[OSM-ja] 市中免税店のタグ付けについて

2017-10-28 Per discussione Mariko HISAKAWA/GODA
 秋葉原〜上野あたりで活動しいる、ごうだまりぽ (id:maripogoda) と申します。
観光地でマッピングしているとよく見かける市中免税店を上手くタグ付けしたいので、
ちょっと相談させてください。

さきほどTwitterでも呟いてmuramotoさんからお返事を頂きました。
https://twitter.com/muramototomoya/status/924482493142540289
(空港などにあるDuty-freeではなく)Tax-freeと呼ばれる消費税免税店は日本の消費税法の
特有のシステムのようです。
taginfoでもduty_freeやtax_freeのようなそれっぽいタグの使用事例はなさそうです。

(参考)
https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%85%8D%E7%A8%8E%E5%BA%97


私のイメージでは

「一般の家電店に免税カウンタがある」
→ shop=electronics, tax_free=yes

「外国人観光客向けの化粧品店で、パスポートを持っている人以外お断り」
→ shop=cosmetics, tax_free=only

「酒屋で、消費税免除 (tax-free) と酒税・関税免除 (duty-free) に対応している」
→ shop=alcohol, tax_free=yes, duty_free=yes

という感じでタグ付けできたらいいなと思うのですが、如何でしょうか。

There are secondary or sub tags such as 'name' that add details.


I agree 'landuse' /is/ primary' but the 'forest' value is being

they're managed, their size & density.






The 'landuse' tag when combined with forest is a misuse of a primary

The landuse=forest will not always have trees on it. From time to time 
they may be harvested and result in no trees.


That has nothing to do with my point.





In this case, whether it's managed or not. Actually, it's use is even 
more confusing with people using it to describe the size of the area 
& density of trees, which, again, should be described with sub-tags.


The density of trees in a forestry area may change over time, Usually 
these areas are, when first planted, fairly dense in the number of 
plants then they are thinned as the trees grow to select the better 
trees to reach maturity.


Again, irrelevant to the clear stated problem.

I'm generally disinclined to say yes on this, by virtue of having a
Wikipedia background.  I wrote paragraphs on the March 8, 2005 Loowit
eruption, but today, I'd be hard stretched to find any remnant of my March
9th, 2005 edit regarding the same eruption

Meritocracy.  And I've personally struggled with this, especially with what
is more or less the smear of trunks in North America, and my well
publicised opinion of what should qualify for trunk on my continent.

Lesser so on the slow simmering edit battle for the name=* tag.  Kinda feel
like things like name=British Columbia Highway 99 shouldn't have a name=*
value at all, in favor of ref=BC 99 (currently mapped as the name tag above
and ref=99 as of last check).  This is even internally confusing as the
Transcanada Highway values for 1 and 16 are not identified as BC highways,
but as TCH highways.  So I'd be inclined as mapping the former as ref=BC 99
without a name, and 1 and 16 as ref=CA 1 and ref=CA 16 with name=* values
reflecting their proper names, not their highway numbers. Sask suffers
similar issues, what with the Sask Trunk and Sask Provincial highways (75
automatically comes to mind thanks to Emerson; but maybe they have a Texas
thing going on with a multitude of state highway systems of differing
priority).  I get that the (relatively informal) Transcanada Highway system
is closest to the US Highway System and what provincial highways are and
that there's literally no Interstate equivalent in Canada or Mexico.  But
having the entire continent on a coherent understanding would be
appreciated.

For someone not familiar, what seems to be the problem?  This is apparently
unrelated to Weekly OSM, which you replied, so I'm seriously confused here.

Granted, we can all be hard to work with from time to time (and I'm going
to include myself intentionally given that some of my interactions have
infamously gone to the DWG and attempting to bicycle and lane detail map
everything tertiary and higher in Portland and Oklahoma has been
occasionally been met with less than constructive criticism in regards to
relatively minor ways that some people prefer for themselves).

Re: [Talk-dk] Busstoppesteder

2017-10-28 Per discussione Michael Andersen
Som på alle andre områder i OSM forekommer der misforståelser og da der hidtil 
ikke har været nogen videre organiseret indsats i forhold til busstoppesteder 
kan vi ikke forvente at der er nogen konsistens hvordan de er lavet.

Ifølge https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dbus_stop#Bus_stop 
skal stoppestederne placeres der hvor man venter/står på bussen. Dvs på den 
side af vejen hvor busskur eller lign befinder sig.

Hvis du støder på nogle der ikke helt følger den retningslinie, er du 
velkommen til at rette dem.

