[OSM-talk-be] JOSM shared boundary of area

2019-03-06 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Hi,

I'm a bit in trouble with shared boundaries of area. I try to sketch the 
situation.
I have a square area and create a rectangle nearby with the same width 
and half the height, starting at the bottom right, drawing a line to the 
right, up to half the height, back to the left half way the side of the 
square and then down to the starting point. The third point is linked to 
the square side by tools - join node to way. This creates a double line 
in the boundary and you get a warning when saving.


Obvious, this is not the right way to do it:
- What should be the right procedure?
- When you have the above situation, what is the easiest way to correct 
it? There is a function to merge 2 points to 1, but is there also one to 
merge 2 identical lines?


Regards,
Gerard

It's the Metro and the MIVB/STIB uses Crainhem as official name in 
translation for Kraainem.
It is located in Brussels, so name rules of Kraainem (NL first), which 
is in the Flemish Region don't apply.

Kraainem is named Kraainem in the name and name:nl fields.

It is possible that Nominatim returns the name:fr field in case you

Here is the answer I gave on the note:

As you can see on the map, the boundary between Woluwe-Saint-Pierre
and Crainhem runs slighty left of the Rue Longue.

Since the current implementation of Nominatim (the software that looks
up the addresses), always looks at the street and never at the POIs,
there is no way to solve this with data.

AFAIK, they are working on a solution for this, but there is no
timeframe for a solution

Re: [OSM-talk-be] intersection looks very wrong

2017-11-11 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

In Streetview it looks the same.
I see this of a typical case of willing to map too much.
By that I mean every turn (or shortcut) from one lane to all possible 
others.

The crossing should look in its basic form like a #.
Is it needed to represent every lane as separate roads?
I don't think so.
Only when there is a real division in the form of a physical separation, 
other then a simple white line, such as a sideway, traffic island, 
arched surface,  ..., additional trunks should be mapped.
For all other things tagging Lanes 
 and Turning indications 
per lane 
 
should be sufficient to map this crossing.


A lot of cleanup is needed here, starting with the 2 trunks 214506429 
 and 115952062 



Regards,
Gerard.

Private driveways are also mapped in the GIS of Vlaanderen.
They are part of the mapping of every soil hardening.
Don't know the case for Wallonia.

The road itself is not in the Atlas, so the claim that it is private 
seems just.
(the crossing path Sentier Miremont is in the Atlas and thus probably 
public.)

Maybe with the renumbering of the Hm signs, it is extended?
Else, ask the mapper, where he got his information, to check if it is a

In the very beginning, there was an E3 and E5 highway, but they got 
renumbered.

I'm surprised, there is still a piece E3 existing.

(Cherbourg - Liège) has gotten the int_ref = E03 tag, while the
E03 should only be the road from Cherbourg to La Rochelle

the E46 should have the int_ref = E03 tag?

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Land-use mapping with OSM in Belgium

2017-04-25 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Hi,

One remark for the wood-tag:
The tag natural=wood 
 is sometimes 
used for forests, but since natural=wood would refers to unmanaged, 
natural forests, IMHO it should not be used in Belgium since no more 
forests are completely natural: every patches of forest in Belgium has 
experienced human interventions in the recent history.

In several forests Zoniënwoud, Meerdaalwoud, ... are some nature reserves.
Places where nature can have its course and where only very minimal 
human intervention take place (eg clearance of paths)
I think these reserves (Joseph Zwaenepoel, Kerselaerplein, Everzwijnbad, 
Pruikemakers) could qualify as wood.


I think meadow is a good tag for the grass lands. Conversion between 
farmland and grass land takes somtetimes place but mosttimes as 
incidental crop harvest of grass.

Making a pasture requires also fencing, which is not a temporary measure.

So, when there is a grass land without fence surrounded by farmland, it 
is likely farmland.

Other grass lands are usually fenced and are meadow.
Local knowledge will tell if it is to be one or the other

Regards,
Gerard.

For the Zoniënwoud, it should be observed that it is located on several 
cities and regions.
Path naming should also follow the rules for the region or city where 
they are located.

- Brussels - Oudergem, Bosvoorde, Ukkel, Woluwe : bilingual Fr- Nl
- Wallonia - Waterloo, La Hulpe : Fr
- Flanders - Hoeilaart, Overijse, Tervuren : Nl

oh .. I see , that probably goes to my google mail address, a bit of a
trashbin-mail account with massive amounts of spam hiding real messages,
I only check that sporadically

 


As for the French-Dutch. I think I added a name once to a path in
Zonienwoud, in the other order. Can't find it right now. Perhaps
someone corrected my vandalism :-)
   



The tool I made would pick that up and flag it, I only corrected about
3% (99%-96%).  It just made sense to further unify the data that way and
match the wiki page, didn't give it much thought hence failed to raise
this issue to the list.

I believe it's better this way as the former rule seemed to be a
political motivated one, and that has no place in OSM.  We should
refrain from making those types of decisions.

Like you, I don't care french is first , dutch is second, as long as it
is done consistently.  It makes the map look good.

In that regard, I am desperately looking for a quality resource on
street names in BXL, and I need one that is written exactly how it
should be written.

I used a document that was very complete but I failed to understand the
spelling rules in french language (I was always taught that capitals
aren't accented but apparently there are notable exceptions, one of them
applies to streetnames).

I was educated on the subject by Yves (bxl-forever).  I stopped my edits
at once and still need to roll back some of those accent problems, but I
need a street list first, when I have one, I can incorporate it in the
tool, that would be an awesome feature to have.

Sorry for not being more forthcoming on this, I didn't expect this
impact on us.

That Q/A tool would help you find the problem if it exists, I downloaded
zonienwoud to an osm file but it seems that a packages I use (medoo) has
been broken since I last used it.  I have to fix the source code first.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Multilingual names

2017-04-07 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Ik lees ook :
These municipalities should have the official translated names under 
name:nl =*, name:fr 
=* and name:de 
=* (depending on which 
language facilities are offered), the name 
=* tag should contain only 
the official name in the primary language. For the moment, the 
municipalities bordering Brussels also follow the naming schema used in 
Brussels (with both languages in the name tag), while the other 
municipalities have a tendency to only include a single language in the 
name tag. Do not delete translated data by following this rule. If a 
good translation exists in a dutch municipality in french, do not remove 
it. We only care for correct data, as much as possible without being 
intrusive in any way.
Ook de dubbele standaard voor de taalfacileitgemeenten rond Brussel 
lijkt mij niet aangewezen.
Ofwel doe je voor iedere faciliteitsgemeente in de name tag alleen de 
officiele taal, ofwel beiden in volgorde van officiele - faciliteit.

Planimetrische kerktorens op OSM zetten heeft volgens mij weinig zin. 
 Wat wel nuttig kan zijn is de grote signalisatie voor ondergrondse 
leidingen.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] rendering

2016-07-27 Thread Gerard Vanderveken
Ook off-line OSM kaarten en gpx-visualisatie daarop zijn mogelijk met 
een app, zoals Geopaparazzi.

Belgie neemt ongeveer 350MB op je SD.
Met je GPS zie je waar je bent op de kaart en of je nog steeds op de 
omloop bent.

Door zoomen heb je veel meer details dan de papieren map.
Er zijn knoppen om je positie te SMS'en naar vrienden en eventueel 
nooddiensten.


Met vriendelijke groeten,
Gerard

Ik ga namelijk de dodentocht doen, en mijn volgers zouden graag weten

Salut Bart et tous,

GPSVisualizer.com  doit faire ce que tu 
veux.
Mais beaucoup diront qu'avant d'imprimer il faut penser à 
l'environnement !!!
Après chargement du fichier GPX sur un smartphone, le programme OSMand 
sera non seulement capable de montrer la piste GPX sur fond OSM mais 
aussi de la suivre en mode GPS, et ce sans Internet et sans papier.
Il faut vivre avec son temps et il y a de quoi amuser les promeneurs 
en ayant en poche un smartphone qui dit "tournez à gauche" ou bien 
"vous dépassez la vitesse limitée".  Dans un magasin, j'aime lui faire 
dire "Faites demi-tour dès que possible".


Cordialement,

André.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] What could you map ? / Wat kan je mappen ?

2016-07-03 Thread Gerard Vanderveken
Het is juist dat je wel een paar keer moet klikken, alhoewel je er ook 
enkele kunt laten overslaan, door minder opties open te houden zoals een 
app vast te kiezen.
Op mijn tablet valt de snelheid voor losse geofoto's nogal mee. Ik heb 
niet het gevoel van te moeten wachten tussen het klikken.
Maar als je met de fotonota ook nog wat intypt, zakt de kadans 
onvermijdelijk helemaal in.


Aan de andere kant, je onderwerp loopt meestal niet weg!

Guy,

de plek bepalen is niet zo moeilijk. Terwijl ik wandel, neemt mijn GPS een spoor op. Bij 
het vertrek zorg ik ervoor dat ik een foto maak op hetzelfde moment als dat ik een 
waypoint creeer op de GPS. Zo heb ik een "exacte" tijd waarom ik beiden kan 
synchroniseren. Dat kan je bv.
nadien in JOSM doen, zelf gebruik ik geotag. JOSM heeft wat last met grote 
hoeveelheden grote foto's. Je kan een foto van je GPS scherm maken, maar de 
mijne toont geen seconden, een waypoint heeft dat wel en is dus iets 
nauwkeuriger. De waypoint file open ik in een gewone teksteditor.

De richting, die heb ik niet. Een smartphone kan nog wel orientatie aangeven 
bij een foto. Meestal maak ik wel foto's in de richting dat ik loop, dus van 
zodra er een stukje straat opstaat weet ik in welke richting de foto gemaakt 
is. Of ik maar er een paar zodat ik een overzicht heb van de situatie

Je hebt natuurlijk gelijk wat het gebouw betreft. (ik hoopte al dat iemand het 
nog zou aanbrengen) Daar kan je ook vanalles over mappen:
building=apartments (dus niet house of gewoon yes), building:levels=3 , 
roof:shape=flat. En natuurlijk Den Uil. Het is een taverne. Het telefoonnummer 
staart op het raam. Je kan ook nog outdoor_seating=yes erop zetten, of de 
nieuwe tag leisure=outdoor_seating [1] op het gebied buiten zetten, met 
allerlei tags die aangeven dat er zonnewering is enz. Zelf map ik de taverne 
als punt, omdat ze niet het gehele gebouw beslaat.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] What could you map ? / Wat kan je mappen ?

2016-07-01 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Congrats!!!
( I didn't  connect the OSM username with you.)

To me, as there are not much real unmapped places in Belgium, you should 
always start from the map and during survey check what is missing and 
otherwise, if what is present on the map is actually still present and 
correct.
Else you could take a lot of pictures and notes of things already done. 
Seems a waste of time and effort to me.


As said below, for me the current mapping of sidewalks is fine!

For the buildings and house numbering, I see a lot of the same problems 
with these automatic imports as in regard with the 'import' of satelite 
photo's.
Every day, buildings, new streets, ... get constructed or demolished.  
Satelite photo's and databases are frequently not on par with the real 
situation.
eg. In Huldenberg you have Zagerijstraat, Priesterberg, 20 houses down 
at the St-Jansbergstwg, etc.
IMO, every import at the desk, should be followed or preceeded by a 
survey at place, to verify current status.
I consider these tools more as a drawing aid and see the real force of 
the open street map in its continual survey by the many and as such 
following much closer the reality, then the other tools.


Regards,
Gerard

I know I mapped the place in detail, but I hoped people would mention
what they would map without looking at the map :-)

I stopped mapping house numbers ( I have collected more than 20.000 by
hand according to Pascal Neis :-)  ), as they are imported via CRAB at
the moment and maybe later this year via a GRB import (with the
buildings).
That's why I turned to other stuff.

I've heard pro's and con's for separate sidewalks & cycleways. I don't
separate them as long as there is no physical barrier (hedge, guard
rail, ditch,...)
I'll try to map sidewalk=... or cycleway=... on the road though.

