Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Splitting of CIvil Parishes?

I have mapped CPs which cross through the middle of a townland. OSM is flexible and allows you to do that. There's nothing wrong with doing that. Yes the PlaceNamesNI site seems to match how you've mapped it in OSM, however maybe they are using some data model which isn't flexible and doesn't

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] OSM Ireland chapter - reboot

I agree with Dave, it would be good to get a formal OSM body set up. Yes, for doing more mapping events, you don't need a formal body, but you do it you want to be an OSMF local chapter, and I suspect it would be easier to talk to government bodies (or big orgs) if you're from an official body.

Interesting. But the only reference to a copyright licence is the "Licensed under “Other (Not Open)”." They also have a keyword of "open data" so who know Without a copyright licence it's "all rights reserved". A gap in Dublin & Cork is to be expected, there are no townlands there! In OSM

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Bar v pub

Hi all, For the differentiating rule is based on the osm-carto style choice. Is the normal drink there a pint? Then it's a pub. Is it a cocktail? Then it's a bar. Though it's not too important. In Hiberno-English the terms are used interchangibly. Perhaps in the UK with their brewery pubs

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] DIT study of Balbriggan

Hi, That's a great idea, some minor thoughts and a big one: If the students use Mapillary that would be great, because it means other people can check the "source" in case someone made a mistake. And we can use the mapillary images ourselves to map things the students might have missed. JOSM