I don't really agree with this, but for the purpose of my main

I don't bother  adding the landcover to landuse=forest as it changes and

To me the landcover is secondary to the landuse tag in forestry areas as 
one is fairly permanent while the other changes over time.

Re: [OSM-talk] weeklyOSM #379 2017-10-17-2017-10-23

2017-10-28 Per discussione Ilya Zverev
To clarify, I'm on Verdy's side regarding the calendar dispute (not that I 
follow it closely). Third-party developers should improve their wiki parsers, 
not impose restrictions on pages.

But I don't like the introduction of microformats to the calendar template, 
which he made. It made reading and updating the template source harder. See the 
example and discussion:

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Template_talk:Calendar#What_happened_to_the_template.3F.21

I find it strange that one month Verdy makes the template harder to use for the 
sake of some software, and the next he's complaining because other people do 
the same.

Also, many of his changes are actually good. But the number of edits is so 
high, nobody will verify all of these. This is similar to imports to OSM: 
potentially good, but hard to assess. Imports and automatic edits should be 
discussed — so why not mass wiki edits?

Finally, Verdy has edited so many pages on tagging, he's probably considering 
himself an expert on tagging. And he is appearing in proposal discussions, 
enforcing the "librarian" point of view: that accepted proposals are set in 
stone, that wiki supersedes actual mapping practices. That just looks weird and 
sidetracks discussions.

I've read many, many screeds written by him over the last couple of 
years, but they all come across as "never mind the quality, feel the 
width".  The text that Marcos Oliveira quoted further down the thread is 
pretty typical; you could easily refute all of points raised one by one 
("I've fixed them as soon as they were discovered", "I've been very 
tolerant", "But seriously, if I ever made some temporary real mistake, 
did I ever refuse to correct it? " etc.), but it'd be a waste of time; 
communication simply would not occur - what he's written is just 
self-deluding garbage.  There are many, many times when he's been told 
that his understanding of a particular issue doesn't match people who 
are familiar with it in the real world; but he seems to lack the skills 
to process that information.



...

I understand we can all be difficult to work with at times, and
sometimes some of us are hard to work with all the times.

Verdy, I urge you to slow down on the wiki editing,


That approach has been tried a number of times (including as I 
understand it temporary bans from editing the wiki in the past).  It 
didn't work; that ship's sailed.  The only thing that will work now is a 
permanent ban.



...

And I urge us to keep trying to find a way to understand verdy's wiki
work and work with Verdy on the wiki. He seems to be making real,
important, needed improvements that will make the wiki much better in
the long term.


I see no evidence of this.  The only edits I see (such as introducing 
unnecessary layers of categories) are harmful to the documentation of 
the OSM project as a whole.



My impression is that much of verdy's improvements are just difficult
to understand for non wikimedia experts, difficult to explain because
they are complicated.


If that's the case, then he's doing it wrong.  Let's take a simple 
example - https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Derbyshire is supposed to 
be useful to local mappers and it should be easy to navigate to 
neighbouring counties.  Unfortunately it isn't due to the categorisation 
of English counties and the complete dogs breakfast that is 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Counties_in_England=history 
(primary editor Verdy p ).



...

Verdy, I really wish it was easier to understand what you were doing
and it was easier to explain,


Clearly, if it isn't possible to understand what he's doing, then he's 
not doing a good job, surely?  Currently he's at 69 "contributions" so 
far today, and they all seem entirely unrelated to documenting OSM as a 
project.


I offered to intervene in the dispute involving the WeeklyOSM calendar; 
but someone else had already been given the "mediator" job of trying to 
sort things out.  I wish them all the best, but if it doesn't work out 
then I think a permanent ban is the only option.


Let's not forget what the wiki is for - it's supposed to document OSM; 
to serve mappers.  If it fails to do that - e.g. if people like Blake 
fail to understand why edits are made - then it's failed.

Problem: How to shrink the area of a  geojson image by a set percentage.

Solution: Use QGIS (I used v.2.18.13)


Run QGIS
go to PLUGINS, manage and install plugins
Select: Buffer by percentage, install plugin


Drag and drop the geojson file into the layers panel

Activate the Buffer by percentage plugin
Set Buffer area percentage, say 80 and OK


Right click on result line in Layers panel and Save As
In ‘Save vector layer as’ window, insert file name
Select Browse to set destination and Save
Select OK


Job done.


Thank you guys.

I was understanding do-o-cracy as a political philosophy here where 
influence and power of individuals is based on how much they do.

