imports@ Hi, fellow mappers!
Our import project https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Slovenia_Landcover_Import_-_RABA-KGZ is nearly ready for a start of the actual import by the community. Hopefully is is lacking just your review. If something else is missing, required, suggested, please say so as well. Most of the preparation was done by a handful of us (user gvil, coloredstone, Mark Martinec and me - StefanB), but wider community was invited for involvement several times on forum and talk-si@ mailing list during updates on the progress while getting some valuable feedback from others. http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=27289 https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-si/2014-September/subject.html https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/imports/2014-December/thread.html We prepared a website with overview of import: http://raba.openstreetmap.si/ It was initially used to inspect the data source, but it evolved from that, so it will also be used to manually trigger (via JosmRemote) import of any of 3640 squares of 2x3 km in size into JOSM (with requirement of OpenData plugin) where importer will review it, and resolve any possible conflict with existing data prior to upload. The import functionality is hidden for the time being to prevent impatient casual users from rushing things. Once the larger blank areas are filled and if the need arises for smaller squares (for easier conflict resolution) we will split the source along a smaller grid (squares of 1x1 km) It is kindly hosted on German FOSSGIS servers, along with the tilemap of the source that can be used as underlay in JOSM Source code is available at https://github.com/openstreetmap-si/raba.openstreetmap.si Some blank (or landuse-tag-free at least) areas were used for test import of limited scale a few days ago: Karst: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=15/45.4787/13.7335 Alps: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=15/46.4279/13.6791 Farmland: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/46.1345/15.5874 Some statistics from those imports can be gathered from taginfo: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/raba%3Aid#values There we even registeered our project: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/projects/raba_kgz_import If you have any questions, comments, suggestions, they will be warmly welcome. best regards, Štefan
