[talk-ph] Fwd: pgRouting with Phil data

2010-11-22 Thread maning sambale
Another routing application using pgrouting engine.  A pinoy developer
requested to include osm-ph data in the routing app during the FOSS4G
conf in Tokyo.


=
Anyway, during that conference I was able to convince Daniel Kastl of
GeoRepublic.org to include the Philippine OSM data into their
pgRouting demo application. I don't know if you have used pgRouting
before, but it does work quite well using the OSM for its network
data. One of the big news of FOSS4G Barcelona is that the PostGIS
people have decided to incorporate pgRouting into PostGIS 2.1, so it
will be going pretty much mainstream.

The demo site is here:

http://websi.openvrp.com/

Just look for Philippines on the list of areas and zoom into Metro
Manila. It uses just the Length as the cost, so it will just give the
shortest path and not necessarily the correct path. What is nice about
this application is that you can output the path in KML, GML, and
couple of other formats.

Regards,

Mario.

 Eigenlijk leert volgens mij deze discussie een belangrijk ding, namelijk
 dat er aan duidelijke documentatie nood is.

 Karel Adams is toch al een tijdje met OSM bezig. 'basic dingen' zoals het
 knippen van een way zou dan iets moeten zijn dat 'eenvoudig en snel' te
 vinden is, in welke editor dan ook. Dat hij 'niet weet hoe' is dan wellicht
 eerder de fout van een onvoldoende documentatie, dan van Karel.

 Mijn persoonlijke ervaring met how-to-do-things is, dat als je wat opzoekt
 je in de wiki al te vaak terecht komt bij zaken die onder de categorie het
 geslacht der engelen te klasseren zijn en waarover veel discussie is, maar
 dat je de 'basic uitleg' vaak te moeilijk terugvindt.

 Een beknopte en overzichtelijke how-to met betrekking tot de basic tools
 zou zeker een goede zaak zijn.

 Luc/Speedy


What would you think about a How-do-I newcomers wiki?
I would be at 2 levels:
- Basic OSM
- Per-editor details

Example:

First-steps in OSM
==
blahblah...You have to register on the openstreetmap.org site to be able to
edit the map...blahblah

In Potlach

blahblah

In JOSM

blahblah

In Merkaartor
---
Go to Tools-preferenfces...blahblah... and enter your user/password there

...
Junctions
===
How do I create a bridge?
===
Create 2 nodes...blahblah...and split, then apply a Level=1 tag.

In Potlach

blahblah

In JOSM

blahblah

In Merkaartor
---
Select the way to split and hit ctrl-N...blahblah

Obviously, the problem is always maintenance, so I'd propose a dedicated
team of roles who'd in charge of this:
- a collector, who identifies what newcomers are asking/needing and
creates the headlines
- an OSM specialist who describe the steps to do it in OSM terms
- one editor specialist per editor who would fill in the specific sequence
of actions to be done in their favourite editors

We could discuss this here, then make a proposal to Talk/the OSMF.
Since the last elections, there is a couple of new people really helpful and
community oriented, there...

That's one reason why I think a dual licence under both the proposed new

For me, as a PD advocate, the more licenses you license the stuff under 
the better as it will combine the loopholes of every single one.

If, however, you intend to protect our data by putting it under a 
share-alike data, then any additional license you add weakens that 
protection.

It's curious that two of the strongest defences of 'strong share-alike' come 
from

I’d like to see all mandatory “agreements” to the CTs so far to be

determine what the level of support for the licence+CT change is, and if
and only if we have overall support for the licence+CT change we change
the sign up terms to reflect it.

See the LWG minutes from October 26th
https://docs.google.com/View?id=dd9g3qjp_89cczk73gk:

- Referendum proposal. We are still not going to firmly reject/accept yet but
are doing nothing active to organise it. Our position remains that it does not
cleary help us change the license.

This appears to say that the important thing is to change the licence - which
has already been decided - and what matters is to push that through.  So a
vote is unlikely to be held unless it is sure to produce the outcome the LWG
wants!

I agree with you that the OSMF should remain strictly even-handed in this,
not favouring one side or the other ('we are changing the licence', 'please
follow this link to review and accept the new contributor terms'), and the right
order is to first find out what support there is for the licence+CT proposal
(as well as other proposals such as public domain, which have never had a fair
hearing) and only then make the decision.  I also agree that the OSMF have
confused 'supporting the process' with 'supporting the licence change'.

 BY-SA does allow you to request the removal of attribution from
 derivative works (BY-SA 2.0 Generic 4.a). This might be useful in
 future to preventing OSM becoming associated with any other outbreaks
 of pornocamvertising.

 How does that work? Does is require all contributors to agree on it?,
 or is there another way?

