subject [OSM-talk] Crisis mapping - assistance requested for infrastructure 
mapping in Christchurch :

 Hi OSM mappers,
 As most of you are probably aware, we had a severe earthquake in
 Christchurch, New Zealand this week, killing over 100 people and
 demolishing or damaging hundreds, possibly thousands of the following:

I created a Garmin gmapsupp.img with OSM data and additionally the
map from www.nzopengps.org as extra layers as it has good data too.

On the Garmin device, go to Map Info and deactivate the nzopengps
layers in order to see the OSM layers.

I have put the download of this Garmin map on my web page (normally
used only for New Caledonia maps):
www.oesterlin.ile.nc/gps

Feel free to give feedback!

it does indeed - this is government-derived data, originally sourced
from LINZ, and even better quality once NZ open GPS get their hands on
it

 layers in order to see the OSM layers.

there's also a .png tile set available of the original (LINZ) data.
got to http://www.openstreetmap.org.nz/
click the '+' at top-right
select LINZ - Joe Richards import

we're working on the import of this into osm

update: chch building mapping is going very well, thanks to whoever is helping.

the other areas badly hit were mosgiel, lyttleton and sumner (all
suburbs in/close to christchurch) - if anyone could add data there,
that would be fantastic also

[OSM-talk] Crisis mapping - assistance requested for infrastructure mapping in Christchurch

2011-02-24 Thread Robin Paulson
Hi OSM mappers,
As most of you are probably aware, we had a severe earthquake in
Christchurch, New Zealand this week, killing over 100 people and
demolishing or damaging hundreds, possibly thousands of the following:
buildings
roads
bridges
water mains
electricity supplies
sewage drains
other major infrastructure.

NZ mappers have been discussing how they can help, and we have decided
it would be useful to trace as many of these pieces of infrastructure
as possible in the affected area. Christchurch has very good Bing
imagery taken last year, allowing pre-quake items to be traced quite
accurately.

High quality post-earthquake imagery will be available in the next
24-48 hours [1], to enable further tracing [2], to show the current
situation.

Both pre- and post-quake tracing are requested, to allow appraisal of
the differences caused by the earthquake.

If anyone can help, please head over to
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-43.563lon=172.7zoom=11 and lend a
hand.

Tracing of altered natural features would also be useful, although
infrastructure is of more importance for the moment

Any further questions, please ask.

[1] we're not sure where or how yet - perhaps someone can assist here
also, getting the images into Potlatch/JOSM/etc.?
[2] with appropriate tags for damaged/re-arranged items - would the
likes of 'date_on' be appropriate here? please advise if you can
suggest the most suitable tags to use


thanks,

i've been informed there will be info posted on:
http://maps.eq.org.nz/
along with access details for WMS and downloads in the enar future

this promises to be very high resolution, so will greatly assist any mapping

is there any possibility richard, of this being included in a potlatch release?
