Hi,
2009/7/6 Brian Prangle bpran...@googlemail.com
I've experimented with the section of the West Coast Mainline  
between B'ham New St and B'ham International: I've added a train  
(i.e service) relation with ref=WCML and also a railway (i.e  
physical) relation with ref =17.01 ( the SRS for the section of  
track) to see how it rendered in opnvkarte. I'd appreciate people's  
opinions now the render engine has caught up. Personally I don't  
like it and I think the physical stuff is better tagged on the ways;  
opnvkarte is a public transport map and should show services


My interest in infrastructure relations is not very high, the only  
reason I'm rendering them is, that there were (or maybe are) some  
service routes that are tagged with route=railway. Rendering them  
enables people to see the fault. The main focus of öpnvkarte lies on  
the service relations.


I think the problem is that we are using the term Route for at least  
two different things. Are there not reasons why one might what to  
create a relation for the West Coast Main Line 'infrastructure/ 
physical/track' or the East Suffolk Line 'infrastructure/physical/ 
track' or a particular SRS section 'infrastructure/physical/track' as  
distinct from path used by a particular rail operator or by a  
particular public transport service? Should we not provide a way of  
doing both even if both are not always populated? Why do we not  
proposed a different way of coding relations for the railways, SRS  
sections etc and ensure that these are not rendered on opnvkarte  
rather than dump the whole idea?


Personally I see this being a very useful piece of information about  
the Peterborough to Ely line and like the way the relation overlays on  
the slippery map for more detail:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/142758 (relation for  
Peter to Ely line)


I have done something similar for the Cambridgeshire Guided Busway  
which I have found very useful

[talk-ph] looking GPS POI/icons for OSM-PH garmin gps map

2009-07-07 Thread maning sambale
Hi,

Sorry for the appeal (not entirely osm related)

The next phase for my osm sub-project OSM-PH GPS map, is to create
custom icons and other styles for the map.  I am currently compiling
and creating several icons for this.

What I want is to create custom icons for Philippine POIs with the
following this basic guide:
 - very simple and easily recognizable on small screens
 - size 16 by 16 pixels
 - for commonly used icons (i.e. Parking), it should conform to
international conventions
 - brand neutral (shell, petron and caltex will use the same icon)

Several icons in my wishlist are:
 - bank with a Peso sign
 - toll booths
 - gate
 - cave_entrance
 - different icons for grocery, supermarket, shopping mall, convenience
 - vulcanizing :)
 - various public buildings

If anyone is interested to contribute (any Illustrator/Inkscape expert
here?), I (desparately) need your help.
If you intend to donate your own icons, I would like to request you to
explicitly allow a Public Domain license.  This way, we can release
the full icon set and allow others to use it.

[talk-ph] adding building address from company websites

2009-07-07 Thread maning sambale
Is it copyright violation when I look at company websites and add the
address information in OSM buildings added in Makati (most websites
have a tiny copyright notice at the bottom of the webpage)?  To
clarify, I don't want individual tenant's addy, just the building
itself.
Thanks to neilnacario the Makati CBD building footprints are almost
complete.  What's missing is address information.

disclosure:  I've been itching to add address search in the OSM-PH
Garmin GPS map, but can't simply because we lack addressing info.

Yes, recently we (OSI) asked Fedora if we could reuse their trademark  
guidelines with appropriate modifications for our (OSI) trademark (the

Subject: OSM map usage

Hi Andy,

I work as an self employed illustrator on the Isle of Wight.

I am often asked to draw illustrated maps, these are usually of a 'cartoon'
nature or are of privately owned concerns such as this example
http://www.cartoons.plus.com/ps68.htm
However, recently I have two enquirerys, one for an illustrated cycling
book and a town trail, both of which required pretty accurate maps.

Having studied the terms of use I am still unclear as to the usage of the
OSM maps. Is it the case that I can use the maps as a basis (not reproduced
as they are) for a hand illustrated map?
and is it also the case that I must give a credit to OSM and make any maps
available to whoever wants them? both of these terms seem very reasonable
to me and I'd be happy to abide by them.

I would be very grateful for some help/clarity with these issues as I
certainly don't want to infringe any rights or tread all over the good
nature of the whole project.

