[Talk-in] Fwd: FW: Invitation to Geo4SDGs seminar at GeoSmart India 2019

[Naveen Francis]

Invitation to join GeoSmart India 2019



*From: *Megha Datta 
*Date: *Thursday, 5 September 2019 at 5:48 PM
*To: *"talk-in@openstreetmap.org" 
*Subject: *Invitation to Geo4SDGs seminar at GeoSmart India 2019



Dear OpenStreetMappers,



Greetings from Geospatial Media and Communications
!



It is my pleasure to introduce my organization to you, which is a global
think tank on geospatial technologies. We work with a vision to make a
difference to world economy and society through geospatial knowledge by
generating analytical content, developing policy and strategy papers,
publishing a periodic magazine and running a vibrant media platform,
organizing thematic thought leadership conferences etc.



Our seminar called *Geo4SDGs, *serves as a platform for the development,
governance and geospatial communities to share experiences on using
geospatial information for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs). The seminar has gained support from *UN Women*, *Foundation for
Ecological Security* and the *Gates Foundation*. The seminar will cover
technologies like remote sensing (satellite imageries), drones, surveying
and mapping, GIS, AI, cloud computing, Big Data and IoT for social impact
in sectors including health, food security, education, water and
sanitation, clean energy, land rights, environment and others. Please find
attached the concept note on the seminar with this email for more details.



Geo4SDGs is a part of* GeoSmart India  *and
is scheduled for *3-5 December 2019* at *Hyderabad International Convention
Centre*. GeoSmart India is South Asia's largest conference and exhibition
for Geospatial technologies, attracting participation of *over 2000
delegates* from the entire ecosystem of geospatial information, including
policy makers, users, technology experts and researchers.



OpenStreetMaps enable a wide variety of organizations, businesses and
governments to benefit from the free to use map data that is created by
volunteers around the globe. This initiative is playing a critical role in
helping these organizations in achieving their goals by leveraging
geospatial data. In view of your involvement in the mapping community, I
extend an* invitation to you to be a part of Geo4SDGs seminar and GeoSmart
India on 3-5 December 2019 at Hyderabad.*



*If someone is keen to deliver a presentation on their work, please don’t
hesitate to contact me.*



I look forward to your positive response.



Thank you and regards,
Megha

Re: [OSM-talk] Facebook mapping highways using AI in collaboration with OpenStreetMap

[Naveen Francis]

Thanks Simon for the caution.

Taking the of help AI doesn't mean that we do comprise on the quality.

All the methods for initial road tracing, GPS tracing, Satellite image
tracing or AI-assisted human mapping (which I have tried) has limitations.

On Indian roads, we try to document as much as possible so that we don't
make errors.  <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/India:Roads>

On the rhetoric question:-
We are using OSM maps life savings projects. https://keralarescue.in/map/ .
(2018 Kerala floods maps)
So both quantity and quality are equally important.

Another good thing is we have already implemented your suggestion -
sensible comparison would be completeness measures per road categories

Categories wise completeness
NH : https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/India:National_Highways_(statewise)
SH:- https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/India:Roads#State_highways

All the best for fixing Tiger imports.

Including my ₹ 0.10 (Indian ten paisa)

Echoes same thoughts of Brazilian Real.

AI-assisted human mapping tools will be a good aid for the OSM community.

"Map faster, Map better".

40,00,000 kms to be mapped in India.
15 years of OSM mapped 18,00,000 kms.

Re: [Talk-in] Open Government Data- India Health Facilities Import

[Naveen Francis]

Thank you, Aruna

This is a very important dataset which has to be imported to OSM.
Every time when we discuss with govt on open geodata, we lacked a use-case
to show.
This import will help in that direction.

And as per osm-analytics tool
,
there are only 6549 hospitals mapped till now in India.
This import will help to add more hospitals.

Thanks

Re: [OSM-talk] Language used in OSM forum/wiki/mailing list

[Naveen Francis]

Hello Frederik,

All the entities like forum/wiki/talk are global.
It would better to have common guidelines forum/wiki/talk.

Splitting the guidelines each forum say,  India forum, Germany forum would
not do any good.

I understand your point and can be part of the guideline for the forum.
First, raise in the forum.
Second, raise to Moderator.
Moderator can take the call ?

When Verdy was blocked in the Wiki , we didn't had any policy.  (still, we
don't have)
It was discussed on the random talk page.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User_talk:Lyx#Verdy_p_2

Thanks,
Naveen Francis

[OSM-talk] Language used in OSM forum/wiki/mailing list

[Naveen Francis]

Hello,

Is there any policy on the language used in OSM talk/forum/wiki ?
I was going through Thailand OSM forum
<https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=64430>.
For a raising a concern we need not use abusive language.
Users using abusive language should be warned, suspended or terminated
depending on the degree of the abuse.

