Very nice, can't review it in full now, since I'm away until Monday.
However, I think it'd be good if you could link to the osm.org browse

 Very nice, can't review it in full now, since I'm away until Monday.

In case you wondered about the Internal Errors: the Waypoints and Images 
links are deliberately not working. I have not added verification of the 
uploaded data yet. Therefore, I disabled the methods.

 However, I think it'd be good if you could link to the osm.org browse
 view for the node, or show the raw tagging so people can get an idea
 how it handles various tags?

Yes, that is a good idea. At the moment, the merge preview basically 
shows the original tags; it only strips the naptan: prefix.
The way different tags are handled can easily be changed if needed. I 
have not implemented any particular suggestions that arose from the 
public transport tagging scheme yet. So, once decisions have been made 
there the editor can be updated. I also need to add a method to handle 
tags which are not part of the tagging scheme (discarding them silently 
is probably not an option).

 Also, what do the colours mean?

blue = Naptan stop (no highway=bus_stop but a naptan:AtcoCode tag)
yellow = plain OSM stop (highway=bus_stop but no naptan:AtcoCode tag)
orange = Merged stop (highway=bus_stop and naptan:AtcoCode, but is still
  unverified or has no shelter tag set*)
green = Merged and verified stop

* I do not remember off the top of my head if there is another rule. I 
think we discussed something about route tags on the mailing list. I 
need to check the code to provide reliable information.

 Looking great.

Thanks!

 I didn't play for more than a couple of moments so I may be missing
 something here, however if a stop has been merged, ie it appears to have all
 the right data, then there will be no wish to merge it with another stop.
 There could be a danger of losing data if we did? I think once a stop
 reaches a certain level of tagging it should perhaps be possible to disable
 a merge.

You are right. That is one of the things that I need to do when I clean 
up the muddle of the map interaction code.

My idea is that only plain osm and plain Naptan stops can be merged. As 
soon as a node has both a highway=bus_stop and a naptan:AtcoCode tag it 
cannot be part of a merge any more. The similar stops list accounts for 
this already but the map does not.

 I'm a bit confused by what are the correct bus operator references
 in west
 mids.

 For example, Brian is using NXWM for National Express West Midlands
 which
 would seem logical, however on the Centro website if I check at the
 bottom
 of a route number page I find that WMT is still referenced on all the
 timetables and operator code given as WMT not NXWM.

Do be aware that two or more bus operators can share a route, often
with one running during the busy periods as a commercial service and
another being paid under contract to run services at quieter times
(evenings and weekends for example). Also be aware that you are using
the term 'route' to cover all the roads that a service with a
particular service number uses. In Transmodel it is refined a bit with
a number of different terms. It would make the professional community
very happy, and might work better in the longer term for OSM to
reflect on their modelling and terminology for a few minutes. In the
following text I will use Capitalised words for Transmodel concepts.

In Transmodel a Line is a thing with a pubic facing code (ie 11C, 71,
105 etc) - so what you call a route is what Transmodel calls a Line.

Transmodel uses the term Route to mean a unique ambiguous path through
the transport infrastructure (road or rail) taken in whole or part by
a vehicle operating on a Line. There will normally be two or more
Routes per Line (in opposite directions for starters and then possibly
various detours). At some point we are going to want this information
in addition to the correct collected data in the route relations.

It then defines a Service Pattern as a unique sequence of Stop Points
that a vehicle calls at while it goes along a Route (it may not stop
at all Stop Points it passes on the route). There can be more that one
Service Pattern for one Route, normally due to short working.

Timing Patterns are defined giving the interval of time between Stop
Points and are associated with a Service Pattern. There can be more
that one Timing Pattern per Service Pattern. In the rush hour more
time is allowed for completion of the route than during off-peak times.

Vehicle Journeys then run on a Timing Pattern (which have an
associated Service Pattern and hence Route and Line) at particular
times. Each Vehicle Journey is associated with an operator (allowing a
Line to be shared between multiple operators). The Vehicle Journey
only needs a start time, set of days and data range and Timing Pattern
and everything else can be worked out from the Timing Pattern and
associated Service pattern and Line. It is pretty clever general and
normalises out repetitive data (such as Service Pattern and Route)
while allowing all situations to be accommodated.

