Sorry but it is an import and a survey.

source=TEC 2014-04 relates to the import of the TEC's data. 
source=TEC 2014-04 must be in TEC.osm.zip bus stops so
that the mapper copies it to OSM. When found in OSM, it means that
the bus stop can be removed from the file TEC.osm.zip which shows
the work that remains to do.  Same process for future versions.

  source=survey 2014-xx  relates to the location, shelter, bench
tags etc. that the mapper will add at the time of the import or
later and it is a survey.  It is the last time that this data was
verified and it helps mappers not to verify what has already been
verified.

There should also be a TEC 2014-04.osm.zip file containing
the original TEC data so that the user can compare that data with
the data he introduces, for example TEC's uppercase name and OSM's
lowercase name.
There will be later files like TEC 2014-10.osm.zip at which
time a new TEC.osm.zip will be created containing the new changes
that must be applied.
The user must also be able to see the lines drawn by TEC in case the
bus stops do not make the itinerary clear.
Here is a file of mine:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/ty49nmfdb2vfz4m/TEC_2014_04-Lignes.2.osm.bz2

What remains to be done before we can make realistic updates:

  publish TEC 2014-04.osm.zip (= present TEC.osm.zip +
following tags)
  
  add source=TEC 2014-04 to TEC 2014-04.osm.zip
  add source=survey 2014-04 to TEC
  2014-04.osm.zip
  add website tag
  
  new TEC.osm.zip = TEC 2014-04.osm.zip
  new TEC 2014-04.lines.osm.zip

Please note that the particular syntax of the tags is moot.
  But, please, make propositions instead of saying what it must not
  be (there are just too many).

Re: [OSM-talk-be] TEC Open Data: let's start !

2014-06-23 Thread Jo
Since I would prefer to keep things simple, or at least as simple as
possible, I'd prefer to work with one file.

To indicate that a stop is not in Openstreetmap yet, I tag it with odbl=new
when no stop with its ref is in the file I download from Overpass API.

This tag will be stripped automatically by JOSM before the data gets
uploaded, just like the created_by tag which I use to make street names
available to the person doing the import. They don't make sense in the
Brabant-Wallon file, but they seem to have helpful information in the
Charleroi file.

Since I'm a minimalist who'd prefer to put as few tags possible on stops,
platforms, stop positions, shelters, benches and waste baskets, I'd prefer
not to add source tags on each and every of the 7x? objects we'll be
adding to the DB. OK, I counted the stops of De Lijn in that number.

So I add source information on the changesets, which is the accepted
practice nowadays, at least that's what I read on the imports list.

If you want to add such tags, you can open the file, Ctrl-a to select all
objects. Add the tags you want and save the file.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] TEC Open Data: let's start !

2014-06-18 Thread Jo
I managed to get the script to the next 'level'. For lines for which all
stops are mapped, it's possible to create skeleton route relations for all
the variations.

See here for an example:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42418402/RoutesFor%20W%20BXL%20-%20Waterloo.osm

Give me a sign if you plan to actually use it. If you do, keep in mind 2
routes already exist for that line, which I created by adding the stops
manually. Those 2 contain ways too, of course. It takes a bit of fiddling
to add them to the route_master and transfer the stops from 2 of the
skeleton routes to them.

If you want other skeleton routes to experiment with, let me know. It's
easier when no routes for such a line exist yet in the OSM data. But then
you still have to add all the composing ways yourself, of course. In the
MAPCSS I have code to visually highlight all the stops when you temporarily
add odbl=yes as a tag to the route.

For those interested in the subject, I think it's best to simply show it
all during a Google hangout.

 Oh no!

 As there were as usual no replies on this list to my remarks about
 missing bus line numbers and accent-less uppercased place names, I

 points and they said that they will fix these problems, but no
 sooner than September.  I'll cc: you.

 I wonder if it wouldn't be wiser to let's start ! in September
 with that data rather than do it twice.


 Why would we be doing it twice? What they will provide sometime after
 September should have exactly the same contents as what my scripts are
 calculating from the data they provide.

