veo que está creando cierto revuelo y aunque no lo he dibujado yo, 
diré que este logotipo se encontraba físicamente dibujado en el Ágora de la 
Universidad hace unos pocos años. Quizás la persona que lo ha hecho ha 
utilizado una imagen aérea en la que todavía aparecía. No creo que sea acertado 
calificarlo de broma, aunque cada uno puede pensar lo que quiera. Supongo que 
es algo que pretende reflejar la realidad, como cuando alguien dibuja con 
detalle los bloques o tejados que forman un edificio importante, cosa que se ve 
en las mejores familias (en Berlín, por ejemplo), aunque no se trate de 
elementos navegables. Para mi es diferente del hecho de dibujar el logo de la 
Coca Cola o el Carrefour como habeis dicho.

Entiendo que no podremos coger directamente los datos del IGN y volcarlos a 
OSM, debido a que los datos en OSM tienen que ser completamente libres mientras 
que el Estado se reserva el derecho de explotación comercial de los datos del 
IGN :/

Sin embargo, hay en el texto de la órden he visto un par de párrafos que me han 
parecido interesantes:

por resolución del Presidente del CNIG podrán establecerse condiciones 
específicas para la cesión masiva y gratuita de datos a través de plataformas 
de distribución en Internet.

[..]

Cuando se trate de información geográfica coproducida con otras instituciones, 
el Convenio que regule esa colaboración establecerá la política de licencias 
que debe aplicarse.

Podríamos llegar a un acuerdo con el Presidente del CNIG por el cual nos 
permitan acceder a parte de sus datos para que sean convertidos en mapas y 
datos de OSM, siendo la licencia de los datos convertidos una licencia libre 
completamente.

[Talk-es] EMT en el mapa de Madrid

2008-04-09 Thread Santiago Crespo
Hola,

Acabamos de enviar un mail a Arturo Martínez Ginestal, Director de Tecnología, 
SIC y Calidad de la EMT, pidiendo su colaboración con el tema de  las trazas 
GPS de los autobuses.

Os pego el mail:

-
Estimado Arturo,

Vamos a presentarle una idea que creemos que puede ser de su interés:
queremos añadir las líneas y paradas de la EMT en el mapa libre de Madrid
de OpenStreetMap.

Según la Wikipedia: OpenStreetMap es un proyecto colaborativo para crear
mapas libres y editables. Los mapas se crean utilizando información
geográfica capturada con dispositivos GPS móviles y otras fuentes libres.
Actualmente su cartografía se distribuye bajo licencia Creative Commons
Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0.

Puedes ver el estado del arte del proyecto en:
http://openstreetmap.org

La ciudad de Madrid está bastante avanzada, pero aún nos queda mucho
trabajo por hacer. Las calles se dibujan sobre las trazas GPS que subimos
los voluntarios y sobre la fotografía aérea que Yahoo! permite usar para
este proyecto.

Hemos leído con entusiasmo [1] algunos documentos publicados por la EMT,
en especial la presentación La información “on line” como factor clave de
la movilidad de Octubre de 2007 [2].

La idea es añadir las 212 líneas de la red de la EMT (con sus paradas) en
el mapa de Madrid de OSM. Es posible añadir información extra a cada línea
o parada:

* Las líneas que paran
* Los tiempos de paso de cada línea
* El número de parada que se usa en los servicios de información de tiempo
de espera
* Los horarios de servicio de cada tipo de línea
* ...

Los mapas de OSM tienen una licencia de uso libre, por lo que es accesible
y se puede integrar fácilmente con cualquier aplicación. Así por ejemplo,
un usuario de un navegador GPS/dispositivo móvil que use los mapas de OSM
podrán consultar desde cualquier lugar dónde y cuál es el número de parada
que está en un par de bloques más allá, y así saber lo que tardará el bus
antes incluso de llegar a la parada (podrá correr si quedan 2 minutos!).

Si como esperamos se guardan los datos GPS enviados por los autobuses
e-bus en el Puesto Central de Control, sería una GRANDISIMA ayuda si nos
permitiesen dibujar los recorridos de las líneas sobre las trazas GPS de
los autobuses. Para ello haría falta subir en la web de OSM los puntos GPS
capturados durante un día normal en la red de la EMT.