Probably, but CC-By-SA, the current license, is probably way too vague
to help decide who can request the removal.  For example if you wanted
to be pedantic in attributing the authors, users would need to
attribute every single author but instead the practice is to attribute
OSM and contributors collectively.  So it wouldn't make sense for
any subset of contributors to request to not be attributed because
they aren't.  OSMF isn't attributed either, and OSMF is not the
copyright owner under the current license (at least not the owner of a
huge amount of edits) although it is the owner of the trademark, so
maybe there's something they can do.

Re: [OSM-legal-talk] License Use Case

2010-11-22 Thread Xavier Loiseau
Hi Frederik,



Thank you for your previous answers.

I sill have a couple of remarks and questions.



 1. You don't have to release what you haven't got. So if the only thing 
 required for your application to work is the *location* then just store the 
 location and not the address. You can still dump the address to a log file on 
 input, in case you need to follow things up manually later, but if the only 
 thing in your database is the location then that's all you have to release.

I think that having to publish locations (latitudes  longitudes) is equivalent 
to having to publish addresses
since a location can be converted into an address and vice versa.
Therefore, having to publish locations instead of addresses does not protect 
the privacy.



 2. I'm not sure if individual geocoding results really trigger any sort of 
 license reaction as they are so trivial. Maybe the application could be 
 structured in a way that would never even create/contain a substantial 
 extract of OSM.

I would rather have a solution not relying on the interpretation of the word 
substantial as defined in the ODbL license.
But briefly, how would you structure the application ?



 3. Assume your customers have uploaded 10.000 addresses and 10.000 pictures. 
 You could have one database with the columns picture_id and address, 
 containing what the users have uploaded, and another database with the 
 columns address, lat, lon which contains the geocoding results for 
 these 10.000 addresses. Now if you only mix these databases for display (i.e. 
 you do a SELECT from the geocoding table to find all addresses in the 
 vicinity, and JOIN that with the other table to find the photo IDs), then it 
 is my opinion that you'd only have to release the geocoding db and not the 
 photo db, as the photo table is not derived from OSM in any way. The 
 geocoding table would allow users to see which places you have photos for 
 (but you could add another 100.000 records to that table if you don't want 
 people to know for sure). Maybe you wouldn't even store the address in plain 
 text, but just a MD5 hash?

Does the ODbL license allow to add dummy data (for example the 100.000 dummy 
locations) into a derivative database 
in order to mask the useful data (for example the 10.000 useful locations) of 
the derivative database ?



Thank you very much for your help.

Re: [OSM-legal-talk] [DRAFT] Contributor Terms 1.2

2010-11-22 Thread SimonPoole

Sorry folks, but you are really kidding yourselves if you think (1) a and b
are at all workable. 

On the one hand you are requiring Joe Wellintendening Mapper to determine
if two licenses (typically in a foreign tongue and at least one of them
rather complex) are legally compatible. This hasn't worked in the past and
will not work in the future. On the other hand you are giving I just want
to be on top of the list and will import anything I can a really easy cop
out. This is not better than the waffling around prior to the CT 1.0. 

While I would prefer the details of imports and derived data to be moved out
of the CTs, I could live with: 

- permission granted to the Contributor to import data from 3rd party
sources that have been registered with the OSMF and have licenses that have
been found to be compatible with the CTs and ODBL/DCL. The contributor gains
no rights or title to the data entered by the import. 

- permission granted to the Contributor to derive data from 3rd party
sources that have been registered with the OSMF and have licenses have been
found to be compatible with the CTs and ODBL/DCL. Any rights the Contributor
may have gained by deriving the data are licensed to the OSMF as in (2).

- all data entered under above terms will have proscribed source tagging
(actually I would prefer separate user accounts).

OK, in that case this needs to be clarified too, since we have all

ourselves on this list, and if we have done so others might too.

So, in that case, if you must give sufficient permission to allow OSMF

(pretty much) any licence it wants in future, it would not be possible 
to add
third-party data released under anything less than fully-permissive 
terms, even

if it happened to be compatible with the licence OSM uses at present.


No. That's not the case and on this point the draft licence *is* clear
enough in my view. Its important to read the existing draft as is,
rather than recalling what earlier drafts said.

The existing draft aims to allow:

- the addition of data that the contributor themselves can licence -
in this case the contributor grants a perpetual licence to OSMF to
relicense it under whatever current licence is being used (subject to
conditions that are being discussed - but free and open of some
kind), you need the CT to license the data somehow, or OSMF won't know
what they can do with it

- addition of data licensed under some other licence which looks like
(to the contributor) it is compatible with the OSMF's current licence
- there is no need for the contributor to be sure about this, but OSMF
makes it clear that this is what it would like


I think I have the same question about this as David Groom:


Yes , you do.


The OSMF tells me that I'm allowed to contribute data owned by
somebody else which is compatible with the license currently used, but
I acknowledge that they may change the license later.  But, is it
legal for me to contribute that data, knowing that the OSMF may
eventually distribute it under an incompatible license? (if they don't
decide to immediately delete it, which they avoid to pledge to do in
the CT)

So OSMF tells me I can do something -- they don't mind, but am I not
exposing myself to legal consequences if I do that?