Sorry for the rant / brain-dump, but it is something that I have
wanted to raise for a while now. It may be useful to use the Route
relations to mean what Transmodel means by a Route (a unique path
through the network) and then wrap those Route relations up into a
Line Relation.

Anyway, something to think about.


Nothing to stop someone adding separate relations for each service and
indeed I think its likely we will go that way where there is confusion. Its
easier to make two relations than to try and understand multiple services.
For now it's a case of one step at a time though. The vast majority of folks
will never get as far as Brian, Christoph and I if its any more complicated
than it already is anyway, in fact its probably too complicated already when
you consider overlapping relations. So, maybe over to the transport
professionals to add the stuff they might want separately?

The route relation has been in standing since relations came about, so its
unlikely we will see it give way to an alternative naming method (eg line),
but I agree it may become confusing when routing algorithm routes are
different to relation routes. Mostly though I think we generally understand
the context differences, so unlikely there is an issue within OSM. Easy
enough to add a transmodel=line tag anyway if that's needed.

Cheers

Andy

Peter




 Any ideas, I think this crops up with other operators too.

This is where the relation type=route gets a little fuzzy. Are we
representing a service pattern, or a franchise, or a named rail corridor?
This has confused me recently when tagging heritage railways (
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_United_Kingdom_Independent_and_minor_railways).
For instance on the Mid Norfolk railway (

How do you start? Honestly, the information on the ground at bus stops is so
poor it's completely useless. Getting on a bus is like rolling a dice (which
determines where you'll end up, as well as how much you'll pay).

In Britain, the postal service has supplied a text file listing all
post boxes.  Each box has a 'ref' looking like 'W1 106', and of course
it has a location in the real world.  The text file doesn't give
lat/long or grid references, just the name of the street or
intersection.  Sometimes the address given is precise enough to deduce
the location of the postbox by looking at the OSM map, but other times
when it just gives a street name you must find the post box by hand.

The original file, converted into tab-separated format, can be
downloaded here: http://edwardbetts.com/postboxes/postboxes.tsv

http://www.dracos.co.uk/play/locating-postboxes/ is a project to
locate all the post boxes on the list.  Its data partly comes from
OSM, but also from people manually locating a post box on the map
based on the street name given in the text file.  By submitting, you
agree to place the location you submit in the public domain.

I would like to import this data into OSM - to add post box nodes with
'ref' tags.  As far as I can tell this data is in the public domain;
mere facts are not covered by copyright, and the lat/long data has
been derived by hand using the addresses in the file (and OSM data) as
a guide.  I know that some people (who are not lawyers any more than I
am) have differing opinions, and feel that any information derived
from the list of postboxes must still be subject to the Royal Mail's
copyright somehow.  (In which case I would argue that copying the
'ref' and delivery time information from the notice on the front of
each postbox must be equally infringing.)  Anyway, because there is
disagreement, I wanted to check with you people before doing anything.

Can the manually located postboxes, based on OSM data and a list of
postbox street locations from the Royal Mail, be added to OSM?

Yes. But have you checked with Matthew Somerville, the author of that 
tool? AIUI it's already integrated with OSM. I did the whole of N14, and 
added it to OSM, and it showed up in the tool as done. (But perhaps he 
hasn't yet implemented integration in the other direction...)

Re: [OSM-talk] Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) - Openstreetmap import first pass

2009-07-01 Thread Joe Richards

 there are some obvious omissions and variations as you mentioned one that 
 stands out to me is the omission of the Rakaia River which is more than a 
 small creek! 

I'm not entirely sure why these are not showing up.  It's not a case of the 
tags being missing, they are lacking in the original data as well.  I'll upload 
the .osm files shortly for you to peruse..

 and also Canterbury some roads shown as minor tracks but as I see it having 
 them is a huge bonus as they can be retagged later to correctly display etc 
 from local survey/knowledge

Right, I think some roads are being tagged as dirt tracks, when instead they 
should possibly just be surface=unpaved, hence they won't show up with dotted 
brown lines...