Con esto conseguiríamos una mayor exactitud al dibujar las calles por las
que circulan los autobuses, con lo que el mapa de Madrid se perfeccionará
más aún. Cuantas más trazas subamos, más precisión tendrá el mapa.

Por otro lado, también nos facilitaría mucho trabajo si tenéis las
coordenadas (o puntos GPS) de las paradas.

Aunque hemos visto que tienen un mapa muy bueno en emtmadrid.es, esperamos
que algún día el mapa libre de Madrid será tan bueno que se empiece a usar
para mostrar los recorridos de las líneas ;)

Muchas gracias por su atención,

Santiago Crespo

Différents points à noter:
- la base ne possède pas les chemins de terre ou sentiers de randonnée
(p.10)
- il y a aussi une version pour camions (hauteur de ponts) et une pour
piétons (mais sans sentiers de randonnées ?!)

Quelques stats (p.8):
- 1,2 million de noms de rues en France
- 602 802 lieux-dits
- 1,2 million de routes carrossables (+ 4 500 km en 1 an) (je suppose 1,2
million de kilomètres...)
- 31 500 ronds-points
- 80 500 km de rues à sens unique (+ 1 500 km en 1 an)

qui seraient intéressantes à comparer avec les stats OSM...

A noter qu'ils ne proposent rien pour les cyclo, un autre point à l'avantage
d'OSM.

D'ailleurs à ce propos, je crois que ça avait déjà été discuté, mais 
existe-t-il des stats OSM de ce type ?
j'ai bien trouvé le nombre de node, le nombre de contributeurs, mais j'ai rien 
trouvé sur le nombre de rond point ou sur le nombre de km déjà mappés.

cerise sur le gateau : avec répartition par département ?

J'imagine que la requête SQL doit être bien velue, mais ce serait sympa

Re: [Talk-GB] reprojected NPE

2008-04-09 Thread Gregory Williams
I've just taken a look at the Canterbury tile. It looks good, although
I'd observe that there is a noticeable horizontal shift in places. Look
at Stone Street, for example (That's the B2068 Roman Road south of
Canterbury for non-locals on the list.).

Was it our email conversation the other day which sparked you to look at
this?

 Hi all,
 
 I have put a small test version of the NPE map reprojected for more
 accurate use in JOSM. The URL is:
 
 http://dev.openstreetmap.org/~timsc/wms/quickmap.php?
 
 I have only uploaded 3 tiles each 0.1 by 0.1 degrees. The areas are
 Gravesend, Canterbury and Ashford, all in Kent. You might notice the
 grid lines are no longer horizontal and vertical unlike the GBOS NPE
 tiles.
 
 I would appreciate feedback or suggestions. If feedback is positive, I
 will reproject the whole of the UK NPE and upload it to the dev
server.
 Also it may be worth adding the WMS to JOSM by default.
 
 Regards,
 
 Tim

 It may be worth reassembling the NPE map (from tiles or backup)
 and retiling, it but it would be a big job! (The potlatch blog  
 mentioned anchor points and improving alignments...)

I'm plotting anchor points on 5km x 5km squares which is working  
pretty well. You still need to do a little manual shifting for  
alignment, but this is mostly due to inaccuracy in NPE itself rather  
than in the reprojection.

 The whole thing is implemented in PHP and Imagemagick. It takes  
 about 60 seconds to render one 0.1 by 0.1 tile - pretty slow! The GD  
 library is much faster but it does not seem to have an affine  
 transform function.

Ah, ok. I'm using Perl and Imager, you're not even limited to affine  
transforms with that. :)

 I did see you are making NPE available on Potlatch. What projection  
 is this in? I am guessing spherical Mercator.

Yep, standard Google-like spherical Mercator tiles. They're at
http://richard.dev.openstreetmap.org/npe/z/x/y.jpg

where 'z' is 14 only at the moment, and x and y are Wales! (But growing.)

Is there some way in which JOSM can display these tiles?

 Is the 300dpi data available on the dev server or perhaps elsewhere?

The originals are way too big to put anywhere, I'm afraid. But the  
data at the address above is barely reduced in resolution and is a lot  
more manageable.

cheers
Richard