I'll have a closer look at the TIA sign

Hi,

Checking on the map, learns me that most items are already thoroughly mapped
(street cabinets, bins, advertising, lanes, crossings,...)
Things lacking, but not derivable from the photo are the division of
buildings and the corresponding addresses of the buildings.
IMO addresses are of more importance then the little street furniture and
should get more priority in mapping.
Not meaning, that I don't appreciate these mappings, every added object
counts!

When you have lot of time, you could also map the separated footwalk and
bicycle paths, but this is advanced stuff, and I don't recommend it, as it
is not so easy to make a correct separation and have all options for
connections and resulting in no foot etc on the main highway itself, so that
routing programs for bike and foot will always select the correct paths. If
not done well, it makes more clutter then making things real or clear.
It seems these paths are already good and sufficient tagged in the map.

So, in short, at first sight, not much extra to map from the photo.
(I assume the sign to TIA is simply a direction and not part of a (tourist)
route, which would imply a missing relation for some bicycle route/network)

Gerard.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Name of "domeinbos"

2016-04-07 Thread Gerard Vanderveken
Het probleem is ook wel dat het meestal natuurgebieden zijn, waar in de 
loop van de jaren ook altijd nog wel percelen worden bijgekocht. Soms 
liggen er ook nog prive-percelen in het gebied.
Maar het belangrijkste is toch wel dat het gemapt wordt en er een naam 
voor bestaat in OSM, ook al is de juiste omvang niet bekend of korrekt.


Meestal zijn er wel kaartjes van de exacte percelen te vinden in studies 
die bvb het INBO doet of bij de vereniging die het gebied beheert, zoals 
Natuurpunt enz.


Groeten,
Gerard.

De kaartjes op die borden zijn niet altijd even duidelijk of komen

Ik wil me er dan gemakkelijk vanaf maken en ergens een node plaatsen

omdat het dan niet altijd over bos gaat, dacht ik aan place.

Ik heb vast en zeker ergens een foto van zo'n bord waar het niet

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Name of "domeinbos"

2016-04-07 Thread Gerard Vanderveken
No, that name is OK and is sometimes also used on the info panels used 
by ANB.

If you fill in domeinbos in the search box, you find several results, eg
http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/166991444
But it has mosttimes a second name, which is the main name, reducing 
Domeinbos to an always used qualifier.
So, tag simply with name=Domeinbos or if you know the real name: 
name=Domeinbos Xx

While the E-roads are a conceptual thing, this is understandable.

However the A-roads are a physical, real highway and they should be 
mapped as indicated on eg. the km-markings.
That means that the ring around a city is a separate way: the R-roads 
and not part of a A-road.


For this reason I would suggest to leave the A12 in 2 pieces and 
recommend to remove the ring from the A1.


In any case:
- segment 3 is the end point of segment 6 and should be joined to it by 
adding it and the missing piece of road between.
- same problem for segment 4 which should be joined to 6 with th missing 
bridge part.

Gerard.

Hallo,

I'm wondering whether the relation for the A12 should include the 
ringway in Antwerp as well.
Right now, the relation consists of 2 separate sections, north and 
south of Antwerp.

see http://osmrm.openstreetmap.de/relation.jsp?id=102684

Depending on the answer to that question, I might remove what is 
marked as section 3, which is not connected to any other part.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Lanes turns from wich side you start to count?

2014-11-30 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Hi,

It is simple:
Look in the direction of the road= arrow (eg SN)
Observe lane from left to right.
In Belgium on a common street with 2 directions, the left side is in the 
reverse direction (eg 2 NS) and the right side lanes goes in the 
direction of the arrow (eg 3 SN).

So you have in the strait piece of the road:

turn:lanes:backward=none|none
turn:lanes:forward=none|none|none 

For the turning itself before a crossing you consider the direction of 
the lane:
eg NS outside lane (1)  is for turning right and going through, inside 
lane is for turning left (by crossing other 3 lanes)


turn:lanes:backward=right|through;left

In the forward direction (SN) is eg a lane for every direction

turn:lanes:forward=left|through|right

The last and outside lane (5) is of course for turning right.

Regards,
Gerard

Re: [OSM-talk-be] mountainbikeroutes: lcn of rcn

2014-05-08 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Die van het Dijleland zijn allemaal lussen, gemarkeerd met gekleurde pijlen.
http://www.toerismevlaamsbrabant.be/fietsen/fietsproducten/mountainbikenetwerk-dijleland/index.jsp
De lussen delen hier en daar wel een segment of wegkruising, zodat je 
onderweg van de ene lus naar de andere kan hoppen. Hierdoor kan je ze 
ook aan mekaar schakelen en zo grotere afstanden afleggen, maar er is 
geen knooppunten systeem zoals bij de wandel- en fietsroutes.


Iedere lus is meestal op het grondgebied van 1 of 2 gemeenten, zodat lcn 
zeker het meest toepasselijk is.


De lussen staan op zich zelf, maar worden altijd wel gepland om 
verbinding te kunnen vormen met andere lussen.
Wanneer voldoende lussen zullen aanwezig zijn om de hele provincie te 
bedekken en verbinden, ontstaat er van zelf een netwerk, dat dan 
eventueel tot knooppuntennetwerk zou kunnen worden omgevormd. Een en 
ander hangt af van de plannen van Bloso (en de gemeentebesturen).

Re: [OSM-talk-be] 1 or 2 lanes ?

2014-02-27 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Hi,

From the same lane page on the Wiki 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:lanes:
If the lane is also regulary opened with heavy traffic (spitsstrook 
http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spitsstrook) then it should be counted 
(lanes=2), if it is only used for emergencies it is a shoulder and 
should not be counted (lanes=1).

Just my take.

The highway goes through a tunnel. Each road has its own pipe in

marked as a spare lane where traffic is not allowed (red X signal
above the lane). The idea is to open the spare lane in case of
accidents or in case the pipe in the other direction needs to be
closed and the normal lane will be used for traffic in the
opposite direction. 
How should this be tagged ? 
Change from lanes = 1 to lanes = 2 and back to one when we are at

the end of the tunnel?
Are there additional tags for such a situation ? Examples ?

Don't know how the app works, but I assume they have a user login at OSM.
Maybe we need to contact the app-builder and ask that they add something

Or even allow him to read and write these messages.

zijn tijd verspilt aan het taggen van zaken die reeds in OSM bestaan.

Probleem met deze users is dat ik vermoed dat hij via OSM AND
(zien usernaam ...) aan het taggen is, waardoor er in 'mijn
streek' verschillende duplicate speed_cameras in de database
eindigen.  Of eindigden, want ik heb de meest van zijn changes
liggen nakijken en verwijderd waar nodig.  gelukkig heeft die geen
te grote changesets -voorlopig-.

Ik heb geen ervaring met OSM AND mappen (heb het wel draaien op

speed_cameras stonden, op meters van zijn plaatsingen.

Wel storend dat je zo'n user niet kan bereiken, wss logt die nooit

Morning everyone,

This week a few automated triggers went off in 'my area'
concerning actions of new usrs.   I would love to get in touch
with the user OsmAnd_Pieter to discuss some of the beginner
mistakes he recently made concerning speed camera's that he mapped
that where already in the map.

It's a shame new users waste their time on things that have been
done already.  I've removed the duplicate camera's for the
crossroad nearby but he's taggin them all over north Belgium.   It
looks like it's done on OSM-AND, obviouslty he's not seeing the
existing speeds camera's on his device and he's not checking his
commits in JOSM.

Pretty annoying we can't reach him

Brussels' Community? Bilingual Community?



I think it should be Bilingual Community, because
- that border level refers to the languages and Brussels is not (an 
official one)
- it's a neutral description and does not favourite one of the languages 
as else one of them should be mentioned first.
A note could explain that the community is part of both, but is mapped 
seperatly, because of the limitations of OSM.

quatre régions linguistiques 
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%A9gions_linguistiques_de_Belgique :

région de langue allemande (la plupart des communes des Cantons de 
l'Est 
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantons_de_l%27Est_%28Belgique%29). 
Ces quatre zones délimitent les territoires où chaque langue est la 
langue officielle, avec en plus trente communes situées près des 
frontières linguistiques où des minorités historiques bénéficient de 
facilités linguistiques

The issue seems clear to me, especially in French.
We have 3 kinds of persons according to the official language they 
speak, but we have 4 territories one of which is bilingual in the 
sense that their people can choose between two languages. behorend 
tot zowel is ambiguous: it should made clear that it speaks of the 
persons and not the territories.
But that's obvious. A territory cannot be inside 2 disjoint 
territories, and that's the problem...
As OSM is obviously drawing territories, the communities do not fit in 
relations, these must contain territories


As nobody cares, as I am presently involved in Brussels modifications,

- add a 4th territory aka community for Brussels.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] driving way

2013-10-26 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Not clear what exact is the situation and what the role of which street is.
-1-
I suppose that at the blocked entrance at the south side of the street, 
there wil be some gate or narrowing, what will be indicated with eg sign 
C1 and F19.
I suggest you take there a little segment of 5 to 20 m long and 
designate that for one way.

-2-
If it is a problem that coming from one direction, you can not enter a 
street, such as in the case with a left turn that would you make a 
forbidden crossing of the white line in the middle of the street, then 
you need to set up a restriction relation 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:restriction.

(The roadsegments need to split at the crossing. )

One of the issues I have is that in one street there can be driven on 
both sides. But if you want to enter that street en come from the 
south side, you are not allowed to enter the street. If you come from 
other directions you are allowed.


How can I map that? There will be sign C31 on one side the other side not.

Door je massa-edit met je scripts slaag je er telkens weer in gebruikers

Hiermee hou je ook alle vooruitgang tegen.

Tevens heb je nu 321 relaties onbruikbaar gemaakt voor Potlach en de

Dit was ook reeds het geval met diverse fietsnetwerken, waarbij ook een 
heleboel gegevens werden vernietigd, want niet komform met je script.


Tevens zijn alle knooppuntfietsroutes met een eindpunt op meerdere 
lokaties onbruikbaar geworden om een gpx van te genereren door het 
gebruik van 'staarten'.

http://hiking.lonvia.de/en/?zoom=13lat=50.78801lon=4.58032
http://hiking.lonvia.de/en/?zoom=14lat=50.79127lon=4.13863

Ook in de online Potlach editor of  het Openstreetmap overzicht wordt 
anders alleen een relatienummer getoond wat  de zaak zeer 
onoverzichtelijk maakt en je niet kan zien wat de relatie is waartoe bvb 
een weg behoort..

Vergelijk Zuid-Dijleland met Westhoek
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1641610
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/2099497

Ook voor buslijnen staat er in de Wiki nog een door de praktijk 
achterhaalde tekst om de busroutes geen naam te geven.

De twee zijn/waren synoniemen, maar eigenlijk vind ik foot meer aangewezen.
Maar foot lijkt nu wat meer deprecated te zijn in de Wiki, zodat  hiking 
de terechte keuze is.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:route#Tags

Misschien moet okok de belgische Wiki worden aangepast

2) Ik gebruik potlach2. Bij het maken van een nieuwe
relatie vraagt hij als het ware om een naam een referentie
te geven. Ik dat geval geeft hij ook duidelijk aan over
welke relatie het gaat bv ZD 71-72 (zie de zojuist

Potlach genereert de relatie automatisch met route=hiking

Ik vraag me dus af of het invullen van de ref MOET

Dat is helemaal niet erg, je bent meer dan welkom!

Als een weg uit verschillende segmenten bestaat heeft dat zijn reden.
Er kunnen verschillende eigenschappen zijn bvb snelheidsbeperking, 
verharding
Of soms iets moeilijker op te merken zoals in dit geval het behoren tot 
verschillende relaties  in volge het passeren van een wandelroute over 
een gedeelte van de weg.