Regards,
Al

PS. the cycling book would be a commercial, small scale local publication
and the Town Trail is a non-profit local organisation.

Re: [OSM-talk] reconverting google mapmakers

2009-07-07 Thread Ivan Garcia
Hi all,

what I meant with my proposal is not any sort of an agreesive email to the
mapmaker users or anything like that. It's just a message telling them the
existence of OSM, their advantages over Google Maps (availability of the
nodes, open source license, good for tourism, good for local business, etc)

After writing to let's say 10 people , I realized that only 1 if 10 knew OSM
and that person had tried long time ago (3 years ago). What i mean is that
most of them they used Google Maps because they are willing to contribute
but they didn't know any other option. These guys have the spirit of OSM
mappers, so you don't need to convince them why they should map, they are
already very motivated to.

Best Regards.
Ivan.

 My guess is that in 2 years time, we will have most of the planet

 gmap people, 'cause Google already knows our map is
 better.

Maybe in your area, but speaking from experience Australia is very poorly 
mapped out except for metro areas. There is large areas that look empty but 
really aren't, there is back roads all over the place, they just haven't been 
mapped out for the most part.

The reasons for the lack of mapping is Australian Government not releasing maps 
made with public funding, poor resolution sat imagery and lack of people and/or 
resources to map them out with GPS.

 The most obvious implementation we could do would be where users visit

 we guess at a location via IP address, but it would be good (and not

 existing IP-based method if the API isn't present or if the user
 declines to authorise permission.

The trouble with that is that in all supporting browsers, the first 
thing people will get when visiting OSM is some sort of prompt. Also, I 
can imagine visiting OSM, starting to find where I want on the map, then 
noticing Oh, it wants to know where I am, clicking Sure, no problem 
and being taken _away_ from where I wanted to look.

I think a Find Me button is better UI.

 A final scenario is where the user is in motion, and wants the map to
 pan so that it 'follows' their movements.

Find Me, when clicked, scrolls to the appropriate place and adds a 
marker. It then, under the covers, keeps asking for an updated location 
and moving the marker if necessary, but does not scroll the map unless 
Find Me is pressed again.

I'd sort of expect NZ to be done before AU and CA using GPS only methods simply 
due to population to land area, AU and CA are both huge land masses with 
sparsely populated areas.

 From 1 person mapping in an area.. it grows exponentially

 they add it. :)

Yes... Everything works in theory :)

[OSM-talk] camptocamp.org data available !

2009-07-07 Thread Francois Van Der Biest
Hi all,

I just wanted to let you know that the french association
camptocamp.org [1], which is dedicated to mountain sports, is giving
us the right to digitalize data from its WMS server.
FYI, the database is worth 9750 summits, 1720 climbing sites, 1060
huts, 2100 parkings (=hiking starting points) around the world, and is
being collaboratively edited by more than 20500 users. Since June 1st,
all these data are made available under the terms of the CC BY-SA
licence [2].

From now on, you may use this URL with JOSM's WMS plugin :
http://www.camptocamp.org/cgi-bin/c2corg4osm?service=wmsformat=image/pngrequest=getmapversion=1.1.1layers=osm

Note that osm layer aggregates the layers summits, huts, parkings,
sites and routes, but you are free to use them independently too.

Each feature is represented by a small icon, and a label showing the
tags ele, name and c2c:id to use when digitizing.
A source:camptocamp.org tag should be added too when the data is
merely copied, and not interpreted.

Thank's to them for this great contribution !

 sort of license do you need?

he would need a (copyright) license to use GPL-covered work in a
non-GPL software, and this is what I guess you just gave, and a
trademark license to use a trademark that belongs to somebody else

 is your app closed-source?

I believe that the iPhone/iTunes store terms aren't really compatible
with opensource licenses, expecially copyleft ones

 just ignore the trademark stuff - no-one is going to sue you.

this is very bad advice: trademark owners are forced to sue people who
use their logo without authorization, or they risk losing it

  the only
 reason to trademark the logo (and name) is to prevent them being
 abused. the evilness / incompetence (delete as appropriate) around the
 trademark transfer shouldn't prevent you from making good use of the
 logo.

and this is why most open source communities who own trademarks have
guidelines that give automatic permission to use the logo for what is
clearly not abuse, so that people can ignore the practicalities of
requesting permission and happily use it, while keeping said trademark
safe and available to prevent abuse.

