Ouin quand tu ote ce polygone le damage estimate n'est plus valide. Tout ce que tu vois sur mapnik en brun, est brulee. Donc s.v.p le laisser On May 13, 2016 9:14 PM, "Pierre Béland" wrote: > James, > > je ne vais pas enlever d'infos sans en discuter. > > J'ai Créé une carte

Hey Martijn, Was hoping you guys would add zoom 19 to the recent update. Submitted a few months ago on the feedback tool already. *Regards,* *Hans* On Wed, May 11, 2016 at 9:05 AM, Martijn van Exel wrote: > Hi all, > > ImproveOSM has just seen a data refresh that I thought

Re: [Talk-ca] Red Cross and Fort McMurray Fires

Hello everyone OsmCanada had a meeting tonight and have traced polygons estimating the areas damaged and have named them "Fort McMurray Fire Damage Estimate". They are tagged as brownfield as the buildings have been destroyed or burnt down. The major areas affected are Thickwood, Beacon Hill and

Re: [Talk-ca] Red Cross and Fort McMurray Fires

Hi, Does any local OpenStreetMap local team organize mapathon events working around tasks #22,#23,#24 ? I mean perhaps Vancouver, Toronto, Ottawa, Montréal ? Here in Québec city, the community is small , so few volonteers engaged ... but why not trying ? Le 13 mai 2016 8:17 PM, "James"

Les brownfields à l'intérieur du grand poligone est parce que c'était des zones residentielles, mais ils vont être reconstruits plus tard, et j'aime mieux ne pas les supprimées On Fri, May 13, 2016 at 8:41 PM, Pierre Béland wrote: > James, pour faciliter la gestion de ces

Re: [Talk-ca] Red Cross and Fort McMurray Fires

What exactly do you need of me? Prioritize areas to get mapped? We have tasks for the buildings, addresses and streets(which I think have been imported via CanVec) and a validation layer On Fri, May 13, 2016 at 2:14 PM, Dan Joseph wrote: > Hi everyone, > > I'm helping

Re: [Talk-ca] Red Cross and Fort McMurray Fires

Hi James, It looks like some good progress is being made on the tasks. Tasks #22 and #23 are focused on mapping different features but it looks like #24 overlaps in focus. Perhaps that task should be archived until the other two are completed to avoid confusion among newcomers to the site? Task

Re: [Talk-ca] Red Cross and Fort McMurray Fires

Have you talked to dale.ku...@redcross.org? A coordinated approach might be better. OSM can use data obtained through the Gov Canada open data portal and has done in the past as far as I am aware. Thanks John On 13 May 2016 at 14:37, Dan Joseph wrote: > Hi James, > >

Re: [Talk-ca] Red Cross and Fort McMurray Fires

Yes CanVec data is compatible with OSM as there was an agreement between the Canadian gov and osm in the past. NRCan even serves up osm files for their CanVec Data here: http://ftp2.cits.rncan.gc.ca/OSM/pub/ #24 is to go deeper as in validating that data imported/mapped in 22 and 23 as some

Hi John, Dale is the American Red Cross GIS Team Lead. I'm on his team and have been deployed to Canada to work in-person with the Canadian Red Cross. In terms of OSM-CA / Red Cross coordination, I can be considered the point of contact on the RC side until someone within Canadian Red Cross is
