(is there a json checker tool that looks for missing braces?)

Brilliant. Thanks for helping and providing all the steps. I think I can
manage that now that I know what to do. Will double ckeck the json next
time (is there a json checker tool that looks for missing braces?)

Thanks,
RobJN

[OSM-dev] New Imagery Layers - A plea for help

2013-10-11 Thread Rob Nickerson
Hi Dev list,

I'd like to add some more historic imagery layers for use in the main
editors. I have quite a long list of Ordnance Survey Town Plans from the
National Library of Scotland ready to go. Furthermore I am hoping to get
the OS Hand drawn maps recently discussed on the talk-gb mailing list up on
a tile server and added as an imagery layer. Finally user Blackadder has
just acquired some historic maps from Coventry University which we would
like to scan and upload.

All are out of copyright.

As a non-developer, I'm not particularly clued up for using github. As a
test case, would someone please be so kind as to add this attached
Bartholomew json (to Europe) and run the "make" script, as described at:

https://github.com/osmlab/editor-imagery-index

We have the permission of NLS to use their tile server. In fact they want
us to use this actively.

If this goes well, I'm wondering whether I can just upload the json and
have someone else run the make bit (or give me a dummies guide to github on
ubuntu) - or is that asking too much? :-)

Kindest regards,
RobJN

p.s. Thinking ahead, it may be worth adding a "date" schema to the json so
that the historical team can use this to eventually develop a slider to
select layers from a given date range.
