Yes, Wikipedia mobile app uses Leaflet and PhoneGap. PhoneGap
addresses fragmented mobile OSes for mobile devices.

Google is funny. It is blocking Openlayers apps that uses Google Maps
as data source. It pops up a modal dialog - Map Data. I observed it
in my mobile prototype apps lately.

Moving away from Openlayers and Google Maps and I am using Leaflet now
with jQTouch + a bit of PhoneGap. However, QuickConnect is superior

 Hi everyone,

 The Wikimedia Foundation has just released new versions of their

 they have switched to using OpenStreetMap (using the MapQuest Open

 in the future) instead of Google Maps. Blog post here:
 http://blog.wikimedia.org/2012/04/05/new-wikipedia-app-for-ios-and-an-update-for-our-android-app/

 This switch is not for economic reasons (since Google currently does
 not charge app developers for Google Maps for mobile), but for
 idealogical reasons (Wikipedia is about open data/knowledge after
 all), and also since the map feature can now be viewed on more Android
 phones especially those that do not have Google Maps Mobile built in.

 2012 is looking to be the year of OpenStreetMap. :)

 PhoneGap was acquired by Adobe, so it means that PhoneGap must be that

 Not sure if it was missing the step of putting my username in the setup

 postgresql to remove and reinstall properly, there's no way I can tell. I'm
 thinking it will be quicker to reinstall the OS fresh and start from there.
 Sigh. Wish I'd done it in a VM now ...

I think osm2pgsql ReadMe would be helpful to make PostgreSQL / PostGIS working.

https://github.com/openstreetmap/osm2pgsql

These script will be probably useful to make it working.


$ sudo -u postgres psql -d dbname -c ALTER TABLE geometry_columns
OWNER TO username
$ sudo -u postgres psql -d dbname -c ALTER TABLE spatial_ref_sys
OWNER TO username

The 900913 is not normally included with postgis. To add it you
should run:

$ sudo -u postgres psql -d dbname -f 900913.sql

If you want to use hstore support then you will also need to enable
the PostgreSQL
hstore-new extension.

$ sudo -u postgres psql dbname  /usr/share/postgresql/8.4/contrib/hstore.sql

Wow. 5 steps to setup tileserver in Ubuntu.

I took me last Saturday and Sunday just to setup PostGIS and move OSM

Postgresql and PostGIS are not so good in Mac OS X at the moment,
problem in finding the postgresql database data.

If you want a different theme you can use this osm-hybrid-carto for TileMill.

OSM-Ph can probably sell services to local governments (towns and
barangays) in creating custom maps (digital and hardcopy). It is good
fund raising.

 Subject: [OSM-talk] Installing your own tileserver on Ubuntu
 To: t...@openstreetmap.org


 Hello everyone,

 with the recent need to crack down on tile scrapers and apps to not over
 tax the main OSM tileservers and hosting, there has been a lot of talk
 trying to convince people to set up their own tileserver.

 Although that is of cause by far not the only hurdle to set up your own
 tileserver, one barrier is perhaps the perceived complicated procedure
 to set up all the elements necessary. Although there are a number of
 decent howtos already available on the wiki (perhaps even to many, each
 containing slightly different advice...), it is perhaps still more
 effort than people want to get into.

 In the hope to make this process even simpler, I have created a bunch of
 packages for Ubuntu containing all the necessary software, as well as
 glue packages to deal with the necessary setup and interaction between
 the different components.

 The packages aren't perfect yet, but hopefully sufficiently helpful
 already to be of use to others who are interested in playing around with
 their own tileserver.

 A simple standard tileserver can now be setup in 5 commands in a terminal:

 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kakrueger/openstreetmap
 sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-tile
 wget http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/north-america/us/colorado.osm.pbf
 osm2pgsql -C 1500 colorado.osm.pbf
 sudo /etc/init.d/renderd restart

 At the end you should have a working tileserver based on mod_tile and
 renderd with the standerd OSM-mapnik stylesheet.