Gewoon het nummer zoals aangeduid op de bordjes.

Dus blijft er over, de ref tag. Die kan het netwerk bevatten of niet. 
Dan zijn er de volgende mogelijkheden:


ZD 01-12
ZD 1-12

De eerste twee eisen dat we een conventie afspreken ivm afkortingen

Vb.
Zuid Dijleland - ZD
Ieperboog - IB
Heuvelland - HL
Westkust - WK

Maar wat belangrijker is, is consistentie:

* Nederlandse wandelknooppunten zijn er volgens hetzelfde systeem,
  dus moet ook met de Nederlanders overlegd worden (zij gebruiken
  momenteel hetzelfde systeem als wij, met de note=* tag)
* Wandelknooppunten en fietsknooppunten moeten een zelfde tagging

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Using the tag place=neighbourhood

2012-06-24 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Hi,

I woukld not change it
place=hamlet. fits fine for Mariakerke
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/NL:Map_Features#Plaats_.28place.29
Hamlets typically do have a church and form a separate community.
suburbs are districts in cities, while neighbourhoods are more  a group 
of rural isolated  houses (all without churches)

That's what I think of it.
Regards,
Gerard.

Sander Deryckere wrote:


Hi,

I'm busy drawing and correcting boundaries in W-VL. And for Oostende, 
I have a strange issue (http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oostende).


The deelgemeenten of Oostende are Zandvoorde and Stene (as those are 
the only ones that were still independent before the fusion of the 
70's). The hamlet Raversijde used to be part of Middelkerke, and it's 
still rather separated from the main centre of Oostende.


But Mariakerke was completely merged with Oostende in 1899 (so it 
can't be considered as a deelgemeente). Because it isn't a 
deelgemeente, this automatically means it should get the tag 
place=hamlet. This while Mariakerke has over 10.000 inhabitants, so it 
should deserve a title place=town when it wasn't merged so soon.


http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Belgium/Conventions/Places

I would like to use the tag place=neigbourhood for Mariakerke.

What do you think about the following definition?

When the place has the name of a municipality or a deelgemeente, the 
definitions stay as they are


When the place doesn't have the name of a municipality or 
deelgemeente, the tags place=hamlet and place=neighbourhood are used


place=hamlet is used when the residential area is clearly separated 
from other residential areas.
place=neighbourhood is used when the residential area is part of the 
residential area of a city, town or village.


This follows my feeling about a hamlet being something rural, while a 
neighbourhood is part of a bigger residential area. And it also 
follows the international conventions (more or less) on the wiki: 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Place

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Chantiers werken in Bxl

2012-06-20 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Intended use of highway=construction is when a new road is constructed on a 
place where no road was before.

Tagging like this, without changing the existing tags
highway=primary
ref=R32
construction=minor
constriction:start=2012-08-01
construction:end=2012-09-30
has the advantage that construction tags can be removed by a script, 
checking the end date.
But, as Ben said, do not map road works, because mosttimes people forget 
to change at the end of the works.


Regards,
Gerard.

Ben Laenen wrote:

General consensus is to not tag roads for roadworks (like other temporary 
structures). Except in the cases where they will take a lot of time and where 
someone will follow up closely so everything will be updated soon enough in

Everything else should stay in a database outside of OSM, just like one would 
do traffic information.


So, for example a road closed for 2 months: not enough for tagging it 
highway=construction.

Hello,

There has been some discussion recently about cycleways on the list.

I have recently come across the free cycle journey planner
http://www.camcycle.org.uk/map/journey/ [1] and I dream to have such a
tool available in the Region of Brussels where I live.

There is a long way to go to have such a tool, based on free data,
collected and stored on openstreetmap, and free software tools, but
working altogether, maybe with the help of organization such as
http://www.provelo.org/ (in English, French and Dutch),
http://www.gracq.org/ (in French) and http://www.fietsersbond.be/ (in
Dutch) and their respective members and partners, and also the Region
itself, we could tend towards such a goal.

We could also maybe get some support from Brigitte Grouwels, Ministre
chargée des Travaux Publics et des Transports and Bruno De Lille,
Secrétaire d’État en charge de la Mobilité


From what I have received as info from Gracq in Brussels recently,

there would be little effort currently in development, even if they
have heard of the will by some Region officials to do something.

There is http://www.bruxellesmobilite.irisnet.be/velo/ that already
contains quite a number of information but not enough I think to get
the same as [1].

Does any of you know if this information would be freely available for
an easy import ins OSM (after the usual check) ?

I write this mail to get information by you about any initiative that
you would know in any other part of Belgium, Flanders or Wallonie,
that would go in the same direction

Voor Vlaanderen, I have found http://www.fietsnet.be/, apparently
based on proprietary tools and data, but that is not yet functionnaly
equivalent to [1].

I have seen http://www.opencyclemap.org/ show that in Belgium there
are many more routes described in Vlaanderen than in Wallonie and in
Brussels, another good start.

The map that is sold by Gracq for 1 € could also be used, if we are
allowed, as a starting point.

Any idea, info, question, discussion welcome.

Thanks

Hi all,

I have a few tagging questions

* How do I tag a 'Feestzaal/Sale de fête' that is part of a
pub/restaurant ? usually it has a different name than the
restaurant/pub


http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dcommunity_centre
You could add an operator= tag to identify the place where to go for 
renting it, eg the pub/restaurant near by.

Also website= may informative to the fact it is not a'government' building




As a point in the restaurant building? Just as you would map 
individual  shops in a shopping center.


* How do I tag a place that rents rooms for conferences, and other
activities ? e.g. http://www.roosendael.be


I don't know that one, maybe with the proposed feature rental:

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Mapping Taverne, Cafe, etc.

2011-12-02 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

amenity=tavern is also possible
or
amenity=restaurant with type=tavern
But I would like to have it added on the list of official amenity tags 
as it is indeed a separate type..

I tag a taverne as amenity=cafe, since that's the closest tag to 
describe what it is (quiet place, selling coffees, other drinks and 
some food). For what we call café en Belgium, I use amenity=pub (as 
they sell less coffees and food, but more alcoholic drinks). If it's 
not a quiet place, and there is absolutely no food available, you can 
also use amenity=bar.


But I have bigger problems with fritures. I tag them as 
amenity=restaurant or amenity=fast_food (resp for fritures that focus 
on sitting there to eat, or take-away fritures), appended with a tag 
cuisine=friture. I don't know if that's a good way of tagging.

Hello,

How do we map the followings amenities in Belgium ?

- Taverne   -- they serve more than only snacks or light meals
(more restaurant-like), but they also serve (only) drinks,
pancakes, etc (more  cafe-like -- i.e. as intended by the
amenity=cafe tag).  
- Cafe -- What I mean here is a cafe not selling snacks (beside

perhaps chips or any other non-prepared food) (Bruin-cafe)

thanks in advance

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Fwd: [OSM-talk-fr] StreetView?

2011-11-24 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

People tend to judge the book by the cover and not by the content.
In this respect OSM is no match to StreetView. So, we should not try to 
profilate us against it.
It will only cause disbelief  and leaves OSM with a stamp of 
inferiority, because there is not the bling bling of StreetView.


There are other opportunities, which are more suitable to get attention  
for OSM and then we can do it with our strong points.
One example is trage wegen / voies lentes, which get much attention in 
many villages and its councels these days. There we can offer advanced 
mapping en cartography.


If you can't win, don't go to the battle.

So I don't think we should react. We should just spread
the word of OSM on a continuous base. Apart from that, if
OSM would suddenly get in the big media, we would also
have a lot of problems with training newbies. The best
system is that of continuous growth, where the older
generation can teach the newer generation. And I'm not
even talking about vandalism here.


I don't think a lot of new users should scare us into not
seeking more visibility for the project.  I think it would be
a very good thing to get more new users involved!

OSM is the best mapping project and free as in free speech!
Everybody should know this...


We should not be scared of seeking visibility,  I know OSM can
handle a lot of new users, and making us visible is also a way to
get a  steady growth. But we should not demand the media to give
us the attention. When we grow bigger, the media will report about
OSM because we're more interesting, and we will have enough
man-power to handle everything. 


If you disrupt that steady process, and you really demand stuff
through laws and lawsuits, I don't think it would end very well.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Fietsknooppuntennetwerken, hun complexiteit en egrijpelijke misverstanden eromheen

2011-11-24 Thread Gerard Vanderveken
Ik vind het hele gedoe met die tentakels een zeer hoog absurdistan 
gehalte hebben.
Een route is simpelweg een aaneenschakeling van wegen tussen 2 punten: 
beginpunt A en eindpunt B.
Een speciaal geval is wanneer A en B hetzelfde punt zijn, dan heb je een 
omloop.
Dat het trajekt van A naar B verschillend kan zijn van het trajekt van B 
naar A is al genoeg komplikatie, maar daar zijn de forward en backward 
rollen voor.


Maar wanneer je in 1 route 3 begin- en 3 eindpunten begint te mappen en 
bovendien bestaan er soms ook nog eens verschillende paden voor de heen- 
en terugweg, dan ben je volgens mij toch niet goed bezig.  Eigenlijk 
prop je dan een tiental routes in 1 relatie.


Met zo'n relatie kan je echt niks aanvangen.  Daar kan je geen GPX of 
routing mee samenstellen zonder alle deelnemende straten te gaan 
analyseren en op die set een eigen routing te gaan toepassen om te zien 
welke wegen moeten behouden of uitgesloten worden.


Dan getuigt de aanpak op fietsnet.be toch wel van een meer 
realistischer  en pragmatischer kijk op de dingen, die dan ook praktisch 
en makkelijk bruikbaar is.

- Apart houden waar het moet, zie het hier onder  aangehaalde voorbeeld:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.069lon=4.42439zoom=15layers=Crelation=9754
Op fietsnet zijn er 2 losse routes tussen de 3 in lijn liggende knopen 
met nr 52 en ook 1 tussen de 2 knooppunten 51.

- Samenvoegen waar het kan: vb knooppunt 90 wat lager op de Zenne.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.03433lon=4.42266zoom=16layers=Crelation=9754
Bij fietsnet is er maar 1 knoop en die ligt gewoon midden op de brug.
(Hier onbreekt blijkbaar in OSM wel nog de verbinding tussen de 2 knopen 
nr 90 over de daar aanwezige voetgangers- (+fietsers-?)brug.)


Wanneer twee of drie knoopunten zeer kort bij mekaar liggen, kies gewoon 
ergens 1 punt en maak dat het knooppunt.

Bvb op het middenbeen van een T of een arbitraire arm op een rondpunt.
Zoals hier
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.15636lon=4.2292zoom=17layers=Crelation=9754
Leid daarna alle routes van de nabuurpunten naar dat punt. Want eigelijk 
is er ook maar een knooppunt.
Dat de resulterende aaneengeschakelde routes hierdoor een kleine krul 
kunnen bevatten vind ik dan nog niet eens zo erg. Die omweg is de prijs 
die de mensen betalen, die blindelings hun GPS volgen zonder zelf maar 
een poging te doen van op de bordjes te letten.
Alternatief is dat je voor mikro-mapping gaat en alle 'losse' 
knooppunten met hetzelfde nummer gaat mappen, maar dan dien je ook voor 
deze kort bij elkaar liggende punten de aparte routetjes te worden 
voorzien. In het  voorbeeld van knoop 98 worden dat dan 3 aparte 
routetjes (er zijn blijkbaar geen eenrichtingsbaantjes of verplichte 
rijrichtingen bij) elk op hun zijde van de driehoek.


Ik weet dat ik nogal skeptisch was tegen de aanpak van Polyglot die het 
eerst op die wijze implementeerde, vooral skeptisch dan op de zin ervan. 
Is zo'n fijn detail niet overdreven of wel nodig?
Dat gevoel heb ik nog steeds, maar als er dan toch meerdere knopen voor 
1 nummer gemapt worden, dan is het voor mij de enige goede manier en 
zeker stukken beter dan die tentakels.

