Ok of course, but the size of the entity to be named isn't determined by
the name-tag I choose rather than e.g. by place=hamlet/city/..., isn't it?

Re: [OSM-talk] loc_name vs. reg_name

Hi!

Ok, basically I understand the difference between "local" and "regional".

But actually I thought that this/these tags are used for names of
entities which are used by locals (in contrast to the official name of
something).

In this case, having two such tags would imply that there are locals who
call an entity by loc_name. And that there are other locals which are
"not so local" as the previous ones (not living directly there) which
call the same entity "reg_name".

Is that correct?

Bernhard

 We already have problems with the update cycle differences of the

To define a specific direction for the ways (like it is defined for the

The renderer can then algorithmically decide what is lake and what is land and 
we do not depend neither on the map editors' mapping strategies nor on those 
relations to define inner/outer/... which are only necessary because of the 
missing direction definition.

PS: I'm dealing with rendering since a long time, specifically with sea charts 
where depth contours with different fill colors are shown. And because there 
is no limit in how many shallow/deep water areas are within other shallow/deep 
water areas in the real world, the solution was to define a direction so that 
the renderer can decide on which side of a way is the deep/shallow water. See 
this example: https://www.cypherpunk.at/download/smrender/samples/murter.pdf

 Do you use only the seamark lights that don't have the fixme tag? We still

No, all seamarks are rendered independently of the fixme tag.

 Hi Bernhard,
 
 thanks for your reply. This message has become longer than I initially
 expected, as I added some general thoughts of mine. Please do feel free to
 ignore those and concentrate on open questions. :)

Hi Arne,

I'll answer your mail completely, but in steps and not at once.

  However, as an IT guy I prefer the Openseamp scheme to the offical one
  because it is more modular from a technical point of view.
 
 How is it more modular? How would modularity be useful in a practical
 sense? Can you provide an example or use case?
 
 Being an IT guy myself, I think that maintainability (i. e. ease-of-use) of
 source code is very important. With tags being OSM's source code, this
 makes me a big fan of the pragmatism that generally governs the OSM
 community's approach to finding and agreeing upon new tags.
 
 That's also why I'd like to see OSM tags for marine data that are
 conceptually similar to OSM tags for land data. And that's also why I have
 every expectation that we'll eventually arrive at such a tagging scheme,
 however it may look. :)


In the Openseamap scheme everything is defined in the name of the key behind 
seamark: (e.g. seamark:light.., seamark:type..., seamark:topmark,...).
This generates some kind of hierarchy within a flat database and you can select 
all seamark relevant data out of the database by retrieving all tags starting 
with seamark:.

This is different to the official cbm proposal in which case you have to parse 
data before you can retrieve it because information about which tags are 
relevant is kept in the attribute values and the key names are not necessarily 
associated with each other (e.g. there is seamark, light, buoy,...).


I still have criticism on the Openseamap scheme, e.g. for a seamark being a 
buoy or a beacon is just a property, hence, including the property in the key 
name is bad practice. For example seamark:type=buoy_lateral, 
seamark:buoy_lateral.shape=someshape. IMO it should have been defined like 
this: seamark:type=buoy_lateral, seamark.shape=someshape.
BTW, this is also true for the cbm scheme but unfortunately I wasn't involved 
into development of neither of those schemes.

My conclusion is that Openseamap scheme isn't perfect but it is technically 
better designed.

However, both schemes are fine-grained enough to be automatically changed to 
some other, better scheme in future.


Best regards,
Bernhard

 Same here. I always knew that there wasn't anything near to consensus about
 much of anything on that front though, with a lot of bad blood in the
 German OSM community, which is one of the reasons why I shied away from
 getting involved until about now.
 
 Very frustrating situation indeed.
 
  Now I found out that there are two comparable but different and competing
  tagging schemes:
  
  * http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/marine-tagging
  * http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Lights_Data_Model
  
  The first one is used by freietonne.de the second one by openseamap.org.
  Consequently, there exist two disjoint marine maps.
 
 Right.
 
 New information (at least, new to some, including me) has surfaced on the
 German [Talk-de] OSM mailing list that says (paraphrasing) the first
 mentioned is the one and only official proposal (incidentally also used
 by FT, FreieTonne.de). The second link you mentioned is part of the scheme
 of the other project (OSeaM, openseamap.org).
 
