[Talk-ca] Carleton University Mapathon

[Kent Jacobs]

Hello all!

 

I am a Masters of Science student in the Geography department at Carleton 
University studying Quality Assessment of OSM data for my thesis. I am also 
currently employed at Employment and Social Development Canada as a Geomatics 
Technician where I have been promoting the use of OSM data within the 
department. 

 

I discussed the idea of a possible mapathon at Carleton University with 
Statistics Canada, the Carleton Geography department and Mapbox. I am reaching 
out (similar to Tim’s post above) to find additional OSM mappers to assist us 
with the mapathon. I am fairly experienced with OSM myself but I have never led 
a mapathon event. I am aware of COMS2200 issues with contributions and do not 
want a repeat of this.  I believe focusing on the OSM Canada Task Manager and 
rural/remote regions will help avoid poor contributions.

 

Any help is much appreciated!

 

Regards,

Kent

Maybe someone should put a comment on the features so that we avoid rehashing 
it in the future. :)

 Hi,

noticed a few funny trail names in this region near Vancouver:

 https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/49.3365/-122.9791

 Quote possible they really *are* called "Severed Dick", "Shorn Scrotum",
 and "Cunt Buster", in which case they're of course totally legit to have
 on the map, however I've come across some made-up names like that in the
 past too. Maybe someone can check.

  I think if somebody did a search of the Talk-ca archives you will find these trail names were previously discussed here. I have never visited these trails but the names ring a bell in my memory and the Talk-ca list is the only place I would have an opportunity to hear about them. Bernie.

Unfortunately does names seem legit for that type of mountain bike trails,
these are not the first mountain bike trails names I've seen with those
types of names.

Seems like source of these edits come from a reputable editor.

Re: [Talk-ca] Severed Dick

[Charles Basenga Kiyanda]

As others have said, mountain bike trails can have surprising names for
those not in their community. (I'm not a mountain biker, but the same is
true for rock climbing routes.)

This community website has the c-buster trail at about the same
location. There is a note that this trail is unsanctioned. It doesn't
mean that it doesn't exist, but probably that the park where it's
located doesn't recognize it as an official trail.

https://www.trailforks.com/trails/c-buster/


Severed D also exists on the same website:

https://www.trailforks.com/trails/severed-d/


My guess is that the names are real. To be absolutely sure, one would
have to contact a couple mountain bike shops in the area.

These are almost certainly moutain bike trail names, which run from the
merely childish to the fully disgusting.

Re: [Talk-ca] Severed Dick

[Begin Daniel]

Terrible names indeed! 
Google provides pictures of those terrible bike trails but as I am not a BC 
resident, I can't be sure they are actually named that way :-)

Hi,

   noticed a few funny trail names in this region near Vancouver:

https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/49.3365/-122.9791

Quote possible they really *are* called "Severed Dick", "Shorn Scrotum", and 
"Cunt Buster", in which case they're of course totally legit to have on the 
map, however I've come across some made-up names like that in the past too. 
Maybe someone can check.

Bye
Frederik

Hello OSMappers,

 

I am Tim Elrick, heading the Geographic Information Centre at McGill. I am 
involved with organizing a mapathon at McGill in Montreal in OSM Geo Week in 
November. I am reaching out to you to find local experienced mappers to support 
us in the mapathon (I followed the discussion on talk-ca in the last couple of 
weeks).

 

It would be great if someone could get me in touch with local OSMappers? (My 
idea was to go to the next OSM event in Montreal; however, unfortunately, it 
seems too close to OSM Geo Week, to start the contacts only then.)

 

Beside the mapathon, McGill students who worked as volunteers at the last HOT 
summit are currently setting up a mapping group (OMG McGill, Open Mapping Group 
McGill). They slowly want to build up OSMapping expertise to work on HOT tasks, 
Building Canada 2020 tasks as well as adding to OSM in Montreal. The group 
would appreciate to have a contact to established OSMappers here as well.

 

Thanks a lot!

 

Best wishes,

Tim

I think Pierre is a good contact for the local Montreal group.