Gewoon een waardeloos systeem!
Op die manier wordt OSM nooit praktisch bruikbaar om sites a la fietsnet 
op te zetten.


Ook met de definities voor de rollen forward en backward heb ik het 
moeilijk. Die zijn voor mij ook absurd en zorgen enkel voor komplikatie 
zonder echt iets toe te voegen.
Ik heb ook de indruk dat het dateert uit de tijd dat er nog geen 
volgorde kon worden gegeven (of behouden worden) aan de leden in een 
relatie.


Wat betekent een rol hebben in een relatie?  Het betekent dat je als 
element in een relatie deelneemt, maar niet op dezelfde wijze als een 
ander element.
Een 'way' in een gebied kan zowel een stuk van de buitenkant of van een 
enclave zijn. Daar geeft de rol outer of inner perfekt weer wat een 
bepaalde way komt doen in de relatie.
Voor een route die in principe zowel van A naar B als van B naar A kan 
gevolgd worden, is het te volgen pad voor heen en terug meestal gelijk.
Wanneer er eenrichtingswegen inzitten ontstaat er een verschillend pad  
voor die heen- en terugweg. Er zitten dus drie verschillende wegen in de 
relatie. Wegen die een rol spelen voor beide richtingen, of alleen in de 
heen-, of in de terugrichting worden gebruikt. Logischerwijs krijgt de 
heenrichting van A naar B de rol forward en de terugweg van B naar A 
backward. Een lege rol is niets speciaals en daar wordt de weg in beide 
richtingen gebruikt.  Heel simpel.
Moet je een route  in een GPX gieten neem je gewoon de leden met een 
lege rol, aangevuld met de leden met of de rol  forward voor de 
heenrichting, of de rol backward voor de andere richting. Ook heel 
simpel uit te sorteren en gemakkelijk.


Maar het door de Wiki voorgestelde systeem heeft gemeend te moeten 
rekening houden met de richting van de onderliggende weg en daar dan een 
rol aan toe te kennen.

2011-11-23 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Don't rely on the streetnames and housenumbers indicated by Google.
I was only in my second street and detected a totally wrong street name.
The housenumbers were as indicated approximative and way off.

The viewpoints of Google are with distances of 20 m plus and so many 
signs and even housenumbers (when houses are not at the street border) 
are not readable on the photo.

Also Polyglot will be out of luck for decoding sign plates at the bus stops.

As 2012 is an election year for the villages, many streets are and will 
be  in the works, so even the appearance (surface, cycleways) of the 
streets may already be or will be changed since the registration.

Use the derived info with care.
When you see anomalies or big differences with OSM, plan a survey at the 
place.

The streetview can help you with the preparation at what to look out for.

Gerard.

Bien évidemment, les images ne sont pas toute jeune même c'est du même
acabit que les images bing.

Donc voilà, peut-on utiliser les images, dans quel mesure? ,..

   



Euh, j'ai pas compris si tu parles d'images aériennes (référence à
Bing) ou d'images prises depuis le sol (Google Street View).
Concernant les images aériennes, comme le mentionne Thomas, la réponse
est simple : il est interdit de tracer directement depuis les
orthophotos (sauf autorisation express comme l'a fait Microsoft/Bing).

Concernant les images prises depuis les Googles cars, c'est plus
compliqué puisqu'on ne trace pas directement depuis les photos mais
on retire une information présente sur la photo (par exemple, un
panneau sens interdit ou le nom d'une rue si le panneau n'est pas
flouté). Hors, il y a souvent une confusion sur ce sujet concernant
les droits d'auteur. Google est bien le propriétaire des droits des
photos publiées sur StreetView et il est interdit de les reproduire
(les photos) sans leur autorisation. Toutefois, Google n'est pas
propriétaire des rues qu'il a pris en photo (pas encore ;-), ni des
informations contenues dans ces photos. Il est même souvent en
violation du droit lorsqu'il oublie de flouter des visages ou des
informations d'ordre privée qu'il publie sans l'autorisation des
personnes concernées (autre vaste débat). Il ne faut pas confondre
photos et contenu des photos.
Il est donc tout à fait légal d'utiliser une photo street view pour
vérifier qu'un panneau sens interdit est bien présent à tel endroit.
Mais, et il y a un mais, faire une utilisation systématique de
StreetView pose d'autres problèmes légaux qui font que ça n'est pas
possible non plus de le faire trop souvent sans l'autorisation de
Google (droit relatif aux collections de données).
La question de l'utilisation de StreetView pour OSM a déjà été posée à
plusieurs reprises à Google et notamment Ed Parsons, porte-parole des
projets géographiques chez Google et qui répond ceci:

 


so checking the odd street names is OK.. but every street name I would suggest 
would represent a bulk feed.
   



qu'on peut traduire approximativement par vérifier quelques noms de
rue est OK.. mais tous les noms de rues représenterait un usage
massif. (et donc interdit, ndt)

Voir une copie de sa réponse sur cette archive:
http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2011-April/057473.html

Pour résumer, utiliser StreetView pour un usage occasionnel, oui; pour
un usage systématique, non. J'ajouterais que StreetView n'est qu'un
instantané parfois ancien et donc que cela ne remplacera jamais la
vérification sur le terrain.
Comme on le voit, c'est un sujet complexe et trop souvent, les gens
préfèrent dire de ne pas le faire par précaution mais c'est plus le
résultat d'une culture de la peur que d'une vision éclairée du droit.

When the node is not part of the highway, its position left or right 
from the highway is enough to determine the apllicable direction of the way.
But I would always tag nodes of the highway itself, for not having the 
confusion where a node belongs to.
Apart from indication of the exact position, I don't see any good 
reasons to put signs outside the highway or to map them as sign in the 
first place.
Their consequences are applicable to the highway segments an that's what

While starting to change a mini_roundabout which wasn't actually a

It is a 'verhoogd kruispunt', so I tagged all the elevated ways with:

And the places where the bumps are 'felt' with:

traffic_calming=bump

This is double marking, the end of the roadsegment of a table is by 
nature always a bump.

But the real bump for traffic_calming is in fact something else
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:traffic_calming%3Dbump
So, traffic_calming=bump is not realy applicable here.



I added the cycleways and cycleway tags and then I had to change the
rcn and rwn relations

The rcn had this, which I have been removing everywhere, since it's a
Dutch word:

nettype=knoop

I left these tags:
rit=x

Although I don't know what they stand for and where they come from.
Should they stay? Are they useful for anyone? I don't think rit is an
English term and there are maybe 100-150 out of 5000 routes which have
this tag.


It could be translated as lap
Maybe it is a route number.
Did you try to contact the user that inserted the tagr?
If it is something personal,  it should be deleted.



Concerning the nettype. While editing a bit in Germany (and in the
border area Hohes Venn), my script ran in trouble when trying to
detect new rcn routes, because the Germans use rcn for many different
kinds of cycle routes. In the mean time I found that normally I can
distinguish between the cycle node networks because we don't use ref
tags and they do on the other networks.
While 'complaining' about the mess, they suggested I add an additional
tag to the cycle node network rcn relations, since those were the
exception worldwide. So, does it make sense to add something like:

network:type = numbered_nodes
nettype = numbered_nodes

to our rcn networks?


I would propose to add on these relation for  node networks something like
numbered_nodes=yes
or simply
nodes=yes



Sorry for rambling on and on... those are questions that I've been
wondering about for a while and which all surfaced now during the
editing of a simple junction...

Alle routes die in OSM zijn geplaatst zijn verkregen door surveying.
D.w.z. de bus opstappen en een GPX van de route maken terwijl de bus
aan het rijden is. Dat deed ik op regenachtige en winterdagen...

Van de haltes die erin staan, heb ik ofwel foto's ofwel heb ik zeer
snel geprobeerd om zoveel mogelijk gegevens van de haltebordjes te
lezen en toe te voegen aan die GPX. Het probleem hiermee is dat ik dat
niet op m'n eentje voor heel Vlaanderen kan doen. Zodoende staan alle
routes van De Lijn en een paar van de TEC die Leuven aandoen erin
(behalve de 178 en 179 en school- en marktbussen)

Waar Navteq problemen van maakt, is dat Google ook Shapefiles nodig
heeft. Als De Lijn hun data met ons had gedeeld toen ik dat voorstelde
een tweetal jaar geleden, hadden ze die shapefiles op basis van
OSM-data kunnen genereren... en hadden ze nu dat probleem niet gehad.

Nu, alle bussen hebben GPS'en aan boord en sturen voortdurend hun
positie naar dispatching, dus zo moeilijk kan het voor de Lijn niet
zijn om aan de hand daarvan die shapefiles onafhankelijk van Navteq
aan te maken, eigenlijk.

Dat zou nog 's een jobke voor mij zijn se :-)

mvg,

Jo

PS: ik ben op jacht naar foto's van bushaltes van De Lijn over heel
Vlaanderen. Wie er heeft, of wie anderen kan motiveren om er te maken
mag ze naar mij (laten) doorsturen op dit adres. Want ik zou op die
manier alle haltes erin willen krijgen, aangezien De Lijn hun data aan
ons niet wil vrijgeven, zullen we het zelf moeten doen. Als de haltes
er eenmaal instaan, kunnen de routes volgen, op termijn. Ook zou ik
willen vragen aan mensen die zelf bushaltes ingeven, om tenminste de
ref=xx erbij te zetten en als je wat meer tijd hebt ook een
route_ref=315;316;317;410. De positie van de haltes is vrij
gemakkelijk te bepalen voor zowat de helft ervan, aangezien er in
grote letters B U S staat, wat zeer goed zichtbaar is op Bing. Als er
geen wegmarkering voor de halte is en ook geen hokje, zou het leuk
zijn om ook foto's van de aanliggende huisnummers te maken en door te
sturen.

Maybe the fact that this discussion seems to recur every so often is an
indicator that something is not logical about it.
Since these routes ultimately have to be entered by people and these people
make a choice, which is not easily altered (I tried in the case of RoRay)
as to what editor they use, it does matter whether editors support the way
we tag those relations. Ultimately that's why, until recently, all the
route relations had identical note and name tags.
   




The reason why it keeps coming up is because people fail to learn the basic 
rules about mapping in OSM:


(1) don't tag for the renderer (most people seem to grab this idea)

and

(2) don't tag for the editor (this one is more difficult for some to 
understand)



We can go on and on, but tagging these routes with name tags is a clear 
example of tagging for the editor.
 


We want to tag for the people and for usabillity.

The current reasoning is flawed.

-The route between 2 points in a network has no name, so we do not tag a 
name in OSM.
-People can't work well with unnamed objects, so we give the route a 
name by using start point number - end point number
-Since the route has no name, we can't use the name  tag  and so we put 
the name in the note tag.


A purist point of view is made, which is then compromised in the wrong 
way and this leads to these discussions over and over again.
Do simply what is needed and have this name where it belongs. In the 
name tag.

This will be the end of this ever recurring discussion.

If it is purity that has to come first, then we should have no note tag 
as well and those note tags should be deleted?
We are lucky that JOSM supports this note tag, otherwise there was no 
way of managing those networks in a decent way.

(Maybe a feature request to 'unsupport' this tag in JOSM is in order?)

With the note tag as it is now, we can also not differentiate the routes 
from the different networks, because eg 12-34 can be part of a walking 
or biking network. The current practice is from the time that only one 
node network existed.  Now that ways or regions can be part of several 
networks,  an update is needed.


So, I repeat my proposal to have a change of the Wiki and a decent name 
tag for the routes in a node network, where not only the start and end 
number is present but also preceeded by the (abbreviated) network name 
as done in the walking network Zuid-Dijleland.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1641610
Every route is then clearly and consistently identifiable in all parts 
of the OSM space, be it the overviews on the website, the editors or the 
renderers.


And as PolyGlot already said, thanks to his scripts, the change from 
note tag to name tag can be done overnight.


