[Talk-ca] Submit your session proposal for SOTM USA
Hi all! (crossposting talk, talk-us, talk-ca) The deadline for session proposals for the State of the Map USA conference is on *Friday, August 31*, so submit your session idea soon: http://stateofthemap.us/form. The conference will be made up for talks by community members on everything from tools and techniques to working with and contributing to OSM data to showcases of it in use by companies, governments, nonprofits, and everybody to bigger picture discussions of where OSM should be moving in the future. The State of the Map USA conference will bring together people working with, adding to, and advocating for OpenStreetMap. Our community is filled with people doing interesting, cutting edge, and important work. This is your chance to share it with us all. You can submit your session proposal here - we just need 200 words or less about what you want to talk about. If you have questions, email me or hit us up on Twitter at @sotmus. Hope to hear from you soon! Best, Martijn -- martijn van exel http://oegeo.wordpress.com ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
[Talk-ca] Proposed mechanical edits: GeoBase/CanVec Service Surface and GeoBase/CanVec name spaces
The easiest way to fix this may just be with a text editor and xapi/overpass queries. First do a query to get a file of affected objects in a given area, then load the area in a text editor and do a search for the double space. Jumping the search ahead should take you not only to the given object like josm would but should position your cursor right on the affected spot. This way you can check that you are not breaking anything before correcting the space and moving on. Alternatively the search and replace mechanism in the editor could be used, either manually or if we know for sure it is acceptable to do, a replace all. I tried doing a taginfo query to find out how many objects were affected but couldn't figure out a syntax to work correctly. If anyone knows how many objects are affected by this that would help in determining whether manually checking each one is feasible, or whether it would be better to just fix them en-masse and try to clean up mistakes afterwards. -AndrewBuck ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