 You can test it out by opening the installed slippymap at
 http://localhost/osm/slippymap.html

 You will of cause want to replace the above lines with the downloading
 and importing of an extract with the extract you care about.

 Although for smaller areas hardware requirements aren't too bad, they
 quickly go up beyond what can be handled by a standard desktop computer.
 My rough guestimate of what a typical desktop / laptop can handle is
 about an extract of 100 - 300 Mb (no more than an hours worth of
 import). This covers most of the US and German states, as well as many
 of the other less densely mapped countries.

 If you are more serious about your tileserver, you will need to tune the
 various configuration settings, but just to play around and for personal
 use, the default settings should work reasonable.

 More information can be found on yet another wiki-page... (
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Ubuntu_tile_server )

 Any comments or feedback are welcome,

 Kai

 draw them manually over a JPEG map.

 I know the jeepneys routes of several places including Laguna and Rizal (to
 some extent).
 I can even plot the EDSA bus routes too

 can i just create the route then point to a single link like
 markers/pushpins?

 Hi all,

 I bought one of these a couple of weeks ago for P 6900. I've been waiting
 for a decent, cheap Android phone to come along, which to me is the whole
 reason for Android to exist. However most of them have been 500 USD, 400
 USD, 300 USD, until this one came along. I was a bit sceptical about the
 build quality at first, but I went to the Cherry Mobile outlet, and hefted
 it in my hand a bit and decided to take the plunge -- no such thing as
 try-before-you-buy there.

 Here are the specs:
  http://www.cherrymobile.com.ph/site/mobiles/cosmo.html

 As you can see its got Android 2.2, which apparently is streets better than
 2.1 or previous. 2.3 would have been even better, but 2.2 is OK. Other
 things which were on my must have list were 3G (check), wifi (check), and
 a 3.5 audio jack (check), and of course, the reason why I'm mentioning it
 here, GPS (check).

 I had a problem with it randomly shutting down when I first got it. My heart
 sank as I thought my worst fears were realised - cheap taiwanese trash. But
 the sales people worked with me diligently to figure out the problem, which
 turned out to be a bad memory card (actually a batch of them ...).

 So once it was working, it seems pretty good. Its not a speed machine, but
 its adequate for what I wanted. In particular the GPS ... works OK. It comes
 with Google Maps on it, so you need a wifi connection to really use that
 properly. However I found a version of Trekbuddy in the Android market, and
 loaded all my Trekbuddy maps onto it, and its been great. It takes a while
 to get a fix sometimes (I think its programmed to rely too much on AGPS and
 the contraversial wifi AP database), but once its got a fix, its been fine.

 I took it on a run last weekend, and it tracked me pretty well. I might try
 loading up the MapMyRun software next and see what happens with that.

 Anyone else running Android for mapping out there? Any good apps to try?

 Jim

 For this process, just use osmosis:

OK. This is easier option.

 You can even use a polygon instead of a simple -bbox:

Now, how I figure out the right polygon for Victoria for this bbox?

 Once you have something which can upload, you just figure out how to

 Something like Sportstracklive or its competitors let you track yourself
 live using a phone or similar device and display it live online, the
 problem with constant upload is the battery drain, and well GPRS charges
 but im sure an 1200 unlimited 3G subscription might offset that.

 I know the developer of sportstracklive, he's a foreigner living the

 people to comment or alert people as he passes by certain areas.

 I know he walks during the day, is there a mobile device charges solar

 some dynamo that will charge the phone as he walks :)

Re: [talk-ph] testing the address and street search in osmphgps garmin map

2011-02-28 Thread Noli Sicad
Hi Eugene,

 2. or help in increasing the geocoding-related data in the OSM database?

The app will do geocode Street number / House number. Iphone and
Android phones have buillt-in GPS. The app will automatically get the
coordinate (lat/long) + input of the user (i.e. Street No and Street
Name) and send it to database server (postgresql).

