Re: [Talk-GB] New VectorMapDistrict comparison maps on ITO Map

One thing that I would find useful would be an 'Edit' button that would open the same view in Potlatch2 to help correct little issues easily (like some of those roads with odd kinks in because I had moved a node accidentally etc.). There is an easy link to OSM from a tool at the top right of the map; you can click that and then click edit on the OSM map. Is that what you are looking for or are you wanting a direct link to Potlatch? We do have lots more on the way btw, including clickthroughs for individual features. Peter Graham.

There are 7 new maps: two comparing roads in OSM with those in VMD (one highlighting omissions in VMD and the other from OSM), and also maps comparing railways, electricity, water, woodland and building data in the two map bases. The version of VMD we are using is probably not the most recent and we are also aware of some odd times on zoom 8. We will ensure that we using the latest VMD within the next few days and will be taking a look at the problems with zoom 8. In the mean time I hope it is useful. http://www.itoworld.com/map/group/21 These maps use our new ITO Map interface with a place search and sharing options which we rolled out last week.

[Talk-GB] VMD - coastline comparison map on ITO Map
I have just added a new coastline VMD comparison map to ITO Map which focuses on high water, low water from VMD, coastline from OSM and also tidal and non-tidal rivers. http://www.itoworld.com/map/189 I have also made some adjustments to the VMD - Water comparison to align the colours and symbols between the maps. This map seems to raise some tagging issues, particularly to distinguish between beaches which are above the high water mark and which are below them. These maps do not yet show areas defined using multi-polygons correctly. Multi-polygons will be supported soon.

I've no idea about coastal features like that. Good question. In some places it is reasonably stable and probably worth mapping, and in others, such as along the Suffolk coast by Felixstowe the shape often changes significantly over only one winter. It will certainly be worth making a quick check along many local coastlines - For example, I have noticed that there is a point along the North Norfolk coast where the OSM coastline abruptly changes from the high tide mark to the low tide mark for no good reason: http://www.itoworld.com/map/189#lat=52.923576503032216lon=1.3321496315532069zoom=16 I also note that the 'beach' tag is only recommended for use out as far as high water (tagged with natural=coastline in OSM), but in places beaches are shown out towards low water. Should we may the surface (sand/mud/swamp/rocks etc) between high and low tide? Possibly we should use natural=beach with 'tidal=yes'? Incidentally, today I noticed that the OS 25K:1 maps show beaches, rocks etc out as far as low water and only show sea beyond that point.
