Re: [HOT] FW: Message OSM + points villages MSF

2014-04-20 Thread Álvaro Monares G.

Sylvie, I think you should use ArcBruTile
it's a plugin for ArcGIS Desktop 10.0/10.1/10.2.
I attach the xml corresponding to humanitarian and mapnik
as defined in [2] So maybe somebody can upload, so they are
web-accesible for others.

Best regards
Álvaro Monares G.

Thanks Sylvie for this feedback from MSF. And thanks to CartONG who 
has assured the interaction with MSF on this. I am please to read that 
this has helped the humanitarian teams in such a difficult context.


The village names file will be of great help. I will discuss with you 
about this and assure we can update the OpenStreetMap database.

Please kindly find feedback from the MSF GIS off. from the field.

To all OSM-Hot teams,
First of all and once again, we would like to send a big THANK YOU to 
every single one of you. Your work is a gift to us all in the field. 
Building-scale mapping for such an area is a huge help for our 
outreach teams, and for many expats newly arrived and needing a 
briefing on how the outbreak is evolving. Finding remote localities 
and access to them is often a race against time as a few hours can 
make a serious difference, not only for patients, but also to arrive 
in time to prevent new contacts to happen and keep the outbreak from 
spreading further. Cross-checking between local knowledge and OSM maps 
allows us to work much faster
Regarding locality names, we were able to acquire through various 
field trip with GPS devices a confirmed database of localities 
covering the sub-prefectures of Gueckedou-Centre, Temessadou-Dibo, and 
Guedembou.
Thought this might be a nice input for you guys, to come as support to 
your amazing work. This data can be freely shared as long as credited 
to MSF-CH. There might be still some minor confirmations/changes to 
make, especially in remote/inaccessible areas, but these places have 
been taken directly by GPS on the field, and confirmed with local 
inhabitants.

Hope this helps. One more time: thanks!

JG

Ok, so the "Center" actually does have a meaning then and should stay
as part of the name in the database.  We may want to tag these towns
with an additional tag and then maybe possibly remove the 'Center'
from the actual name since there would be another way to distinguish
these.  Are these actually the seat of government for the
sub-prefectures?  If so, should we tag them as such and possibly
remove the 'center' part of the name?

In most of the cases if a name contains "Center" is that it is Temessadou 
Centre in Temessadou sub-prefecture , as opposed to other villages in the same 
prefecture is calling also Temessadou.
Centre or Center : main city

Hope it helps.

Ok, I have finished merging in the names from the shapefile you sent
me.  The changeset for the merge is listed below.  I added
source=MSF-CH to both the changeset and the nodes themselves (maybe a
bit redundant but that was what I did).  The changeset consisted of
193 new place names to add, 176 existing nodes that are either moved
to a new position or had their tags changed or both (and 4 nodes I
deleted, 2 were correct 2 need to be undeleted as I seem to have
accidentally deleted them somehow).  Thanks to Paul Norman and Jaakkoh
for helping me with the undelet work.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/21788686

In total there were 358 objects in the shapefile you sent me.  I
manually checked each one and for any that had nothing at all in OSM
already I just dumped them straight in.  For the ones that already had
a name in OSM spelled identically I just merged the nodes so that the
position is taken from the MSF node and any old tags like alt_name or
the GNS unique feature ID get copied over (this lets you cross
reference your own database against the GNS database if you want).

There were about 100 or so towns which had entries already in OSM with
slightly different spellings, in these cases I just merged the nodes
and switched the OSM spelling to alt_name and used your names for the
name=* field (except for a few cases where the accenting was better on
the OSM version so I kept that in name and added yours as an alt_name).

