Hi all,
I just saw that the Brussels region launched a new open data portal
with many interesting datasets, including roads and road hierarchy, 3D
buildings, railways, tunnels, bus stops, bike and car sharing
stations. Even trees!
I think most of those are already known, but some seem new to me
FWIW I had the same problem in Brussels when I tried to map regional
routes as RCN (like the Canal route or the Promenade verte), as
opposed to local/communal itineraries that exist too.
Someone downgraded them to LCN because RCN was used for node networks
around the region and they probably
Hi everyone,
Great work on the pedestrian area!
I see a problem with the Delhaize Anspach object though, not totally
sure how to fix it (at least in iD, maybe it's easy with JOSM) :

Hi everyone,
Did someone took a look to the new Geoportal from the Brussels region?

It seems they link to more open data than the Urbis building shapes we have.
For example, if I search for transport in the catalogue, I

Hi all,
A few weeks ago, I was showing Brussels map to someone (OSM with
Mapquest Open style), and they made the observation that it was absurd
that Chaussée de Waterloo (N5) stood out as a major road while Avenue
Brugmann/Rue de Stalle (N261) looked like a minor artery.
I understand this comes

This is the method most people agree to and it's used internationally.
Splitting the roads into two ways for each side is a very bad idea.

As you may have noticed already, the FreeMeeting event (26 nov) has

The cooling tower at Drogenbos has nothing to do with UCB. It really

Did anyone try to contact the STIB/MIVB (public transport in Brussels)

* Theoretical schedules