Am I right believing that after the transfer issue is resolved, we are
going to get said guidelines, and it's mostly a matter of time?

[OSM-talk] Species names (was: Potted plants vs. garden beds)

2009-07-07 Thread Ed Avis
Ed Avis eda at waniasset.com writes:

Rather than plant_type=orange_tree or similar, I think it would make more sense
to tag plants and trees with the scientific (Latin) name of their species or
hybrid.  These are already standardized and the local language translations
('citrus x sinensis' = 'en:orange', 'es:naranja') are also standard, and can 
be
looked up by the map renderer rather than duplicated for every orange tree on
the map.
 
I don't expect individual plants will be tagged very often (even the Germans
have not added the 'unter den' linden trees) but for managed forests and 
perhaps
farmland it might be useful.

I thought of mentioning zoo animals but I thought it too silly.  But look:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.50826lon=13.33929zoom=17layers=B000FTF

I think this would be better tagged with scientific names for the animals rather
than 'name' holding the local-language names.  Then the mapnik rendering rules
can be extended with little icons for penguins, polar bears and so on.  We could
even have little fish swimming in the oceans like the maps in olden days.

I'd like to map London Zoo one day so perhaps then a wiki page and vote can be
made for how to tag animal enclosures and wildlife.

Re: [OSM-talk] reconverting google mapmakers

2009-07-07 Thread simon

 I think you guys can do the same, let's try to let know the google
 mapmakers
 that there is a project similar of what they are doing named OpenStreetMap
 where their efforts will not be closed later by any company or similar.


I think that there is a certain problem with 'cold calling' anybody on the
internet raises the immediate questions are 'what's in it for you' or 'am
I being scammed'.

Contacting people is great, but you should have at least something in
common and should expect to share data.

Personally I've taken two recent actions on this sort of thing:
1). Local person here in Calgary is promoting adding footways/cycleways to
Google to improve routing. So I emailed promoting OSM and asking to swap
data (offering the stuff I have personally collected under suitable
licensing).

2). ATV group in Crowsnest Pass. I've just emailed the group to let them
know that there's a new version of OSM/Garmin GPS map which they can
download and share. Hopefully this will peak their interest to get
involved and add/correct trails in the Pass.

The key is to tread softly and don't come over too heavy
Cheers,
Simon.

IMHO mass or semi-mass mailing people that didn't subscribe to your

Re: [OSM-talk] New static-maps API - relations

2009-07-07 Thread OJ W
You can now view relations using the Static Map API.

e.g. here is one of the underground lines in OSM: http://tinyurl.com/mjcd7o

The equivalent slippy-map view is at http://tinyurl.com/klkrkl and its
main page http://dev.openstreetmap.org/~ojw/relation/ will let you
enter a relation ID.

To get the relation ID for something, try copying from a potlatch edit
session, or look the wiki for some interesing examples.

Currently this website only shows 'route'-type relations, and only
shows ways (not nodes or hierachical relations)

That was the point, at that time it was not trivial; it was an invention

Re: [OSM-talk-nl] Een toegangelijker OSM, deel 2

2009-07-07 Thread Philip Homburg
 Een routeplanner voor voetgangers, fietsers en automobilisten. De
 gebruiker kan op meerdere manieren een route samenstellen. Dat kan
 gebeuren door een tweetal punten aan te wijzen en de korste of
 snelste weg te genereren, Dat kan door gepreparereerde routes te
 bekijken en selecteren (fietsroutes, wandelroutes, etc).

Op zich ben ik het met je eens dat OSM veel te gefragmenteerd is. 

Maar wat ik zelf als een veel groter probleem zie is dat veel van de
onderliggende infrastructuur nog in de kinderschoenen staat. 

Mijn ervaring is dat op OSM gebaseerde routeplanners gewoon speelgoed zijn.
Heel leuk speelgoed, maar zeker niet betrouwbaar genoeg voor de gemiddelde
consument.

