Re: [talk-au] Residential Coordinates

[Daniel O'Connor]

Perhaps a good use for this kind of data would be a feed of *buildings not
mapped*

IE:
 - Grab data as you are doing or via a platform like morph.io
 - Overpass queries to find out if there is any building geometry at given
coordinates
 - Produce an RSS feed or similar (Maproulette? To-fix?)

I manually do something similar with planningalerts, to find buildings
being demolished or built in my area.

The rental information itself is probably better in a separate repo - its
likely to change frequently with leases. A number of commercial data
providers sell this kind of thing; so there's obviously some use for it...
just perhaps not in OSM itself.

For OSM it would be far better to use the LIP Base map for the address data
and then use the LPI Imagery for the building footprint.

That aside and the scraping of the original data aside, would we even
want properties currently for rent in OSM. Seems like it's best done
as an external database to OSM?



Any building can be added with the address data .. if it is for sale, rent does 
not matter.
And I see benefit to OSM for having the address data within OSM.


The attribute of 'rental' in OSM?
I don't know, however I see no real reason why not to have it, only those 
concerned would be using that data.

I'd recommending reading up about Imports in OSM at
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import.

Neither the rental property data (since you say you scraped it, I'll
presume it's not under a compatible open license) nor the geocodes
from Bing maps are going to pass the License approval as per
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines#Step_3_-_License_approval

[talk-au] Residential Coordinates

[Timur Behlul]

Hi All,

I have been scraping rental properties off the net for an analysis I am
doing on Sydney. In the process I geo-coded these properties using Bing
Maps. There are around 100,000 properties.

Would this informaiton be useful. I can I upload it to OSM even though I
used Bing Maps to geo-code them?

Thanks,

Timur