 I don't have you tech skills but would be happy to assist with improving 
 correcting the data after the import as I have quite alot of local knowledge 
 and about and about all over the SI

That's exactly what it's about at this stage, spotting anomalies, tagging 
problems and other omissions...

Re: [OSM-talk] [OSM-dev] Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) - Openstreetmap import first pass

2009-07-01 Thread andrzej zaborowski
2009/6/30 Joe Richards joefis...@yahoo.com:
 I've been working on the LINZ data import, on attribution/legal as well
 as the actual import.  The LINZ data I have is actually via the NZ
 Open GPS project

Would it make sense to get access to the original dataset from which
the NZOGPS dataset is generated, before attempting import?  There are
surely things that don't fit in the Garmin format and were left out,
also I seem to remember that format uses 5 decimal digits accuracy
(which isn't terribly bad but using the original values would be
better) (it may have been specific to the Garmin files I had to deal
with and not a general rule, please correct me).  Otherwise, when the
LINZ data becomes available it will take another big effort to merge
data imported so far with new data that became available.

On the other hand I realise it's best to import as soon as possible so
that people can get on with mapping even further details and fixing
any problems in imported data.


 I've hacked around with a few other scripts and have created a python
 script which creates .osm files, and then imported them into a local
 postGIS instance I run at home.  From there I've generated tiles using
 Mapnik  and uploaded them to a dev server for your perusal

 Upload is still in progress but most are there already (starting in the
 north and working south).  It's just south of Christchurch already and
 I have gone and rendered Dunedin, Queenstown and Glenorchy ahead
 of time.  If you find zoom 16 is not visible then zoom out a bit until you
 find the available tiles.  As mentioned all of the north island is done.

 http://linz.dev.openstreetmap.org/~JoeRichards/

 Notes:
  * import was done on a basic world map (from vmap0) to provide
 coastlines where they were missing
  * some large rivers have a lot of detail, but some seem to be missing
 altogether (e.g. Lower Hutt river) - this was also missing in the NZOGPS 
 dataset,
 not sure why
  * tiles are still being generated and uploaded now (Tue 30th June),
 but all of the north island to 16 zoom levels is done as well as the
 Tasman... South of Christchurch is still being uploaded (although some
 tiles are there at lower zoom levels)
  * I think most of the road types (primary, secondary, trunk) etc
 might be completely off, including the link roads.  Please send me any
 specific instances or comments on this
  * No attempt made to support anything like turn restrictions or
 relations since this was missing from the original dataset

If you see POLYLINEs with type 0x19, these would be turn restrictions
in the Garmin format, and if you see POLYGONs with multiple DataN
(e.g. Data0) elements, those would be multipolygons.  When I made my
conversion script, before I discovered the multipolygons, I saw
missing objects, like the rivers you notice are missing, which makes
me wonder whether they're coded as multipolygons and not getting
converted.

It would be interesting to make the script you used emit some info of
the number of objects that have not been converted.

http://repo.or.cz/w/ump2osm.git has the script I use for converting
the MP format to .osm, I took the approach to error out on unknown
object types to make sure every bit of information gets converted.  It
has some smart bits like figuring out the class of a roundabout based
on the classes of roads that meet the roundabout, converting address
information (housenumbers, etc), assigning layers (bridges, tunnels),
etc. but I don't know how many of these features were specific to the
dataset I dealt with and how many were part of the garmin format /
Polish Map format.

Turn restrictions are especially painful to add to converted data
afterwards compared to adding during the conversion.

[OSM-talk] The future of bugs in OSM

2009-07-01 Thread SteveC
I've been thinking a bit about how bugs work in OSM.

I really like the way OSB works

http://openstreetbugs.appspot.com/

But it's closed source afaik and doesn't have an API. It uses human  
input. new OSB is cool and tries to fix some of this

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Emka/new_OSB

I like keepright

http://keepright.ipax.at/

But it's more automated.

Here's my vision for how bugs should work.

You go to http://bugs.openstreetmap.org/

There's a big map of bugs which looks similar to OSB. It doesn't know  
who you are and drops you in to beginner mode which shows bugs that  
are relevant to you - human entered stuff say. There is an  
intermediate mode which shows a slide which, when slid, shows more  
bugs. So at the low end human entered stuff, but at the high you get  
every single fixme from OSM. Then there is expert mode which looks  
like keepright, and you can click various things on and off.