Hetzelfde geldt voor de database: het is een enorme brei met data waar je maar
moeilijk wijs uit wordt. Hoe meer POI's er in een gebied te vinden zijn, hoe
moeilijker het wordt om in JOSM (maar ook via de data layer van de website)
te begrijpen hoe de wereld in elkaar zit.

Het lijkt me heel goed om na te denken hoe OSM zo toegankelijk mogelijk 
gemaakt kan worden. Maar ik denk ook dat het belangrijk is om aan een groot
publiek alleen die delen van OSM te laten zien die echt heel goed zijn.

Om een voorbeeld te noemen, ik ben blij met de ANDNAV2 navigatie software 
voor de Android. Het is, in ieder geval van wat ik gezien heb, de beste route
software voor OSM.

Maar in vergelijking TomTom is het gewoon helemaal niets.

 De embedder stelt een eindgebruiker in staat om met een paar
 eenvoudige handelingen een kaart op de eigen website te plaatsen.
 De gebruiker moet een track bestand kunnen opgeven, of zelf punten
 kunnen aanklikken. De gegenereerde code moet volledig zijn. De
 gebruiker kan dus aan- of uitvinken of een grote of kleine navigator
 gewenst is en de licentie wordt automagisch goed getoond. Denk niet
 alleen aan websites, maar ook aan bijvoorbeeld presentaties (markeren
 van een polygoon area en dat als jpg kunnen opslaan voor gebruik
 in Keynote).

Ik denk dat dit in ieder geval een goed punt is. Zeker in Nederland is de
kaart van OSM erg goed. Hoewel er waarschijnlijk eerst wel eens door een
Nederlandse grafisch ontwerper naar het kleur gebruik gekeken moet worden.

Zelf heb ik m'n eigen scripts (zie bijv.
http://stereo.hq.phicoh.net/biking/maps/2009-06-20.shtml
voor het resultaat), maar het zou beter zijn als iedereen gemakkelijk zo'n
kaartje zou kunnen maken.

Juist. Daarom schreef ik ook:

 | Een paar van de doelen die ik mezelf zou zetten zijn het verhogen van 
 | gebruiksgemak, het verhogen van de herkenbaarheid en het verbeteren van 
 | de bekendheid van OpenStreetMap. Belangrijke middelen daarvoor zijn, 
 | IMHO, een interface die eenduidig en uniform is, die de gebruiker met 
 | een beperkt aantal heldere stappen de informatie die gebruiker wil 
 | teruggeeft en die correct is.

Het gebruiksgemak gaat over mooie buttons die op een praktische manier 
in een doordachte workflow gepropt zitten, maar ook over de informatie 
die teruggegeven wordt. Een routeplanner met een goede interface zal 
niet aanslaan als deze geen bruikbare route teruggeeft. 

En, het voorbeeld dat ik gaf was niet meer dan dat: een voorbeeld. Ik 
zeg niet dat we het zo moeten doen. Als we tot de conclusie komen dat 
routering geen optie is, laten we dan de rest wel al doen (en goed!). En 
laten we die rest zo doen dat routering er in een later stadium alsnog 
bij kan. 


Hetzelfde geldt voor de database: het is een enorme brei met data waar je maar
moeilijk wijs uit wordt. Hoe meer POI's er in een gebied te vinden zijn, hoe
moeilijker het wordt om in JOSM (maar ook via de data layer van de website)
te begrijpen hoe de wereld in elkaar zit.

Juist. Dat is dan ook een van de voornaamste problemen die ik noemde. Er 
zit veel en waardevolle data in de OSM database, maar de ontsluiting is 
een ramp. Aan de kant van de editors, maar ook aan de kant van de eind- 
gebruikers. 

Zelf heb ik m'n eigen scripts (zie bijv.
http://stereo.hq.phicoh.net/biking/maps/2009-06-20.shtml
voor het resultaat), maar het zou beter zijn als iedereen gemakkelijk zo'n
kaartje zou kunnen maken.

Ik heb al eens iets gebouwd dat mensen in staat stelt om hun GPX file op 
snelle en makkelijke manier te tonen (dat is wat je bedoelde denk ik).  
Zie https://rejo.zenger.nl/topo/embed-osm-and-track-in-webpage.php 
voor een uitleg.