We do not need to tag for, but also not to tag against.

We want to tag for the people and for usabillity.

The current reasoning is flawed.

-The route between 2 points in a network has no name, so we do not tag a
name in OSM.
   



Congratulations. Now if only we can end the discussion here...

The problem is that the discussion starts here. It is not because there 
is no sign of it, that there is no name for these routes.
Internally the managing people of the network uses also this 'route from 
12 to 34'  name in one or other form for the route segments to list 
their equipment (signposts) and to identify problems etc (See eg 
routedokter)



-People can't work well with unnamed objects, so we give the route a
name by using start point number - end point number
   



I must be some kind of superhuman apparently since I was able to map these 
routes for years using Potlatch 1?


Maybe, but we (and certainly I) aren't. 
But I think that you are no longer working in Potlatch for relations, as 
seeing the names in JOSM. is much more handy
Errors were made, some of which could be prevented if the name was in 
its name tag.
Eg Check out how many duplicated routes were removed by Polylot's edits 
during the last weeks.

The point is that now the note tag is used to store the name of the route.


-Since the route has no name, we can't use the name  tag  and so we put
the name in the note tag.
   



It's a note helping editors to describe what the relation actually is. The 
note has always been there to help fellow mappers and yourself later to get a 
bit more information on the object.



It is only helping in JOSM, were it is displayed in lists.
The others are and will stay out of luck.
They have to check all objects one by one to find out which is which and 
that is not very practical.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1698153
Which one is  186-246?
In Potlatch, when you want to add a way to a relation, you get exact the 
same meaningless list of id numbers.

Which one to pick?


A purist point of view is made, which is then compromised in the wrong
way and this leads to these discussions over and over again.
Do simply what is needed and have this name where it belongs. In the
name tag.
This will be the end of this ever recurring discussion.
   




And if you start using the name tag, you'll find that you have to write 
exceptions for everything using the data since it suddenly has routes with a 
name which it shouldn't present as its name. See what happens with the Lonvia 
map. And there is no simple way to solve this, you'll have to sort it out 
manually.
 


I'm quite pleased with the result on the Lonvia hiking map. Thank you.
http://hiking.lonvia.de/?zoom=14lat=50.80698lon=4.62237

If you don't want to use the name tag, because that  name might be 
rendered, and then put it in the note tag, you are also tagging for 
(against) the renderers.

Exactly as the objection of Eimai is in the trac
https://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/4017#comment:9

 Using the name tag would be an abuse. These routes simply don't have
names, the networks do. Sure we can invent some pretty names to be shown
in the relation lists, but then we'd need to special case every renderer
that wants to actually render these routes to discard names of just these
networks. That's not the better option. 

It is also tagging for the renderer, because one might not be pleased 
with the rendered result.



If it is purity that has to come first, then we should have no note tag
as well and those note tags should be deleted?
   



Why is the note tag not appropriate for this usecase?

If your only issue is helping with the editing of data, invent some other tag 
(mapper_and_editor_friendly_description=* or whatever) and try to get support 
for that in the editors.


Suppose you have some exotic object you want to tag and there's no way to map 
it yet, would you also put its description in the name tag? (Bad example 
perhaps, as some actually do this.)



It's not a name, and for some reason you agree that it's not a name, yet you 
still want to tag it as a name. (*)



(*) where it is some predefined arbitrary description which follows some 
rules on the wiki which would also be subject to some discussion: should we 
use abbreviations? Should it include what kind of network it is? What language 
should it be in?


The fact that you have to invent a name first is reason enough for me to not 
tag it as such.
 

12-34 is a name. It is maybe not the best name or the only name 
possible, but it is one. People who read it know over which route 
relation we are talking. And so it should not be in the note, but in the 
name tag.
We don't need support for some additional tags that might or might not 
get supported. The name tag is appropriate and always supported.
The language is no issue as they are simply in the language of the 
'operator'


Strictly speaking, the bus routes don't have a name either

I use both openwandelkaart and Lonvia to check my edits. Recently, I

100-101) instead of just the ID of the object.

(also click Routes in lower right corner)
vs
Zuid-Dijleland - http://hiking.lonvia.de/?zoom=13lat=50.7784lon=4.60522

Is this the new standard to tag regional walking networks ? Can this be
documented on the wiki ?
   



That happens when you use the name=* tag for the network name on these routes.

As with cycle node networks, don't use the name=* tag on the routes.

 

I believe the Wiki should be changed and in stead of the node tag, a  
name or ref tag should be used.


See also this discussion.:
http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-be/2011-August/002213.html

At the end I asked for a feature request on the website of Open Street 
Map and Potlatch, to have more info beside the meaningless relation id 
numbers.

http://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/4017
As you can see this note tag is an abuse and will never be supported by 
the website or Potlatch.


I don't know or understand the rationale for the note tag either, but 
find the name tag as proposed in the talk, much more convenient (as also 
demonstrated by the2 lonvia links from the TS).

The listings on the website will be more meaningful
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1641610
in opposite to Rivierenland
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1698153
Same goes when you want to add a street to an existing relation. In the 
dropdown, you see only id numbers and so you can not see which is the 
right relation to add to.

When they are named it is much more obvious.


And a second thing to change would be the addition of the endpoints in 
the routes as described by the Wiki.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Cycle_Node_Network_Tagging#.28B.29_Route_tagging
This has no function at all and it is not provided for bike and foot 
routes to have node members.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:route#Members
(nodes are only for PT routes as stop, ...)
It is also superfluous, because the roads at start and end contains 
these points already.


For the network relation, which groups all routes , there you could find 
some sense in it to have the nodes listed.


 


Another question is regarding the name of those networks. Apparently, the
name of the brochure  (see http://www.wandelroutes.org/wandelnetwerk.htm )
does not always match the name on the signposts.

E.g. Kempense Heuvelrug (brochure) is Antwerpse Kempen (signposts)
In het land van Stille Waters (brochure) is Scheldeland (signposts)

Which name is preferred ? Should we somehow mention both names ?
Or is e.g. Antwerpse Kempen a superset of the Kempense Heuvelrug ?
   



Use the one on the signposts.

In fact there are only few bike node networks in Belgium (Flanders 
actually). They are as such listed on the signposts.


From most networks,  these are publicised on more than 1 map, which 
have then distinct titles.

Eg Vlaams-Brabant has 2 networks  Hageland and Groene Gordel.
Hageland fits on 1 map, but Groene Gordel comes with 3 maps: Dijleland, 
Brabantse Kouters and Pajottenland - Zennevallei.

http://www.brabantsekouters.be/gemeenten/gemeenten.asp
These are also 3 regions.

PolyGlot has tried to find a logic in this and tried to exclude double 
numbering of nodes in one network.

So he invented also non-existing networks as eg Dijlelandse Kouters.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1726882
This should be rectified.

Altough the villages are well defined for belonging to their region eg 
Dijleland, etc, it is not always evident for the nodes itself as some 
are on the borders.
The maps themselves are not helping either as they make no (or not 
always) distinction between the different networks or even provinces.


I would prefer to have 3 networks (Dijleland, Kouters and Pajottenland) 
in stead of one large Groene Gordel.
I think it will be too big with too many nodes and routes (some in 
duplication) for being practical.

(It may also hit the limit for maximun number of members)
Also the people that live there, love their region and don't want to be 
part of some politically defined artificiallity.

http://www.nieuwsblad.be/article/detail.aspx?articleid=DMF20111008_072

In general,  I would take the divisions as listed in WikiPedia
http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fietsnetwerk#Status_in_Belgi.C3.AB
and put that as base in the OSM wiki
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Belgium/Cycle_Routes#Cycle_Node_Networks

Especially since their contributions form part of a chain. I've been

OSM changes its license. Could you please check whether you can agree to
release your contributions under the ODBL? The idea behind the license is
mostly the same as with CC-BY-SA. ODBL is more suited for a database,
which is what Openstreetmap is, at the core.
If you can't agree to the new license and contributor terms, your
contributions will have to be removed to move forward. This may have
consequences when people have built further on elements that you touched.
All their efforts may have been in vain as well.
For people like me who would like to try and save as much as possible
data, it means we have to put in inordinate amounts of time to sort out
what can be saved and what needs to be dropped.
So, please, log in for a moment on www.openstreetmap.org and indicate
whether you agree or not to the new license and contributor terms.
   



This is not accurate, no decision has been taken (yet) to change the license 
from CC-BY-SA to ODbL. What is being asked now is to accept the 
contributor's term which grant a wider right to the OSMF by allowing it to 
relicense one's contributions if 2/3 of active mappers agree on the new 
license.
The current target is ODbL, but maybe ten years in the future the community 
at that time may choose another license that they consider more appropriate.


So by accepting the new CT, the contributors must actually have the required 
rights on all their contributions to grant this to the OSMF.


For example, in the case of data contributed by some administration or 
private enterprise, the person who imported them in OSM must be sure he is 
allowed to accept the CT (some people explicitly refused the CT because of 
such problem).


cheers


That is also not accurate.
Actually, You are accepting both, and the new OdbL license for your 
existing and future contributions,  and the new contributor terms, which 
makes it easier to change the license again, if there is a reason to do so.
For this change from CC-BY-SA to OdbL, everyone has to give its 
acceptance, for changing to another (that would be then the third) 
license a 2/3 majority is sufficient.
There is no  license change from OdbL in the short future necessary or 
foreseen, and so these contributor terms aren't strictly needed now, but 
it is a good provision to be ready in a distant future for a 
modernisation of the OdbL  license should it be needed, and then the 
transition will be much smoother by this majority principle.

In Potlatch the alignment with Yahoo is still correct.
For other areas (Loonbeek) the alignment witth Bing is still correct.
Probably Bing updated its images for some part of the Antwerp area and 
it has some alignment problems.

The church is duplicated at the right, but due to the advanced

cutted off.

The misalignment shows on all zoom levels.
I assume this will be corrected in a few days.
The JOSM editor has some functions to align the background, but I 
don't recommend it to go into that.

Hi Julien,

If not, if you point me to one of your bus stops, I'll try and see 
what I can do. For myself, I'll probably be showing the zone number of 
the stops, this way.


In the mean time, I've improved a bit on the concept:

way[boundary]
 { color: #66; width: 2; opacity: 0.6; dashes: 24,4, 4, 4; 
z-index: 4;} 
way[boundary=administrative]

 { color: purple; width: 2; opacity: 0.2; dashes: 24,4; z-index: 4;}
 
node[rcn_ref]

 {text-color: green;
  font-size: 17;
  text: rcn_ref;
  text-halo: #aaffcc;
  text-halo-radius: 2;
  text-position: right;}

relation[type=network][network=rcn]  node::relation_underlay
 {text-color: red;
  font-size: 17;
  text: rcn_ref;
  text-halo: #aaffcc;
  text-halo-radius: 2;
  text-position: right;}

area
 {text-color: red;
  font-size: 18;
  text: name;
  text-position: center;}


Now it shows the CNNs/FKP'en that are part of a network in red on cyan 
and the other ones in an ugly greenish grey on pink. Later on, I'll 
probably want to assign each network its own color.


For some reason the boundary is not drawn differently, which I think 
would be helpful since unsurprisingly those cycle node networks tend 
to have boundaries on the borders between the provinces.

You can see such nodes are highlighted in grey, because it has

The proposed 'change' makes that the cycle node numbers are displayed in

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Fietsknooppuntennetwerk/Cycle node network

2011-08-31 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

It makes perfect sense to me and I totally agree.
But I assume you mean  ways in stead of nodes in 'So the route relations 
should only contain (a preferably) continuous set of nodes'


On top of that,  I find it handy when the route realations have a name, 
so it is easy to see which are the relations of a road.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/73069100
When they have 2 or 3 meaningful letters in front (followed by a space) 
of the numbers, you can also easily see on the hike or bike maps which 
network is in place

eg ZD 239-240 = Zuid-Dijleland from node 239 to 240
http://hiking.lonvia.de/?zoom=12lat=50.779lon=4.56392
With only the numbers,
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/14142
it is truncated and thus cluthering the map.
http://cycling.lonvia.de/?zoom=13lat=50.78855lon=4.59216layers=FFBTT
Also when a way is part of  more than one network (hike and bike) the 
numbers don't tell which is which.

