[OSM-talk] How to reset JOSM password?
Hi everyone. After not using josm for a month or two I am no longer able to upload new data. The authentication fails and I can't figure why. Where can I reset the password? I found where to reset the password of OSM and [EMAIL PROTECTED] but not of JOSM (is it the same one of OSM? It doesn't work for me) Thank you ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
[OSM-talk] Google sat images in JOSM
Is there any way to view Google sat images at OSM? The Landsat coverage of my area is in very low resolution. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
[OSM-talk] Wide roads and traffic signals
Hi everyone, I am trying to map my area (that is very sparsely mapped in OSM currently), so I bought a GPS device and started cycling / driving around and edit my tracks. The results so far can be seen at http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=32.1878&lon=34.8714&zoom=14&layers=B00FT (Notice that the street names is not shown in Mapnik but only in Osmarender) My questions: 1. How do I map a wide road with a separation (line of trees) between the two directions? Something like: -->-->-->-->-->--> -->-->-->-->-->--> * * * * * * * * <--<--<--<--<--<-- <--<--<--<--<--<-- Do I set it as a one two-way road or two one-way roads? 2. If I set it as two separate ways, how do I mark traffic signals (traffic lights) where two such roads cross each other? ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
[OSM-talk] mapping resolution
Hi everyone, I'm sure this issue was raised before but I can't find the info I need so please summarize it or direct me to it. I got my first gps device (Garmin III+) and I started to map my area. I don't know what is "the best" sampling interval so I set it to 5m. The problem is that when I upload the data to JOSM I see some roads as some (~parallel) tracks for every time I've passed there. Is there a way to merge these tracks? Is it a matter of the selected resolution? Thanks, Moshe ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
[OSM-talk] Mapnik: right-to-left labels are printed backward
Hebrew and Arabic labels have to be printed in right-to-left order, but are reversed by Mapnik. See the differences between the way they are printed in the Mapnik (incorrect) and Osmarenderer (correct) layers. Hebrew: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=31.6786&lon=34.5695&zoom=14 Arabic: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=33.8935&lon=35.4925&zoom=12 Moshe ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
[OSM-talk] Label inconsistency: right-to-left label is printed backward
When a place is labeled in Hebrew (which is written right-to-left) it appears correctly in the [EMAIL PROTECTED] browser, but backward in OSM slippy map. For example, see how the label of the city of Ashkelon is printed in each map: Correct: http://tah.openstreetmap.org/Browse/?x=4882&y=3335&z=13&layer=tile Incorrect: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=32.634&lon=35.2967&zoom=12 How can this be fixed? Is this is a problem with the SVG renderer? Cheers, Moshe ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
[OSM-talk] Text alignment in the Wiki
Hi everyone, I've started translating some of OSM wiki pages to Hebrew, however, I can't find a way to align the text to the right. I found that in wikipedia it is done by the tag , but the div tag is rejected by the system when I try to submit the changes. Is there a way to declare a page as right-to-left aligned? Is there another tag or a way to declare align="right" somewhere? Thanks Moshe ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
Re: [OSM-talk] josm: jump to selection
Also, I think it'd be a good idea to zoom on the selection when it is double-clicked. P.S. Why does the software uses numbers to perform actions (e.g. '3' for "Zoom to Selection") and not the function keys (e.g. 'F3')?

Re: [OSM-talk] josm: jump to selection
Naturally, a pop-up should appear when a user right-clicks on an item at the "Current Selection" window, "Validation Error" window, etc. Also, a "zoom to layer" should be pop-up whenever someone right-click on a layer at the "Layer" window.

Re: [OSM-talk] josm: jump to selection
Great, thanks, I think such an option should be added in a pop-up menu, where I'd expect to find it.

[OSM-talk] josm: jump to selection
Hi, I wonder if it is possible to "jump to selection" in JOSM, that is, after I run a search and get results, I want to click on one of the results and see it in the map. Currently, selecting an item will select it in the map (painting it in yellow) but will not zoom to it, make it hard to spot. Moreover, the item might not even be in the current view boundaries. Suppose I'm looking for a street with a cert in name in a big city, how can I focus on it?

Re: [OSM-talk] Rendering in a non-default language
I am a newbie in OSM and while I've read many wiki pages and some code I realize that I still don't know much about the different tools and configurations. I guess thats the upside and the downside of an opensource project. Look at the various options: mapnik, kosmos, osmrenderer. Don't you think it would be nice to have an "OSM studio" that will let you do most of the thing visually, combining some tools (Josm, [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc.) with some nice dialogs, buttons and checkboxes? And I assumed all I had to do is to modify the osmrenderer xslt somehow and run [EMAIL PROTECTED] locally.

[OSM-talk] Rendering in a non-default language
Hi Everyone, I am interested in rendering a map with the street names and places printed in Hebrew. So for example, if there is a place with: name=Jerusalem name:en=Jerusalem name:he=ירושלים I want "ירושלים" to be printed, and only if "name:he" is not specified, default to "name". Can this be achieved? How? Thanks, Moshe ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
[OSM-talk] freemap.co.il
There was a long discussion (in Hebrew) at the forum of freemap.co.il about the license and the availability of the data. As far as I can understand from the answer that Ehud Shabtai posted (please correct me if I'm wrong) is that: 1. The code of the software is free under dual license (GPL and commercial) 2. The map (as an image) is promised to be free for use. 3. The data of the map (the gpx logs, features, etc.), are not free and are at his own possession, and he keeps the right to sell it to commercial products) I find the 3rd point very problematic, on one the first hand he'd put a lot of effort in building the site, improving the software, promoting it, collecting the data, rendering and storing everything. But on the other hand, people don't get access to gpx data they and others contributed to the project. I believe that a major aspect of the OSM project is the availability of the raw data, letting you adjust it to your own needs, adding layers and developing tools as routing and such. By giving only the cooked image, freemap.co.il lack these advantages, and as a developer and a user, I find it very problematic. I think that the work done in freemap.co.il by Ehud is really great, but if I have to choose, I prefer OSM although its coverage of Israel is very bad right now and a lot of work still to be done.
