remove all tainted nodes, if necessary replacing them with new ones aligned to

unnatural straight line is enough to attract the attention of the next mapper
walking in the area.


The areas I've cleaned up I've remapped detail using Bing, confirmed names OS, 
but I've also stripped a few paths where they are obviously impractical. Same 
with streams recorded on Streetview which are no longer practical given the new 
buildings appearing on Bing. I've avoided or even replaced 'clean' simply to get 
the OSMInspector page totally clean ... then I can move on. I've few yellow dots 
left on the Malvern area, but I'll drop down and clear up Gloucester first, 
there is not much left there to do

 *and where those contributions have since been superceded or washed
 out by subsequent changes*

I think people understand this is important, but the wording is so
vague and examples of appropriate usage given on the list vary wildly.
The example you gave still allows for IP to be present in the history
of the node... *shrug*

To try and clear things up, for myself at least, can I get comment on
some contrived examples of practice I have used and I've seen used by
others? All non-odbl nodes in the examples below are deleted or no
longer existed. Most ways I've come across no longer have any
positional IP from the original creator. When commenting, please do
explain why they differ from accepted practice.

== A ==
Way V1:

railway=rail

Way Vn:

railway=rail
electrified = contact_line
frequency = 50
gauge = 1435
passenger = yes
source:electrified = observation
tracks = 4
usage = main
voltage = 25000
+
odbl=clean - presence of railway checked against recent Bing and OS

== B ==
V1:

highway=residential
name=Garden Street

Vn:

highway=residental
name=Garden Street
maxspeed=20 mph
-
name=Garden Street
+
name=Garden Street
source:name=OS_OpenData_StreetView
odbl=clean - 'notional' deletion of name attribute and re-naming with
StreetView or Locator sources

== C ==
V1:

highway=primary
ref=A38

Vn:

highway=trunk
ref=A27
name=Oxford By-pass
source:ref=OS_OpenData_StreetView
+
odbl=clean - IP exists in history but all attributes over-written

If someone rejects all those uses, then basically every odbl tag I've
added is incorrect and all those I've happened upon as well. My next
request will be for an admin to revert about 100 changesets *weeps*

This will be all the more annoying because I thought I was being
careful; I read the documentation, read examples from multiple
posters, looked at the history of every way I touched, and actually
spent quite a bit of time re-mapping many ways I came across.

Craig

 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:odbl%3Dclean

 So if there's a path, and it's not clean, you can't just clean it by
 adding the tag - that's not what the tag is for. It means that
 absolutely no trace of the original IP remains in the current version,
 and you've checked there's no residual IP. An example would be a node
 tagged amenity = pub, that happens to have been moved, the tag
 removed, and incorporated into the middle of a road junction.

 Of course, I've been advising people from the beginning to avoid the
 tag in the first place. Since so many people are misunderstanding it,
 and accidentally misusing it, it has become meaningless. Therefore I
 don't see how it can be relied upon during the license change, and if
 it can't be used with confidence, there's even less point in tagging
 anything with it.

 I ask as I am intending to do some remapping of Andy Street's paths in the
 Bishops Waltham/Meon Valley area and wondering whether I have to actually
 walk the paths again or just tag with odbl=clean

 You don't have to walk the path if you can map it using other
 techniques, such as GPS traces, Bing, OOC maps etc. Especially if you
 know the path well enough to know how it goes (e.g. it's straight
 through a particular patch of woods) then just remap it remotely.

 Andy

So, just to confirm - is it OK to use GPS traces as source material for 
remapping, even if they may have been contributed
by someone who has refused the CTs?

Reason I ask is that this precise issue came up today... damned battery ran out 
15 mins before the walk finished,
meaning I couldn't get a new trace. However I noted that it was a 
designation=public_footpath.

 Re: Andy Streets changes in Hampshire.

So I thought I should get around at least to sticking in odbl=clean on ways 
(mainly paths  tracks) I know to be OK, that I've personally been on whilst 
cycling or walking.

Which turned out to be more interesting than I thought...

First via using JOSM it was telling me some ways might have problems, the 
history check wasn't a green CT for the user 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/essjayhch.

Initially I thought odd, since they have agreed to the CTs, however checking 
their diary entry revealed they have been entering in C classifications for 
roads from Hampshire Council Council (via 
http://www3.hants.gov.uk/adoptedroadsearch/). It's not clear this is allowed - 
hence I assume essjayhch has been 'black listed' some how - but not reverted as 
I guess these edits will be removed/reverted come the license change switch. 
They also seem to have entered in many footpath refs too.

Clearly I can't stick a odbl=clean on any such way.

Next I then discover Andy Street had been also using Hampshire Council Council 
as a source reference in various changesets, such as:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/changeset/5184209
http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/changeset/8257081

Possibly this could a reason why he can not accept the CTs

In my check the other day I did not check for this type of source reference. 
This also means potentially any of his 2000 changesets could be problematic - 
so not just after 1st April 2010 for the OS Locator/Streetview allowed data.


PS Thanks Nick Austin for your efforts in Portsmouth (and all over Hampshire). 
I don't have the patience / time / willing to do that amount of remapping.