How do you enter bugs? There are two ways. As a human on bugs.osm.. 
www.openstreetmap.org 
  you can click a little green plus like OSB has on the map, or  
potlatch will let you do it too.

But, and this is key, it also has a RESTful API for mass uploading of  
bugs.

We need to do two things - unify the various bug systems and expose  
more of the bugs.

To give you an example there are tons of bugs in the US, but there is  
no systematic way to fix them, or even begin fixing them. There are  
some good HOWTOs on the wiki on the actual individual details of how  
to fix a bridge connected to the road beneath it, but no big list of  
such bridges or where they are. We need to make this systematic.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/TIGER_fixup/Over_Connectedness

Why is my system better than OSB or keepright?

OSB with a simple API might fly, but it's not open and not quite part  
of OSM. Keepright kind of gets there but the barrier to entry is high.  
If I want to do an import and list bugs to check, or I want to write  
my own little maplint utility to check for X or Y or Z I have to learn  
whatever language keepright is in and start hacking against a large  
codebase. Instead, bugs.openstreetmap.org would offer a really simple  
REST api to throw bugs at.

I envisage it as a sort of clearing house for bugs. It will quickly  
become very useful for lots of people writing small, loosly-joined  
tools. The barrier to me writing a small bug app is low. I imagine all  
sorts of little apps writing things to submit bugs much as keepright  
or maplint sort of do now. All they have to do, is run a script to  
report the bugs from planet every week (or whatever) and keep track of  
the bug IDs and see if they're closed yet.

Now on the output side I think there is a huge amount of potential.

Right now people don't know where to start fixing things. You can  
point people at OSB but that is human only, or you could point them at  
keepright or maplint but then you have to fight to maintain those  
things. Instead, bugs.openstreetmap.org would be a central clearing  
house which everyone can submit to and use.

To go back to that example, if someone writes a script to find all  
freeways in the USA which connect at right angles to residential roads  
and submits them through the api to bugs.openstreetmap.org then you  
have a big dataset. It becomes super fun, cool and easy to motivate  
the community and say - hey lets fix all those bugs in the US. You can  
draw graphs of the number of bugs being eaten up, show progress, make  
a leaderboard... all the things that will motivate a *lot* of people  
to fix these things. It will be so cool to be able to have many people  
working on closing bugs, I'd make it my number one slide in every talk  
I go to, saying go to bugs.openstreetmap.org and enter or fix a bug  
maybe I should already with OSB.

Now, you can of course just write a standalone app to do that freeways  
in the US a bit like keepright is a standalone app, but having it work  
for that, then someone else enters all the bugs in Spain that they're  
interested in, someone else when they import the next GNIS or  
something, adds bugs against all the imported PoIs that they need to  
be checked, other people can just enter bugs they see it becomes a  
very powerful system. All it needs is a little REST api.

And what's doubly great is that it's basically a weekend, if that,  
project to get started and do the simplest pieces. Then we can iterate  
it from there.

Thoughts?

Best

Steve

Re: [OSM-talk] The future of bugs in OSM

2009-07-01 Thread Renaud Martinet
I think there was some talk about that last year (march or june) when
OSB appeared. If I remember, people liked the interface because it's
rather nice and it lowers the entry level. So more people submit bugs
and eventually also fix them, we get a better map and all is well.
But it has also been said that we need advanced features, similar to a
software bugtracking application. There was even some suggestions to
adapt Trac to map bugs tracking but it sounded awkward and probably a
bit complicated.
Anyway we need the same core features but we could also have feeds so
people can monitor new bugs in their area and then go fix them, things
like that that will make people take action because they feel pride in
keeping their area bug free. Pretty much like people monitoring
articles on Wikipedia.
The API is essential in my view so we can have one day applications
running on car GPSes that will help people report bugs when
travelling. So then we beat Tomtom's Mapshare on the very same idea
they ripped off from OSM :)

Remember when reading this page, that it is dealing with the physical. The
route relation will still handle the routing around network, with specific

I'd still recommend the 'casual/non-rendered/non-processed' tag (ie.

