Re: [OSM-talk] Haiti street names
How often is Nominatim being updated? I am watching for an update to show up before I mark it as a 'yes' in the PaP street names table. David.

I find the main use for it is to hit it twice to make any landuse=* tags more obvious. Would appreciate a similar key to turn imagery on/off/dimmed. (And if you're in a featurey/usability mood, I would kill for a key other than keyboard-plus to add a tag. It's extremely un-ergonomic.

[OSM-talk] Haiti street names
The Port-au-Prince map is astonishing but we're short on street names in some places. I've added a 1994 US military map as one of the background layers in Potlatch. You can use this to add street names easily. Full details are at: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Haiti/Street_names but in brief: - open Potlatch - select 'Haiti: street names' and check 'Highlight unnamed roads' in the options dialogue - *important* - align the imagery (space-drag) - find a street highlighted in red - copy name from US map - repeat until complete :) Helpful keypresses: - N to go straight to the name tag (new!) - Caps Lock (when not inputting a tag) to dim ways/nodes - f2 to f6 to select different Haiti imagery layers The original map sometimes numbers streets where there wasn't enough room to fit them on the map. You can find the numbers using the street index. I've uploaded this, plus the key and list of other numbered features; links from the wiki page. Thanks to the Map Warper guys for rectifying the map and Chris Schmidt for tiling it. cheers Richard ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

When you use Potlatch with this layer and press B it will add `source=Haiti DMA Topo` to your data.
