[josm-dev] josm 4541
Is it just me, or is version 4541 not working? Several of the buttons on the left menu including the list of all loaded layers do not function (a brief flash of a white window, when clicked). Likewise for properties of selected objects. Thus it is no longer possible to edit. I am aware that there have been changes to the user interface recently which I have not followed in any detail. Perhaps I just do not understand the new system, but for someone who has been using josm for several years, it is not obvious what I should do. Or am I seeing bugs? ael ___ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
Re: [josm-dev] Plugin for Karlsruhe schema
It's a first approach, imagine those cities which do not have any house-numbers yet, we could add them quite fast. Later any memeber can remove the interpolation of any block improving the schema Just to clarify there will start and end points for every block On Tue, Oct 25, 2011 at 4:29 AM, Pieren pier...@gmail.com wrote: On Tue, Oct 25, 2011 at 5:25 AM, Werner Horsch werner.hor...@gmail.com wrote: I was thinking in how to aid the entry of numbering to osm, and it shouldnt be very difficult.

For best accuracy, an address interpolation way would need to be created for every block, then converted to house numbers. ___ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev

Here in my part of the USA, street addresses were renumbered for the convenience of the fire, police, and rescue squads. Cuz, well, everybody wants them to be able to find your house. They were renumbered according to the linear distance down your road. So ... if you know an address at the beginning of the road, and at the end of the road, you know the addresses of all the houses using linear interpolation. If you doubt me, feel free to test this theory on Pleasant Valley Road, Potsdam NY. I've entered addresses by hand AND added addresses via an import of cadastral data. Those line up very well, and I predict that if you try linearly interpolating, you'll get the same results. But don't trust my prediction ... try it for yourself. If I'm wrong, then you can prove it to me! -- --my blog is athttp://blog.russnelson.com Crynwr supports open source software 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315-600-8815 Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | Sheepdog ___ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