 Try the PHP bulk uploader :-D
 
 

The PHP bulk uploader does indeed fine if all you want to do is upload
*new* nodes.  It causes duplicates if you try uploading existing data.
The PHP uploader may need modifying slightly to handle curl not liking
the OSM API, ie.

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Expect:'));

needs prepending to the other curl_setopt lines.  (For some reason
my svn client has decided it is unable to give diffs any more)

Have you asked your provider lately about IPv6 address space? Most providers 
seem to be setting up IPv6 silently and/or more proactive lately when it comes 
to IPv6.

Alternatively you can get a free tunnel from he.net, and he.net routes are in 
some cases better than IPv4 equivalents...

I think the bulk_upload.py script doesn't show the error message given
by the server (it would tell you what exactly is wrong with the
changeset and you could fix it then).

I have at http://www.openstreetmap.pl/balrog/bulkupload/ a bunch of
utility scripts for bulk uploading, which do show the exact error
message.  They are a little lower level than the scripts currently in
svn so I was thinking whether I should ask for an account and put the
scripts in the SVN beside the existing upload scripts there.

Features:
upload progress indication,
splitting changesets into smaller changesets

If the file doesn't need to be split, to upload an .osm file you'll
just need to convert it to a changeset by calling
./osm2change.py pas_osm.osm

and upload with:
./upload.py pas_osm.osc

[OSM-talk] Second Grand State Of the Map Poetry Competition!!

2009-07-01 Thread Mike Collinson
A really important poetry event that I almost forgot about.  

SOTM 2009 is almost with us and over 200 people coming.  201 if you have 
forgotten to register.

Last year we had some great Limerick poems for the Limerick State Of the Map 
Conference. This year, the format is the Haiku.

Contributions to this list or to 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/State_Of_The_Map_2009/Poetry_Competition 
welcome.

The winner will be announced during the conference and will receive a year's 
supply of free air.


Simple rules:

- Use three lines of up to 17 syllables; 
- Allude to a season of the year (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kigokigo); 
- Something to do with OpenStreetMap, maps, mapping, open data licenses,  
potlatch, your favourite tag, high visibility jackets ...

As last year, three categories:

- Haiku you would show your mother and that she just might understand. 
- Dubious Haiku that you certainly would not show your mother. 
- Obscure jargon-ridden Haiku that no-one except hard core OSM mappers would 
understand.

[OSM-talk] How to merge relations ?

2009-07-01 Thread Carsten Nielsen
It seems that the Danish National Cycle Network 8 has been put in two
seperate relations
(208282 and 131762).
What is the easiest way to merge those two relations ?
They only have 129 and 180 members so it would be possible to merge
them manually, but
I expect this is a more generic problem so there is probably a simpler
solution.
I thought that I could use them both as members in a third relation, but
I could not figure out how to do that
with JOSM or potlach.

Any advice ?

Well we're largely dependent on UCL (and Bytemark to a lesser extent)
being able to allocate us IPv6 addresses for our machines.

Have you asked ?  (this year, not in the Dark Ages)

Nearly all academic/unisversity networks support ipv6 (nl ,be, ch, de, fr, at,

Openstreetmap is a very progressive project and it does not fit, if we are the 
last member of the ipv6-internet.


bytemark has some infos to this topic:

Also ucl is involved with projects in ipv6.

Re: [OSM-talk] The future of bugs in OSM

2009-07-01 Thread Tom Chance
Steve,

All good ideas, as data becomes ever more densely and confusingly packed (just 
open Potlach in a completed Germany city!) the OSB site offers a nice way for 
Human Beings to get involved. Three thoughts:

1 - Being able to show which logged-in users submitted bugs would be a great 
help for me. I have a couple of people who add OSB bugs for street numbers and 
other minor fixes and since I trust them I put that data straight in when they 
put their name to it without having to go out and check, but accounts of 
course make it much more trustworthy.

2 - Further down the line people should be able to attach photos, as I'd love 
to do something like a call for random people to submit cycle parking / street 
numbers where I can't trust their word but could trust a well taken photo, and 
(related to 1) could contact them if it's unclear.

