Hi everyone,

I will be in Tacloban for a night next week.  If there are Tacloban
mappers around, perhaps we can squeeze in a short
geo-fellowship/drinks?  Contact me offlist.
Thanks!

 I understand that, but I mean as a memory aid for places you have actually
 been to.

Here's something that Ed Parsons said in an email about Google
StreetView usage in OSM:

 the relevant clause in the terms of service is..

 2(e) use the Products in a manner that gives you or any other person access 
 to mass downloads or bulk feeds of any Content, including but not limited to 
 numerical latitude or longitude coordinates, imagery, and visible map data;

 so checking the odd street names is OK.. but every street name I would 
 suggest would represent a bulk feed.

sign is not copyrighted by google, even if you see it through a

Btw, tracing from Gmaps is different and is a copyright infringement.

Andrew, 


On Streetview,  we often see people in their garden. I suspect they dont  give 
a license for their image to Google. The same with municipalities. I suspect 
they dont give Google a license for their street signs. 


Unless you can prove that Google have a license for that.  ;)

Re: [OSM-talk] Data copied from Google Maps

2012-11-04 Per discussione Andrew MacKinnon
In my opinion, copying from Google Street View is still a legally
dubious thing to do. There is no formal licensing agreement with
Google that I know of. It is perfectly fine to capture data by taking
pictures yourself, but relying on Google Street View cars to take
those pictures is legally dubious. Google Street View is often
outdated anyway. Copying from Google Maps is clearly not allowed.

I realize that we don't want to alienate users, but I think that OSM
still needs to be strict about deleting contributions from legally
dubious sources. Many new users simply don't realize that copying from
Google is not allowed, and may have made many other contributions from
legal sources (which will not be deleted). In other cases, users don't
realize that there are sources that OSM is legitimately allowed to
copy from - e.g. I have had to explain to users in Canada that copying
road names from Google is not OK, but copying from Geobase and Canvec
is perfectly acceptable.

This is an interesting discussion about where to draw the line. To use 
one example: I could walk to the end of my street right now and look at 
the street sign; I could then do the same for all neighbouring roads in 
my locality. However, I could go to Google Street View and do the same 
thing.


For simple pieces of factual data like that, obviously in the public 
domain before Google began to compile their own imagery, my gut feeling 
is that this is arguably OK to do in a pinch. Whilst not preferred, and 
'trumpable' by another user submitting empirical observations, it's not 
a clear infringement of Google's cache of data as they never had 
exclusive access to the information prior to their own compilation efforts.


You can obtain lists of street names from Royal Mail - heck, you can 
scrape them from PD mapping sources. The road network hasn't changed 
that dramatically in 100 years, save for trunk roads and infill in 
increasingly urban areas (IMO).


However, 1:1 copying of complete topographical or road network 
information is far past the mark and also both a clear infringement of 
copyrighted materials and the licence under which access to said data is 
granted by the owner(s).


If you copied Street View information wholesale, it's also a similarly 
clear infringement of licensed, copyrighted materials. Just the street 
names, however, isn't (on its own) a capital offence nor an obvious 
infringement of copyright. That all said, it shouldn't be encouraged as 
the sole source of information when compiling OSM maps - all it then 
does is further encourage laziness.


What's absolutely clear as unallowable behaviour is for contributors to 
only rely upon road names from trad line-drawn maps, simply copying 
verbatim. Trap roads abound...

[OSM-talk] Vandalism at Estero Bay?

2012-11-04 Per discussione malenki
User Eraque22 asked on help.osm.org what the issue is with Estero Bay
since no water was rendered there. I added a multipolygon to the
existing multiple segments of natural=water (not created by Eraque22) so
that the water started to get rendered and answered the question¹.
The next thing I realised the rendering seemed to stop again.

Then I saw the user had deleted all the natural=water ways and nearly
all islands and started to draw them anew in mostly worse quality then
before. Of course a lot is missing.

I send him a message asking for the reason of the deletions. Though he
was mapping all the time - as I realised the deletions, as I send the
message and still two hours after I sent it - there was no answer.

What to do? Hope he draws it all anew quite good?

use Google StreetView to build a competing mapping product is indeed a
breach of its StreetView licence.

But neither your gut feeling nor mine matters very much.  We could
both be wrong.   Us playing amateur lawyers just doesn't advance the
project.

That's why the only position that makes sense (for anything less than
100% unencumbered public domain data) is to seek permission from the
data owner or to go and do the survey.

My feeling is that most OSMers would rather take the time, put in the
effort, and make sure the result is free and open beyond question,
rather than take shortcuts that put a shadow over our project.

It doesn't really matter whether the information is copyrightable.
You can only access this information through the Google website and to
use it you have to agree to the terms of use of that website,
including agreeing that you wouldn't systematically extract data from
it.

I agree incompatible data should be removed from OSM but it makes no
sense for a normal user to go around deleting it because they have no
way to remove the information from the odbl database, which includes
the history of edits.  This can be done by redacting that data and
the DWG currently has this ability.  Also, as the beginning of this
thread showed, a user is unlikely to know what licenses or agreements
there are between the source and the OSM contributor.

 Li, I beg to differ. While I agree that grading of a 4x4 track is subjective,

 The real issue is how important the data is. As I have mentioned, I am 
 concerned that maps are being rendered that ignore this data. Routing engines 
 are potentially sending people down roads that they, and their vehicles are 
 ill suited to. Bad things will definitely happen.
 
 The routing people are saying but these tags don't even show on the OSM 
 maps, why should we worry ?. 
 
 And as to subjective, while there will always be borderline cases, I don't 
 think it would be too hard to divide tracks up into -
 
 * 4x4 recommended - you will might be OK in a conventional car or (better 
 still) an SUV but you have been warned.
 
 * 4x4 required - you really need a stock 4x4, a real one with (eg) low ratio.
 
 * 4x4 extreme - this is for the death or glory boys, they need experience and 
 modified vehicles. This is a recent addition !
 
 I am pretty sure that if you and I spent a couple of weeks having some

 Hi David, just my 2 cents on 4WD_only tags.
 
 By adding a 4x4 recommended tag will add to the complexity because it's kind 
 of subjective as to which roads/tracks are traversable in a 2WD vehicle, 
 therefor adding another option for this key will further complicate the

[talk-au] NSW Alphanumeric routes

2012-11-04 Per discussione Mark Pulley
The NSW RTA has a web site up on the new alphanumeric routes, including maps of 
the new routes.

www.rta.nsw.gov.au/roadprojects/projects/alpha_numeric/index.html

I was wondering when we should update the route numbers to the new routes.

Some have already been done, e.g. A41 (Bathurst to Albury via Mid Western and 
Olympic Highways) - the road signs for this went up several years ago (although 
some have since been coverplated).

I am thinking that some would definitely be OK to do now (e.g. convert NR 32 
(Great Western/Mitchell/Barrier Highways) to A32, as the number is similar)

I'm not so sure about updating some other routes (e.g. Oxley Highway NR 34 
becomes B56, Snowy Mountains Highway NR 18 becomes B72) - as the numbers are 
different, are these best left until the route number signs change on the 
ground?

(Also, are we allowed to use the RTA web site as a source for an ODBL database 
like OSM?)

Re: [talk-au] traffic lights on dual carriageway intersections

2012-11-04 Per discussione Ian Steer

 By choosing to place traffic light not on the intersection node, you
are failing to represent that this is an intersection of two roads,
controlled by traffic signals.

I don't see how it is failing to represent that - the intersection is there
(the ways intersect at nodes), and there are traffic signals *before* the
intersection (not smack-bang in the middle of the intersection)


 Instead you are choosing to represent There is a stop line here and
traffic signal and further on there is an intersection.

- but isn't that EXACTLY what we have - a stop line with a traffic signal,
with an intersection further on ?

- and if we were REALLY keen, the same *could* be done for single carriage
way intersections (but I'm not suggesting that that is a sensible option)

Because our current schema indicates that an intesection is controlled
by signals by placing the traffic signals on the intersecting node.
Traffic lights do occur before intersections or the immediate vicinity
without controlling traffic movements through that intersection.

It is a meaningful respresentation.  In many North American cities the
signals hang right in the centre of the intersection.  Are you saying
these should be mapped differently just because the lights are located
in a different location?  As far as the road user is concerned, they
are the same.  They don't care where the traffic signals are - they
care there are lights at the corner of 6th and Vine.

 - and if we were REALLY keen, the same *could* be done for single carriage
 way intersections (but I'm not suggesting that that is a sensible option)

Exactly.  This is the clincher.  Why on earth would you develop a
schema that is only relevant to dual carriageways?

When there is a schema that can respresent stop lines, signal
locations, and intersection control across all junctions then I'm in.
Until then, trying to vary the current schema in a way that is both
ambigious, and only works for dual carriageways just doesn't fly, IMO.

Re: [talk-au] NSW Alphanumeric routes

2012-11-04 Per discussione Ian Sergeant
Hi,

The timetable for this rollout is from January to December 2013.  So,
if we do this now we could be making changes over a year before the
signs change.

I say, lets just wait for the implementation.  I have faith in OSM to
make the changes within a day of the coverplates being removed, and
then the copyright issues don't come into play either, and navigation
always corresponds to the signs.

I also noticed on the RTA site a while back, they were saying that
they were trying to work with map and data providers to provide timely
and accurate updates.  It certainly may be worthwhile sending them an
email to see if we can take advantage of that, especially if we can
get a timetable for the coverplate removal.

 I was wondering when we should update the route numbers to the new routes.


 Some have already been done, e.g. A41 (Bathurst to Albury via Mid Western
 and Olympic Highways) - the road signs for this went up several years ago
 (although some have since been coverplated).

 I am thinking that some would definitely be OK to do now (e.g. convert NR 32
 (Great Western/Mitchell/Barrier Highways) to A32, as the number is similar)

 I'm not so sure about updating some other routes (e.g. Oxley Highway NR 34
 becomes B56, Snowy Mountains Highway NR 18 becomes B72) - as the numbers are
 different, are these best left until the route number signs change on the
 ground?

 (Also, are we allowed to use the RTA web site as a source for an ODBL
 database like OSM?)

Re: [talk-au] 4WD only tags

2012-11-04 Per discussione David Bannon

Thanks Li, I have not put that proposal up yet, waiting on a response
to a related matter. Soon.

And when I do, I'll not be wanting just your vote, it will be your
input I will really need !

Maybe I should put a draft up on my personal page while we wait ?

 Hi David, although my opinion is that most render's try to simplify
the the stylesheet so the map for ease of comprehension and would not
make use of these additional attributes, I see your point and agree
that it's useful data to have. Since my company focuses on 4WD maps

don't think it would be too hard to divide tracks up into -

* 4x4 recommended - you will might be OK in a conventional car or
(better still) an SUV but you have been warned.

* 4x4 required - you really need a stock 4x4, a real one with (eg) low
ratio.

* 4x4 extreme - this is for the death or glory boys, they need
experience and modified vehicles. This is a recent addition !

I am pretty sure that if you and I spent a couple of weeks having some
driving fun, we'd agree on the vast majority of the tracks we graded.

Subject:4WD only tags

 Hi David, just my 2 cents on 4WD_only tags.

 By adding a 4x4 recommended tag will add to the complexity because
it's kind of subjective as to which roads/tracks are traversable in a
2WD vehicle, therefor adding another option for this key will further
complicate the issue.

I think this is good because no matter
which way you go through the intersection, you only pass one set of lights
(rather than 2 if they were placed on the actual intersecting nodes).


Couldn't a smart traffic light counter detect dual carrageways and just
add a single signal, same as the exit counter does for roundabouts?

Sorry folks, I was having too much fun in Port Macquarie and only got to
map for a short while.

I did some roads near the racecourse although most of these were never
named in OSM before.  On my returm trip I will make a more determined
effort to re-map the rest of Port Macquarie.


I have made a decent start to mapping the Gold Coast and I'll do some more
today hopefully.

2012-11-04 Per discussione Stefan Keller
Hallo

Ich fände es auch schade, wenn diese Liste den Ruf bekäme, gehässig
oder geschwätzig oder beides zu sein...  Anderseits erhält man sicher
genauere Auskunft, wenn man präziser fragt.

Hinter der ursprünglichen Frage von Manfred steckt glaube ich nicht
nur ein Webapplikations-Realisierungs-Problem sondern auch, dass Daten
fehlen und dass geklärt werden muss, ob diese Daten überhaupt in OSM
gehören.

Ich stelle mir einen Bienenliebhaber-Verein vor, mit folgenden
Bedürfnissen: Einerseits möchte er alle seine Mitglieder und deren
Bienenhäuschen auf der Karte verorten, andererseits möchte er
Bienenfreundliche Gegenden anzeigen.  Ersteres ist mit den vielen
Beispielen von OSM-Anwendungen einfach lösbar . Es ist höchstens ein
Geocoding-Problem. Dazu habe ich hier etwas zusammengestellt [1].

Der zweite und eigentliche Anwendungsfall ist etwas komplizierter:
Wenn es Sinn macht, einen bee-friendly Tag anzubringen, dann würde
ich schauen, wie das die Wheelmap-Leute gelöst haben (u.a. mit Ruby).
Wenn man aber zum Schluss kommt, dass die Daten eher nicht in OSM
gehören, so könnte OSM immer noch genutzt werden. Die Beziehung von
OpenStreetMap (OSM) und externen Datenbanken, bzw. weitere
Gemeinschaften (wie diese) interessiert mich. Ich habe hier [3] einige
Verknüpfungsmöglichkeiten aufzuzeigen versucht [3].

rent:shisha=yes (wenn eine Ausleihgebühr erhoben wird) ? Man kann aber
shisha=yes auch durchaus so definieren, dass es bedeutet, dass sie
angeboten werden, ohne dass man an der Bedeutung von z.B. smoking=yes

Software haben ihren Dienst verweigert oder konnten das nicht richtig.
Also bin ich reumuetig zum Shell-Skript und ImageMagick zurueckgekehrt, 
nach einer Stunde war das erledigt.

Ein Foto der Ausdrucke gibt es hier zu sehen:

http://pub.edvbl.dyndns.org/img_4246.jpg

* Das Gebiet, das mich interessiert, ist schwarz umrandet. Es ist nur ein 
Viertel der gesamten Flaeche. Und gleichzeitig sieht man, dass eine 
4-fache Vergroesserung v.a. der Schrift notwendig waere, um 
etwas zu erkennen.
Fotografiert aus Augenhoehe, also ca 2m, das ist wohl auch in etwa die 
Distanz, die z.B. ein Wanderer eine fest installierte Karte dieser Groesse 
betrachten wuerde.


* Druckt man das ganze mit 72DPI (statt 360) aus, passen die Verhaeltnisse 
eigentlich, vielleicht waere das fuer diesen Zweck der praktischere 
Ansatz.


* Zu den Overlays:
Das Hillshading ist natuerlich super-schick, gerade fuer Outdoor Sachen. 
Das koennte ich wohl aber selber hinkriegen, v.a. weil die ja nur bis zu 
einer gewissen Detailstufe Daten liefern. Ist also mehr eine 
Bildverarbeitungssache.


Die HikeBike Routen haette ich schon gerne drin. Ich weiss aber nicht, 
inwieweit sich das in dem Rendering Prozess integrieren laesst. Denkbar 
waere ja evtl, die Daten ueber die Overpass API zu extrahieren. Da koennte 
ich mich mal umsehen.


Danke auf jeden Fall nochmal fuer Deine Bemuehungen, vielleicht kommt ja 
was neues dabei raus!

Du musst die Karte im gewünschten Zoomfaktor nach SVG rendern. Also in dem 
Zoofaktor, in dem dir die Verhältnisse gut gefallen und auch die Schrift gut 
lesbar ist. Dann das SVG auf die gewünschte Größe aufblasen (dank Vektorgrafik 
läuft das dann verlustfrei).


Tipp kam AFAIR damals von Frederik. Ist also nicht von mir.

Ich habe nach dem Schema bereits ein Poster gedruckt. War damals bei einer 
Jubiläumsfeier zentraler Bestandteil einer Fotoausstellung.

Credo che l'unica differenza sia legata a problemi di futuri cambi licenza:
gli import vengono considerati come attività automatiche, simili a quelle
eseguite dai bot. Non avrebbero voce in caso di future ipotetiche modifiche
alla licenza.

Se la mia ipotesi fosse sbagliata, allora non ci sarebbero motivi validi
per aprire un account dedicato.

Viceversa, se la mia ipotesi fosse esatta, allora sarebbe il caso di
lasciar perdere questo progetto e dedicarsi a qualcosaltro.

Non credo che la ragione di account dedicati agli import sia da ricercare
nella gestione degli stessi in casi di futuri (?!) cambi di licenza. O
almeno non solo..

la logica dovrebbe essere nella maggiore facilità di revert o correzioni in
caso di attività pianificate male o al limite del vandalismo.

Ripeto: imho creare un doppio user non é poi un grosso problema, e
francamente non mi dispiace che qualcuno controlli (a campione?) le
attività su editing automatico e massivo che avvengono sulla mappa.

Poi é chiaro che il tono dell'email potrebbe essere un pò più soft, ma
questo é un altro discorso.. :)

Quindi se si dovesse un'altra volta decidere di cambiare la licenza, per 
esempio in PD, nel caso che le condizioni dei dati importati da te non fosseri 
compatibili (per esempio richiedono attribuzione), saranno cancellati anche i 
tuoi contributi originali...

Al meno che non sarai in grado di distinguere i vari changesets.


Quando nel changeset viene messo il tag source (intendo proprio come

semplice distinguerlo dagli altri.

Non vedo perché dovrebbe essere più semplice fare un revert di un 
changeset caricato da un account dedicato; una volta che si sa qual è il 
changeset da rimuovere che sia stato inserito da un utente normale o da 
un account apposito non cambia nulla.
Se invece si tratta di rimuovere in toto i dati derivanti da un 
determinato import allora è sicuramente più semplice la procedura in 
caso di account dedicato. Anche in questo caso però, non sarebbe tanto 
complesso nemmeno recuperare i changeset con un determinato tag source 
caricati dall'account normale (se poi magari sul wiki c'è la lista dei 
changeset si fa ancora prima)...


Nella linee guida per l'import spiegano che l'uso dell'account dedicato 
serve anche per l'attribuzione, dunque 1 account = 1 dataset. Il che 
vuol dire, per esempio, che come minimo qui in Veneto dovremmo avere 3 
account a testa (normale, dati regionali, dati ARPAV), sempre che non 
sia necessario avere account diversi per differenti dataset rilasciati 
dallo stesso ente (in tal caso mi sa che alcuni potrebbero arrivare a 
gestire una dozzina di account, con relativi svariati indirizzi e-mail, 
a meno di aver gmail e poter usare il trucchetto del +).
Che poi quando il lavoro di importazione è distribuito tra vari utenti 
l'associazione più che 1 account = 1 dataset è svariati account = 1 
dataset.


Sempre per quanto riguarda l'attribuzione: sul wiki fanno giustamente 
notare che mettere il tag source sugli oggetti appesantisce il database 
ed in più si corre il rischio che il tag venga rimosso dal nodo, e per 
questo suggeriscono di mettere l'attribuzione sulla pagina dell'account 
dedicato. Forse non hanno pensato che la soluzione migliore è in realtà 
mettere il source sul changeset (svariati utenti = 1 tag source unico 
= 1 dataset)...

ci potrebbe anche stare ma il tag turism presuppone che chi ha un camper 
possa accedere a tale area e sostare, mentre invece l'area è riservata 
alla sosta di un determinato gruppo di persone.

[Talk-it] pulizia sentieri

Buonasera, mi chiamo Pietro e mappo in basso Trentino, zona di Rovereto.
Nella mia zona i sentieri principali sono tutti mappati su OSM.
Mi sto occupando di cercare e mappare sentieri minori. Molto spesso si tratta 
di percorsi che non sono più frequentati, o lo sono molto poco, perché una 
strada permette di raggiungere in automobile la loro destinazione.
In alcuni casi questi sentieri, pur essendo ben visibili, sono parzialmente 
ostruiti dalla vegetazione o da pietre cadute sul loro tracciato e seguirli non 
è del tutto semplice.
Esiste un tag che si possa utilizzare per descrivere questa situazione? In 
alcuni casi ho utilizzato trail_visibility, ma in realtà il sentiero è ben 
riconoscibile, è solo difficile da percorrere a causa degli ostacoli che vi si 
trovano.

secondome non sarebbe male inventarsi qualcosa più specifico, forse
landuse=nomad_camp_site? E' un po' lungo. Anche a me non piace la

credo che non sia previsto al momento. obstacle=works? Lo mettrei solo
in casi dove l'ostacolo è di una certa permanenza, quindi quasi mai.
OSM non è un sistema per segnalare un incidente stradale, e
probabilmente il caso di percorsi che sono meno utilizzabili perchè ci

fuso Ovest) direttamente in Osm (WGS84) sfruttando anche l'utilità cs2cs 
per la riproiezione automatizzata dei punti.
Come tag ho inserito solo addr:housenumber. Il tag addr:street 
preferisco venga inserito a mano così sono sicuro che è giusto e che 
l'elemento è stato validato. I dati attuali risalgono a qualche anno va.

[Talk-gb-westmidlands] Balsall Common armchair mapping cake

2012-11-04 Per discussione Matt Williams
Hi all,

As discussed at the last meetup
(http://blog.mappa-mercia.org/2012/11/november-pub-meeting.html) a few
of us are thinking of doing a little armchair (followed by a survey?)
mapping of Balsall Common, particularly focusing on buildings. I see
that Brian has already started a bit and I've been doing a little
today.

To make sure that we don't have more than one person doing the same
area of the town, I thought I'd put together a cake using MapCraft.
You can view the cake at http://mapcraft.nanodesu.ru/pie/164 and you
can reserve (and mark as in-progress/done) the various slices if you
log in with your OSM account.

I haven't really used MapCraft before but I know the Londoners use it
for their mapping parties so we should see how it goes.

[Talk-se] overlay-verktyg OSM på proprietär karta

2012-11-04 Per discussione Per Eric Rosén
Verktyg för att visa OSM och proprietär karta tycker jag är bra om man ska 
hitta vilka områden som behöver mer uppmärksamhet i OSM (givetvis inte via 
kopiering, utan med undersökning / bing-satelit).


Har hittat flera som visar mapnik+google. Det jag tycker vore bättre är 
att visa, säg, alla OSM-vägar / järnvägar / vattendrag / amenities (allt 
som inte är ytor) i *en* färg uppepå google och utan labels, så syns det 
tydligare var det saknas vägar i OSM.


Har gjord det i QGIS tidigare, men det är opraktiskt att lära andra.
Finns det någon sådan tjänst? Annars sätter jag upp själv, antar jag.

Bueno, la cosa es que esta tarde iba de senderismo en coche por la montaña, y 
encontrando un camino me dije... seguiré mientras haya asfalto. Así que me puse 
a conducir y aparezco en un extraño lugar con una verja y múltiples señales de 
propiedad privada, calle sin salida y demás, la verdad es que daba algo de 
yuyu. En la distancia pude distinguir dos antenas. Para los curiosos, a unos 5 
kilómetros al sureste del pueblecito almeriense de Enix.

Pues bien, cuando vuelvo a casa me puse a indagar y las imágenes de Bing que 
utilizamos están censuradas en esa zona (Es un trozo pequeñito), pero Google 
Maps lo tiene ilustrado sin ningún problema. Internet tiene poquísima 
información, simplemente que es una estación de radio de uso militar. 

Lo primero es: ¿Cómo se marca eso?
Y lo segundo: ¿Cómo de mal está que en España se mapeen las zonas militares? 
Entrecomillo lo de mapear ya que la censura de las imágenes permiten hacer bien 
poquito.

[Talk-ca] CanVec Imports in areas with existing data

2012-11-04 Per discussione Duncan Hill
I've recently imported some CanVec 10 data into the North Bay, Ontario
area. It's been hard to figure out the best way to do this because of the
assorted versions of existing data in the area. After chatting with some
folks in the #osm-ca channel, I left the existing major highways to
preserve routing. Since this is the first time I've imported any CanVec
data, I am wondering if this is the best way to do it when there is
existing data in the area. I would really appreciate it if someone could
take a look at my import in case I have broken something.

The NTS tile that I imported was: 031L06.0.11
The changeset for my import is here:

 Sur le Canal du Midi, Le bief le plus long est de 53,87 km

Re: [OSM-talk-fr] Avocats, médecins, et autres plaques sur les porches

2012/11/3 Francescu GAROBY windu...@gmail.com:
 Bonjour,
 Peut-on tagguer les diverses professions libérales qui ont pour habitude de
 poser une plaque dorée à leur porche ? Je pense que oui, dans la mesure où
 il s'agit d'une profession, et non d'une atteinte à la vie privée, même
 quand le nom apparait sur la plaque, mais je tenais à en être sûr.

Rien n'est moins sûr. Habituellement, on troue dans OSM des adresses,
téléphones associés à un commerce. Ici, on l'associe à une personne.
Un avis de la CNIL serait souhaitable concernant ce point.

 De plus, se pose un problème : comment représenter les X plaques (parfois de
 la même profession. Ex: plusieurs avocats) apposées au même porche. Doit-on
 mettre X points dans le bâtiment ? ça risque d'être surchargé, non ?

Peut-être mais c'est la seule façon de garder un schéma de tags simple
(une activité - un noeud).

Mais jusqu'où peut-on aller dans cette démarche ? Pourquoi ne pas
aller jusqu'à mettre les noms des chefs de service dans les hôpitaux ?

 (re-)Bonjour,
 Je n'arrive pas à trouver comment tagguer les services d'aide à domicile
 (appelés aussi aides à la personne). Je ne parle pas des soins regroupés
 sous le tag 'social_facility', mais de choses moins vitales : devoirs
 scolaires, ménages/repassages, ...
 (Le but étant de tagguer les bureaux d'entreprises offrant ce genre de
 services).

Bureaux = office=*
Si une valeur spécifique n'existe pas, soit tu utilises le
office=yes générique (avec les détails dans name), soit tu trouves
l'équivalent en anglais du service concerné.

Re: [OSM-talk-fr] role de ces tags ?

2012/11/3 Pierre Béland infosbelas-...@yahoo.fr:

 J'importe dans mon GPS des tracés de sentiers y incluant les bornes
 kilométriques.  Ces repères visuels me permettent de voir rapidement ma
 progression sur le sentier. Je sais ainsi que je suis près de tel kilomètre
 ou de tel point de vue ou halte. Je n'ai pas testé, mais je penses bien que
 l'élévation devrait aussi s'afficher si elle était ajoutée.

Les 'ele' relevés par GPS n'ont aucun intérêt dans OSM. Ils sont trop
peu fiables et certains appareils se servent de la pression
atmosphérique. Sans étalonnage avant la balade, ça devient du
n'importe quoi. De plus, il faudrait que toutes les altitudes dans OMS
s'expriment en WGS84, ce qui est loin d'être le cas pour tous les GPS
ou outils de conversion.
Les rares fois où je tombe sur ce genre de noeuds importés par GPS, je
supprime ces tags (voire je remplace le way complètement tant je
déteste les imports directs du GPS).

Pour voir les Rives de l'Orne, c'est par
icihttp://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=49.17825lon=-0.34964zoom=17layers=M.
Bon, il faudra de toute façon repasser, surtout au niveau des Rives de
l'Orne : les aménagement routiers en cours sont finis, mais d'autres
viendront (pont Churchill élargi, route Nord-Sud partant du nouveau
rond-point en bout du pont Stirn, ...) + le chantier des Rives de l'Orne
lui-même : la livraison n'est prévue qu'en 2013, mais quand ça sera fait,
il y aura du boulot pour tout cartographier !

Et pour la place Saint-Sauveur, et ses alentours, c'est par là
!http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=49.182816lon=-0.367731zoom=18layers=MIl
y a quand même un truc qui y manque, mais c'est parce que je ne savais
pas comment le tagguer : sur la place, le long de la rue Pasteur, se trouve
un escalier de quelques marches seulement, mais très large ! La moitié de
la longueur de la place, en gros... Mettre un way n'allait pas le faire :
il n'aurait pas été dans l'axe de l'escalier. Du coup, je ne savais pas
comment le représenter.


Et je réitère ma proposition d'organiser une cartopartie dans Caen (ou les
alentours proches), si ça en intéresse.

 Pour les Rives de L'Orne, c'est en cours : j'ai supprimé les sens uniques

 rond-point au croisement du quai Hamelin, du pont Stirn et du cours
 Montalivet.
 Pour la place Saint-Sauveur, j'attendais que les ouvriers aient
 complètement dégagé la place : les travaux n'ayant été terminés qu'en début
 de semaine (et inauguration le 24/11, pour ceux qui sont dans le coin).
 Dans les 2 cas, je pense que j'aurai fini de tagguer ça d'ici la fin de la

As-tu une meilleure solution pour trouver les altitudes des sommets où
il n'y a pas de point géodésique ?
Étant donné que nous n'avons pas le droit d'utiliser l'altitude indiquée
sur les cartes IGN, je pense qu'on peut mettre l'altitude GPS, qui a une
précision de l'ordre de 20 mètres (à condition qu'elle prenne en compte
la hauteur du géoïde). C'est mieux que rien, en attendant que la
précision des GPS s'améliore (Galileo ?).

Attention Pieren, Tu risques de recevoir une petite note en anglais t'indiquant 
que ton compte est bloqué suite à des destructions sauvages. :)

Blague à part, il y a des marges d'erreur aussi bien avec les données gps 
qu'avec l'imagerie mal calée. Nous essayons d'importer la meilleure 
information  disponible. Puis éventuellement d'autres contributeurs révisent 
avec des infos plus précises.

Je suis d'accord qu'il n'est pas pertinent d'importer dans OSM des données gps 
en y incluant les données d'élévation. Cependant, tes propos laissent 
sous-entendre que toute donnée d'élévation est inutile dans OSM et doit être 
détruite. Veux-tu dire que même pour un sentier de randonnée, il n'est pas 
pertinent d'ajouter des repères ou l'attribut élévation est ajouté?

Mise à jour effectué dans Osmose.
http://osmose.openstreetmap.fr/map/?item=7050,8020,8021level=1,2,3

Ça prend en compte la qualité du géocodage de La Poste et le tag
wheelchair.



Je vais m'occuper de la maj de PlaceMaker, normalement dans la semaine. 
Plusieurs points :
- certains nouveaux descripteurs concernent l'accès pour les 
malentendants (présence de prises casque). Je n'ai pas vu grand chose 
sur le wiki, à part ça :

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DisabilityDescription
approuvé peut-être, mais pas bien populaire pour autant :
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=blind
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=deaf
Sauf autre suggestion, je proposerais quand même qu'on utilise cette 
forme de tag, via par exemple :

deaf:description:fr=Automates d'affranchissement avec prise audio
deaf:description:fr=Distributeur de billets avec prise audio

- sur l'accessibilité en fauteuil, je n'ai pas compris la proposition de 
Frédéric en fin de ce mail :

http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-fr/2012-October/050690.html
Ne faut-il pas lire plutôt : ET SINON wheelchair=no ?

- les horaires d'ouverture (fournis dans un 2e fichier) donnent matière 
à remplir un joli tag opening_hours, mais comme toujours sur ce thème, 
c'est un poème, va falloir s'y pencher (sans tomber).


- @ Christian : pour les bureaux de poste déjà dans OSM, j'espère bien 
que la clé ref:FR:LaPoste fournie par la source va nous permettre de 
répercuter les nouveaux tags (accessibilité, horaires) sans trop de 
gymnastique, via un bot bien intentionné (et un compte dédié :-) ).

[OSM-talk-fr] Eurosha en République Centrafricaine, une premiere evaluation par les tuteurs souhaitee / Eurosha in CAR, hope for a first evaluation by the tutors

2012-11-04 Per discussione Séverin MENARD
(In English Below)

Bonjour,

Pour ceux qui veulent être tuteurs des volontaires
Euroshahttp://hot.openstreetmap.org/projects/eurosha_0, l'équipe
déployée
à Bangui en République Centrafricaine, maintenant installée, et dotée d'une
bonne connexion internet, mais souffrant malheureusement encore de
coupures d’électricité (voir leur dernière note de
bloghttp://eurosha-volunteers-blog.org/2012/11/02/bara-ala-ti-bangui/)
a commencé à mapper via l'imagerie Bing autour de leur maison
(localisée 
icihttp://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=4.37112lon=18.57068zoom=16layers=M)
à l'aide de ce job http://tasks.hotosm.org/job/72 du HOT Tasking Manager
et cela avance bien, comme le montre
Whodidithttp://zverik.osm.rambler.ru/whodidit/?zoom=12lat=4.39928lon=18.55762lay=layers=BTTet
ces deux exports Mapnik à quatre jours d'écart :

https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B_C6dUAEbjPiTTItYWFLU1U3bHc
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B_C6dUAEbjPiWDhoZ3poblBpb1E

Le groupe va commencer le mapping terrain ce lundi.

Pour corriger d'emblée les erreurs sur les dalles réalisées jusqu'ici, une
évaluation et des conseils par les tuteurs OSM serait bienvenue et
particulièrement utile. Pour ceux qui veulent rejoindre le tutorat, c'est à
cette adresse : https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/talk-eurosha-osm

Juste un point méthodologique : pour le mapping humanitaire, pour faciliter
l'utilisation de la donnée OSM pour des analyses SIG, nous avons choisi des
règles strictes en matière de topologie :
- les bâtiments sont des closedways, évidemment, mais leur attributs ne
décrivent que leur structure physique
- les activités qu'ils contiennent sont portées par des nodes. Les clés
shop ou amenity par exemple sont toujours des nodes, dans le but de
faciliter l’échange de données humanitaires en n'ayant qu'un seul type de
topologie
- dans le cas d'un objet complexe comme une école avec plusieurs bâtiments
et une enceinte, l'enceinte est un objet landuse (avec un type de clôture
s'il existe), les bâtiments sont donc décrits physiquement, et les
activités (il peut y avoir des bâtiments techniques, administratifs et bien
sûr ceux qui regroupent des salles de classe) sont des nodes. Un node
principal contenant l'information générale sur l'école (nom, opérateur,
cycles d'éducation, capacité, statut opérationnel...) sera placé au centre
du landuse

Le preset utilisé est accessible depuis le job pour ceux intéressés, dans
l'onglet workflow.

Encore une fois, merci beaucoup pour le support à ce projet qui bénéficiera
aux pays hôtes !

Hi,

For those that agreed to be OSM tutors of the
Euroshahttp://hot.openstreetmap.org/projects/eurosha_0 volunteers,
the team deployed in Bangui, Central African Republic, is now installed and
has a strong connection to the Internet, but still endures some power
shortages (see their last blog
posthttp://eurosha-volunteers-blog.org/2012/11/02/bara-ala-ti-bangui/)
has started mapping through the Bing imagery in the outskirts of their
house (located 
herehttp://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=4.37112lon=18.57068zoom=16layers=M),
with the support of this Tasking manager jobhttp://tasks.hotosm.org/job/72.
They are moving forward quite well, as shown on
Whodidithttp://zverik.osm.rambler.ru/whodidit/?zoom=12lat=4.39928lon=18.55762lay=layers=BTT
and
these two Mapnik exports taken between a four days interval:

https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B_C6dUAEbjPiTTItYWFLU1U3bHc
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B_C6dUAEbjPiWDhoZ3poblBpb1E

The team will start the field mapping this Monday.

An evaluation and advices to the volunteers by the OSM tutors of the TM
grid cells done so far would be really useful and supportive in order to
correct quickly the mistakes made. For those who would like to become
tutors, please join https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/talk-eurosha-osm


Just some methodological elements: for the purposes of the humanitarian
mapping, in order to get easy the GIS analysis based on this baseline data,
we defined these topological rules:
- buildings are obviously closedways, with attributes only describing their
physical features
- the activities they hold are described by nodes. The shop or amenity
keys, for example, are always put only on nodes, in order to make the
exchange of humanitarian data easier, by having only one type of topology
by tags  and category of information
- in the event of a complex object as a school with several buildings and a
enclosure, this latter is a landuse object (with a tag describing the kind
of surrounding walls if there is some), the buildings described for their
structure and the activities (eg plant room, warehouse, offices and of
course buildings hosting classrooms) are nodes. A main node containing the
general invigoration for the school (name, operator, series, capacity,
operational status,..) will be located in the middle of the enclosure.

The preset that is used can be accessed from the TM 

Re: [Talk-GB] Addition of Wikipedia links in German!

2012-11-04 Per discussione Colin Smale

WARNING: CHECK YOUR BOUNDARIES!

Longbow4u has been causing other problems with these edits as well. In 
Kent the boundaries of Ashford and Shepway districts have been emptied 
of ways. The addition of wikipedia links is continuing apace, sometimes 
in English, sometimes in German.


This changeset seems particularly problematic:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/13577241

I have sent him/her a message requesting them to repair the damage to 
these boundary relations and have suggested rolling back that whole 
changeset might be a good place to start.

One can't help but wonder what the point of such tags are (an indeed website),

This sort of automatic search linking would be much web 2.0, than the pile of

Re: [Talk-GB] Office of National Statistics data

 The UK Office for National Statistics has released some data [1] under the
 Open Government licence [2] . I've extracted the postcode data from it and

 including using the tiles layers in Potlatch 2  JOSM.

 http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/guide-method/geography/products/postcode-directories/-nspp-/index.html
 [2] http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/doc/open-government-licence/

While [1] says ONS Intellectual Property in the postcode products is
supplied under Open Government Licence terms that only refers to
ONS's IP rights, and doesn't say anything about anyone else's IP
rights...

If we follow the licenses link to [3] we find why there is this
strange wording:

Postcode products: The ONS postcode directories are subject to the
Open Government Licence, and Ordnance Survey OpenData Licence.

So it's not correct to say that the data has been released under the
Open Government License. Unfortunately, it looks like we're back to
the same problem we had with CodePoint Open: The ONS dataset
presumably contains IP from Royal Mail under the OS OpenData License.
When LWG enquired a while ago, the answer came back that we weren't
allowed to use CodePoint Open under the OS OpenData License, because
we hadn't got permission from Royal Mail. I don't see that this new
dataset is going to be any different. But if you think there's a case
to be made for being able to use it this time, I think you'll need to
run it by LWG first and get their approval.

Sorry to have to throw a spanner in the works here,

Robert.

Hi Robert,

The odd statement on ONS's website seems to be more related to the Northern
Ireland part of the dataset. If you see the full statement on the licenses
page then it states clearly that the data is available under OGL (see
below). The same statement is also made in the download file itself.

On a related note, we now have the support of the Open Data User Group
(ODUG), who have issued a paper calling for the release of address data as
open data. As you may or may not recall, ODUG reports in to the Cabinet
Office and is responsible for identify public sector datasets that should
be made openly available.

Rob

I haven't had a reply to my own request re the NSG and NLPG stuff, but 
presumably there were a substantial number of requests for the same data!

 Right. So what do you think of the set of rules that I posted a bit ago?

 Well... I like mine better. ('natch!) Pursue the truth  agreement  do

It seems that, if followed, rules 3-5 will almost certainly create more
confusion than they resolve.

There *is* standardization -- the set of Key and Tag descriptions in
 the Wiki. Everybody should edit the way they describe. If they are
 ambiguous, then you should look at the way people are using the tags,
 and put that into the wiki. If people aren't tagging consistently,
 then you should ask for help.

 The whole point is that everything in the database should have a clear
 meaning. It's okay if there are two different ways to enter the same
 thing. Yes, that makes life harder on data consumers, but as long as
 they can understand what a tag means, they can figure out what that
 means for their usage of the map. Chances are good that
 highway=path/bicycle=yes and highway=cycleway will get rendered the
 same way.


I can vouch only for my own perspective, which is that there does not
appear (to me) that everything has clear meaning and that there are many
flavors of standardization. The fact that there are 2 (or more) different
ways to enter the same thing makes meaning less, not more, clear. I do
think this deserves its own thread  will create such a thread (assuming
it's not a retread rethread), but not tonight.

[Talk-us] Whole-US Garmin Map update - 2012-11-02

2012-11-04 Per discussione Dave Hansen
These are based off of Lambertus's work here:

http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl

If you have questions or comments about these maps, please feel
free to ask.  However, please do not send me private mail.  The
odds are, someone else will have the same questions, and by
asking on the talk-us@ list, others can benefit.

FAQ



Why did you do this?

I wrote scripts to joined them myself to lessen the impact
of doing a large join on Lambertus's server.  I've also
cut them in large longitude swaths that should fit conveniently
on removable media.  

http://daveh.dev.openstreetmap.org/garmin/Lambertus/2012-11-02

Can or should I seed the torrents?

Yes!!  If you use the .torrent files, please seed.  That web
server is in the UK, and it helps to have some peers on this
side of the Atlantic.

Why is my map missing small rectangular areas?

There have been some missing tiles from Lambertus's map (the
red rectangles),  I don't see any at the moment, so you may
want to update if you had issues with the last set.

Why can I not copy the large files to my new SD card?

If you buy a new card (especially SDHC), some are FAT16 from
the factory.  I had to reformat it to let me create a 2GB
file.

Does your map cover Mexico/Canada?

Yes!!  I have, for the purposes of this map, annexed Ontario
in to the USA.  Some areas of North America that are close
to the US also just happen to get pulled in to these maps.
This might not happen forever, and if you would like your
non-US area to get included, let me know.

People like simple rules because they're simple. But when you go to
figure out what the rules mean, you have to interpret them. What is
agreement? Agreement with you and your buddies as to how to tag?
Agreement with existing tags? Agrement with the documentation in the
wiki? Agreement with some book that somebody wrote once? Agreement
with Steve Coast (all hail the master)?

If you don't start with good rules, you'll have to invent them, under
pressure and with people yelling at you. Which is kinda what we're
doing here, now.

 Agreement should mean among all relevant parties.

That said, I think the key is more in the pursue than the specific
agreement.

If you're *pursuing* agreement... then you're doing all the things you've
mentioned... checking the wiki, checking with others, checking IRC,
documenting what you're doing so that people can understand why you did
what you did, entering into an agreement with the willingness to accept
that your way may not be the way that the community accepts. And, in those
cases, you're still free to make your own tags, etc., just don't harm other
peoples' (and the community's) efforts. The other positive attribute of
pursuing agreement is that it mitigates a bully's ability to use pursuit of
the truth as a cudgel for braining other mappers.

Other things about the rules you've suggested - if the first rule involves
the acronym DWG, then we're probably off to the wrong start. It implies
that you need to be ready to escalate to the highest levels, rather than
seeking more distributed and federated agreement. The second rule is too
specific - what about disputes between 2 local mappers or between 2 remote
mappers?

I do agree, however, that sometimes, inventing rules under pressure can be
the way to go. I do hope we can do it without yelling! (whoops) : )

Re: [Talk-us] What to do with unnamed NHD streams

2012-11-04 Per discussione James Umbanhowar
On Sun, 2012-10-28 at 20:51 -0700, Paul Norman wrote: 
 Background: I'm working on converting NHD to .osm format
 
 NHD is an extremely large data set. It's about 25G of zipfiles and all of
 this converted to .osm would total about 3 TB. This is about 10x-15x times
 the size of planet.osm.
 
 There are three factors that lead to this large size. The third is what this
 email is about
 
 1. The NHD covers a massive area. 
 
 2. Some ways are very over-noded. The NHD accuracy standard is 12m error
 90% of the time. Running a 1m simplify in JOSM reduces the number of nodes
 to 25%-50% of what it was before. Like everything with the NHD, this varies
 from region to region. I'm thinking a 2.5m simplification would be best -
 it's 1/5th of the accuracy standard. Of course, running a simplification on
 a dataset this large is a challenge in itself.
 

Yes to this.

 3. A lot of NHD is very minor streams only of use to hydrologists. There
 are streams that you would be hard pressed to locate if you were there in
 person and in some cases they do not exist anymore.
 
 A sensible solution in any NHD translation may be to drop any FCode 46003
 (intermittent) streams without a name. It may also be worth dropping FCode
 46006 (perennial) streams without a name.

I think that excluding 46003's is generally O.K. They can be useful, but
are not really necessary for the import.  I do think that not including
46006's without names would exclude many important and obvious
waterways.  Here in NC, some of these actually do have (local) names and
many are significant especially for hiking/biking trails as they
represent places where feet can get wet or there is a big dip/rocky
area.  My vote would be to keep them.