 So it would appear that we actually have
 * one official proposal, currently under discussion (also used by FT)
 * one private scheme, with private tags (exclusively used by OSeaM)
 
 Now, the thing is I'm not really sure about this assessment. What I wrote
 above is my current understanding of the situation, which may be wrong.
 I'd appreciate input from FT or OSeaM project members on this matter, or
 really from anyone at all!
 
  This is extremely frustrating!
  Computers do not care about attribute names and we shouldn't also as long
  as both schemes fulfill the same requirements.
 
 This is not just a naming issue. The tagging concepts of the schemes are
 rather different (contrary to what has been alleged somewhere on the
 Wiki).
 
 There seems to be a lot of half knowledge and smattering among some of
 those who wrote on the Wiki on marine topics in the past, which of course
 is very conductive to misunderstandings. I believe this is part of what
 fuelled the conflicts between FT and OSeaM back then (but I was an
 observer in those conflicts only, so what do I know :) ).
 
 Anyway, one thing I find particularly remarkable is that on just about
 every one of the Wiki pages, someone wrote something about that this
 tagging scheme followed IHO standard S-57, and how important and cool
 that would be, while actually (and thankfully), none of those schemes even
 come close to S-57.
 
 S-57 is basically a soon-to-be-obsolete, proprietary and binary file
 format, so following it wouldn't really make a lot of sense for OSM. Not
 sure why so many people wrote that. Perhaps someone on this list is able
 to enlighten me?
 
 Cheers,
 Arne

Arne,

I'm a little bit more into details of all that, yet.
The approaches of FT and OpenSeamap are a little bit different. OpenSeamap uses 
the OSM database exclusively while FT has its own database (as far as I 
understood) and they put just some pieces of information into the OSM 
database. Also FT puts just an overlay on top of the Openstreetmap map but 
Openseamap completely renders a seamap with focus on seamap features.

Regarding the tagging schemes. Openseamap uses this proprietary seamark:*=* 
scheme but FT uses just a subset of the official proposal. There is page which 
documents it:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:FreieTonne/Symbole
(It is in German but if you take a brief overview you'll partially understand 
it (German words: Bake=beacon, Tonne=buoy, 
Leuchtfeuer=light,Rot=red,Weiß=white,Grün=green)).
This is the reason why I personally favor Openseamap more than FT. In 
addition, FT is focused more on inland waterways.

 A further question for me is what is official and what is private?
Both of those tagging schemes are similar although the structure is different, 
as you mentioned. And, what is IMO much more important, the Openseamap scheme 
is already rendered on OpenSeamap which is not true for the other one and I 
stick with the opinion of the Openseamp guys: a seamap should be rendered 
different than a street map because different objects are important.

However, as an IT guy I prefer the Openseamp scheme to the offical one because 
it is more modular from a technical point of view. Thus, I hope that people 
out there do not still ignore the Openseamap scheme. After all, I translated 
it into English ;)

Regarding S-57: I think what they mean is that they orient on the S-57 schemes 
in respect to which attributes exist on which objects.

Best regards,
Bernhard

I think that co-existence can just be a transitional solution until this is 
(sometimes hopefully) thrashed out.

After that a conversion from one format to the other one shouldn't be too 
complex. The cbm proposal and the Openseamark scheme are very compatible.
Joining FT symbols will get a little bit more tricky since it is not very

 I see I got a snowball running here, great guys. Continue on that. I can
 help out with some language makeup and corrections on the English language
 pages (Nautical Professional) but have little time to offer at the moment.
 I will also look into translating the important bits of it into Portuguese
 together with my other Portuguese translations allowing more
 contributions, also on marine mapping, from the portuguese speaking part
 of the world.

Aun,

Currently, we are working on the Lights Data Model 
(http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Lights_Data_Model) and the Beacon Data 
Model (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Beacon_Data_Model). The buoy will 
follow soon. These pages exist in English and German yet.

I hope that we can cleanup the Wiki a little bit after finished with 
translation and more detailed descriptions of that stuff.

Best regards,
Bernhard

 PS These tags are documented in german only, what about those OSMers that
 doesn't understand german, are we forced to use google translate to ready
 tag descriptions? If it was documented in english at least more of us could
 understand it and maybe even contribute with translations into some of our
 own languages.