Here a good addition  could be DL for Dijleland
Alternative is to provide an osmc tag with the shortened name in it

Hi,

I'm working on the cycle node network in Flanders/Southern Netherlands.

I created a collection relation:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1726882

This should make it a lot more convenient to find all the 
nodes/routes/networks involved in the rcn. Fiddling with XAPI and such 
is not very productive... It's extremely time consuming and very error 
prone.


Which contains a network relation for each set of numbered nodes 
(where each set contains only one time 01,02, etc) (I'm working 
without the maps of Toerisme Vlaanderen, so I had to improvise for the 
naming and where to make a subdivision)


For the moment I'm abusing the role to add the node number. This works 
easier and is only temporary. I'll take them all out again, when I'm 
done inventorizing.


The network relations contain the route relations. As far as I'm 
concerned, the route relations don't need to contain the nodes 
anymore. They are part of the ways, anyway. So the route relations 
should only contain (a preferably) continuous set of nodes. I try to 
have them start at the lower numbered node. If the forward and 
backward relation don't follow the same route, I use forward/backward 
roles. The idea I'm following is that it should be possible to go from 
the lower numbered to the higher numbered node by following all the 
ways without a role until ways with forward roles are met. Then all 
the ways with forward roles until a way with a backward role is found. 
Then skip the ways with backward roles and continue with the ways 
without a role.


All this, because I want to be able to 'validate' the routes for 
continuity with a script/program and this will probably simplify the 
life of the people of Fietsnet as well.


I'll post an example to illustrate later on.

It makes perfect sense to me and I totally agree.
But I assume you mean  ways in stead of nodes in 'So the route relations

On top of that,  I find it handy when the route realations have a name,
so it is easy to see which are the relations of a road.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/73069100
When they have 2 or 3 meaningful letters in front (followed by a space)
of the numbers, you can also easily see on the hike or bike maps which
network is in place
eg ZD 239-240 = Zuid-Dijleland from node 239 to 240
   



Do not give names to the route relations of cycle and walking node networks. 
They don't have names so you shouldn't invent one. Use the note=* tag for 
what you want to put in the name tag, and JOSM will gladly show the note to 
you in the relation list.


Greetings
Ben
 

That is OK for JOSM, but a list like this (at the bottom) is simply not 
meaningful.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/917?relation_page=3
This is much clearer.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/9132576
altough  a short name would also do:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1641610
The route name is not 'invented', everyone referr to it as the route 
from node A to node B

So why not formalize it?
I guess the province has internally a similar naming.
That it is not on streetsigns is no objection for me.
Tracks and paths from roads of the Atlas don't have official names 
either, and yet it makes perfect sense to name them as numbered in the 
atlas as eg Buurtweg 23,  Sentier 45, etc.)

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Lang usages and modifications in BXL

2011-08-13 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Agreed on 'first come, first set'.

But one could make an exception for things that by their nature have a 
French or Flemish character, eg schools or institutions that are 
dependent on one of the Communities or Regions, maybe also associations 
or companies that have only signs in one language,  For such POI you 
could argue that depending on the case NL or FR should come first.
Maybe a note tag as eg 'Governed by the . Community' could be added 
to explain.


When a name is stated only in one language, one can add after a ' - '  
the second language and then also both name:nl and name:fr tags.


User RoRay is (ignorent or deliberatly) out of line. I will send him a 
PM too.

So in this case, if the order was changed, this for me is

I would map all 'roads'  as

foot=yes
gocart??=yes
and maybe also
type=traffic_education
Enclose it with leisure=track or leisure=playground and give that the

(I would not bother with traffic signs, 'fun street names' and turn 
restrictions)

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Difference between OSM and BING background

2011-08-08 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Hi,

The difference shows in PotLatch 2.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.176782lon=4.445492zoom=18layers=M
In Potlatch the alignment with Yahoo is still correct.
For other areas (Loonbeek) the alignment witth Bing is still correct.
Probably Bing updated its images for some part of the Antwerp area and 
it has some alignment problems.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?editor=potlatch2lat=51.177744lon=4.436042zoom=18node=1206610666
The church is duplicated at the right, but due to the advanced 
stitching, the tile borders are hard to see, even with some streets 
cutted off.

The misalignment shows on all zoom levels.
I assume this will be corrected in a few days.
The JOSM editor has some functions to align the background, but I don't 
recommend it to go into that.


Regards,
Gerard.

I downloaded the gpx file  from Zuid-Dijleland. I was hoping

The result was disappointing (import in Garmin RoadTrip). Too
many routes, even non-existing, waypoints without the number
of the knooppunt.

Is there a better way to retrieve the information as GPX ? I
would already be happy with the knooppunten alone, without the
routes between them.
I've tried exporting them from JOSM, but this also looses the
number (which only exists as rwn_ref).

[OSM-talk-be] Problems with JOSM's unwanted behaviour.

2011-07-11 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Hi,

(Warning: long and difficult subject matter ahead! :-)  )

I love to work with JOSM, but I have two problems with JOSM.

- When you start drawing a way somewhere in a node, JOSM always assumes 
you want to continue some way already present.
This is very annoying and unproductive, because this is nearly always 
not what you wanted or intended.


- When you split a way, the old id (and by consequence its history) are 
always in the first part, and the second part gets a new id.
This way the history and id can be left by the smallest part. It should 
always assigned to the  biggest part.


Togheter this combination defeats totally the wiki nature of OSM by 
disguising  the history of one road to some totally unrelated road in 
the neighbourhood, also making changes to roads the user never intended 
to edit.

An example is in changeset
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/7203063
First there was the Verstrekenstraat.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/98440181
When the user TAA tried to add a track,
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/82861117
from this crossing
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/298362740
JOSM maked this as a continuation of the Verstrekenstraat
It was then splitted and adapted to track by the user who didn't want 
this long Verstrekenstraat.
But as this road had the node, where the drawing took place, as starting 
node, the track end became the new starting node of the resulting way 
and got after the split the id of the Verstrekenstraat.
After the split, (because the user wanted to add a track and not make a 
long Verstrekenstraat), JOSM moved the existing id (and history) to the 
new drawn track and maked a new road out of the already existing 
Verstrekenstraat by giving it a 0 id. In the history of the track , you 
see the original way of the Verstrekenstraat.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/82861117/history

An example of a node to test this unwanted behaviour is: 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/803205990 Suppose you want to 
add a track into the wood as a dead end. You select the node and then 
clicks the way drawing tool. Do a click in the wood (direction SE) and 
then escape to end drawing the segment and then you end up with an 
extended path of Voetweg 48.

Oh no, I wanted to add a track! Why is it not a blank road?
Oh, never mind, we split the result at the starting node and change 
properties of the new added part, which has now inherited the id and 
history of Voetweg 48. And on top of that the original Voetweg 48 will 
get id 0 and be presented from now on in the database as a new way 
created by you, while you even had no intention to modify it in the 
first place!!

BTW, also relations are inherited, making tails on it after the split.
I find this behaviour totally undesiable!

Another example to what mess this can lead is the Jachtdreef in 
Jezus-Eik (it still needs correction)
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/51768961/history 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/108859153/history

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/97836493/history

Conclusion:
- JOSM should only make continuations of ways on request by the user, eg 
by selecting them together with the ending node to draw from.
- For the sake of history, JOSM should give the existing id to the 
largest part of the road of a split and not defaulting to the first part.


As stopgap for the second point, I try to do a reverse of the road 
before and after the split, when I notice that the first part is very 
small..


What do you think?

I opened a ticket for this, at JOSM, but it seems a 'feature' and not a 
bug and the developer won't fix.

Press Ctrl while clicking on the end note, JOSM will start a new way.

No, this leads to a double node and the way is not connected to the 
crossing.


You can also start your new way at the second node, and then connect it to  
the end of the  other way.


I think I've seen JOSM doing  a continuation that way to, but it doesn't 
seem to happen in the example node.
However when you need to make a way between two crossings, it can come 
from either side.

For that, I temporarily reverse the way to have the history on the good 
part, then reverse both part back (but this is only important for ways where 
the orientation matters, like oneways or rivers).
 

That's what i try to do, when paying attention to it, but I feel JOSM 
should do it automatically.

This is exactly what I described.

I don't want to go into this futher, but your interpretations of my

- The example in the ticket (starting from a node in the middle of a way 
produces a continuation) is convoluted as well.
- However, it's made out to appear that selecting a non-endpoint node of 
a way and then drawing from that will produce a continuation. Not so.



As most often, you intend to add a new road, the default behaviour
should be like that.
   



I think it comes down to being of another mindset. For me, clicking an end
node to continue that way seems the natural thing to do. If it so happens
that end node is part of a crossing, so be it. I have to remember to use
ALT if I want to start a new way at the crossing.

Of course, I could be entirely spoilt from having worked this way in JOSM
for years. I thought Potlatch did the exact same thing.

No, it does not ! Tested with the example node and an unnamed new road 
was created (you need shift to start drawing from the selected node) in 
Potlatch 2.

Can you even do continuation of an existing road in Potlatch?


What is the
handling in Merkaartor for this situation?

According to the docs, you have the choice by having the node selected 
or not, when creating a new road..

http://merkaartor.be/wiki/merkaartor/Documentation#Creating-a-new-way
and the paragraph below
http://merkaartor.be/wiki/merkaartor/Documentation#Continuing-an-existing-way-at-either-end

JOSM will always make a continuation unless stopped by the ALT-key.


(Count once your ways when editing and compare extended existing versus
added new ways)
   



That's not a fair comparison.

Often enough when adding new ways, you are *not* at a junction with
another way endpoint. You might be starting a new way in the middle of
nowhere, or branching off of another way, but *not* at a junction.

In my experience, when adding new ways, starting one at an 'endpoint
junction' is the exception.

This makes it even more execptional and illogical, that when you are 
drawing, you get always a new way and suddenly a new way fails and your 
added way is incorporated in an existing way.
But OK, narrow down the counts just  for the cases in which JOSM would 
be doing automatic prolongation and I'm still confident that you would 
see you are more using the ALT key then not, when adding way segments.



The splitting and additional obfuscating happens, while this seems the
obvious way for most users of getting out of this unexpected alongation.
For some messy results see my examples Verstrekenstraat and Jachtdreef.
   



I can actually agree with your other point, being that when splitting a
way, the existing ID should stay with the longest fragment. You might
modify your JOSM ticket to emphasize that part, or perhaps even better:
start a new ticket with just that request (with a reference to the current
ticket).
 


I won't .
If no other users are asking, the developer won't change its point of 
view or anything in JOSM regarding these two problems..

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Weide

2011-06-30 Thread Gerard Vanderveken
Meadow is de algemene term voor grasland. Dit kan zowel een weide, 
hooiland, als een natuurlijk, wild stuk grasgebied zijn.
Pasture is specifiek een weide, dus een omheind grasveld waar dieren op 
grazen.
Op veel plaatsen is ook de weide en het hooiland mee ingemapt met de 
velden onder het algemene farmland. (is eigenlijk bijna alles wat niet 
bebouwd is, bebost is of onder water staat :-) )
Het is natuurlijk ook zo dat de indeling van veld, hooiland of weide, 
naargelang het uitkomt voor de boer, wel eens durft te veranderen en dan 
is farmland (landbouwgebied) altijd correct.

I don't know if it's realistic, but maybe the German language area
could be the only thing mapped at level 5, the other borders being
obvious?

If it's not, I stand by my proposition to tag language areas (in the
constitutional sense) instead of communities.

We are not responsible for the choices made by the governement ;-) , we 
map (the mess) as it is.