To better show this with some worst case scenario, imagine I upload
data I'm given by a 3rd party under a license compatible with The
Current License, the OSMF then at some point changes its license to
one that is incompatible and for a short period keeps redistributing
my data under it.  During this time someone downloads it and is
granted that new license and excercises the rights he is granted.  The
3rd party author of the data decides that he has suffered some sort of
damage and seeks the person responsible for the damage to repair it.
Me as a contributor will be the responsible party.

Let's say this does not happen, but by agreeing to the CT and
contributing that data, I'm allowing such a scenario to happen with a
very small probability.  Is this by itself not a violation of the
third party's license?



Sadly, my question from six days ago, and your repeat of the question 
yesterday, remains unanswered.

Re: [OSM-talk] So how *do* you get GPS waypoints into OSM?

2010-11-22 Thread Donald Campbell II
I'd just add that depending on your GPS the waypoints may not be in the GPX
files.  For example with Garmin GPS devices the Waypoints are stored in the
internal memory and must be extracted using GPSBabel or similar.  The GPX
files copied off when in USB Disk mode will only be tracks.  So if you're
not seeing the waypoints it may be that you haven't gotten them off the
device yet.  In that case, I hope you haven't already deleted them from the
device.

P.S. This is good info for the newbies list as well.

Have a look at:

That search should get you to a GPX file that contains mostly 
waypoints.  There is one track point in it, so that the upload doesn't barf.

Ok, well, I've just had a go at this, and it didn't work for me. The

 The reason for not accepting GPX with just waypoints is obviously that

 effective it is in preventing this.

Was this a real problem? Seems like a case of cutting off your nose to
spite your face. A pretty common use case (get waypoints. upload
waypoint file.) is being deliberately unsupported to prevent one of
many possible forms of vandalism/copyright infringement. Maybe if
there was some kind of trusted flag, who knows.

Anyway, that's a real pity.

Wrong. Apart from anything else waypoints in GPX files do have
timestamps, or at least the ones my GPS produces do.

The reason can be found here:


http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/FAQ#Why_didn.27t_my_GPX_file_upload_properly.3F

Which will tell you this:

  The reason for this is that if you reset many GPS units or download
   map data to them, then you often get copyrighted data put in the
   GPX. The most famous example is that if you reset a Garmin GPS unit
   then it will put the locations of the Garmin offices around the
   world as waypoints on the unit.

I happen to think that's a pretty bonkers reason, but it is the reason
it wasn't done as far I understand it.

Thanks to RichardF's help on irc I can confirm that I've managed to
display one of the waypoint files from my GT31 as a background
vector layer in Potlatch 2. 

I uploaded the .gpx file to my own website and added crossdomain.xml
as per wiki instructions (and RichardF's reminder). I then renamed
the .gpx as .xml as my web host was blocking the file as an unknown
file extension and it was easier to rename than define .gpx (though
I did try).

If you want to test then use this link for an instance of Potlatch

and select 
http://www.loach.me.uk/test.xml 
as the background layer file (GPX format). It contains only one

My GPS unit produces separate POI / waypoint files in addition to 
trackpoint files. Combining the two produces a file that can be 
visualised and traced in Potlatch:


Waypoint files may not be timestamped, so using a text editor, add 
timestamps to each waypoint in the format

[OSM-talk] Localisation and better search in Taginfo

2010-11-22 Thread Jochen Topf
I just put the new version of Taginfo (http://taginfo.openstreetmap.de/)
online.

Taginfo now supports multiple languages. Currently only English and German,
but other languages can be added easily. Not all texts are translated yet.
By default Taginfo uses the language selected in your browser. Using the
drop-down-box on the top right you can override this. The language choice
will then be stored in a cookie.

If you want to help translating: The translations are in the git repository
at https://github.com/joto/taginfo/tree/master/web/i18n/ . The format should
be obvious from the existing files. In the medium term this should probably
be done through translatewiki or so, maybe somebody wants to take this on.

In addition I have redone the whole search. Keys and values are now searched
using a prefix search, so max will find maxspeed but not betamax. Parts
of a key or value separated by colons, whitespace, or similar are searched
separately. If you search for something like =residential (without the
quotes but with the equals sign) all values with residential in them are
found regardless of the key. Something like highway=residential also works.

The search has an autocompletion function which finds frequently appearing
tags.

The Taginfo pages contain an OpenSearch description, you can easily add the
Taginfo search to your browser. In Firefox for instance you can click on the
icon to the left of the search field and choose Add Taginfo.

The search isn't perfect. There are many difficulties, for instance it should
be fast and not need too many server resources. Thats why there is no
substring search. And the search should be as intuitive and easy to use as
possible. Making the equals sign magic, interpreting it in a special way
is an experiment. It makes some searches very easy, but sometimes it doesn't
do what you want. We'll see how that works out in practice.

If you are interested in technical details: Taginfo uses a fullext index
created by the FTS3 module included in Sqlite. For the autocompletion a
special table containing common keys and key/value combinations is used.
Its (re-)created on every data import.

Have fun experimenting!

 a 'public domain' proponent accept attribution-only as good enough?

 My view is that both the BY and SA elements of the current license are good
for the project.

The attribution element is good because it ensures that the contributors get
some credit.  It's the only thing they get out of it and since the whole
success of OSM depends on the kindness of contributors I think it's the
least that we can do for them.

The share-alike element is also a force for good because it enables
downstream contributions to be added back into OSM.  It ensures that
downstream users play fair with the content and prevents many inequitable
uses.

I see that OSM has thrived with the current license.  I see that
contributors and consumers understand what is expected and on the whole
comply with the spirit of the license.  Major transgressions are usually
corrected quickly and apologies made.

So that's what's good about the current license.  Agreed, there are a few
use cases where it would be nice if the license worked better (I think
Richard, in particular, suffers from one of these) but no license is ever
going to be a perfect fit.  We've seen that all too clearly from the attempt
to craft ODbL+CT specifically to our needs.

As for what's wrong with ODbL, there are many problems.  ODbL is a complex
license that is hard for the layman to understand and hard for people to
comply with.  It relies on different types of law (copyright, database right
and contract law), all of which are complex fields with very different
characteristics and nuances.  And these very greatly between jurisdictions.
There are novel elements in ODbL (in particular the belief that the database
right extends to reverse engineered content in produced works) that will
only be watertight once they have been tested in the courts.

The relationship between ODbL and DbCL is not very clear and I'm not
convinced that lawyers really understand the distinction between a database
and it's content.  I'm certain that it isn't understood by most ordinary
people.  The implications of DbCL are murky at best.

The belief that the data is the resource that needs to be protected and that
it is not currently protected by copyright law is a misunderstanding of how
existing copyright law applies to cartography.  Copyright can exist in a
work in *whatever* form it takes and a digital representation is just one of
those forms.  Cartography is fundamentally different from the data in
telephone directories and copyright in maps is a well understood and proven
principle.

Moving on to the Contributor Terms.  Well, they are just a big mistake.
OSM's content is enormously valuable.  Vesting the control of it to an
organisation which has such a poor record of good governance is likely to
make it a very attractive and easy target for some unscrupulous body.  I
fear the outcome of that.

As for the change process itself.  It is using very dubious methods to
achieve consensus and that will taint the project long after the license
change is completed.  The process itself is uncontrolled with no mentor and
no kill switch.  Everyone involved in the LWG is I believe acting in good
faith, I believe they are all doing their best to get a satisfactory
outcome, unfortunately there is nobody and nothing in the process that is
able to call time and bring it to a halt.  So it will keep trundling along
for another year or two until there really isn't anyone left to care.

In summary, my biggest concern is that ODbL will kill the project.  The
change process itself is causing chronic damage and continues to weaken
everyone's resolve and believe.

OSM is a wonderful thing.  It has succeeded fantastically and achieved what
many thought was impossible.  The current license may not be perfect but it
works damn well and we should be very careful about trying to fix something
that isn't very much broken.

80n

PS if I had to choose, with a gun to my head, between ODbL and PD for OSM
then I would opt for PD.  I just don't think ODbL is workable, at least PD
would work even if I don't agree with it.



 You're right, though, that there are others within the project

One of the benefits massively touted by some Australian project

with his MassGIS import) is that there's more data we can import if we 
use a license that those who own the data agree with.

[OSM-talk-nl] Handleiding Hoe maak je je eigen tileserver? in het Nederlands - hulp gevraagd!

2010-11-22 Thread Martijn van Exel
Beste allemaal,

Ik ben bezig met een NL handleiding voor het maken van een eigen tileserver
die zichzelf up-to-date houdt.
Doelgroep is mensen met minimaal een klein beetje ervaring op de
linux-command line , maar niet noodzakelijk met OSM-specifieke tools.
Ik put uit een beetje eigen kennis en ervaring, en een beetje uit bestaande
handleidingen en instructies die her en der te vinden zijn (in het Engels).
Hier is het werkdocument waarin iedereen kan editten:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XYqiwCz0C706lZmta8Bv759xM4tQ5ikPLf7gli2ekWo/edit?hl=enauthkey=CJz26_gN#

Ik heb de volgende vragen:
* De laatste stap, het opzetten van de webserver met openlayers en het
renderen van de tiles, heb ik nog niet beschreven en ook nog nooit gedaan ;)
In elk geval niet met een steeds updatende database. Wie heeft zin om dat
aan te vullen?
* Wie kan eens door het document heenlopen en kijken of het allemaal een
beetje klopt?

Lijkt mij een mooi ding om te hebben op de website. Ik denk dat er wel
belangstelling voor zal zijn.

