[talk-ph] Ondoy/Kestana flood victims in Metro Manila

2009-10-01 Thread Totor Osm
First of all, I'm happy all of you are ok.

It might be a little off topic here, but I want to share some links to/from a 
typhoon information site I discovered several years ago :

http://www.typhoon2000.ph/

There is another typhoon most probably passing north of Luzon :
http://www.typhoon2000.ph/activetrack.gif

I really hope it will not bring too much rain this weekend :-(


Some sat images of Ondoy rainfall :

Re: [talk-ph] Fwd: [OSM-talk] keepright! goes global

2009-07-20 Thread Totor Osm

I saw some blue arrows indicating 2 roads are close, but not conneected. In 
Cebu this is the case near Car-Car in the south, and also in the north of Cebu 
Island. Maybe this could be the reason for the "island" warning on other 
intersections (Not connected to the world, because of these gaps)?

I'll try to connect them tomorrow.

Great,

but,ehr, could it be that Cebu is just one big floating island ???

Re: [talk-ph] GPS reservation request

2009-07-14 Thread Totor Osm

Hi,

Opencycle maps can be easily added in TangoGPS (if not available out of the 
box):

goto the config tab, add a new map repostory, and use this URL :
http://a.andy.sandbox.cloudmade.com/tiles/cycle/%d/%d/%d.png.

Also define a name, and a location for the tile cache

Cheers,

Totor

Re: [talk-ph] OpenStreetMap Philippines Community Survey

2009-05-29 Thread Totor Osm

Hello again,

Since I'm writing now, I can as well give my opinion about the 
"The formation of a formal legal entity to represent OpenStreetMap in
the Philippines" :

YES, its good to have a legal entity to give OpenStreetMap in the Philippines 
some more visibility, structure and power...

BUT I had a bad experience with a group of friends, astronomy fans, that also 
wanted to organize their nightly meetings. As time went by, the club became 
bigger and bigger, and the members ended up spending more time in 
administrative meetings and fights for power, than in watching the sky...

So, NO, I probably will not join...  

Always remember, Keep it fun!

Re: [talk-ph] welcome new osm-ph list subscribers

2009-05-29 Thread Totor Osm

Hello everybody,
and thanks for the welcome...

For those who don't know me yet, (I guess all, except maybe Maning with who I 
already exchanged some mails) I'm a Dutch guy, living in Cebu city since 
several years now, and enjoying it much here.
I recently discovered openstreetmaps, and found it worth contributing to.

Next week I'll go back to Holland for my yearly holiday, so my mapping in Cebu 
City will pause for a while.

When I'm back, I'd need some clarifications, or guidelines, on how to classify 
the roads here in Cebu. I have difficulties in relating the guidelines about 
the tags to the reality.

Right now, there is primary roads, and residential roads mainly. I don't know 
how to improve this, since some main large roads (like A.S. Fortuna) don't even 
have a dividing line (this means it is 1 lane only ?) but the trafic is driving 
on 4 lanes (2 each side)...

The Cebu North road, really gets narrow at some sections when going south, and 
would not be considered a main road abroad in those sections...

The South (SRP) road is now mapped as a single motorway. It should be 2 one way 
roads... 3 lanes each if I remember well. But can it be a motorway road ? It is 
the closest to a motorway I ever saw here in Cebu, but I'm not sure there is a 
hard shoulder, there are many intersections and traffic lights, often tricycles 
also ride there... I guess a trunk road would be more appropriate.

Any suggestions how to deal with all this ?

Happy mapping!

Totor