Thanks,

Re: [Talk-in] Missing al5-boundaries in India

[Naveen Francis]

Hello,

The first step for the project would be to find how many districts are
already mapped.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Districts_in_India

Overpass query will give us districts relations. (It is placed in above
page)
We can break down them to state list.
Then will be able to find the gap.
After that, we can try to get data from the different source.

Please add district relations to state-specific lists.

Example:-
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Districts_in_Andhra_Pradesh
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Districts_in_Kerala

[Talk-in] Fwd: [Maps-l] "Why OpenStreetMap is in Serious Trouble"

[Naveen Francis]

FWD 

-- Forwarded message --
From: Chris Koerner 
Date: Fri, Feb 23, 2018 at 10:44 PM
Subject: [Maps-l] "Why OpenStreetMap is in Serious Trouble"
To: map...@lists.wikimedia.org


In a blog post by Serge Wroclawski, a long time OpenStreetMap contributor
and the founder of the OpenStreetMap US organization, outlines reasons why
he believes OSM is in trouble.

https://blog.emacsen.net/blog/2018/02/16/osm-is-in-trouble/

A choice quote.

"The first problem that I feel plagues OSM is that the OpenStreetMap
Foundation views the mission of the project to provide the world a
geographic database, but not geographic services."

[Talk-in] Adding wikidata tag for Rivers and National parks in India.

[Naveen Francis]

I am trying to add wikidata tags for rivers and national parks.
Noticed few are mapped as relation(group of lines) and others mapped as
shape.
Is there any standard we follow ?

Re: [Talk-in] Use MapRoulette to improve OSM - India data

[Naveen Francis]

Yes. Not all national highways have wikipedia article
Master list of all highways are here

We have about 452 national highways.
In english wikipedia, we have only articles for 255 highways.
For old numbering we have about 48 articles, that has to be deleted later.

Doing via script is good.

Districts and NHs are relations.
We may have to update the script,which Srikanth has shared.

Hi Nikhil,

IMHO it will good to keep SHs,MDRs separate from village roads. Already we
have mapped SHs.

We will be able to know how much we have mapped on this front.

[Naveen Francis]

https://gnssusermeet2015.isac.gov.in/index.php/gnss/gnss2015



Respected Sir/Madam,

The GNSS (GAGAN-IRNSS) user meet 2015 information has been hosted on *www.
isro.gov.in http://isro.gov.in* website. The webpage contains general
user meet information, registration process, paper submission process, etc.

Kindly note that the GNSS User Meet (GAGAN-IRNSS) has been rescheduled to
8th Oct, 2015 and the registitation is free for all.

This is for you kind information.

With best wishes and warm regards,
Organising Committee,
GNSS (GAGAN-IRNSS) User Meet 2015

Quoting gnssusermeet2...@isac.gov.in:

Respected Sir/Madam,

The GNSS User Meet (GAGAN-IRNSS) has been rescheduled to 8th Oct, 2015. The
website will be hosted shortly.

With warm regards,
Organising Committee
GNSS USer Meet 2015

Quoting gnssusermeet2...@isac.gov.in:


*Respected Sir/Madam,*

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), Govt. of India, is executing two
satellite based navigation systems for application in key utility sectors
of the nation. Indian SBAS system, GAGAN, has been jointly implemented by
ISRO and Airports Authority of India (AAI) for civil aviation over Indian
air space and has been certified for civil aviation services (APV 1.0).
Non-aviation users also can benefit from its services.  IRNSS, an
indigenous regional satellite based positioning system developed by ISRO,
is established to provide independent position solution for critical
national applications. IRNSS, with four satellites already in orbit, can be
utilized for stand-alone position solutions. IRNSS, in its full
configuration, is expected to be operational by 2016.

GNSS User meet was organized at ISRO Satellite Centre (ISAC) Bengaluru
during February 2012, with a view to provide thrust to the development of
user receivers and GNSS based applications.   *It is planned to organise a
GNSS User Meet this year at ISRO Satellite Centre, Bangalore on 10th
September 2015. The theme of the meet is “Towards self-reliance in
satellite navigation” with emphasis on the vision of “Make In India” and to
broad base reach to wider user community. * A one-day event has been
planned  which will include  plenary sessions, technical sessions, panel
discussion and exhibition of navigation-related equipments with
participation from industry, GNSS application developers, hardware
manufacturers and solution providers, facility users, government
organizations and academia. The event is jointly hosted by ISRO and
Airports Authority of India.