Basically: https://rejo.zenger.nl/topo/osm/?fn=url-of-gpx-file;. Er 
zijn nog wel wat dingen die uitgebreid moeten worden, waypoints worden 
nog niet getoond bijvoorbeeld.

Maar, het is misschien leuk dat dat er is, meer dan een quick 'n' dirty 
speeltje is het niet. Het is gewoon weer een semi-handige interface naar 
die data van OSM. En dat is niet wat nodig is. 

Ik wil die dingen graag samenvoegen en verbeteren.

 Solide in de zin dat de database zelf niet down gaat, dat klopt (en dat is
 natuurlijk ook heel belangrijk).

 Solide in de zin dat er een duidelijk model is hoe je met OSM data om moet
 gaan is het denk ik niet.

 Een heleboel dingen moeten duidelijk nog langzaam groeien. Dat is niet erg.
 Maar je moet dan wel oppassen welke groepen gebruikers je gaat benaderen.

   
 Dat ligt niet aan de routeplanners maar aan de data. Werk aan de winkel dus!
 

 Dat klopt niet. Ik heb redelijk veel met http://yournavigation.org/ gespeeld
 (die natuurlijk gosmore als backend heeft) en recenter met ANDNAV2. En in
 beide gevallen zie je dat de navigatie software heel veel steken laat vallen.

 Ook in de data zitten veel fouten maar op route gebied is het model dan
 ook verre van compleet.

   
 De kreet OSM is hierin te algemeen. De OSM database is de kern. Die

 Ik denk dat OSM community meer moet doen dan alleen de database. Het is prima
 als de OpenStreetMap Foundation alleen de database doet, maar dan moet je
 een andere wereldwijde organisatie opzetten voor de rest.

 Juist omdat OSMF geen applicaties doet is het op sommige punten zo
 gefragmenteerd.

 Ja, ik had het over Nederland. Ik denk niet dat het veel indruk maakt als

 Voor mij is OSM al lang al een succes. Maar een beetje meer focus kan soms
 geen kwaad. Er zijn in de Nederlandse OSM community heel veel groepjes die
 allemaal wat anders doen. Op zich niet erg, ieder z'n hobby, maar het gevolg
 is wel dat het langer duurt voordat bepaalde aspecten echt volwassen zijn.

 Het alternatief is om te kijken wat haalbaar is en er dan met een zo groot 
 mogelijk groep aan proberen te werken om dat voor elkaar te krijgen.

 The JOSM developers have basically forced anyone wanting to
 use JOSM and download any plugins to upgrade, because they
 don't pull various revisions of plugins that match the JOSM
 build from their server. This is an over sight I'm sure, but
 yea, you will have to upgrade at some point due to this bug
 that no code will be back ported for, although I should file
 a proper bug about it if no one hasn't already.

I anyone is passing that way in about 3 weeks or so then there should be
some new roads, open to the public off
Torelliana Street. (Lammermoor Beach)  There were street signs erected so
once access is available, we can again trump the commercial providers by
being more up-to-date.

Also at Hervye Bay (Point Vernon) one new road is being built.( I think it

[Talk-br] Limites de bairros

2009-07-07 Thread Rodrigo de Avila
Olá,

Eu estava dando uma olhada hoje a tarde em um mapa impresso da minha cidade,
e nele tem a divisão correta dos bairros da cidade. Muitos deles a divisão é
feita nas ruas (um lado da rua é um bairro, o outro lado é outro bairro).
Isso deve ser assim em tudo quanto é lugar, né...

Agora, como faço para designar os bairros no JSOM? Até o momento, eu estou
apenas colocando um ponto, mais ou menos no meio do bairro, com place=suburb
e name=nome do bairro.

Mas, como devo proceder para separar os bairros usando as ruas? Tem como?

Grato.

Considerando que é comum haver divisões administrativas dentro de

6=municípios
8=divisões administrativas dentro de municípios, caso existam

  Einige - ich eingeschlossen - hätten dort gern ein besseres GoogleMaps.