[OSM-talk-nl] Mapperskaart

2010-11-22 Thread Frank Heinen
Dit is een nieuwe treath op basis van de reactie van Martijn van Exel
in de Treat MappingParties 2011 op 21-11-2010 om 20:35.

Hey Martijn,

Ik had net voor het weekend een brainstorm op papier gezet voor een
mapperskaart.
Waarbij de mapper zijn gegevenskwijt kan en dit als online tool kan
gebruiken. Daar is dit ook een leuk idee voor.
Ik had iets van een Shoutbox/forum idee in het hoofd waar je ook net
als OSB punten kunt DONE verklaren. Het zou zelfs mooi zijn om deze
ook OSB issues er in te zien en deze ook goed op een iPad etc kunt
draaien. Zo kun je mobiel notities maken, online noteren en verwerken,
bespreken en overzicht houden.
Verder moet alle data er op gerendered worden (zoom 18/19) om zo alles
te kunnen zien. Mooi hoeft het niet te zijn maar effectief des te
meer.

Ik werkt het plan later uit van het jaar. Ik hoop nog deze maand maar
tijd is schaars.
Het plan zal ik ook op GoogleDocs dumpen zodat we, mocht men dit een
goed idee vinden, dit kunnen uit kristaliseren.

Groet,

Frank Heinen

Kunnen we dat proces eens inter-actief doen met een groepje belangstellenden ?

Eventueel kan dat bij mij in Rotterdam (NW)

Dan kunnen we tevens deze handleiding al doende checken.

Ik heb nog wel een quad serverke liggen met een 1TB schijf en 8GB memory.

Mijn internet is alleen een beetje traag  (1MUP/8M down) 

 

We moeten alleen een kleinere kaart inlezen vanwege de uren…

Re: [talk-au] license change map

2010-11-22 Thread Ben Kelley
I think I'm in a similar situation. Some of my work is derived (e.g. Nearmap). 
Therefore I can't agree to the CT as they stand.

OK worst case: Suppose that (and similar) data got deleted. Suppose there are 
enough people prepared to trust OSM afterwards to re-map the parts that can be 
remapped.

What happens in the 2-3 years it takes to get back the surveyable data? 
People who use OSM will need something else in the meantime. That's a long time.

I hope something can be worked out with the derived data. I don't want my hard 
work to have been wasted.

 It is hard to believe that those red cities and towns are created entirely

Take me as an example.  I don't care what licence we use - as far as
I'm concerned all my work can be PD.  If people want to take things
I've done, modify them and don't give them back, I don't care.  A lot
of people seem to, but as long as my stuff is still available, I don't
see the problem. I already do similar things with Project Gutenberg -
books that I've worked on there and are available for free are sold to
idiots for money. The book is still available for free, that's the
important bit.

But I cannot agree to the new CT's in the format they are now. Any
personal work I've done, not a problem.  But I've used sources that
were compatible with CC_BY-SA, and are compatible afaik with ODBL.
But the CT's say that anything I give them now can later be changed to
any other licence, which they may not be compatible with, and I can't
say at that point say wait - this needs to come out.  As I read it,
that means that nobody can, under the CT's, use any source that is not
PD, because that's all that's going to be safe no matter what happens
in the future.

I haven't done anything as much as Liz, but my fingerprints are all
over SE QLD, as well as other parts of Australia, the Pacific and
Africa.  All of that is going to have to stay red or yellow unless
something changes, including all the stuff I did by GPS survey.
There's no way I've got the ability to sort it all out at this stage.

 Thats fine for data that is sourced from NearMap.  What about other data
 sources, such as imports and the like?  Having said that, if the CTs are
 accepted by one group, Im sure theyll be accepted by most, as it seems
 that everyone has the same problems with it.

I'm using Nearmap as a surrogate for a class of sources of data that
is open-source but not owned by those who would be uploading it. We're
lucky that NearMap articulated the problem early enough to do
something about it.

I'm assuming the LWG haven't even thought about a specific Nearmap exemption.

 This is fine for your own individual GPS traces and your own work, but
 what about derived work?  Should everyone elses data be relicenced to
 ODbL?  What about if another project decided to use work youd done, and
 then relicenced it under their own licence?  Should they have no
 sympathy for the work you did and respect your rights?  Why are data
 sources not entitled to be treated the way youd like yours to be
 treated?  Why should someone spend resources to collect data, then
 release it freely, only to have it relicenced under terms they may not
 even know about, letalone agree with?

Your five consecutive questions here all seem predicated on there
being no distinction between an active current contributor who is in a
position to assess the licence change and agree to it, and some former
contributor or third party data source. No, you can't re-license
someone's data without their permission, that's clear. But I also
haven't yet seen any reasons, other than sheer bloody mindedness, why
a person who was happy to contribute under a CC-BY-SA licence would be
unhappy to do so under ODbL, assuming they were able to do so.

 Would you write OSM a contract, have it signed and witnessed, but
 leaving a big blank spot for OSM to fill in with whatever they may see
 fit to put there in the future (but dont worry, they wont change the
 contract to their favour against yours, because theyre an 'open' group..
 now part owned by a private business).. THAT is the 'philosophical
 problem' I think Liz and a lot of us others have with the current
 proposal.  Although Im happy to be corrected by Liz if this isnt the
 case.

You know, we can do this without the inflammatory language. So you're
happy with ODbL, but not happy with the some future free licence
voted on by our members clause? Agreed - it's problematic. I get the
impression some people are unhappy with the change to ODbL *per se*
though. If not, I've just misunderstood again.

So, I guess that leaves a number of positions people can take:

1) Happy with ODbL, happy with future licence change clause,
unencumbered by other licences (eg Nearmap), happy to sign up.
2) Happy with ODbL, happy with future licence change clause, but can't
sign up due to other licences in effect
3) Happy with ODbL, unhappy with future licence change clause, (and
could either be encumbered or unencumbered), so won't sign up
4) Unhappy with ODbL.

So I guess I'm 2, you're 3, and I thought anyone who was talking about
an OSM CC-BY-SA fork was 4.

Depends what you mean by use OSM. The deleted data would never go
away, everyone would presumably still have access to existing maps,
though it's anyone's guess whether sites like
http://www.osmaustralia.org/ would support two versions of the maps -
the live and pre-deletion versions.

Dear Alex,

Looking at the Canberra region on google maps, I see

©2010 Google - Map data ©2010 Europa Technologies, GBRMPA, Google,
Whereis(R) Sensis Pty. Ltd.

Was your copyright quote above literal?  I don't see MapQuest
attributed near Canberra and I've checked at a few zoom levels.  As
you can see below, your quote has lead to further discussion.

 Hang on a second...  you mean you goto google maps, and some of the data
 displayed is coming from MapQuest (which as I now understand, through
 their hiring of SteveC, have rights to a big chunk of free data?)?

Dear David,

In my opinion there is a factual error and an incorrect conclusion in
your paragraph above.

I was at WhereCamp5280 two days ago and spoke to SteveC in person.  He
told me that he is not employed by MapQuest and I believe him.

Your conclusion, that MapQuest be entitled to additional rights to OSM
data because of an employee on the OSMF Board is also incorrect in my
judgment. Board members are granted no additional rights to OSM data
by membership on the board.

If I were to suggest hypothetically that SteveC might take additional
rights after hypothetically joining MapQuest.  He hasn't joined
MapQuest.  I would also have to look at the history of SteveC in that
respect.  The historical record suggests that there was no over
reaching by SteveC or CloudMade while he was there.

When SteveC was at CloudMade, CloudMade had no additional rights to
the OSM data beyond those of any OSM consumer.  CloudMade did offer
services to the OSM community like servers for the cyclemap layer,
development and deployment of the noname layer, conference call lines
for OSMF calls.  I'm not aware of any case where CloudMade failed to
attribute OSM and the license correctly. CloudMade also sponsored
State of the Map, code sprints, mapping parties and other OSM events.
At the same time, several CloudMade employees and executives, as
individuals, have been OSM contributors on a large scale, from survey
and tagging to authoring and publishing code to public speaking to
advocate OSM, CloudMade had some folks who made tremendous, positive
contributions to OpenStreetMap before, during and now after their
involvement with CloudMade.

CloudMade, the company, have been model citizens and an example to
other OSM data consumers in my opinion.  Some of the people at
CloudMade have been wonderful examples of involvement and contribution
to the OpenStreetMap project and community.

The problem occurs because people have one account, with which they do
edits.  Some of those edits are likely to come from different sources.
A very good reason why someone wouldnt wish to accept the new terms,
would be that they could have contributed data from different sources.

So, we both agree that its a problem that will cause people to not wish

everyone agrees that is the case, the problem is that the powers-that-be

Hardly the way to run an open community project.

The intent is to allow those with concerns about some of their data to

Dear David,




I realise the question was not addressed to me, but as Richard is asking for 
replies here's my views:



Would the ability to differentially mark changesets as for promotion
to ODbL and not for promotion (with a helpful detail) address this
concern?



Not for me it wouldn't, as its not a question of compatability with ODbL, 
but compatability with the proposed CT's whis is the main issue for me.



The intent is to allow those with concerns about some of their data to
mark it, and accept the terms for the data they are confident in.

One imagined implementation would provide a checkbox and textfield for
each changeset.  The user then checks and adds comments as required.


Notwithstanding the above, I guess at some stage I may have the opportunity 
to revisit all of the 7,700 changesets attributed to me, have a look to see 
if each one is compatible with the CT's and ODbL , and then mark it as such. 
Just don't expect all of the changesets to be marked that quickly.


