Re: [Talk-us] Dakota County, MN Data

2017-02-22 Thread Clifford Snow
Joe,
Thanks for letting us know about Dakota County's data. Ideally someone from
the area will step forward to use the data. A lot of us, in the US at
least, believe an import can help build a community. It's is important that
we have a community in place to help maintain the data once it's imported.
I don't know if we have an active OSM community in the area, but I believe
there is a Maptime Twin Cities, MaptimeMSP. I'll pass the information to
them.

Thanks for making us aware,
Clifford

Re: [Talk-us] RRFB Tag

2017-02-22 Thread Harald Kliems
The wiki page seems to suggest that it should be flashing_lights=button
instead of having the separate button_operated tag. But I'm not sure if
that tagging actually makes more sense than the one you suggested.

 Harald.

[Talk-us] RRFB Tag

2017-02-22 Thread Spencer Gardner
Is there a conventional way to tag Rectangular Rapid Flash Beacons
?
These are effectively crosswalks with additional signage and user-activated
flashing yellow lights. The crossing=traffic_signals tag seems more akin to
a HAWK 
signal (similar to European "Pelican") and doesn't really work for RRFBs
since there's no real traffic control.

[Talk-us] Dakota County, MN Data

2017-02-22 Thread joe.sapletal
If anyone is interested, there are some datasets available to update streets, 
county parks and municipal boundaries in Dakota County, MN. (my employer)  This 
is the same data we give to Esri for their basemaps.

I’ve posted links and more information on my blog - 
http://dcgisjoe.blogspot.com/2017/02/calling-all-osmers.html 

Thanks,

Re: [Talk-us] Open Building datasets for San Jose, Fremont and Berkeley

2017-02-22 Thread Nathan Mixter
Hi, I reviewed the data awhile back for San Jose and found that it was high
quality and definitely worth being imported. Yes, by all means please feel
free to jump in on this import! It will a great addition to connect other
imports done in the Bay Area. There are a few buildings that I and others
have traced manually from imagery. I started working my way north tracing
images in southern San Jose with Bing imagery before I realized the city
had the data available. I am fine with having any of the buildings I've
traced deleted in favor of the better quality shapes. I would be happy to
assist in the import however I can, and there are several other mappers in
the area who have helped with imports who would also be able to take over
part of the work load.
All the best, Nathan Mixter

Hi,

Recently we came across three open buildings datasets for San Jose[1],
Berkeley[2] and Fremont[3]. We have evaluated the quality of each of
the datasets and found them to have good coverage and building
extrusions match recent satellite imagery. We have updated the wiki[4]
with the above sources for California.


- San Jose: https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/
1933377/22969874/09901660-f396-11e6-93a9-225dfab1ccc9.png
- Berkeley: https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/

1933377/22917071/97fb3536-f2a8-11e6-885c-26a5f0a6ce14.png

The datasets for San Jose and Berkeley also contain building heights
and that of San Jose contains building parts as well.

Our team would be happy to collaborate if you are open to importing
these datasets to OpenStreetMap.