And i tried to explain that if you'd apply this to the OSM wiki in 
isolation it would not be able to fulfill its function in OSM in the 
long term any more.  For that influence and power of people on the wiki 
needs to be influenced by how beneficial their work is for OSM as a 
whole.  I am not claiming this is easy to determine but it should be 
the benchmark to apply - which is what i am suggesting everyone to do 
here.

This is a really hard subject to tackle. Everyone prefer to have their own
idea/ways validated by others. It is always hard to be corrected, or having
its work replaced by an equally valid work.
The underlying questions I believe are how much one's work should be
immutable ? Can someone "claim ownership" of a wiki page for example by
being the first to write it, or being the most close geographically to the
feature described ?

I do think that one shouldn't expect to have their ideas/work unchallenged
and untouched on OSM. As it is a public work, and
contributors/contributions are expected to be equal, the only way of
expressing their opinion is by contributing in content or discussion. If
you do neither, or fail to provide valid objections to subsequent
modifications, why would one's previous contribution prevail over later
work ?

That's what I meant by do-o-cracy, and I think it applies all the same to
the wiki, which really is a part of the OSM project.

A quick note - since i think it is important to make this distinction:

Mapping in OSM is based on do-o-cratic principles, always subject to the 
basic principles of mapping we have of course 
(https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/How_We_Map).

But the OSM wiki as a meta-project for documenting and communicating 
about mapping is not a do-o-cracy on its own.  You cannot simply invest 
a lot of time in the wiki and expect your ideas about how things are 
supposed to be there to supersede those of others, especially those who 
might not spend so much time on the wiki but on other OSM related 
things and who rightfully expect to be able to use the wiki for those 
activities.  The wiki is a means to facilitate better mapping and 
social interaction between mappers, not a platform to express yourself 
independent of that.

This is not meant to put blame on anyone here but i would suggest 
everyone to evaluate things under the question if what the different 
people desire and argue for has a clear benefit for OSM and the OSM 
community beyond the wiki itself.

Tracey, would you be willing to look into room availability for Friday, Nov

John, I know that students can access Wi-Fi through their student accounts. 
They should have a guest access as well.

Re: [Talk-it] Manutentori attrezzature antincendio

2017-10-28 Per discussione Aury88
credo che più che riparazione si intenda il servizio di sorveglianza
controllo e revisione a cui tutti i presidi antincendio vanno sottoposti
periodicamente. più un maintenance che una riparazione quindi, ma mi piace
lo schema di quella proposta.

non capisco solo una cosa...con quei tag si intende anche che vengono
venduti quelle tipologie di oggetti o è solo riparazione?

I would like to have this during OSM Geoweek, but that week is approaching

at the Royal Canadian Geographic Society where I believe Statistics Canada will 
be giving a presentation on their OSM project 
(https://twitter.com/CarletonDGES/status/920993927934574592).

I am very familiar with the Carleton campus, so Loeb building could be an 
option since it is the location of the Geography department. Tracey, I hear 
that Richcraft Hall is the nicest building on campus though.  If anybody else 
is familiar with Carleton’s campus I’m open to location ideas.

Without regard to the (objective?) quality of his work, you convey that he
is to blame because of his important implication to the project ?
AFAIK he does not circumveit moderating processes, and not using
"automated" tools. OSM is a do-o-cracy; blaming people (especially people
investing a lot of time) for their implication is not the way to go.

Un noeud highway=traffic_signals est :
- soit unique au carrefour entre plusieurs way:  il indique qu'il y a un
feu à ce carrefour, sans plus de détail et c'est déjà pas mal.
- soit sur un des way qui arrive au carrefour
- jamais seul en dehors d'un way

Dans le second cas, si la rue n'est pas en sens unique, on peut indiquer
dans quel sens le feu s'applique si il ne s'applique que dans un sens. Le
sens est celui du way qui le porte, forward quand il régule le traffic dans
le sens du way, backward quand il régule le traffic dans le sens inverse du

2017-10-28 Per discussione Blake Girardot
Greetings,

As someone who has worked with Verdy P on a daily basis over the past
few months, I find his wiki editing and organizing to be very good. He
knows what he is doing. He is probably a top expert in wikimedia
editing and organization, especially as it relates to the
translateability of our wiki content, making it much more
translateable. A very noble and critical goal.

Please read his personal page on the wiki to understand his overall
goal and why to achieve it he has made a lot (like thousands) of
edits: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Verdy_p

I understand we can all be difficult to work with at times, and
sometimes some of us are hard to work with all the times.

Verdy, I urge you to slow down on the wiki editing, listen to the
advice and issues others are raising about your edits and interactions
and let everyone catch up and understand your editing and organization
improvements. You can be really hard to keep up with :) This is the
same advice I put on your personal wiki talk page last year :)

And I urge us to keep trying to find a way to understand verdy's wiki
work and work with Verdy on the wiki. He seems to be making real,
important, needed improvements that will make the wiki much better in
the long term.

My impression is that much of verdy's improvements are just difficult
to understand for non wikimedia experts, difficult to explain because
they are complicated. And add in the fact that English is not verdy's
native language, the challenge of explaining highly technical
wikimedia organization techniques is twice as difficult.

I am no wiki expert so I can only look at from a user's perspective.

He blasted through a bunch of HOT related wiki pages and I was mad he
made a lot of changes I did not understand. I think I complained once
and got blown off. Now that I better understand his underlying goal,
translateability, and I see that his changes have not really affected
anything from my user perspective, I am fine with his changes. I am ok
with the fact that he does know a lot more about it than I do, and I
trust his work to be improvements as I have seen it first hand as it
relates to translations of wiki pages.

Verdy, I really wish it was easier to understand what you were doing
and it was easier to explain, I really hope you can slow down and
focus on bringing everyone else who is concerned about your edits to
an understanding of your methods and reasons as I will really be sad
and you get banned from the wiki and in the long term OSM Wiki will be
worse off without you contributing your expertise to it.

Respectfully,
Blake

Una questione, direi formale, che salta fuori dopo ben 6 anni di presenza

Cavolo! se erano così problematici in tutto questo tempo dovevano già
essere stati discussi e rimossi!

Io trovo che ci sono un sacco elementi da aggiustare o territori ancora da
mappare su cui potremmo orientare i nostri sforzi

Personalmente sono per lasciarli questi nodi. Volete un motivo ? per
usucapione. :) E poi chi ci dice che non ci sia qualcuno che li sta usando
da tempo in modo proficuo per qualche sua applicazione ?

Je me suis mal exprimé. de ce que j'en comprend :
cas 1 : un feu mis sur le nœud aux croisements des routes : aucun tag 
direction, il s'applique dans toutes les directions (plus rapide a tager 
mais on n'a pas l'info de où s'arrêter). je n'ai cependant jamais vu 
cette façon "light" ailleurs que sur le wiki.
cas 2 : un feu mis ailleurs qu'au nœud de croisement : il faut toujours 
un tag direction pour dire dans quel sens il s'applique (plus précis 
puisqu'on peux le mettre à l'endroit de la ligne d'arrêt)

Si tu parles d'avoir préfixer le tag direction avec le namespace,
oui je ne vois pas l'intérêt
Si tu parles d'une autre contradiction, je n'ai pas compris.

Je ne comprend d'ailleurs pas la section qui parle du cas où le feu est

Verdy p is very hard to work with on the wiki, and his number of edits makes

J'ai bien l'impression que le tag direction=* a un rapport avec la
présence du nœud sur un chemin.
À moins que la page wiki anglaise donne une information erronée, ou que
le système est différent en France, il faudra dans ces cas l’éditer.

S’il n'y a pas d'erreur sur le wiki, alors je persiste à écrire qu'il y
a une contradiction par rapport aux stops.

Je ne sais pas si François a compris ce que j’essaie d'expliquer, mais
ses interventions vont dans mon sens indirectement.

A 'natural' tree grown from a seed that comes off a tree by natural

I don't really agree with this, but for the purpose of my main argument: 
'Unifying the key tag for groups of trees'; 'natural' is interchangeable 
with your preferred 'landcover'. What key used is arguable, but, 
whichever, there should only be *one*.

Umm  so you would remove landuse? landuse=residential would be a 
subtag .. under what?


Maybe 'purposes' was a bit confusing, I see landuse=residential as a 
primary tag. Sub-tags are 'descriptive', 'adjective'. The 'cuisine' of a 
restaurant, or 'managed' for woods. for example.


The 'landuse' tag when combined with forest is a misuse of a primary tag 
as it's being used as an adjective.


In this case, whether it's managed or not. Actually, it's use is even 
more confusing with people using it to describe the size of the area & 
density of trees, which, again, should be described with sub-tags.

OSM tagging comes AFTER that.

As I map & tag what I see in reality; could you expand on what you mean by
"virtual hierarchy"?

   When you create a map (not a GIS database), you start with hierarchy
of objects which you're going to display. After that you specify what
exactly each of those items in the hierarchy is in your datasets.


You've put the cart before the carthorse.

Entities are mapped & tagged into a database. Individual renderers 
*then* decide which objects to include & how they appear.


I believe your points are irrelevant to unifying the key tag used to 
describe groups of trees.

rue associée : seules la rue et les point d'adresses y figurent, ce qui 
oblige à dupliquer le nom de rue.

I agree absolutely. Time to ban verdy_p for continually disruptive behaviour
and an unwillingness to work with the community.

Re: [OSM-talk] weeklyOSM #379 2017-10-17-2017-10-23

2017-10-28 Per discussione Andrew Hain
It is now time to talk about banning Verdy p from the wiki permanently.

His behaviour over the past years makes him a contributor of net negative value.

It is exceptionally difficult to correct any mistake that he makes and as a 
result people have cut down their contributions to the wiki or given up 
completely.

He likes to tell people that they have made mistakes without trying to teach 
them what he thinks they did wrong and obfuscates changes with mass 
reformatting. It is often unclear whether he is addressing a problem that 
actually exists.

He often projects his own personality deficiencies onto other people.

Even in the current case where there is software that could be made more 
flexible, he only offers handwaving rather than assistance.

  While I agree with you on a theoretical level, I cannot come up with
any example of different order depending on "renderer" when we talk
about BASEMAPS (as opposed to thematic maps). Can you help me and give
an example?

P.S. Roads (or other objects) depicted wider/larger than they really
are for visibility overlapping building polygons is not enough,
because the problem here is that something is exaggerated on purpose.

Re: [OSM-talk] Topology rules

  What exactly are we missing on this polygon topic?

  Because currently OSM data is in a non GIS database (no geometry
column). So there are no geometry types as such, just building blocks
which are later used by software like osm2pgsql which creates a GIS
database and geometry column. So polygon type would not be a "topology
rule", as topology rules can only (?) be applied to geometries.

  The only thing I could think of is having a pre-geometry rules of
following types:
  1. If way has landuse tag, it should be closed
  2. If relation has landuse tag, its ways should form a (multi-)polygon
  3. Node cannot have a landuse tag
  This is for landuse only, but the same type of rules could be
written for other tags like building etc.

  Then there are two tasks:
  * Fix currently incorrect data
  * Introduce these rules to editors and/or api so that new errors
could not be introduced.
  (does not necessarily has to be done in listed order)

  And actually second point can already be done now. JOSM does
complain about unclosed polygons, but it does allow saving them anyway
and check does not work on partially downloaded multipolygons (logical
thing as this could be a multipolygon of a vry large/complec
country border). Maybe editors could start introducing some simple but
mandatory checks, for example not allowing saving of non closed ways
with building=*?

Re: [Talk-de] Garmin gmapsupp.img funktioniert nicht mehr mit qlandkartegt / qmapshack

2017-10-28 Per discussione Moritz

Hallo Andreas,




http://fam-tille.de/tmp/osm/gmapsupp.img

(Bitte gib mir kurz Bescheid, wenn Du es heruntergeladen hast - der 
Server

hat nicht mehr so sehr viel Platz ...)


Karte habe ich runtergeladen und mit Qmapshack 1.9.1 (Manjaro/Arch) 
lässt sie sich einbinden und anzeigen.
Scheint also ein Problem mit deiner Qmapshack/Qlandlandkarte 
INstallation zu sein.


Btw. ich nutze da ein Script[1] um einfach aus den openmtbmap*.exe files 
ein img file zu bauen.
Letzendlich nutzt es auch nur gmt oder mkgmap aber man spart sich das 
entpacken usw.


Grüße
Moritz

Re: [Talk-it] Mappatura di oggetti "virtuali"

2017-10-28 Per discussione dgitto
Da pilota di linea virtuale, e cioè utilizzatore e mappatore di quei dati,
penso che ci dovremmo astenere dal mappare e mantenere i waypoint. 
I dati ufficiali sono pubblici, gratuiti. Sarebbero ben fruibili se ci fosse
un progetto come openaerialmap. Ma se è cessato di potrà ricreare qualcosa
del genere, piuttosto che usare OSM. Se mettiamo i wp poi il passo ovvio
sono le aerovie, tutti i dettagli di queste e le restrizioni, boundaries,
SID, STAR, e tutto il resto.
Per me le linee dei traghetti tra un porto e l'altro sono state sempre una
giusta anzi tollerata "eccezione alla regola".
