[talk-ph] All non-private GPX traces in the Philippines

2013-04-22 Thread Eugene Alvin Villar
Hi guys,

Last year, (mostly) all the GPX points that have been uploaded to OSM has
been released as a bulk file (7GB compressed, 55GB uncompressed text):
http://blog.osmfoundation.org/2012/04/01/bulk-gps-point-data/

Recently, the non-private GPX traces/tracks themselves and not just the
points have been released as a bulk file too (260GB uncompressed XML):
http://blog.osmfoundation.org/2013/04/12/bulk-gpx-track-data/

Fortunately, somebody processed this humongous file and created extracts of
the data for predefined regions. Here's the link to the Asia download page
and you can download the data for the Philippines (119MB compressed)!
http://zverik.osm.rambler.ru/gps/files/extracts/asia/index.html

Hope to see some nice uses of this data. :-)

Maybe somebody can create something like Steve Coast's GPS Art Poster idea:

Nice!  Here's a wordcloud of what is in the metadata.xml

Obligatory warning on using word clouds:
