Hi, I know a student very interested by developing OpenStreetMap software during this summer : me ! I've already send a mail to Graham Jones to talk about my situation : I never contribute to OpenStreetMap. I have always use it, the city where I live (Grenoble, France) has a lots of interesting tags : all bus stations, ski piste, hiking routes... and i have done some tests with my OpenMoko. I am a newbie in developing OSM apps, so I can't do a good proposal. In the wiki there is a project about a webservice for shapefiles[1]. This project has no student who wants to get involved for now. This project is : 1) conversion shp=>osm (already done) 2) a webservice to do 1) 3) osm=>shp 4) a webservice to do 3) I'm interested by this project. Should I open a thread to talk about it (I have some questions about the languages that I should use, the integration with the "export" tab...) ?
I have an another proposal : the no-car router. I don't have a drive license, so I'm a big user of buses, trams, trains... This router has to deal with forbidden ways for walker and schedules of public transports. This web-service will use OSM data and a schedule database. Perhaps, the transit project can [2] give some useful informations. Do you think it can be a good project ? Regards, David Glesser.
