Hi Sebastian,

Thanks for your thoughts.  I'm sure we're all well intentioned.

If I understand your proposal, what you're saying is we build a wiki

in that area.  Then a local mapper would check against that when 
mapping significant local features?


So that raises two issues I see.

Firstly, since it's defined in the negative it relies on someone 
seeking out the local authority and recording their wishes. Rather 
than imposing a positive obligation to seek permission. In that way it 
seems a little different to what others seem to be proposing.


Secondly, we may end up with a wiki page with the areas and 
significant features all laid out.  Which may be counter to what we're 
trying to achieve here.


+1 ...

Usually it will be a large area - many square kilometres rather than a 
small area.
The name of the 'tribe' should be enough for 'local' mappers to 
determine the area, some areas overlap which is a problem as you would 
need permission from both.

I second that the elders wishes should be respected.

With regards to documenting.
One way would be to mark the local indigenous area/tribe/... And then 
outline in the wiki what should not be mapped in order to respect the 
wishes. I recall a recent blog post or Diary entry regarding 
indigenous communities mapping.


In a sense this falls in the same category as 'I don't want my 
backyard shed or pool mapped from satellite images'. Although the 
cultural aspects are not the same :-)


In some areas backyard pools can form a significant fire fighting 
resource .. and there is some merit in mapping them. Usually the pool 
owner signifies permission for this by placing a small sign at the 
property entrance that fire fighters can see.

How do we actually contact "local elders"?  Where do we record their
consent?  What if they change their minds?

Are we saying other mappers should delete these sites if they see them on
the map?  How do they know if approval was obtained?

Or is this just intended as a guideline, and not be enforced?

It seems all a bit impractical to me.  The information is out there.

is this form of censorship practised anywhere else in OSM - maybe for other
indigenous people - that we could copy their model?

OK.

Added this:

Aboriginal & Torres Straight Islander sites

Please practice extreme care when mapping sites (e.g rock art, ceremonial
places) that may be of significance to Aboriginal or Torres Straight
Islander peoples.

Only map those sites that are sign-posted, or have been publicly advertised.

In all other cases, please consult with the local Elders before mapping any
site, & abide by their wishes if they say they don't want them mapped.

This should be documented clearly. Whilst there is a lot of well known art
work, there are a significant number of sacred areas that should not be
mapped or identified due to the cultural significance. We only need one
person transgressing due to OSM to cause offence. I have just worked with
the local owners during an emergency and it is amazing the amount of
artifacts that were identified that could disappear if mapped accurately by

There has been discussion here previously about mapping ceremonial trails,
& the consensus was that it should only be done with the agreement &
approval of the local Elders, so the same principle should apply to these

Should that be documented as OSM (maybe AU?) policy, or left to the

I have tagged them as historic=archeological site, documented here
 and
that is clearly approriate.
Also tagged as tourism=artwork documented here
 and I believe
this to be appropriate as they constitute public art with touristic
significance - you travel as a tourist to this area and a major drawcard is
the rock art. They are in the public space.

The issue about the sacred-ness -it is not the job of OSM to make this
call. If you think an item is too private to map (perhaps such as a farmers
internal road network) then don't map it. Tthis is the mappers call.

I don't understand the discussion about rock shelters. They are a creation
of nature and happen everywhere. Who cares whether you cook in them or
merely seek shelter from the weather. I would suggest creating rock art
takes more than a day and therefore they were all cooking sites.

Ancient art in its pure manifestation is of historic significance as well
as fascinating to many people.

I think that would be the safest way of doing it, because they are

The ones I've seen mapped so far are well signposted and marked out,

Yep. Only those sites that are commonly known have been mapped.

Others, even some I know of and some with websites, are not on the map 
nor commonly visited.

I think my take is;

a rock engraving with no paint => site_type=petroglyph
a rock painting with no engraving => site_type=rock_painting

The ones I've seen mapped so far are well signposted and marked out, widely
accepted as public knowledge.

I've got no real input into what "type" of art we call them, but one
thought re the tourism side of things.

Are you only tagging those sites that are open & already advertised as
tourism sites?

I think that would be the safest way of doing it, because they are
considered sacred sites, so we should be taking care to not show the
location of things that the local peoples may not want shown?

Thanks

[talk-au] Aboriginal art sites

2019-03-31 Thread Gavin Scott
I don't think site_type = cave_painting is correct as aboriginal art is not
usually in cave.
Aboriginal art is made in all sorts of places - under rock overhangs (where
it is protected from the weather), but can also be on rock faces with no
overhang. Sometimes it is in caves.

Re: [talk-au] Aboriginal art sites.

2019-03-31 Thread Andrew Harvey
Hey I was just thinking about this myself the other day.

"Petroglyph is image created by removing part of a rock surface by
incising, picking, carving, or abrading, as a form of rock art." So when
there is on engraving, only paint then petroglypth would be incorrect based
on that definition.

Rock art (parietal art) is a superset of petroglyph. That is cave paintings
and petroglypths are both forms of rock art, at least from my reading of
wikipedia.

So I think,

an engraving with no paint => site_type:petroglyph
a rock art with no engraving => site_type:cave_painting

with site_type:parietal_art being a valid less specific tag for both.

I agree that tourism=artwork doesn't seem right, given they were not
created for tourism in the first place, and not necessarily as artworks
either!

Humm up in Kakadu they are tagged

 "tourism"="artwork"
 "historic"="archaeological_site"
no site_type.

I don't like the tourism tag for them so much, prefer the historic as 
that better describes them?