 Anyway, I don't see why it was needed to bother TEC with this. They
 provide the data as is and it's our responsability to convert it to
 something we can work with. I'm actually rather surprised you got a
 positive answer from them.
I don't understand you.
Don't you find interesting if they used our lowercase names and we would
just have to copy theirs in the future rather that have to compare their
new uppercase names with the previous uppercase names to detect changes
and make the corresponding changes in our lowercase names?
More generally, don't you think that cooperation to synchronize with
them is fruitful?  If they know us, they might use our map and even, why
not, update it themselves.  Don't you like that hope?

 Whatever I try, I see accent-less uppercased place names in your file.


 What did you try? 2 files found their way into the zip file. I hope
 you were looking at the most recent one. I'm recreating them now.
Like a ⅔ sized *.bz2 an *.osm.zip file is supposed to contain a single
*.osm to be loaded as such in JOSM.
Rather than explaining what I did I wrote in the frame below a skeleton
of a procedure for the wiki.
Failing other instructions, I acted logically with what you announced as
The OSM file 
 In the mean time it's possible to determine whether a stop is new or
 not. i.e. if a stop with that ref is already present in the
 Openstreetmap data I'm downloading with Overpass.
Basing your comparison on the data will get you into trouble.
How will you do in the future when both OSM and TEC data will contain
the same tags with possible different values because either TEC
corrected an error or OSM corrected an error that remains in TEC?
How will you know that the data has been updated?
It's easy by using the source tags which are made for that and that I
recommend below.

Now if you firmly intend not to use the source tag, PLEASE say it
because I'm in the process of proposing a wiki update to make this
easier with ISO dates and well explained and I would save me the hassle.

 I thought that you had found the line numbers, but I don't see them.


 They are in the route_ref key. Where did you expect to find them?
In the route_ref key that I did not see.

Plus, since beginning of May, I am asking if anyone saw line numbers.
Especially with the SPW viewer that does not work.
The data is supposed to come in shape and corollary files in a zip to be
loaded right into JOSM.
I did that. No line numbers I could see.
I suppose TEC consider that the data must be simple to use (simply by
loading the shapefiles) and not by difficult trickery.
I wrote that I found this:
 I made the following TEC = OSM tag conversion.
 POT_NOM_HA = name
 POT_ID = ref
 POT_ZONE_T = zone
There are two files containing TEC data.
TEC__mm.osm.bz2 containing the converted latest TEC data.
TEC_todo.osm.bz2  containing the data remaining to be moved to OSM.

Start JOSM and FileDownload from OSM the area containing the data you
want to update.
Be careful, especially when loading new OSM data, to always have the
correct layer selected.
FileNew Layer (getting selected)
FileOpen Location TEC_todo.osm.bz2 (loading TEC data to it)
Select TEC layer and choose and select a TEC stop to update, usually a
pair of.
If it does not exist in OSM, EditMerge selection to OSM layer.
If it exists:
  Check if source=survey -mm equals TEC -mm
  yes: you can Copy all Keys/Values from TEC and EditPaste tags them to OSM
  no: check for a Note explaining that a TEC value was incorrect and
CopyPaste only the rest
Be sure that survey -mm and TEC -mm are updated to the new values:
  this is what is going to tell to remove the bus stop from TEC_todo.osm.bz2
Move the bus stop to the correct location, using Bing or other map layer.
Periodically update the OSM data, using TEC buses update and checking
that it updates what you've done.
Loop for other stops.

 Good news ! (Alleluia :-) )

 On geoportail.wallonie.be, the data Poteaux d'arrêts (bus stop) and
 ligne de bus (bus lines) are now under CC BY-SA 4.0 international
 Licence :


 http://geoportail.wallonie.be/geocatalogue?mdUUID=47676af7-aab3-4d2e-9c9c-cd86e7ad7241

 The schedules are also available here :
 http://opendata.awt.be/organization/groupe-tec (in a Belgian format...
 glups... I still haven't opened it yet).

 We are now allowed to import those data's in OSM.

 Please, do not batch import ! I saw in the previous version a lot of
 mistakes, comparing data to Bing! Imagery and also to Walloon's
 orthophotos. We may be more accurate than the original data :-)

 At Champs Libres, we are planning to provide an online comparator from
 TEC data to OSM data, using the old and new public transport schema.
 This will allow to see where are missing bus stops, where they are
 mispelled, etc. We will do it during May.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] TEC Open Data: let's start !

