a fun way for checking the dataset would surely be to have OSM maps in
3d simulations or games, such as
http://torcs.sourceforge.net/ or
http://sourceforge.net/projects/trigger-rally/ (picked at random,
other targets are welcome)

Imagine roadsigns showing restrictions, place  street names,
buildings as blocks, srtm for general terrain relief, show landuse and
some natural features

A benefit would be to be able to make use JOSM remote control plugin
(or open up potlatch) to fix up spotted errors while game is paused :)

How about piste maps in Tux racer ? :D

Naahhh... I'm thinking in Grand Theft Auto: OSM. If just because the road 
network would allow the automata (cars and peds) to move around.

Whoa, that's a *cool* idea! (pun intended). This should be added to the list 
of student projects.

[OSM-talk] A project for winter - Building heights

2008-11-02 Thread OJ W
Now that the building-outlines have been done in London and elsewhere,
and with flight-simulator projects asking about 3D data, it might be
worth tagging the heights of some skyscrapers.

Every significant building has a wikipedia article, nearly all of
which include details of the height

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/8_Canada_Square

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Skyscrapers_by_city


what other tags can you think of for describing buildings?  Some
peoples' ideas are at:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Proposed_features/Building_attributes


To see progress in a city, Kosmos seems to be capable of drawing
things differently according to their height, e.g. there's an example
rule in:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Kosmos_AirNav_Rules#Tall_buildings



p.s. will anyone make an isometric slippy-map next?