However it does at least provide a possible solution.  Leaving aside the 
technical issues of what happens to areas where I haven't yet got round to 
marking a changeset which affects that area, and in the meantime someone 
comes along and edits that areas data, and then I subsequently mark my 
origonal changeset affecting that area as OK.


David

 Hardly the way to run an open community project.

I realise the phrase assume good faith is becoming increasingly over-used
in these discussions, but if the above were true, then the Contributor Terms
would still be in 1.0. Instead there's now a 1.2 draft, plus a whole bunch
of smaller incremental revisions along the way, as suggested by mappers.
(One example: I suggested a change last week to cement compatibility with
attribution-required sources, such as Ordnance Survey OpenData and those
offered under CC-BY; LWG listened, agreed to incorporate the change, and
it's now in the 1.2 draft.)

One other phrase which sadly doesn't get as much traction as it used to is
patches welcome. There are no powers that be in OSM; there is no them
and us. It's a collaborative project. It's all us. If you want something
changed, help to change it. Because when you engage with the guys who are
doing stuff, make suggestions, talk to them in a friendly manner, the result
is better for everyone. That applies as much to licence discussions as it
does to OSM software or website development. But when you throw assumptions
and resentment around and assume the worst, yes, the worst usually happens.

Dear David Groom,

Glad to have your support on this.  While I did address David Murn
directly in response to his concern, the question is indeed open to
all.

Those thousands of changesets would put you at the left hand side of
the changesets/user graph, of course, Mr. Highly Productive. :-) When
we looked at this, the vast majority of users have dozens or hundreds
of changesets.  I forget the total, but something on the order of
99.5% of users have fewer than two hundred changesets.

I'm not willing to ignore David Groom's situation with thousands of
changesets to consider and approve, but neither do I have a ready made
solution.  What would help you get through such a list effectively?
Perhaps a tool that lists changeset comments in one window and shows
their location on a map in another?

Re: [talk-au] license change map

2010-11-22 Thread Ben Kelley
Hi.

I'm not sure this would work in practice. As others have said, it would be
very difficult (effectively impossible) to know which of the many edits I
have made in the last 3 years relied on data where the author doesn't now
agree to the contributor terms. It would be similarly difficult for future
changes.

If we get an agreeable licence for the main sources of non-survey data
(I'm including at least Nearmap and the Bureau of Statistics data in that -
what about Yahoo?) then this becomes a little more manageable.

When so much data is derived this starts to get a lot more difficult. While
mapping the streets of Tamworth (NSW) was pretty much totally survey work,
there are still helpful things like Bureau of Statistics data marking creeks
and rivers. (e.g. Peel river) Is my data totally not derived in this case?

For walks I surveyed in Scotland, I did also look at the OS map for that
area, so arguably that data is also partly derived. Could this change be
kept, or would it need to be deleted?

 - Ben Kelley.

 Dear Ben,

 On License Working Group calls recently, we've discussed a method for
 contributors to mark their changesets.  If implemented, you could
 accept the CTs, mark those of your changesets that should not be
 promoted to ODbL, and add a tag to them such as AU gov. CC-By-SA or
 something else that indicates the nature of the problem with the data.
  We've looked at this possibility with a user case like yours in mind.
  Is this a change that you would support?

 The extra step of tagging the data to say why it should not be
 promoted helps during the license change process.  Should, for
 example, the UK OpenGov license be applied to the Ordnance Survey
 Streetview data and the OGL be declared acceptable, that data would
 not have to be removed during changeover.  Also, large groups of
 changesets with similar issues, can be given additional attention for
 negotiation with the publisher.

They don't have to.

ODbL 4.6b: You must also offer to recipients... A file containing all of
the alterations made to the Database or the method of making the alterations
to the Database (such as an algorithm), including any additional Contents,
that make up all the differences between the Database and the Derivative

That could be as simple as the command line you used to invoke mkgmap,

Easiest first. Yahoo aerial imagery is not a problem, data you trace
is your own new work and can be licensed as you wish.
Mike (of LWG) is working though the AU listed imports on/via
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalogue , of the imports
listed 9 are CC-BY and on further ongoing discussion it seems the
attribution may only need to be maintained on the metadata. Only 1
item is CC-BY-SA which is NearMap who have rights over the
(contributed) traced data, LWG intend to have further discussion when
the revisions to the Contributor Terms have settled down. The BP
petrol station data (via MapData Sciences) seems to be licensed only
for private use; making it questional if it should have been imported
in the first place; follow-up discussion with them is needed.

 When so much data is derived this starts to get a lot more difficult. While
 mapping the streets of Tamworth (NSW) was pretty much totally survey work,
 there are still helpful things like Bureau of Statistics data marking creeks

Using an OS map (tomtom GPS/satnav etc) to get you around is
considered to be fine as long as you are sourcing your own data from
being on the ground.

Location is unlikely to be of much help.