2014-06-17 Thread Jo
It's a lot of data and it's coming from an outside source, so yes it's an
import. No way to get around that by calling it anything different. It's
best to go through the proper channels. That way nobody can say we didn't
at least try to do things the right way.

If we fall flat on our noses, so be it. I had always thought data like this
is (and addresses) is something we want to have in OSM. And visiting each
bus stop (or house) is simply not practical. By the time you did all of
them, you'd have to start over again.

I do agree sometimes imports hurt the community, which is why I'd like to
get the community involved as much as possible.

I also think we're going about this the right way. This is not a data dump.
We are integrating the new data with what's already present in OSM. I often
find myself improving the topology of the roads while adding stops and
shelters and benches and platforms. For Flanders we have now the street
names in a WMS layer, so during validation I'm also adding those for the
roads I touched (adding nodes or splitting).

Unfortunately it's extremely time consuming to do it this way, but it's
still more efficient than visiting 7 bus stops all across the country
and jotting down their details.

A few remarks.

As there were as usual no replies on this list to my remarks about
missing bus line numbers and accent-less uppercased place names, I wrote
to the TEC myself.  They recognized my remarks as valid points and they
said that they will fix these problems, but no sooner than September. 
I'll cc: you.

I wonder if it wouldn't be wiser to let's start ! in September with
that data rather than do it twice.

Whatever I try, I see accent-less uppercased place names in your file.

I thought that you had found the line numbers, but I don't see them.

My file was displaying the lines (without number). Yours not.  Here is
an additional layer to display them.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/ty49nmfdb2vfz4m/TEC_2014_04-Lignes.2.osm.bz2

 All that's missing at the moment is comparison with existing data
 already present in OSM. I'm already doing that for the stops of De
 Lijn, so the process exists. It merely needs to be adapted a bit in
 the scripts I created.

 I'm not adding source on the objects anymore. Instead I add source
 tags on the changeset as a whole.
On one hand, using a source= tag is highly recommended in the bus stops
and lines, if not required.
On the other, you must of course be able to tell data that was added by
copying the elements of your file from OSM.org data that existed before
your publication and that must be updated.
It's not a matter of how *you* make updates and tag change-sets, but of
how *the mappers* will do it.
They'll FileUpload those updates the normal way, without your
change-sets tags, I don't know how to do it.
If you use *source=survey 2014-06  TEC 2014-04* in bus stops as I
recommend, you will both comply with the source requirement and be sure
to find the indication that they contain your file's data and can be
deleted from the remaining-to-be-updated file.
If an existing element does not contain *source=survey 2014-06**  TEC
2014-04* or later, it will be kept in the remaining-to-be-updated file. 
If a mapper further updates the data, he is kindly requested to use a
new date such as *source=survey 2014-07* or *source=survey 2014-06-21* .
 As for the operator, I prefer to use simply TEC.
No problem for me with *operator*, but (Sorry Julien, fourth time) if
you use *network*=tec-wl.be that's not an URL and that is not clickable
here http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/857875464  although we agreed
using an URL (*network*=http://tec-wl.be   which is clickable here
http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1645537259)  then please add
website=http://tec-wl.be.

The OSM file with all the stops in Wallonia can be found here:
 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42418402/TEC.osm.zip

I think you should say that it must not be used for updates right now.

 What we still need to discuss:
The topics mentioned above and
 Is it OK to keep the zones as 4 digits? For me it's better, as it
 makes them unique. It's not what can be read at the stops in the
 streets though (There you'll find the last 2 digits).
I find the 4 digits all-right because if you don't want to see the first
two you just close your left eye but if they weren't there and if you
wanted to see them it wouldn't be possible ;-)
What do the left two digits mean?  Wouldn't that be the place for the
line number? Following be.wa.?

Hi,

 Many thanks Jo!


You're welcome


 A few remarks.


Oh no!


 As there were as usual no replies on this list to my remarks about missing
 bus line numbers and accent-less uppercased place names, I wrote to the TEC
 myself.  They recognized my remarks as valid points and they said that they
 will fix these problems, but no sooner than September.  I'll cc: you.

 I wonder if it wouldn't be wiser to let's start ! in September with that
 data rather than do it twice.


Why would we be doing it twice? What they will provide sometime after
September should have exactly the same contents as what my scripts are
calculating from the data they provide.