As I read it, if the nodes along the way are clean then by marking the
way odbl clean you're just checking the properties are clean... so if
it is just a highway=footway and you know it exists there shouldn't be
a problem.

If the way was created by a declining contributor then most (if not
all) of it's nodes will have been created by the same person and
therfore every node will also need an odbl=clean. Because of this I
find that for ways that are highlighted in red on OSM Inspector it is
usually faster to delete the way and re-create it from Bing and/or GPS
traces.

This also applies if a way created was clean but subsequently a
declining contributor has re-adjusted its route. Every moved node is
now tainted and requires an odbl=clean (and/or re-creating).

Incidentally I believe that the behaviour of OSM Inspector has changed
a few weeks ago. Before then it didn't always show nodes that had
problems if it was included in a way with problems. Hence an area that
was checked with OSM Inspector a while back and declared clean ought
to be re-checked for bad nodes.

You should definitely always err on the side of caution. If you add  
odbl=clean, you are making a very strong statement about all the  
contributions that made up that element. I would ask that you please go  
back and remove odbl=clean from everything you have added it to, unless you

odbl=clean is diluted by uses that are not 100% clean, it will simply be

checked that ways are in fact clean.

I've now rechecked these changes and they are all correct - some I initially 
created, but agree with the highway type tagging (previously marked 'byway' is 
really a track), one way I moved it around, and finally one which was initially 
by Nick Austin, but split by Andy Street to correct path-track part - again is 
better tagged this way (i.e. can't delete the tag just to put back in the same 
key+value)

Luckily I didn't put in many odbls, which I was planning to add more with my 
prior (mis)understanding.

I shall be extra vigilant in any future use - if I use it at all.

2012-03-19 Thread Michael Collinson
I've been invading Lancashire from Yorkshire and have got as far as 
Rochdale.


I concur with Brian's methodology. My theory is that, at this point, 
concentrated holes in the centre of towns and cities are not a bad 
thing, they may encourage new or less active mappers to go out and map 
their town. I am now focusing on primary route interchanges, (lot's of 
stray old nodes defining key junctions) and rural roads where there is a 
low probability of an arm-chair mapper messing up.


FYI, Martin's recent yes mentioned later in this thread greatly improves 
the greater Liverpool area.  He got in touch with me to say that he was 
unaware of the license change until yesterday ... so there is still 
scope for trying to contact contributors.

Re: [Talk-GB] Remapping update

2012-03-19 Thread John Sturdy
I started to work on Hampshire, but got the following request from a decliner:

I was wondering if you would mind refraining from 're-mapping' my 
contributions for the time being? I'm still in discussions  with the OSMF 
regarding re-licensing some of my contributions which come from a 3rd party 
source not compatible with the new terms.

 Obviously we hope to have concluded this work before the 1st of April 
 deadline. In the meantime the more of my contributions that are deleted means 
 more work for me to put right once we get the licensing sorted.

I think the time's getting close enough that I'll resume that work anyway.

This is almost certainly a person I had an amicable phone conversation 
with a week last Monday who is still concerned that OS open data somehow 
is not compatible with the new terms. Probability is dropping like a 
stone given the time that has passed but there is still a chance of a yes.

AIUI only a small amount of Andy Street's work (I don't see the point of
pussyfooting around, we all know who it is!) is OS-derived. And, with the
best will in the world, any monkey like thee or me can trace from OS
OpenData, but Andy's footpath surveying work is excellent and it would be a
shame to lose it because of an unrelated issue.

Would a sensible solution be for LWG and/or any other volunteers to work
with him on identifying the affected changesets; for those changesets to be
retained; and for the remainder to remain 'declined' and be dropped in early
April?

After all, at the very least, OS OpenData was only released in April 2010,
so it's actually impossible that any of his edits before then are in doubt.

2012-03-19 Thread Stephen Colebourne
Hi all,
I've just managed to track down a contributor ScottDay in Caterham and
he has just accepted the license which should greatly help that area.

I've also done a fair bit of fixing/enhancing myself in a few places
(centred around the areas I know - Wimbledon, Horsham and Seaford),
although I did manage to delete the NCN relation (no idea how, sorry
about that...)

I've been working on the main roads in south of England over the past 
few weeks. I deliberately avoided parts of Hampshire as I'd heard Andy 
Street was still considering and if possible I'd prefer people accepted 
than we remap.


However, with just two weeks left (possibly less if this continuous 
rebuild idea is going ahead and a fully ODBL map is due on 1 April) then 
I think the time has come to remap what we can.


We've been at the licence change for a long time and I'm not sure how 
something will come up in the next few days that will make a difference 
in this case, unless somebody has more info they can share on this.

Here's my manual check (taking me about 2 hours) of Andy Streets changes.

Everything before 01/04/2010 has been assumed ok, which is around 1100 
changesets.

Everything after this change has been considered:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/4281583

This is about 900 changesets.

I've grouped these into a few different categories for which could be 
considered to have OS 'issues' - amounting to around 37 changesets:

I'm not sure which one's he's concerned about (I have now asked him explicitly

I don't see any Code-Point data used, so there should be no worry there.