 Ich eigentlich nicht, mir wäre das zu wenig. Meiner Ansicht
 nach orientiert sich OSM eh schon viel zu stark an
 Google Maps, weil viele ein klares Ziel vor Augen haben wollen.
Das mit dem klaren Ziel ist etwas sehr Wünschenswertes!
Dadurch bekommt ein Projekt Struktur und es wird nicht Moral und Arbeit 
vergeudet.
Auch bei meinem Opensuse Projekt gibt es Ziele (Meilensteine) auf die 
hingearbeitet wird.
Und es ist mir daher eine Freude mit Opensuse zu arbeiten!

  Heute morgen fand ich im Wiki eine wirklich geniale Seite, die das
  Zeug dazu hat: http://www.freemap.sk

 In der Gegend gibts auch eine astreine Datenqualität, die auf
 einen Datenimport aus professioneller Quelle hinweist.

Re: [Talk-de] Kindergarten

Am 6. Juli 2009 21:33 schrieb Mario Salvini salv...@t-online.de:
 was sagt den builind=kindergarten aus?

das sagt aus, dass sich in dem Gebäude ein Kindergarten befindet (das
ist auch nicht selbstverständlich, könnte ja auch der Geräteschuppen
oder die Hausmeisterwohnung sein).

 eigenltich nicht viel.
 building=pyramide oder sowas würde da schon mehr Sinn machen.

m.E. ist das dasselbe, da building nicht die Form sondern die Nutzung
ausdrückt (s. proposal advanced values für buildings für tags zur
Form).

 Zur Grundfrage. amenity=kindergarten bezeichnet für mich persönlich nur das
 Gelände. Falls da Gebäude drauf stehen taggt man die zusätzlich als area mit
 building=yes

dieses building=yes geht natürlich immer, ist aber sehr allgemein. Die
Empfehlung ist, lieber einen spezifischen Wert (falls bekannt)
eintragen. Alle Werte (leider wohl auch no) werden als building
gerendert.

 Es war eines der Probleme. Das andere Problem liegt darin, dass die Renderer 
 amenity offensichtlich nicht über landuse darstellen, wie es bei shop z.B. 
 der Fall ist. 

Hmmm, zumindest amenity=school wird hier problemlos über
landuse=residential dargestellt. Alles ohne layer-Angabe.

Hi,

 Da bist du schon nach Österreich gerutscht und der dortige Detailgrad 
 kommt vom Plan.at-Import:

Der, wenn man talk-at Glauben schenken darf, alles andere als gut bei 
den Mappern ankam, zumindest beschweren sich dort viele ueber 
Abweichungen von 100m und mehr etc. (andererseits ist es in .at 
vermutlich auch nicht anders als in .de, und die Leute sind schnell 
dabei, auf der Mailingliste zu schimpfen ;-)

 pub ist nunmal der englische begriff fuer kneipe, und in deutschland ist ein
 irish pub auch nichts anderes als eine kneipe eines bestimmtes typs.
 ganz einfach zu taggen:

 in einem hierarchisch basierten system z.B. so:
  leisure = pub.irish

 oder konventionell z.B. so:
  leisure = pub
  pub = irish

 damit findet jeder, was er sucht.

das war ja ein Beispiel mit dem Pub. Der Typus Pub ist ein leicht
anderer als der Typus Kneipe, mehr wollte ich damit nicht sagen. Klar
sind die Unterschiede hier noch gering, aber wenn Du weltweit
nachsiehst, wirst Du durchaus wesentlich größere Unterschiede
feststellen, wo man bestimmte Dinge nicht mehr gleichsetzen kann, ohne
Missverständnisse zu provozieren.

 in jedem land der welt sollte es läden geben, in denen es irgend eine art von

ja, z.B. Supermärkte? Oder Restaurants? Würde man die dann als Bäcker

Laden und Speichern in einem Texteditor behebt das Problem. Ist scheinbar 
ein Nullbyte zuviel drin.

hmm ... die Ortsnamen werden von den Symbolen verdeckt :-(

Ich finde das mit dem fully mapped in Karlsruhe *total* irreführend.
Wenn ein Newbie dazu kommt denkt dieser, dass dort wirklich alles
erhoben wurde.