3 - Make it easy to integrate with other web sites, e.g. we nicked the Mappa 
Mercia OSB stuff for http://map.oneplanetsutton.org/openstreetbugs.html

Cheers,
Tom

 I've been thinking a bit about how bugs work in OSM.

 I really like the way OSB works

   http://openstreetbugs.appspot.com/

 But it's closed source afaik and doesn't have an API. It uses human
 input. new OSB is cool and tries to fix some of this

   http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Emka/new_OSB

 I like keepright

   http://keepright.ipax.at/

 But it's more automated.

 Here's my vision for how bugs should work.

 You go to http://bugs.openstreetmap.org/

 There's a big map of bugs which looks similar to OSB. It doesn't know
 who you are and drops you in to beginner mode which shows bugs that
 are relevant to you - human entered stuff say. There is an
 intermediate mode which shows a slide which, when slid, shows more
 bugs. So at the low end human entered stuff, but at the high you get
 every single fixme from OSM. Then there is expert mode which looks
 like keepright, and you can click various things on and off.

 How do you enter bugs? There are two ways. As a human on bugs.osm..
 www.openstreetmap.org you can click a little green plus like OSB has on the
 map, or
 potlatch will let you do it too.

 But, and this is key, it also has a RESTful API for mass uploading of
 bugs.

 We need to do two things - unify the various bug systems and expose
 more of the bugs.

 To give you an example there are tons of bugs in the US, but there is
 no systematic way to fix them, or even begin fixing them. There are
 some good HOWTOs on the wiki on the actual individual details of how
 to fix a bridge connected to the road beneath it, but no big list of
 such bridges or where they are. We need to make this systematic.

   http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/TIGER_fixup/Over_Connectedness

 Why is my system better than OSB or keepright?

 OSB with a simple API might fly, but it's not open and not quite part
 of OSM. Keepright kind of gets there but the barrier to entry is high.
 If I want to do an import and list bugs to check, or I want to write
 my own little maplint utility to check for X or Y or Z I have to learn
 whatever language keepright is in and start hacking against a large
 codebase. Instead, bugs.openstreetmap.org would offer a really simple
 REST api to throw bugs at.

 I envisage it as a sort of clearing house for bugs. It will quickly
 become very useful for lots of people writing small, loosly-joined
 tools. The barrier to me writing a small bug app is low. I imagine all
 sorts of little apps writing things to submit bugs much as keepright
 or maplint sort of do now. All they have to do, is run a script to
 report the bugs from planet every week (or whatever) and keep track of
 the bug IDs and see if they're closed yet.

 Now on the output side I think there is a huge amount of potential.

 Right now people don't know where to start fixing things. You can
 point people at OSB but that is human only, or you could point them at
 keepright or maplint but then you have to fight to maintain those
 things. Instead, bugs.openstreetmap.org would be a central clearing
 house which everyone can submit to and use.

 To go back to that example, if someone writes a script to find all
 freeways in the USA which connect at right angles to residential roads
 and submits them through the api to bugs.openstreetmap.org then you
 have a big dataset. It becomes super fun, cool and easy to motivate
 the community and say - hey lets fix all those bugs in the US. You can
 draw graphs of the number of bugs being eaten up, show progress, make
 a leaderboard... all the things that will motivate a *lot* of people
 to fix these things. It will be so cool to be able to have many people
 working on closing bugs, I'd make it my number one slide in every talk
 I go to, saying go to bugs.openstreetmap.org and enter or fix a bug
 maybe I should already with OSB.

 Now, you can of course just write a standalone app to do that freeways
 in the US a bit like

 We need to do two things - unify the various bug systems and expose  
 more of the bugs.

I believe that the types of bugs one can look for are quite different. 
You'd have to build a very good system if it is to be able to capture 
all kinds of bugs - don't think that simply having something like 
lat/lon/text is enough, because some bugs might be relevant for a whole 
area, or you might have a two nearby streets share the same name bug 
which points to two ways rather than one location, etc etc

Not saying it can't be done but if you want to replace the various bug 
systems then you need to be able to do what they can do or it is a step 
backwards.

