Hi Stellamaris,

 

I continue to have some concerns on the data and tagging, especially when 
looking at the associated photos.

 

Things such as

 

*       protected_spring with pump=yes but no sign of any pump in the 
associated image? 

*

*       Type=tap, pump=yes, fee=yes but the image looks to be an elevated water 
tank/tower?

*

*       I am struggling to understand the pump tagging when many don’t seem to 
have a pump at all and the usual pump tagging would be one of powered/manual/no

*       https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dwater_well

 

*       Does fee=yes mean that a payment is made for delivery of water to the 
site (ie piped from somewhere else or via infrastructure from others) or is it 
that an end user pays for the water when obtained from the tap?

 

Cheers - Phil

Subject: Re: [Imports] UPLOADING U-WIMP project data to osm

 

I have put the files into this public repository 
<https://github.com/StellaWava/U-WIMP-OSM-DATA>  and everyone should be able to 
access them. 

 

I have already created an import-specific osm username as directed by the 
imports wiki and I am going to follow what you and  @Andy Townsend have 
suggested testing my upload. 

Hope to return with a success alert!

 

Thank you all!

 

Best, 

Stellamaris

 am not sure I can write an import/upload process before successfully uploading 
the data

The whole point is to write the process instructions *before* you start the 
import/upload so the OSM community can review and provide feedback.  I don't 
think these instructions have to be super complicated, and if you learn 
something during the process you can augment them later with "lessons learned" 

 

I will make sure that in the guide, I emphasize that for the new mappers as 
more, I am just going to simply edit my .csv and then reconvert it to a 
geojson. 

Ok, you should share a link to the full .csv, and a link to the final GeoJSON 
file after you have made the changes.  This should be done well before the 
import/upload starts so that the community can review.

 

 

I am following the normal JOSM edit guideline 
<https://toolbox.hotosm.org/pages/data-cleaning-upload-and-quality-assurance/5.1-data-cleaning-with-josm/>
  to perform the upload.  [Downlaod data in AOI, merge, validate, upload] 

My data is just water points, nothing extra. So, I do not think I have anything 
complicated.   

 You probably can either reference those guidelines in your proposal, or 
cut/paste from it.   I don't think your process will be exactly as shown in 
those guidelines, so selectively cutting and pasting will probably be best.  
For one thing, you have one large file, and in the guidelines they are starting 
with one file per feature. 

Also,

* I believe your file is quite large, and reviewing all of those points in one 
sitting in JOSM using the todo list might not be practical.  I would suggest 
splitting the final file into more manageable chunks.

* Please make it clear in your instructions that if there is an existing well 
or spring in OSM, that you will preserve it, copy tags from the import data as 
appropriate, and delete the imported point.  You should not be creating 
duplicates, nor should you be deleting existing data in favor of the imported 
data.

* Are you doing this all yourself, or will there be people helping you?  It 
seems like a lot of data for one person to review/import.  If you are going to 
have multiple people, how are you going to keep track of who is doing what?  
The Denver building import was set up using the tasking manager, such that when 
a mapper started mapping a task they automatically got both the OSM data and 
the import data for that location.  This does require some web accessible place 
to store the import data.

* The import should not be done under your regular OSM account, you should 
create a separate account for imports (maybe you mentioned this already in your 
proposal and I missed it).

 

 

Mike