Anyway, I don't see why it was needed to bother TEC with this. They provide
the data as is and it's our responsability to convert it to something we
can work with. I'm actually rather surprised you got a positive answer from
them.


 Whatever I try, I see accent-less uppercased place names in your file.


What did you try? 2 files found their way into the zip file. I hope you
were looking at the most recent one. I'm recreating them now. In the mean
time it's possible to determine whether a stop is new or not. i.e. if a
stop with that ref is already present in the Openstreetmap data I'm
downloading with Overpass.




 I thought that you had found the line numbers, but I don't see them.


They are in the route_ref key. Where did you expect to find them?


 My file was displaying the lines (without number). Yours not.  Here is an
 additional layer to display them.


I never saw your file before I started.

 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/ty49nmfdb2vfz4m/TEC_2014_04-Lignes.2.osm.bz2

   All that's missing at the moment is comparison with existing data
 already present in OSM. I'm already doing that for the stops of De Lijn, so
 the process exists. It merely needs to be adapted a bit in the scripts I
 created.

 I'm not adding source on the objects anymore. Instead I add source tags on
 the changeset as a whole.

 On one hand, using a source= tag is highly recommended in the bus stops
 and lines, if not required.


It's certainly not required. The tendency is towards adding source on
changesets nowadays. Look at buildings in France to see what adding source
on objects does.


 On the other, you must of course be able to tell data that was added by
 copying the elements of your file from OSM.org data that existed before
 your publication and that must be updated.
 It's not a matter of how *you* make updates and tag change-sets, but of
 how *the mappers* will do it.
 They'll FileUpload those updates the normal way, without your change-sets
 tags, I don't know how to do it.


People are responsible for adding those changeset tags themselves.


 If you use *source=survey 2014-06  TEC 2014-04* in bus stops as I
 recommend, you will both comply with the source requirement and be sure to
 find the indication that they contain your file's data and can be deleted
 from the remaining-to-be-updated file.
 If an existing element does not contain *source=survey 2014-06**  TEC
 2014-04* or later, it will be kept in the remaining-to-be-updated file.
 If a mapper further updates the data, he is kindly requested to use a new
 date such as *source=survey 2014-07* or *source=survey 2014-06-21* .





   As for the operator, I prefer to use simply TEC.

 No problem for me with *operator*, but (Sorry Julien, fourth time) if you
 use *network*=tec-wl.be that's not an URL and that is not clickable here
 http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/857875464  although we agreed using
 an URL (*network*=http://tec-wl.be   which is clickable here
 http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1645537259)  then please add website=
 http://tec-wl.be.


I don't see the need to add network. Especially if it would be duplicating
what was already in operator. Which entity the stop belongs to, can be
determined in a trivial way from the first letter of the ref of the stop
(for TEC, in the first digit for the stops of De Lijn). That's what network
could be used for, but it's not needed.




 The OSM file with all the stops in Wallonia can be found here:

  https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42418402/TEC.osm.zip


 I think you should say that it must not be used for updates right now.


As always, everybody can use it: 1. at their own risk and on their own
responsability, 2. by double checking everything is correct before pressing
upload. That's what I'm doing at the moment.

For all the stops I'm adding, I'm double checking the position and the
tags. It's not a matter of simply bulk uploading them. If it were that
simple, I could simply do it in one go.



  What we still need to discuss:

 The topics mentioned above and

  Is it OK to keep the zones as 4 digits? For me

You will soon be able to confidently buy TEC tickets and use the OSM

I have just two tag remarks.

network=tec-wl.be is not an URL as you can see by not being able to

the ongoing import.

 Following this discussion here is a proposed clarification to
 Key:source http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:source.
 The goal is to define the word, make date mandatory, use ISO format,
 define per source tag meaning.
 Is there any objection or suggestion for changes?