The market for navigation receivers in India, be it handheld, tabletop or
smart phone-based, has huge potential and is bound to grow exponentially
with increasing demand for a wide variety of navigation applications. The
organisers of the meet solicit a wider participation of the industry,
users, professionals, academia, application developers, etc,   in
anticipation of a bigger role in offering/utilizing position and timing
services of IRNSS and GAGAN in India.

ISRO/AAI takes pleasure in extending you the invitation to participate in
the event. Being in the business of navigation it would be in your
professional/business interest to be part of this meet. *The registration
and program details of the event will be made available on ISRO website:
www.isro.gov.in http://www.isro.gov.in in the first week of August 2015.*
The website will also host the details of sponsorship of the events,
technical sessions, exhibition stalls, etc.

Looking forward to your participation and nomination from your organisation
in the GNSS user meet 2015.

For any clarification, kindly send email to *gnssusermeet2...@isac.gov.in
gnssusermeet2...@isac.gov.in* or contact: *080-2508 4260
080-2508%204260/ 4263/ 4279/ 4336.*

[Talk-in] [Press] Crowdsourcing to map road network in Kerala

[Naveen Francis]

http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/kerala/crowdsourcing-to-map-road-network-in-kerala/article7238824.ece
Crowdsourcing to map road network in Kerala T. Nandakumar
To monitor movement of school buses, LPG tankers, taxis, and
autorickshaws

Aid agencies and volunteers deployed in Nepal after the devastating
earthquake on April 25 depended on a community-driven mapping initiative
for crisis response and relief work. Thousands of OpenStreetMap (OSM)
volunteers from across India and other parts of the world helped provide
detailed and accurate maps of roads, villages, and buildings in the
affected areas to help relief organisations locate people at risk and
deliver goods and services to the needy.

This crowdsourced mapping project will soon be used to track vehicles on
the roads in Kerala. The International Centre for Free and Open Source
Software (ICFOSS) and the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing
(CDAC) are embarking on a project commissioned by the Transport Department
to map the road network in Kerala using OSM.

“In the first phase, the OSM maps will be used to track 16,000 private
buses plying the road network,” says Transport Commissioner R. Sreelekha.
The system will enable officials manning a master control room in
Thiruvananthapuram to detect speeding and time and route violations. The
vehicles will be fitted with a GPS locator-cum-communication device. “We
have plans to monitor the movement of school buses, LPG tankers, taxis, and
autorickshaws in a phased manner,” Ms. Sreelekha said.

OSM involves crowdsourcing to create data for mapping. The field data
generated by volunteers including students will be supplemented with
satellite imagery to create detailed maps. The OSM allows free downloading
of all data and permits free use under a FOSS licence.

The pilot project will be implemented in Kozhikode where the district
administration has already taken up a crowdsourced initiative to map
waterbodies and garbage disposal sites. While most of the PWD roads in
Kerala have been mapped, secondary roads are not yet charted.

“We need basic mapping information for the whole State for a variety of
applications. Commercial service providers charge heavily for the data
while the OSM approach is cost effective,” explains P.M. Sasi, Associate
Director, CDAC.

“The OSM initiative has the potential to provide accurate, updated
information, once the network of volunteers is in place,” says Satish Babu,
Director, ICFOSS. “The data created under the project will be available
under a Free Data licence, making it the foundation for numerous
development initiatives and disaster response plans. In that sense, it will
be a sustainable investment for the future,” he said.

 The workflow that Onkar suggested seems sensible to me, but it boils

 down to the availability of data and how we can go about it.


 I think the starting point is an exhaustive database of these structures
 which has a usable primary key. The current WLM list has descriptions, but
 not names which makes finding these structures a bit of a hunt.

 What can be done with the available data is to get coordinates to the
 town/village level and map those which are not on osm.

 hi,

 I'm a Wikipedian from India. We're doing a competition this September
 called Wiki Loves Monuments (an effort through a competition to get pics of
 various Indian monuments on Wikipedia). We scraped the list of monuments
 defined so by the Archaeological Survey of India here -
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_India/Wiki_Loves_Monuments



 Hi Pradeep, this is an amazing list that will be of useful reference. I'm
 sure a lot of the items on the list have been mapped out, especially in
 Hampi and Mahabalipuram. I'm not sure what is the best way of ezporting the
 coordinates to wikipedia though.

 With the available tools it looks like too much of a manual effort. How
 was this done for other countries participating in wiki loves monuments?
 Did they use openstreetmap in some way?


Hi Arun,

AFIK WLM team of Romania uses OSM.

 Each of the state pages has a table that requires geographic
 co-ordinates. Help in getting them would be appreciated. The data would be
 available on Wikipedia and could be made available on OSM as well, I think.
 (OSM Loves Monuments?)

 warm regards,
 Pradeep

  waterways ?
