Re: [talk-au] Geoscience NATMAP 250K Topo Maps
Ah, thats good news Paul. Back when I was using it (the ECW library or SDK) you got the C code under a restrictive license (fair enough) from ER Mapper. But they withdrew that and said it would be re-released as a Windows only precompiled module. No use to Linux user All a long time ago, glad the situation has improved.

There's still an ECW plugin for GDAL. It requires the third-party SDK and you'll have to compile gdal yourself, which is annoying. Creating ECW files is what takes purchasing a license. If there's ECW files where it would be beneficial to host them, I could do or someone else could.

Re: [talk-au] M31 at Holbrook
Hi Arthur, You may get a response here, but unfortunately only a small percentage of editors subscribe to the talk-au list. You may have better luck contacting a few people who have edited locally via OSM, and asking them to check on your work. Next time, you need to get a dashcam, to refresh your memory! Ian.

I get extremely good correlation all the way with the exception of the new Holbrook by-pass. I was wondering if we should get some local confirmation before making the changes to the map as some other local streets are affected?

[talk-au] data.qld.gov.au explicit permission request
Hi everyone, My apologies if this has already been posted but I've just sent off a request to data.qld.gov.au for explicit permission to incorporate and publish their applicable datasets. I've provided them a link to the SA Government response to the same permission request so I hope it is just a formality that one of their legal eagles can complete. SA Link provided to them: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Attribution/sa.data.gov.au_explicit_permission I'm pretty new to OSM and figured I'd better not waste my effort already expended by not having this type of permission supplied. I know that the whole dataset is CC-BY-3.0 AU so I'm not even sure if my request is required (but I figure there is no harm in seeking it). -- Cheers, Jason ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

They are at http://www.ga.gov.au/products/servlet/controller?event=PRODUCT_SELECTIONkeyword=natmap but I don't see the benifit in hosting them when GA already do a pretty good job at this. If your application doesn't support z/y/x then patch it, and if you can't it would be much simpler to just proxy the GA tile server to give a z/x/y endpoint.