I'm also wary of the centralistic let's set up a database and have 
everyone upload their data to us approach. Maybe keeping true to your 
clearinghouse idea the central service should *only* know that there 
is some other service that has found a bug in a certain location, and 
when the user wants to know more, the other service is interrogated 
through an API. The other service might, for example, guide the user 
through an automatic fixing process for certain types of bugs, or offer 
things like find similar bugs in the vicinity or so. Plus, every coder 
could contribute to something like that in the language(s) he prefers, 
and without having to ask for his functionality to be included in some 
central service.

I don't like talk about mapping. I map. (as far I understand the hot discussed 
map features.)

Discussions about Ipv6 is not wasted hot air. It is related to osm, because 
osm should be based on it, but isn't. It shoud simply be done, then is no

Using Mapnik tiles as an indicator of what's in the database could
lead to a lot of unnecessary bugs or points of interest being added.
For instance, in downtown Clemson, SC [1], the Subway has been mapped,
but doesn't appear on the map because of the labling of T.D.'s.  One
shouldn't always have to be removing duplicate bugs/POI.  Before the
interface adds a POI to the database, perhaps it should query a
bounding box around the reported area and see if there's a similarly
placed node that they'd like to edit the position of or tagging
instead of creating a new node.

Taken from the german 'puter zine c't current edition 14:

There are not enough IPv4 adresses for Africa and Latin America already 
which is why they are assigning IPv6 only already. Now with the new east

[OSM-talk] Ensuring Cyclewyays/Footways are routable?

2009-07-01 Thread simon
I had a little play with Cloudmade's routing stuff and it wasn't quite
working for me.

http://maps.cloudmade.com/?lat=51.103306lng=-114.079413zoom=15directions=51.10050375773113,-114.0750789642334,51.10594712658125,-114.08280372619629travel=footstyleId=3697

Both foot and cycle routes take a long way around (car goes even further
thought an 'access=bus' section).

How often is the route database updated? Cycle way through path was last
edited around the 19th June, but is not used in the route.

Also in realality the park is also routeable, one could just walk up
Trafford Ave and over a bit of grass. Is it possible to tag so this can
happen?



And on this one, it routes the bike slightly further:
http://maps.cloudmade.com/?lat=51.118516lng=-114.048493zoom=16directions=51.11576782135306,-114.04864311218262,51.12080533765644,-114.04978036880493travel=bicyclestyleId=1714

If the start/end points are moved slightly it permits foot/cycles to go
both ways so it's not a tagging thing. What's going on?

Cheers,
Mungewell.

2009-07-01 Thread maning sambale
After a bit of sleep, I was able to do it with the
http://www.openstreetmap.pl/balrog/bulkupload/ utilities.
The data was not uploaded because it has a way with 4000 ++ nodes.
The upload.py reported this error so I was able to edit the data in
JOSM.
Personally, I prefer to upload everything via JOSM because it updates
the OSM file to include the assigned node/way ID.

 Any advice?

 I think the bulk_upload.py script doesn't show the error message given
 by the server (it would tell you what exactly is wrong with the
 changeset and you could fix it then).

 I have at http://www.openstreetmap.pl/balrog/bulkupload/ a bunch of
 utility scripts for bulk uploading, which do show the exact error
 message.  They are a little lower level than the scripts currently in
 svn so I was thinking whether I should ask for an account and put the
 scripts in the SVN beside the existing upload scripts there.

 Features:
 upload progress indication,
 splitting changesets into smaller changesets

 If the file doesn't need to be split, to upload an .osm file you'll
 just need to convert it to a changeset by calling
 ./osm2change.py pas_osm.osm

 and upload with:
 ./upload.py pas_osm.osc

 Hi,

 These are all new nodes and ways (protected area boundaries) converted
 from a shapefile using polyshp2osm.py.
 I did manual modifications using josm but since josm has limits for
 each changeset, I tried th bulk_upload script.

 Another weird thing is:

  node id='-4' action='modify' visible='true' version='0'
 lat='11.1185' lon='119.196' /

I think the problem is that it has action=modify.
Node id=-4 isn't a real node id so that node isn't yet in OSM. 
bulk_upload.py sees the action=modify and takes that to mean that it 
should upload the node as a modification, when it really needs to upload the 
node as an add.

