Re: [talk-ph] Reviving plan(s) for Tagaytay Mapping party
Hi guys, Let's set the meeting place to be the Starbucks in the restaurant complex here: http://openstreetmap.org/?lat=14.102179lon=120.952071zoom=18layers=B000FTF Meeting time is 9:00 am. Good? Eugene On Mon, May 11, 2009 at 12:24 AM, Eugene Alvin Villar sea...@gmail.comwrote: Hi guys, The planned mapping party is less than a week away. So let's get the planning into high gear. First of all, please confirm again your attendance by replying. Also indicate if you'll be bringing a vehicle that can be used for mapping. If you're not bringing a car, do you plan to go to Tagaytay using public transportation or would you be willing to be picked up along the way (maybe in Alabang?). Also indicate if you have any GPS devices that can be used. Hopefully we can fix travel arrangements for everyone soon. Second, depending on the available transportation, I don't think that everyone can do mapping individually so maybe we'll split the group into teams of 2 or 3 people. The number of teams will affect how we divide the Tagaytay cake. Third, we need to draw up a list of target places to map. While we can just say map as much as possible it would be best to prioritize by having a scavenger-hunt type of list of important POIs and landmarks, usually touristy in nature. Here's an initial list of possible places I cobbled together from various tourist web pages about Tagaytay: * City Hall * Picnic Grove * People's Park in the Sky * Taal Vista Hotel * Casino Filipino * Tagaytay Highlands * Tagaytay Crosswinds * Development Academy of the Philippines * Pink Sisters Convent * Divine Word Seminary * other retreat houses (Tagaytay is a popular destination for religious retreats) * Filipino-Japanese Friendship Garden * (some zoo that I visited before but can't remember what its name is) * Mushroom Burger! It would be nice if we can get extensive data for some of these places, e.g. buildings, driveways, walking paths of Picnic Grove. Here's the Maps web page of the Tagaytay City website: http://www.tagaytay.gov.ph/Maps.html Fourth, I'm volunteering to be the point contact person. (Maning famously doesn't have a cellphone so I'm not sure if he's willing to be the contact person.) If you all agree, confirmed participants should e-mail me privately their cellphone numbers. Anything else I missed? Eugene / seav On Thu, May 7, 2009 at 11:25 PM, Ed Garcia eppgar...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, E-Z Map has a map for Tagaytay City. Perhaps you can use that to divide the cake. You may want to divide it by the 4 major roads linking to the main Tagaytay road (Mendez Road, Amadeo Road, Aguinaldo (Silang Road), Sta Rosa Road. This should give 5 major areas. just a suggestion ... :) ed On Thu, May 7, 2009 at 10:56 PM, maning sambale emmanuel.samb...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I need help in slicing the cake for our Tagaytay mapping party, something like this: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/London_mapping_party Unfortunately, I can't find a good tagaytay map on the web to use a reference (even the big G don't have high-res sat image).

[talk-ph] New OSM-PH Garmin map (20090513)
To all OSM-PH Garmin users, New OSM-PH Garmin map (20090513) New OSM-PH Garmin routable map available here: http://esambale.wikispaces.com/osmphil_garmin What’s new in this release: * Data as of 20090513 * 38,400 kilometers of roads * Fixed some routing problems * Better coastlines in several areas * Fixed registry causing install error in MapSource For this release, I am very proud to say that all tools (except for making the executable mapsource installer) were in-house-developed-for-OSM-free-open-source-software. I can now create the map by gluing simple shell scripts together. Next target would be to create our own Pinoy map style (this is tough) and probably a map for Magellan users (this one is tougher) :) @ Rally and Ed, you will probably receive this message twice (here and in waypoints.ph) -- cheers, maning -- Freedom is still the most radical idea of all -N.Branden wiki: http://esambale.wikispaces.com/ blog: http://epsg4253.wordpress.com/ -- ___ talk-ph mailing list talk-ph@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph
