[Talk-transit] Railway. Source= GPS

Hi I've seen a few railway ways where it says the source is GPS. I've tried a couple of times but got absolutely no signal. I guess the roof of the carriages are shielded. Short of sticking an aerial on the roof or walking the tracks, what tips could you give me to get a recording of my

Re: [OSM-talk] Should Bridges be independent of their ways?

My Lord! What happened to my question?!? You lot don't half go on. :-) Back to basics: Are we all agreed that, in principle, it would be better to be able to have a single bridge to carry multiple ways? http://osm.org/go/eukOONRtk--

[OSM-talk] Should Bridges be independent of their ways?

Hi I have a bridge carrying a cycle lane, dual carriage way (with central reservtion) footpath. As far as I can see is they each need there own bridge the result gets a bit crowded. Is there a way to simplify this? If the bright was independent it could also mean that the ways wouldn't need

Re: [OSM-talk] Train station names: Place Station ou just Place ?

I believe the usage of the building should be explicitly defined, so station should be used. Most people who disagree are discussing it from the point of view of using the map for the sole purpose of using a train. This is not the case. My home town station has the same name as at least two

[OSM-talk] JOSM display is squashed

Hi I've downloaded some data to JOSM but the data is squashed in appearance in the north-south direction. It causes inaccuracies when I map. For instance i drew a rectangle at about 45 degrees, but when it showed in mapnik it looked like a parallelogram. I've downloaded the latest Java JOSM.

Re: [OSM-talk] source=(survey, yahoo, gps...)

John Surely if a way needs shifting, it needs shifting, irrelevant of what the source was? - I've seen people, quite rightly, removing nonsensical source tags such as Source=JOSM/Potlatch!! JOSM Ptlatch are _not_ the source, just the means by which to input the data into OSM. The

Re: [OSM-talk] source=(survey, yahoo, gps...)

...without the right information being presented to later users. Not sure what you men by that. However... If there are 10 traces by GPS for a way I think it's out of alignment from the average of them, then I would move it. Irrelevant of what the source tag for the way. Cheers Dave F.

Re: [OSM-talk] source=(survey, yahoo, gps...)

You don't have access to the 10 traces, Yes I would. In Potlatch if I press G or click the GPS icon it display all uploaded traces. I should have said assuming none uploads the information how do you know your information is any better than what already

Heh. Sounds a bit like the geo information which is captured in the Open Plaques project (http://www.openplaques.org/) which I run... Ah! I saw your Freedom Of Information request on What Do They Know for Bath. I assume you sent requests to all authorities. Were there any that didn't/were able