If you strip out the action=modify I think it will work.

I'm not sure if bulk_upload.py is doing the correct thing on a 'modify' with 
a negative node number or if the node id should take precedence over the 
action.

with only an  -record or with  and A -records pointing at
the 6to4 -address associated with the current IPv4-addresse(s)
to let users and admins experiment without causing any issues

It is automatically anycast-routed to the nearest 6to4 -server.
Probably at the ISP, if not then at the nearest IX and it DOES

come up with better accuracy.

The data could be used in a copyright case to protect OSM.

[talk-au] JOSM upload woes: placeholder ids must be unique for created elements

2009-07-01 Thread b . schulz . 10
I'm getting the above error message (code 400) when trying to upload my latest 
set of edits. Any ideas how to get around it or fix it? JOSM doesn't give any 
feedback as to which placeholder ID is causing the error etc.

Googling the error message just gives a page with source code which handles the 
exception.

Please don't tell me the edits need to be done again :p.

Ok, was a bit hasty there. Turns out I had a no-right-turn relation with 6 
members because each member was added twice. Fixing that (ie, deleting the 
repeated members) fixed the problem and the chanset closed :).

I guess that's why they're testing it, for usability as much as a method/means 
of storing all sorts of meta data within the framework of OSM.

 .using the validator plugin

   
Hi John,

I originally loaded the Validator plugin using the JOSM interface and 
then I enabled it in the plugins menu.

I use it to check all of the data I download, usually before I start 
editing and then again before I upload my work. It's incredible what 
little errors I'd manage to miss, that it finds and highlights for me !!

Tips:
1. Make sure the validator plugin is loading (see image)
2. Ensure no nodes or ways are selected in JOSM
3. Click the Validate button
4. Get results in the validator pane (see image)
5. In the Validator pane, click the particular folder (in this case 
Warnings/Unnamed Ways) or individual sub items to highlight them in the 
main window in yellow (see image)
6. Where you have a full screen with lots of different errors, right 
click an item to zoom to problem

I hope this helps.

Cheers,

Rick

 Gympie has lots of unnamed ways, a number

Indeed I get 288 unnamed way errors when I do a generous area
download around Gympie QLD. (Including unnamed roundabouts which I've
written about before as a bugbear)

Something must not be configured correctly.

I'm using JOSM stable version 1669
Java version 1.6.0_13
and I regularly update all of my JOSM plugins using the
preferences/plugins/update button within JOSM.

Here's a screen capture of my Data Validator configuration page

 There is an ignore file for the validator - you can tell it
 to ignore
 certain types of errors.  It's a text file in the
 plugin area, I
 think.  You may have accidentally added streets to
 that, it easy to
 do.  There may be a setting to reset it, I forget, or
 just delete it.
 Somewhere in the docs it's mentioned, but it is obscure.

That was it, I don't even remember ignoring it but yea, deleted the ignore file 
and they all show up now.

I hope you will share such valuable information should you happen upon a 
method! .. those roundabout false-positives drive me nuts !!

That aside, I find the JOSM Validator plugin a truly valuable piece of 
software for working with OSM data.

I downloaded the plugin code, kind of figured out where to stick some code to 
do it, but then I have no idea how to rebuild it so I emailed one of the 
authors.

 Does anyone know if someone provides a Tagwatch excerpt for just Australia?

I'm guessing not !

My thoughts are that actual tag use and combination statistics are as 
valuable (or more valuable) than theoretical tag suggestions. At the 
very least, discussions on tags used in Australia can be based on 
current actual usage.

Is anyone interested in looking at configuring the script to work with 
an Australian OSM excerpt? (such as the daily extract at 
http://osmaustralia.org/osmausextract.php)

I have no experience with Perl scripting but can find hosting for the 
website to make it available to everyone.

I see that the main Tagwatch site ( http://tagwatch.stoecker.eu/ ) 
hasn't updated since 11th June 2009, so the script could be broken with 
implementation of the API 0.6

I'd be happy to work on this as a side project with any other interested 
(especially script skilled) people.

Cheers :)

If you attempt to download it other than clicking on the button you do not

Just downloaded it and its 102mb.