There were about 10 or so places where OSM already had a town name but
that name was very different from the MSF name.  In these cases I kept
both nodes and added a 'fixme' and 'note' tag to explain the
situation.  Those towns can be found in the query below.  It would be
good if someone from MSF could have a look through these and see if
they can fix any of them.  The query below will pull in all of these
nodes plus all place nodes within 500 meters of them so you can see
the towns that were already in OSM that got me confused.  If you click
the 'export' button at teh top you can load the data from this
overpass query directly into josm through the remote control by
clicking the 'josm' link on the export window that pops up.

http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/36P

The only question I had was regarding some of the names you provided.
 About 10 or so had a town name followed by the word 'Center' or
'Centre'.  I am wondering if this 'Center' should be deleted from the
name or left as it is.  You can see an overpass query of these nodes
at the link below if you want to see the actual names.

http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/36R

So aside from that no major problems.  If you want to see all the
names that have been added from MSF (both in this block and the first
ones you gave us for Guekedou) you can see them at the following query:

http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/36S

Thanks for all of this data, it is really interesting to get results
like this back from the field.  Not only are your town names now
merged into a much larger database allowing your teams to more
accurately find place names by searching, but they also help us find
mistakes in our own data (there were a couple I found that the topo
maps had wrong, or that we had wrongly located), and we also get
alternate spellings on a lot of places to which makes you more likely
to find a place when you search for it in OSM.

Thanks CartONG, Sylvie and JG for your appreciation of the HOT/OSM
community support to the response to the ebola outbreak in Guinea and
surrounding countries by MSF CH, IFRC/ARC and through them WHO, Government
and NGOs.
I am translating this email in French; the actions required to make the
best use of the field-sruveyed 350 features MSF-CH localities database
shared with OSM are being looked at by some of OSM/HOT coordinators.


Merci CartONG, Sylvie et JG pour votre appréciation positive de la réponse
des communautés OSM et HOT en soutien à la réponse à l'épidémie d'Ebola en
Guinée Conakry et dans les pays limitrophes par MSF CH, ICFRC/ARC et à
travers eux l'OMS, les structures gouvernementales et ONGs. Ci-dessous, une
traduction libre/rapide de votre courriel.
Certains des coordinateurs OSM/HOT examinent le jeu de données terrain de
350 localités collectées par MSF CH et partagées avec OSM pour en faire le
meilleur usage possible.


Aux équipes/ communautés OSM et HOT,

Avant toute chose et une fois de plus, nous voudrions vous transmettre nos
vifs remerciements à chaque individu actif dans cette réponse de crise.
Votre travail est un don pour celles et ceux engagés dans la réponse sur le
terrain. Votre cartographie à l'échelle du bâti sur de si larges théâtres
d'opération est une aide immense et précieuse pour nos équipes mobiles,
ainsi que pour les nombreux internationaux récemment arrivés et nécessitant
un briefing sur la dynamique notamment spatiale de l'épidémie. Identifier,
localiser et accéder à des lieux de peuplement reculés est très souvent une
course contre le temps dès lors que quelques heures peuvent faire la
différence et pour les patients, et pour arriver à temps de façon à
prévenir de nouvelles contaminations et d'enrayer ainsi la propagation de
l'épidémie. L'utilisation conjointe des savoirs de terrain mobilisables et
des cartes OSM ou produites à partir de données OSM nous a permis de gagner
en efficacité, d'améliorer par des gains de temps l'élasticité de notre
réponse.

A propos des noms de lieux de peuplement, nous avons été acapable de
constituer à partir de données terrains collectées au GPS une base de
données consolidée de qualité portant sur les noms des localités (lieux de
peupelement) des sous-préfectures de Gueckedou-Centre, Temessadou-Dibo, and
Guedembou.
Nous pensons que cela pourrait être un apport intéressant pour le projet
OSM. ce serait notre contribution en support (à notre tour) pour votre
remarquable et étonnant travail. Ces données peuvent être librement
partagées dans la mesure où elles demeurrent attribuées à MSF-CH. Il se
peut qu'il y ait encore des modifications mineures à y apporter, notamment
dans les endroits les plus reculés et inaccessibles, mais toutes ces
localités ont été relevés au GPS et la toponymie confirmée par certains de
leurs habitants.

En espérant que cela vous soit d'intérêt. Une fois de plus : merci !

We don't have any WMS servers for any of the layers that I am aware
of.  Most of the rendered layers are accessible as a TMS tile layer,
which is what google and bing and others use.  The TMS url for the HDM
tiles is below (you will need to replace z, x, and y with the proper
values in ArcGIS I assume):

http://a.tile.openstreetmap.fr/hot/z/x/y.png

Hope this works for you.

Regarding the village names, this is awesome feedback.  I will go
through and try to match them all up with the ones we already have in
our database so we get both spellings, etc.  Any differences I will
note in the 'note' or 'fixme' tag.