Having looked through some of my changesets, and tried to decide is this 
one which would be acceptable under the CT's ?, I guess what I'm looking at 
is any easy way to see what changed, and most importantly information 
regarding the source tags of data affected by that changeset.


In particular, did I add or change a source tag, - which would indicate what 
the source was that I was using for that particular changeset.


Ultimately however it will have to be accepted that there will be some 
instances where it is impossible to determine if a changeset is acceptable 
or not.

I have not been rude to anyone on a public list

OSM list
and to prove my point that this happens, I made a similar suggestion to
yourself, that is, to shut up because I am in disagreement.
I ask questions which are still valid, and they are not answered, but
ignored.

I'm still mapping, because I'm filling the database with more hundreds
of km of CC-by-SA data, just having taken the scenic way home from the
feedlot this morning to 'get' more roads.

and so I am an active participant in this project, as I have been for 3

Was man darf und was man tun sollte sind nicht das gleiche :-)

Muss denn wirklich der Admin den Server immer weiter begrenzen, weil 
sich einige Leute nicht benehmen können und eine unnötige Last erzeugen?


Ich spiele persönlich auch mit Skripts rum, aber ich weiß da recht genau 
was ich tue und hab auch ein Auge drauf während diese laufen. Wenn du 
dir selber ein Skript schreibst, das alle paar Tage dies und das 
runterlädt wird da auch niemand ein Problem mit haben.


Wenn die Admins die Server aber soweit dicht machen müssen das solche 
Experimente garnicht mehr gehen, hat doch keiner was davon.



Wenn so ein Skript oder Programm veröffentlicht werden soll, sollte 
daher dann schon eine gewisse Sorgfalt dahinter stehen. Dazu gehört für 
mich halt auch, sich zu überlegen was die Anfragen auf dem Server an 
Last erzeugen.

P.S: Es macht auch keinen Spaß, wenn die XAPI mal wieder stundenlang

Hallo Frederik,

Danke für die konstruktive Kritik. Das alles ist mir sehr wohl bewusst und ich 
stimme dir in den aufgeführten Punkten zu. Ich habe das Skript deshalb auch nur 
hier auf der Liste publik gemacht. Mit dem breiterem Publikum in meinem UP 
hatte ich auch nicht Hinz und Kunz gemeint sondern aktive und erfahrene OSM-Mapper.


Das Skript entstand, als ich daran gearbeitet habe, die vorhandenen Relationen 
zum Radwandernetz des örtlichen Landkreises (Alb-Donau-Kreis) zu überprüfen und 
ggf. zu ergänzen. Das ganze war zunächst mehr eine Spielerei, um meine Perl- und 
OSM-Kenntnisse aufzupolieren. Zum Testen habe ich das Skripts auch mal über 
Relationen außerhalb meines Mapping-Bereichs laufen lassen und dabei 
festgestellt, dass sich die Radwegrelationen teilweise in einem, vorsichtig 
ausgedrückt, sub-optimalen Zustand befanden. Es gibt fast vollständig erfasste 
Radwege mit vielen kleinen Lücken, andere, bei denen nur wenige weit auseinander 
liegende Teilstücke erfasst sind, Wege mit gedoppelten Teilstrecken (Straße + 
paralleler Radweg), rekursiv geschachtelte Relationen,... Für lokale Mapper, die 
an diesem Zustand etwas ändern möchten und die sich mit Relationen auskennen, 
ist mein Skript sicher ein nützliches Hilfsmittel.


Ich werde deine Anregungen aufnehmen und den Batch-Modus beim Laden der Daten 
über die API herausnehmen. Dann erübrigt sich auch die Schleife bei 
ausbleibender Antwort des Servers. Die /way/.../full-Zugriffe werde ich drin 
lassen, da Einzelzugriffe den Server erheblich mehr belasten würden.


Was ich auch für sinnvoll halte, wäre eine (Wiki-)Seite, auf der in regelmäßigen 
Abständen die Outputs meines Skripts für die Radwanderwege einer Region 
veröffentlicht werden. Die Seite zu erstellen wäre für mich kein Problem. Eine 
kontinuierlich Pflege könnte ich allerdings nicht garantieren.


Grüße
Rainer

Für solche Projekt gibt es den dev-Server. Dort kann man regelmäßig auf den
OSM-Daten irgendwelche Auswertungen fahren, Karten berechnen usw. und die
dann der Allgemeinheit zur Verfügung stellen.

Hast Du bewusst kein /relation/.../full genommen, oder kanntest Du das

Meistens eigentlich ohne besonderen Grund, die Markierung dient nur der
Orientierung. Der Weg trägt keinen Namen, Nummer oder ähnliches und gehört
auch zu keinem speziellen Wegenetz o.ä.

Wie gesagt, ich finde die Relationen gut für Wander_routen_, für
Wegmarkierung sind sie aber IMHO übertrieben, das würde ich als tag am path
für praktischer halten. Dazu gab's anscheinend sogar mal ein proposal, ist
aber abandoned (