Ok, we should be able to solve this problem ;)
I started a translation:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Lighthouse_Datamodel

The German version now exists twice. I'm not sure how to cleanup this in the 
wiki yet without breaking some link dependencies.

Beacons and buoys will follow.

Best regards,
Bernhard

 Nice work! I assume that you are user Rahra? - my OSM user name is Malcolmh
 
 I have done a few edits to 'colloqialise' the text.
 
 I am about to start a new data model page for other types of charted
 lights. I will spawn it from your translated lighthouse page.
 
 Thanks for giving me a start!
 

Yes, I am Rahra.
Thanks for your improvements to my translation.

I translated your Lights Datamodel back into German.
At the top of the page you refer to the lighthouse datamodel.

Don't you think that we shouldn't put the lighthouse also on that page?
Everything is there: light vessel, float, major, minor lights. I think we could 
put the lighthouse also there.

Bernhard

 Bernhard,
 
 The * is a wild card for the light number.
 The Render Hint has one additional parameter, the suggested radius of the
 sector arc that will appear on the chart. All the previous items are to
 create the annotation.

The render hint description also says Radius mit dem der Sektor gezeichnet 
wird. (radius of which the sector is painted).
What is the units of this hint? I assume it is not nautical miles.

Best regards,
Bernhard

[OSM-talk] Marine taggine/OpenSeamap

2010-08-04 Diskussionsfäden Bernhard R. Fischer
Hi!

Is there somewhere a documentation about which data model is actually used by 
OSeaM?

For hours, I searched through the wiki and I also downloaded some parts of the 
map using Josm to find out which tags are actually being used.

The wiki list several different data models and this is extremely confusing:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/marine-tagging
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:sea_mark
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Leuchtfeuer/Datenmodell
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Leuchtfeuer/S-57

Kind regards,
Bernhard

 Bernhard,
 
 The OpenSeaMap data model definitions are contained in three files:
 
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Tonne/Datenmodell
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Bake/Datenmodell
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Leuchtfeuer/Datenmodell
 
 You will note that all the key/value pairs are prefixed seamark: This is
 the namespace that the OpenSeaMap renderer uses. You may find nodes in the
 map that have other keys as well as seamark:-prefixed ones, but those keys
 are not parsed by OpenSeaMap.
 
 If you are interested in adding seamarks to the map, there is web-based
 editor and also a JOSM plugin. I am in the process of upgrading the plugin
  will check in the JAR as soon as I have finished testing it. In the
 meantime, you will find the existing ones on the openseamap.org web site.


Malcolm,

Thanks for your response, this is very helpful.
I know the Josm plugin and I tried to use it but it has very limited 
capabilities (e.g. I cannot add lighthouses).
Thus, I thought about building my own simple, script-based light tag 
generator.

What is the tag listed at the topic Render Hints 
(http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Leuchtfeuer/Datenmodell) good for?

seamark:light:#=*:colour:###,#:###,#:###

Isn't this a redundant definition of everything that is listed above it?
And what does the * stand for?

Best regards,
Bernhard

[OSM-talk] Outline of island does not change

2010-06-16 Diskussionsfäden Bernhard R. Fischer
Hi!

More than one month ago I tracked a small harbor in Croatia (Lucina, Dugi 
Otok) and edited and uploaded the new map data using Josm. Nevertheless, if I 
look at the map using the OSM online viewer the new outline of the island is 
not rendered. It still shows the old imprecise one.

What is the reason for that behavior?

Best regards,

Bernhard

[OSM-talk] Search index not updated?

2010-06-16 Diskussionsfäden Bernhard R. Fischer
Hi!

Several months ago I added some farms (place=farm) in my region. I also added 
names (name=... + place_name=...) as well as addresses using the addr:*= 
scheme. I also added roads with names.
Nevertheless, if I try to find them by using the search bar of the OSM online 
viewer they do not show up.

What am I doing wrong?

Best regards,
Bernhard

 You might also want to look at place=isolated_dwelling (and probably a
 subtag for the farm like isolated_dwelling=farm, and or
 landuse=farmyard, or building=farm, ...)

Martin,

Thanks FYI.
It is really very difficult to orient yourself in this jungle of available tags 
and if they are already accepted or just proposed.

I also tried to add some lights to the marine map but this is even more 
difficult. At least for me, it looks like if there are 5 different proposals 
for 
one and the same thing

Best regards,
Bernhard