There is no German region, and thus no boundary at level 4.
There is only the community at level 5 comprising the Muncipalities of 
Amel, Büllingen, Burg-Reuland, Bütgenbach, Eupen, Kelmis, Lontzen, 
Raeren und St.Vith


Because at the governement the regions and communities are on equal 
level and we have choosen in OSM to give them a different level (which I 
support), you can not make assumptions on level 4 areas comprising level 
5 things and vice versa. So the whole discussion with overlaps etc in 
OSM is pointless. Belgium is illogical and complicated and this will 
also show on the mapping.


[Joking]
(If someone is involved in the current governement negociations, maybe 
they can ask for a region and province, etc  for Brussels and the German 
East Kantons too, so we can map this properly at all levels?)

[/Joking]

The language regions should IMHO not be mapped , and certainly not on 
the administrative boundary level.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Workshop Trage Wegen

2011-06-11 Thread Gerard Vanderveken
I think it is a good idea to name the unnamed paths and tracks to its 
Voetweg and Buurtweg name from the Atlas if these roads exists there.
Many muncipalities are rediscovering, revaluating and inventarising 
these old and sometimes almost forgotten and often neglected roads.
Many times these unnamed paths get then signs with their Atlas name and 
number.
Sometimes when there is a local name in speaking language, the restored 
path will be baptised with that name. In that case we alter the name in 
OSM to that new name.


It will help these task groups a lot, if they find on our maps already 
an inventory of the still existing roads.
Our maps are also ready to use in displaying particular roads or road 
segments on their websites.
That way it will also spread OSM to the general public and in return we 
may benefit with survey materials from them or get some new mappers.


To me, it makes perfect sense to give all unnamed roads in OSM (tracks 
and paths) that exists in the Atlas also their Atlas name and number as 
name.

Gerard.

There is a sign with that name. The sign on the southern end was

http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=50.88679lon=4.58564zoom=16layers=M
   


In fact, using the name tag is mainly a bad idea because in the Atlas
der Buurtwegen/Atlas des Chemins Vicinaux every chemin/sentier has a
name along with the number. But as far as I know those names are not
used today except when they survived time and are still used as
regular street names. As an example, the street where I live is in the
atlas Chemin no. 3 and has the name Oudenpontweg. Today it is a
regular street of which the major part is named Kerkstraat and a
minor part Oude Pontweg.

Of course, the atlas is only interesting for what is today a path-like
thing. For those I have never seen a use of the name from the atlas.
In e.g. community councils it is always the number that is mentioned.

Comunities are made up of people, not of area. So putting
communitie-borders on the map is kind of insane.
   


In terms of boundaries, the belgian constitution defines four
linguistic areas (régions linguistiques/taalgebieden) but not
communities as geographical entities.

See Art. 4 :
http://www.senate.be/doc/const_nl.html#t1
http://www.senate.be/doc/const_fr.html#t1
http://www.senate.be/deutsch/const_de.html#t1

They are all contained into regional boundaries and are identical to
the regions except for the deutsche Sprachgebiet.

I think that's what should be mapped at that level (be it 4 or 5) and
it would solve the overlap problem.
 


The idea was to map the communities according to those language areas. If
everyone agrees to map these language areas instead of communities, fine by
me, but I just thought it would be odd to see something like région bilingue
de Bruxelles-Capitale - tweetalige gebied Brussel-Hoofdstad appear on the
map,
   



Sure it's not pretty, but possibly less odd than overlapping areas and
bigger sublevels than their upper counterparts.
Maybe the name could be reduced to something like Région de
Bruxelles-Capitale - Brussel-Hoofdstad since the bilingual aspect can
be implied by the double name.

 


and because it then looks like the maps you can find on
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communities,_regions_and_language_areas_of_Belgium
which are the maps everyone learns it with at school as well.
   



That's probably an oversimplification, the maps are showing competence
areas, not areas per se.
Also, I don't know that any OSM renderer shows overlapping areas with
a hatched texture.

But yeah, It's complicated and I'm not sure everyone would agree one
way or another.
It will look strange and complex in both cases, but so is reality :)

In fact for the governement, there are no overlaps. The administrative 
level for federal, community and region is equal and shared.
However in OSM, we can not share these levels and so we have choosen 
that federal has level 2, region has 4 and community has 5 .
(in the wiki 5 is mentioned as communities/provinces, but I would state 
there simply 'language communnity', because provinces has nothing to do 
with that)
Further on, there are two administrative sublevels, provinces (6) and 
muncipalities (8).
The level between 6 and 8, arrondissement (7) is more a judicial or 
political (voting) level.

I don't know if we realy have to map that as administrative boundary.
(You have also another level between muncipality and arrondissement, not 
yet defined in OSM and that is the kanton)


As for the ordering of the levels, relations can lists others as subareas.

According to the law, Belgium has 3 regions (Vlaanderen, Wallonië en 
Brussel) which are formed by provinces (except Brussels) and 3 
communnities responsible for their part of the 4 language regions which 
are all formed by the muncipalities.

What should we map from this?
- the regions (level 4) as subarea of Belgium (2)
- the provinces (level 6) as subarea of the regions (4)
- the muncipalities (level 8) as subarea of the provinces (6) and 
communities (5) (and eventually the arrondissements (7))
I don't think that it will add anything, but confusion by defining other 
levels as subarea to certain levels as eg communities to Belgium or 
arrondissements to provinces.

Maybe this could also as guidelines be added to the wiki.

I see that the French Community for the moment incorporates the German  
Community (Muncipalities: Amel, Büllingen, Burg-Reuland, Bütgenbach, 
Eupen, Kelmis, Lontzen, Raeren und St.Vith)

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/78967
These muncipalities need some borders as they seems now to be confined 
in Verviers.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1407211
This is not correct.
Seems also that the German Community itself is not yet defined
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Belgium/Boundaries#Communities_.28Gemeenschappen_.2F_Communaut.C3.A9s_.2F_Gemeinschaften.29

Some communities has language facilities for other language groups, and 
altough the other community may have some competences there as 
organising school, does not mean that this muncipality is also part of 
that community. I don't think there is a mapping of these language 
facilities in OSM or that it should be desirable.


Other levels are the villages (9) which form the muncipalities (8) and 
were independent muncipalities before the reform of 1977

eg Boechout
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/76297
in Boechout
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/76278 
These could be listed as subarea in the relation too.


Level 10 could be used for hamlets, these are small local communities, 
often some residential landuse around a little church or

A lake is usually natural=water. A Visput would probably get 
sport=fishing added to it. If there is only one kind of fish set out 
in it, you might add produce=carp or produce=trout (forel), but that 
tag is usually used for crops, if I'm not mistaken. For the area 
around it, you could use a multipolygon, or a site relation. In a 
multipolygon you can only add inner/outer roles, which is great for 
landuse and natural places. To a site relation you can add the 
perimeter and the entrances as roles and other things like parking 
lots (without roles).

There are two things wrong:
- The antenna at the site of BIPT is placed not on the roof of the

Google map with satelite view).

(Are the antennas in front of the building against the wall?)
- The street  before the cafe in OSM is running through this terrace 
(see Bing sattelite view).

(The way is not actualy a street but the border of the market place)
the actual street should be located more south-west.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/91685551
Why do you convert the location in degrees, minutes and seconds as the 
BIPT site has already 2 formats?

Hello everybody, Hello Pol,

i should want to question the accuracy of the data. I have seen
(before Pol deleted the data) one of the antenna points on the
(openstreetmap) Grand-Place de Mons, in JOSM, with Bing aerial as
background. The point is café Le Central, at the corner of Grand
Place with rue de Nimy.  I suppose the Antenna is on the roof,
but it appeared a few meters on the Grand Place, with a
difference of about 5-10m compare to the Bing images.

What is wrong (or imprecise)  : antenna coordinates or Bing
position ? 


In order to investigate Bing positionning around Mons, I checked
against a geodetic point from ign/ngi (www.ngi.be
http://www.ngi.be), using Fiche Planimétrique45D06C1, with a
survey point at position N 50.47149281234526 E 4.028218331187543
(Obourg). It seems that the error is less than 1-2 meters.
 
My naive first conclusion is that  the accuracy of the antenna

positions could be quite poor, specially in dense area (towns or
cities). This could result to absurd situations like antenna on
streets.

Maybe it could be interesting to use a script to analyse distance
of antenna (from the data files) with nearest streets ?  or
another standard procedure ?

Hi and Welcome!

I assume you use the Atlas for looking up 'trage wegen' (slow roads)
Then it is as said  in full Voetweg (sentier) or Buurtweg (chemin) 
followed by a number eg Voetweg 23

Example of Sint-Agatha-Rode (and area around)
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=50.77504lon=4.63516zoom=15layers=M
Mosttimes they are in agricultural areas, because in the villages,  
roads are paved and have names of their own.
So they will be mosttimes  tagged as track when there is a 'karrespoor' 
or as  path if it is smaller (only foot  and/or bike).
If it is paved, it can be a minor or unclassified.road, but then it will 
probably be named.
Footway and cycleway are tags for (mosttimes) paved paths inside the 
villages dedicated for pedestrians and cyclists by the round blue 
traffic signs.


JOSM is the editor of choice.

Regards,
Gerard.

Hi,

Tags are good.
Except segregated = no is only to be used with footway and cycleway.
So, delete this tag.

The name in full, name = Buurtweg 23
I don't know where you get this BW23 from. It is not indicated as such 
in the atlas:

http://gis1.provant.be/Geoloketten/geoloket.jsp?geoloketid=55

surface = unpaved is good unless you know it more specific and then you 
can specify  dirt,  grass, gravel, etc.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:surface?uselang=nl
For tracks you can also use the  tracktype

Blijkbaar geimporteerd van een externe bron. Iets van vliegaktiviteit 
op die
plaats (in het verleden) vindt ik op het web niet terug. Een 
vliegplein -
zelfs voor modelvliegtuigjes - is er me niet bekend. Op de 
luchtfoto's staan

er in de buurt alleen tractorsporen.



Er is daar inderdaad ooit een privé ULM-strip geweest, heeft ooit ook 
in de AIP* gestaan maar is er nu niet meer te vinden. Ik denk dat dit 
veilig kan verwijderd worden, zelfs als het nu nog in gebruik is dan 
is het niet-officieel en dus zonder enige waarde voor buitenstaanders.


Overigens: zulke terreintjes komen en gaan, er was er ooit eentje 
ergens in het Waasland, en een ander te Merchtem. Vandaag is er nog 
eentje in Neerpelt (EBNE)(51 12 43N - 005 28 43E), daar ligt zelfs een 
seinenveld; het heeft ook wat meer kans op een langer leven denk ik.


Bemerk dat België enkel vliegbewegingen toelaat, zelfs van ULM's en 
van radiobestuurde modellen, vanaf erkende terreinen. Dit in 
tegenstelling tot bv. Frankrijk waar ULM's vanaf privé-terrein mogen 
gevlogen worden.


Die hele import uit ourairports vind ik een spijtige zaak, al was het 
maar omdat ieder vliegterrein er airport wordt genoemd in de beste 
US-traditie. Op en.wikipedia is daar ook al flink over gediscuteerd.


Karel (ULM-piloot)(en aanspreekbaar voor AIP-informatie)

*de AIP is de VOLLEDIGE collectie van OFFICIELE 
burgerluchtvaartinformatie, en moet bestaan in elke lidstaat van de 
ICAO. Verstandige landen zetten hem gewoon publiekelijk online, in 
deze bananenrepubliek moet men er een toegang voor aanvragen. Wat dan 
weliswaar vlot en kosteloos verloopt...

Re: [OSM-talk-be] University of Delaware

2011-02-13 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Karel,

Ik kan je daar in helemaal bijtreden. 

Nu met de Bing sattelietbeelden is het mogelijk om  nog een boel 
straten, wegen en paden toe te voegen.