 *survey* -mm[-dd] (with one blank and an /ISO/ 8601
 http://www.google.be/url?sa=trct=jq=esrc=ssource=webcd=3cad=rjauact=8sqi=2ved=0CDAQFjACurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.iso.org%2Fiso%2Ffr%2Fhome%2Fstandards%2Fiso8601.htmei=X3qZU_CEPNHR4QT34YGwCgusg=AFQjCNHMm5_cA8CzTjEvrWYQc5GZ9K1wLgsig2=m6xdSXuaBGqt6Qlj0tCfTwbvm=bv.68911936,d.bGE
 format date) can be used within the data of any source.KEY=* or
 source=* tag to indicate that, on that date, the source(s) of KEY were
 the most recent and the data was verified to be correct for that KEY.
 In source=*,  survey means the same for all possible (required) keys
 (even those absent by default), but it can be overridden by survey in
 some source.KEY tags. survey helps to avoid making already done
 verifications, especially because a source publication date is not a
 verification date. survey can contain the date of dateless sources
 like visual or knowledge. It can help humanly assisted bulk imports.
 Please update the survey date of what you verify (a substantial time
 later), even if you don't add survey dates yourself.

Hi,

I announced that I had made an OSM file from which it is very easy
to copy with JOSM (EditMerge Selection) TEC bus stops to the OSM
map.  I said that there were problems to discuss, principally

  that the data contains no bus line numbers
  that municipality names are in uppercase and with spelling
errors (no accents)

Nobody replied.
  So that I finally put this file aside so that nobody would start
  tagging incomplete data.
 Julien published https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Belgium/Mapping_resources/TEC
  I discovered my name in it, saying that I made an OSM file. Just
  that.
  As Julien says that he does not find interesting to hear problems
  reports repeated, I continued waiting.

Then Jo got in contact with me and told me that he had made the
  same file as mine, but without lines.
  Then I found that in the above page, my name had been replaced
  with Polyglot without warning.
 Clearly, TEC is no longer my job.
  It is now Jo's job and I was glad to stop waiting.

Jo wrote "I'm planning to convert the village names to normal
  capitalisation".
  Uppercasing is easy, but not correcting the spelling mistakes.
  I can try to do that. Just ask

It happens to those who selected another language than French (in

Hi Andre,

I'm almost done converting the village names to proper capitalisation,
including accents. I also have a system set up to calculate route_ref. It's
slower than I would like, but it works. (Reading the data into postGIS that
is). Most of the work involved is stuff I had already done for the data of
De Lijn. The data from TEC comes in a different format and I'm looking for
a more efficient way to process it. Inserting line by line is not the way
to go.

I couldn't find your file, so I had to start from scratch.

Just a few more days and I'll release it.

Thanks Julien.
I'd gladly add this to my list of JOSM imagery sites but I see no
WMS configuration.
Is there a JOSM configuration?

If I try to look at the Arcgis configuration you mention
http://geodata.tec-wl.be/arcgis/rest/services/Poteaux/MapServer
 http://geodata.tec-wl.be/arcgis/rest/services/Lignes/MapServer

I get a 403 error.
How can it be used?

  Please, do not batch import ! 
  I saw in the previous version a lot of
  mistakes, comparing data to Bing! Imagery and also to Walloon's
  orthophotos. We may be more accurate than the original data :-)
What about importing the data to a TEC.osm file, splitting this file
into pieces to distribute to volunteers that would use JOSM to
overlay them on top of OSM and other maps, rectify them subpiece by
subpieces and move them to the OSM layer to update? I see references
  to OSM import tasking managers.

I'm glad to learn that the Walloon othophotos can be used to check,
understand and put right other maps.
I never fully understood the only phrase of their
  terms that seems to apply to us.
What does "ligne graphique" mean?
Can a SPW map be used to rectify another SPW map? ;-)

Beware of Bing! !!!  It has an offset error at high zoom in many
places responsible for many OSM imprecisions.
The recently mentioned Mapbox seems to have the same images as Bing!
but with a different offset.
I didn't check (yet) if it exhibits the same errors as Bing!
At
  Champs Libres, we are planning to provide an online "comparator"
  from
  TEC data to OSM data, using the old and new public transport
  schema.
  This will allow to see where are missing bus stops, where they are
  mispelled, etc. We will do it during May.

If the SPW keeps not making a WMS server, what about making a Champs
Libres proxy serving WMS?
This would allow doing what you say together with OSM updates while
staying in the same JOSM window.

Hi,

Good news indeed.
I did a quick search on the format. It uses the BLTAC format (Belgium
Local Transport Automatic Connexion).If you open data you will get a
bunch of text files not very easy to understand.

Hopefully, they gave also the documentation of the BLTAC format[1] and I
found a csv version (a bit more human friendly) here[2] with at least
the coordinates of the bus stops.
