Re: [OSM-talk] WhatOSM, a guide for contribution tools

+1, taking pictures for Mapillary or OpenStreetCam is not really competiting with time for OSM contribution. Moreover, I gave a talk about using street-level imagery for contributing to OSM [1] to this year State of the Map. Clearly, pictures taken by other people allowed me to spend hours

Re: [OSM-talk] WhatOSM, a guide for contribution tools

I don't really mind having Mapillary in there, but if you do, you'd have to mention OpenStreetCam as well, of course. When I go out to survey using making Mapillary pictures, it's true I'm not adding data using Vespucci or Walking Papers, but I wouldn't do those things anyway. Making automated

Re: [OSM-talk] WhatOSM, a guide for contribution tools

Hello, Thanks for this idea. In fact these videos can have an interesting value for mapping. I opened an issue on the repository : https://framagit.org/PanierAvide/Pic4Carto.js/issues/33 I'm not very sure yet how to query Wikimedia Commons to retrieve these videos, I have to read some docs

Re: [OSM-talk] WhatOSM, a guide for contribution tools

Good morning Adrien, I have an idea how to improve it. For example, for this lake http://projets.pavie.info/pic4carto/index.html?from=1490466554238#17/46.35173/6.79455 I see three photos from Wikimedia category all right. But I do not see the 1 minute 19 seconds video of this lake in .webm

Re: [OSM-talk] WhatOSM, a guide for contribution tools

I was reading the famous policy. If I understand well, I cannot name without authorization the project WhatOSM (meaning that I can still ask for authorization ?). But if I name it "What ? OSM !" it is OK, because it doesn't mix OSM with the name, and it uses OSM word mark correctly ? Adrien.

The trademark policy in question was just a draft and we haven't heard anything about it moving beyond draft since. On Thu, Sep 21, 2017 at 1:14 PM, PanierAvide wrote: > Thanks for pointing this out. I'm clearly not an expert of legal issues, > so the following may

Re: [OSM-talk] WhatOSM, a guide for contribution tools

Thanks for pointing this out. I'm clearly not an expert of legal issues, so the following may probably not make sense. The goal of this tool is to help new contributors, and making them more easily start contributing to OSM. If we give it an obscure name, not referring to OSM, then where is

You might want to reconsider the name as you started this project 2 weeks ago and XYZosm or osmXYZ or OpenXYZMap are "copyrighted" and goes against the new usage policy. On Thu, Sep 21, 2017 at 1:45 PM, PanierAvide wrote: > Hi everyone, > > As you may know, OSM has a

Hi everyone, As you may know, OSM has a whole set of tools allowing various thematic editing and contribution. Every contributor can find something to do, however when you are new to this world, you don't where these tools are and which one is made for you. In order to make it easier