Ook nog een aantal reeds gemapte straten kunnen beter worden uitgelijnd.
Tip: Om straten zonder naam te vinden is er de handige validatie funktie 
in JOSM.

- Klik ergens op een witgedeelte, zodat er niets meer geselekteerd staat.
- Klik op validate
- Probeer zoveel mogelijk van de opgegeven fouten (kruisende wegen, 
wegen zonder naam, eindpunten bij een andere weg, ...) te herstellen of 
aan te vullen.


Het is ook aan de applikatieontwikkelaars om te bepalen welke gegevens 
precies nodig zijn voor een bepaalde toepassing.
Het heeft weinig zin om allerlei sleutels te gaan uitvinden om daarmee 
gegevens te gaan toevoegen, die misschien leuk staan in andere 
projekten, maar die dan binnen OSM niet gebruikt worden en alleen 
ballast vormen in de database.


mvg
Gerard.

Hoe zien jullie OSM in de toekomst, welke toepassingen enz. Als we

Filip, met alle respect maar ik vind dat dit geen prioriteit mag zijn. 
Hoo schoon ik het allemaal ook vind, we moeten de essentie van het

mag er zeker bijkomen, er is daar niets verkeerds aan. Integendeel, 
het is met zulke zaken dat men een buitenstaander kan overtuigen dat 
OSM een meerwaarde kan hebben boven de commerciële aanbieders.
Maar ons eerste doel moet zijn om een compleet stratenplan van België 
te hebben en daar zijn we nog héél ver vandaan.
Mijn eigen streefdoel is dan ook om zoveel mogelijk straten te mappen 
met de bare essential informatie: straatnaam, wegnummer indien 
toegekend, en classificatie - waarbij ik nog moeilijk doe over de 
nuances tussen residential-unclassified C. Zaken die ik er soms 
bijzet zijn points of interest zoals winkels, scholen, horeca; en 
tegenwoordig ook al eens wat huisnummers.
Let wel dit is slechts mijn visie; bovenal moet iedere toevoeging van 
correcte en relevante informatie op prijs worden gesteld. Eenieder 
stelt zijn eigen prioriteiten, alleen vind ik het spijtig dat er veel 
energie gaat naar zaken die _in_mijn_ogen_ bijkomstig zijn, terwijl er 
nog zoveel essentieel werk ligt te wachten.

really grateful with Bing's decision to let us use their imagery.


I noticed that around Leuven/Diest all the imagery is 3 years old. Of 
course some things have changed in the mean time, but mostly it's very 
useable and certainly better than nothing at all.


I try to make landuses as big as possible and I do connect it to the 
highways. It gives the best result when exporting to PDF and printing 
them, especially at high zoom levels. When working on a region I first 
trace the smaller features like buildings, orchards, forests, then 
residential/commercial landuse, then farmland. in between.


The quality of the map is increasing tremendously, hopefully the

Hi,
I think the road is wrong classified.

It should be residential and part of the Celestijnenlaan and not trunk_link
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/72912809
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/3877191
Because that is what it is there: a crossing between the Celestijnenlaan

a small junction way
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/8288162 exists between the
two parts of the Koning Boudewijnlaan (or Celestijnenlaan as you wish

This way is currently tagged as trunk_link
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Link_(highway).  However, (at
least in Belgium) trunk roads are prohibited for bicycles.
Indeed, if you try to create the shortest cycle route from
Celestijnenlaan (South) to Celestijnenlaan (North), you end up with

So it seems like trunk_link ways are also bicycles prohibited.  Does
anyone have a suggestion/thought on how to fix this?

- Changing trunk_link into primary_link seems weird (and only solves
the problem locally)
- Altering the bicycles prohibited behaviour of trunk_link sections
seems to be an option, but I don't know if this is the best thing to
do and whom to contact for that?
- Creating a separate cycleway might solve the problem locally (and
temporarily) but not in other places where the issue might exist.

Better suggestions welcome.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Simpele vragen van simpele mapper

2010-11-20 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

Ik apprecieer jullie werk ook ten zeerste!
Als iemand een opmerking maakt , kan je dat op twee manieren opvatten:
- een afkeuring van je inpanningen.
- een mogelijkheid om je te helpen je werk te verbeteren.
Laat mij duidelijk zijn: het eerste is nooit mijn bedoeling en het 
tweede is mijn intentie geweest.


Het unieke van OSM  is dat het niet alleen een kaart is, maar het houdt 
ook de gegevens op een Wiki manier met geschiedenis bij.
Eerst wissen en dan opnieuw tekenen 'verslaat'  deze strategie / dit 
opzet, vandaar mijn opmerking.


Ik ben niet zo bekend in Balen, maar ik vermoed dat je bedoelt dat  de 
Kerkstraat eerst Markt moet heten en op het einde Rijsberg.

De ligging enz. lijkt mij voor de rest wel OK te zijn.

Ik werk meestal met JOSM en daar selekteer je gewoon de knoop waar de 
naam moet veranderen (of je voegt een nieuwe knoop op de bewuste plaats 
in) en dan klik je op wegen splitsen. bvb op de kruising met de 
Zandstraat(?) Selekteer dan het eerste stuk weg en wijzig de naam.
Daarna splits je verderop nogmaals bij het begin en einde van de 
Rijsberg (ontbrekende? kruising Deliestraat?, Rijsberg )
En je wijzigt de name tag in Kerkstraat (hoofdletter) en voor het 
volgende stuk in Rijsberg, enz.
Als je daarna naar de geschiedenis van de Kerkstraat gaat kijken, zie je 
dat ze veel korter is geworden (minder knopen) en in de vorige versie 
zie je al de vroegere knopen nog wel staan met daarnaast de vermelding 
(onderdeel van weg Markt of Rijsberg).

Daaruit zie je dan duidelijk de evolutie die deze straat heeft meegemaakt.

Voorbeeld is dit ingekort stukje Koxberg.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/37277264/history
Het andere en nu afgesplitste stuk was eigenlijk een stuk van de 
Stroobantsstraat.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/40608456

Zelfde manier van splitsen gebruik je ook als er bepaalde tags maar 
gelden voor een stuk van de weg bvb maxspeed=50 of alleen een gedeelte 
van de weg moet toebehoren aan een relatie bvb fiets- of busroute.


Ligt de straat niet helemaal korrekt, versleep je een beetje aan de 
knopen, of je trekt de middenstreep naar de plaats waar een bijkomende 
knoop gewenst is.


Bedoeling is dat je zoveel mogelijk de reeds bestaande  wegen en 
knoopunten behoudt.
Bedenk ook dat iets uitwissen en het daarna hertekenen, op een manier 
ook het vorige werk een stuk uitwist en op die manier een miskenning 
inhoudt van de goedbedoelde inspanningen van de vorige kaarttekenaar, 
terwijl je het stuk weg door gebrek aan geschiedenis alleen voor jezelf 
opeist..


Keep up the good work!
mvg
Gerard.

oplossing dan deze erg lang Kerstraat verwijderen, en dan apart

Van hun luchtfoto's komt het duidelijk niet.
Ik vermoed dat ze dus oude kadaster plannen op de kop hebben kunnen 
tikken.

Kadaster plannen zijn trouwens publiek beschikbaar en op te vragen.
Men vraagt wel een administratieve taks voor het afdrukken van een stuk.

 Even - in Antwerpen - een paar recente veranderingen bekeken op

 - zone MAS is nog de oude afgebroken bebouwing getekend
 - nieuw justitiepaleis komt nog niet voor
 - enkele gesloopte gebouwen voor de Lange Wapper staan er nog
wel op.

 Deze zaken zijn gelijk op beide kaarten. Dus mn vermoeden dat

 Even een paar /niet/-recente dingen bekeken.

 - trapvormig schoolgebouw is ondertussen toch zeeeker +15 jaar oud,
 niet gerenderd
 - derde scoutslokaal (naast de kerk, +- vierkant, puntdak) is ook al
 +15 jaar oud, niet getekend.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Busroutes

2010-11-13 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

There is always a copyright, on data, and in fact on everything written.
Depending on the source and its associated license, we are allowed to 
use it in OSM.


Strictly seen the numbers and other texts on the bus, sign poles and 
shedules are written by De Lijn and they do also have the copyright to it.
(Must check it once, but I assume it may explicitly be marked on their 
shedules with the copyright symbol ©, altough this marking is not needed 
to own the copyright. )


They are intended to inform the public, but this does not mean that you 
have the right to duplicate for instance the complete shedules and make 
them public available.
(I think you will run into big trouble by making similar data as what is 
specified in their 'dienstroosters' available in a book or on a website 
without having the proper authorisation from De Lijn.
And in the same way, it is not because a movie is showed to the public 
that you may duplicate it.
Without some additional legislation to have automatic public domain for 
all data from public bodies, it makes no difference if the copyright is 
owned by a public or private company.)


Some things like the line numbers and names of the routes could be by 
their nature considered as common knowledge and thus public domain, but 
being public domain is AFAIK not the case for the 4 digit number and its 
source for line and stop numbers.

They should therefore not to be used in OSM

(Streetnames (which are the core of OSM) are different in that respect 
as they are given/named by the public and exists for a very long time.)

There's no copyright on factual data. The reason why we cannot import the data 
from De Lijn is because of database rights (*).

(*) actually, some people argue that this data doesn't qualify to be under 
database right, but that's another discussion.

[OSM-talk-be] Busroutes

2010-11-12 Thread Gerard Vanderveken

I think you are making it all too complicated.

For most bus routes only 1 relation is sufficient.
There is no reason for doubling all routes by default.

Also making relations members of other relations is a mistake.
The data of OSM is flat and not layered.
See also Members of a route:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:route#Members
These are only ways (routes) and stops (points).

Also the renderers do not take into account these child relations:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=50.8752lon=4.6983zoom=14layers=Mrelation=1269869
Even not the demo project for public transport routes..
http://3liz.fr/public/osmtransport/index.php?country=Belgiumlocation=Overijse
- drag map to Leuven - click + buslines - click null

Also when you request info of a street or stop, you see immediate which
routes are passing  and you do not need to click all relations to see if
they contain other routes.

We should only map the permanent location of a route.
Temporary deviations are not needed. If a traveler goes to the stop, he
will retrieve an info board of De Lijn saying that the halt is
suspended/replaced.

For alternatives and variations there is an alternative tag.
For shorter routes, it is up to the traveler, to inform him on the times
when the bus services the required stops.

For the time being, there are no good possibilities to incorporate 
shedules etc in OSM.

Making some preparations to facilitate this is futile, because this
surpasses the normal mapping properties. Probably the needed data and/or
its form will also be determined by the application that will make them
available.
You could for example starting by using the opening hours tag and thus
indicating for a bus stop all the times when a bus passes.
Then you envisage a lot of problems:  the stop can be serviced by
several lines, there are normal days and school days, night bus, ...
To have all this in one tag or several tags, makes always a big list of
data, which will be to entered very punctual to be usable.
And the question is of any application, will be able to make good use of
it and not require another format.

To support this manually is impossible. To import it, you need clearence.
To show it, you need applications.
None of them are for the moment envisaged, so a link to the webaddress
of the routes its dienstregeling will be at the time being the best to 
offer eg:

http://reisinfo.delijn.be/dienstregelingen/
Also the amount of data is also substantial, which may not be desired to
incorporate it yet at this time.

Also the last days, the names  of the relations are changed  with
internal numbers of  De Lijn.
This may confuse the user who will not retrieve the numbers as used on
the bus, road maps, stop signs, etc by De Lijn.
The name should be clear so that a user can easy retrieve ithe presence
of a route. (Else he could start to map again the line and afterwards
discover that his work was in vain)
Furthermore, I believe these data are not public available and retrieved
from an illegal database file, where we have no copyright to.

So, I recommend:
- to use only one relation per route
- delete the doubles (backward routes).
- delete child relations and add their streets and stops to the main
relation
- use the displayed route numbering (=ref) in the name of the route.
- delete data were we have no copyright for.
