Hello Tasauf and team,

It was bummer for not making it to this year's SotM but was following the
event online. Great team effort and kudos to the team for making this
happen. Good luck to the Sri Lanka team for 2020. So looking forward to it.

Cheers,

[Talk-vi] Mapping missing roads in few cities of Vietnam

[Jinal Foflia]

Hello everyone,

I’m Jinal, Outreach and Community Manager at Grab. Our team is planning to
go through the existing road geometries and add the missing ones if any in
few cities of Vietnam.

We’ll be reviewing and mapping the following features: missing roads, road
classification, and check for intersection configurations and alignment
accuracy.
Find more details here: https://github.com/GRABOSM/Grab-Data/issues/32

Please do reach out to us here or on Github if you have suggestions or
feedback. Happy Mapping :)

Cheers,
Jinal Foflia

[Talk-in] State of the Map Asia 2018

[Jinal Foflia]

*Hello, Everyone! Bengaluru is getting ready to host State of the Map
Asia[0] this year. We’re excited to bring the conference to the garden city
of India during November 17th –18th at the Indian Institute of Management,
Bangalore[1]. We'll have participants from around the world to discuss
challenges, learn, and celebrate many years of mapping together.The Call
for Proposals for the conference is open until June 10th midnight.[2] We
are focusing on the growing OSM communities in the region — both mappers
and users of the data. We invite inclusive and diverse participation to
broaden our understanding of the OSM community, and encourage a dialogue
driven by the unique needs of users in the Asia region. If you have a great
workshop idea, a story about working with OpenStreetMap in your local
community, or a project that you want to share with us, we would love to
hear from you, please apply[2]! The conference operates as a space for
collaboration and strengthening the community. We also understand that it
is expensive to fly around the world to support the community. However, we
believe financial constraints should not be the reason we don’t get to
interact with you. In hopes of helping you out a little more, we offer
scholarships to support participants to attend the conference[3]. The last
date to apply for scholarships is 11th May.If you are interested in helping
us support[4] travel and accommodation for participants from outside the
host city, write to us at stateofthemapasia (at) gmail (dot) com and we
will provide you with all the information needed to support the
conference.For all the announcements around the conference follow us on our

[Talk-in] Interesting projects or organised mapping efforts that could be highlighted

[Jinal Foflia]

Hello everyone,

This State of the Map Asia, I'll be presenting the State of the Map country
talk for India. I'm intending to highlight some interesting projects and
mapping efforts from the community in India. It'll be great if you all
could share something that you think should be highlighted. Looking forward
to hearing back!

Re: [OSM-talk] Subscribing to objects I have edited

[Jinal Foflia]

You could also use https://osmcha.mapbox.com, this tool lets you filter
changesets based on bounding box, particular users, changeset comments and
so on. It also lets you view changes (additions, deletions, and
modifications) in a changeset on the changeset map.

Cheers,

Thank you so much for this information, Minh. Will keep this in mind when
the team starts mapping in Louisville.


Thank you everyone for all the information. To start with our team is going
to be working on improving the building footprints in Jacksonville, Florida
[0] on OpenStreetMap. You can track the progress in our /mapping ticket [1].
Let us know if you have any feedback, please post in this thread or in the
ticket.

[Talk-us] Tracing buildings in US Cities

[Jinal Foflia]

Hi everyone,

This is Jinal Foflia and I work with the Mapbox's Data team [0]. Our
team is planning to work on improving the coverage of building footprints
in the following cities:


   - Jacksonville, Florida
   - Memphis, Tennessee
   - Louisville, Kentucky


Let us know if there are any ongoing/probable imports happening in any of
these cities? If so, please post back on this thread, this will be really
helpful!

Hey everyone,

Since there are plans of having building footprints imported [0] in Fort
Worth region, we have decided to archive the project in the tasking manager
[1][2] to avoid community working on these tasks and digitize data. Thank
you, Andrew, for the heads-up related to the import!

Andrew,

Thank you for pointing out to the latest orthophoto imagery, the team will
be using the same for tracing [0].

> Also, for what its worth, I believe the City of Fort Worth has building
footprints that could be imported, but we just need to get the explicit
permission.

This is great to know, what is the timeline for the import? Are we waiting
for the explicit permission from the community or the officials?

Hi Nate,

Thank you for the heads up, we will keep this in mind while we add turn
restrictions. We are currently focussing on adding the following turn
restrictions [1]. Also we have documented this instance in our guide to map
turn restrictions [2]. It will be great to have your feedback and
suggestions on our workflow.

Hello everyone,

In a collective effort to improve OpenStreetMap, Mapbox's Data team is
working on improving Navigation in top *5 Canadian Cities *[1]. We have
built an easy tool to ease our efforts in mapping turn restrictions.

We would love to have the community to try this tool and share their
thoughts and ideas on on our existing workflow on how to make it better.
Here's a *diary post* [2] with more details. Looking forward to work
together and make OpenStreetMap the best!

Re: [Talk-us] Improving coverage of exit numbers and destinations on motorways

[Jinal Foflia]

Hi Paul,

These are good points, but it does not look like the `junction:ref` tagging
scheme is very common. Till there is widespread usage by the community we
will continue to follow the conventional tagging of the reference numbers
on the motorway_junction node [1].

Curious to know what the others think of the `junction:ref` tag.

Cheers,
Jinal Foflia

[Talk-us] Improving coverage of exit numbers and destinations on motorways

[Jinal Foflia]

There has been a recent push to improve the coverage of exit numbers and
destination signs on the motorways in the US by the data team at Mapbox.
Some context here [1][2][3][4]. The primary sources of data were DoT
documents and Mapillary images. The secondary source was Wikipedia, but as
per the conversation with the local mappers, it is not a good idea to
completely trust wikipedia documents for mapping the exit numbers and
destinations. There are certain highways which do not have Mapillary
coverage and it is difficult to validate/identify the missing exit numbers
and destination. It will be a great help if local mappers can help share
reliable sources and validate the existing data that will help improve the
coverage of this data on the map

We been working on this from the beginning of April and reviewed more than 220
highways in 9 states. The goal would be to authenticate all the existing
data and fill in the gaps using verifiable sources wherever possible.

Here is the Overpass query to get a better sense of the stats:

* Total motorway_junction edited by team in last two weeks: 179 [5]

This is the detailed workflow for *Exit mapping* [6] and *Destination
mapping* [7] that was used for this mapping activity. Would be great to
hear your feedback on how it can be improved for further such tasks, please
drop a comment on the *project tracker* [3] .

I want to thank all of you in the community for giving feedback, calling us
out on the occasional errors, and working with us to improve signpost
mapping conventions. I feel proud to be a member of such a great mapping
community!
Cheers,

Jinal Foflia

Apologies for the typing mistake it is "Brussels attack" and not "Berlin
attack".


   - Our thoughts and sympathy are with the families and friends of the
   victims of the 'Brussels' attack. SotM organizing committee is safe. SotM
   will happen as planned and are monitoring the situation closely. Safety of
   attendees is paramount!