OSM database server is not probably suited to this app at the moment
since according to Maning is will not allow bot client. Iphone app
acts  like bot sending data to the server with one user. Although, I
am thinking of having multiple user names (e.g. 10 users with password
embedded in the app) but the problem still we need to register the 10
users in OSM database as well. I think we can't do that with one email
address.

I will be using PHP in the iphone app for connection and update of the
database. I need web server - Apache server with PHP extension and
postgresql server,  if not a LAMP (Linux Apache MySQL PHP) will do as
well.

Once this system is running system and got the data, we can easily
upload the geocoded street address into OSM database from time to
time.

Do you know any internet server provider in Phils who offers Linux,
Apache, Postgres, PHP) and what is their monthly / yearly rate /
price?

(BTW, I am residing in Melbourne, Australia right now)

 Hi Noli,

 I'm still not sure what kind of app you want to do.

 Are you developing an app that will:

 1. do geocoding and/or reverse geocoding using currently existing data
 in the OSM database?

 2. or help in increasing the geocoding-related data in the OSM database?

 3. or both?

 You will have better luck finding a hosting provider that offers MySQL
 instead of PostgreSQL. :-p

 Also, most Philippine hosting providers are resellers and have their
 servers in the US.

 Anyway, I seem to remember somebody doing a website with a similar
 intent (but uses a slippy map instead of GPS coordinates). But I can't
 seem to find it!

Yes, MySQL would be the good start, then later on move to Postgesql.

This is actually a slippy map implementation in iOS. I will be using Route-Me.

Re: [talk-ph] testing the address and street search in osmphgps garmin map

2011-02-27 Thread Noli Sicad
Hi Maning,

 Not yet, you can ignore the housenumber or input any number in the
 textbox to go to the street search.

OK. it is capable to search the house number, if there is a data.

Is it separate entry for the number?

 Your project looks good, how do you plan to integrate this dbase into
 osm?  AFAIK, there is an agreed code of conduct in OSM not to upload
 any data in bulk by a single bot/user.

I am planning to have a separate postgresql server, not use the OSM at
the moment. I need help on this server. If I can not find a free
server, I think I need to find a internet service provider with 24//7
postgresql server.

The postgresql server just need one database and one table i.e. Street

Street (
id
Latitute
Longitute
StreetNo
StreetName
Place? - for city and towns but I think no really
Users?* - default - Juan dela Cruz  :-), Anonymous
)

* Good for statistics for contributors.

The iphone app users will just input the StreetNo and StreetName. That it.

 If this is the case you need
 to provide a mechanism wherein your app users has their own OSM
 account.  Good luck!

I think we don't want the users to get OSM accounts,less work for them
the better. Just the just street number and street names are good
enough.

However, we will find a mechanism how to integrate this latter on.

Any other suggestions how can make this project going.

I will register as Apple developer and have this as my first app :-).

Thanks.

[talk-ph] Open Data Kit (ODK) can help in Getting All the Phil Street Names for OSM

2010-12-14 Thread Noli Sicad
Hi,

I think ODK Collect and ODK Aggregate can help get all the Phil Street
Names for OSM.

ODK Collect is powerful phone based replacement for your paper forms.
Collect is built on the Android platform and can collect a variety of
form data types: text, location, photos, video, audio, and barcodes.

ODK Aggregate provides a ready to deploy online repository to store,
view and export collected data. Aggregate is currently implemented on
Google App Engine and enables free hosting of data on Google's
reliable infrastructure.

http://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/

ODK Aggregate support Postgresql and MySQL
http://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/wiki/Roadmap

I think year or 2 a lot of us will be getting a cheap android phones,
and creating a simple ODK Collect Survey Form - Street you are
Standing can help get the Street Names of all the street in the Phil.

The user will just send the Street Names plu embedded location of the
person sending the data (i.e. coordinate) and Ph-OSM ODK Aggregate
will collect the data.

Maning, Eugene, Totor and others, what do you think of this idea?

Thanks.

 I'm posting this to generate insights on how we should maximize and
 accelerate data contributions in bing covered areas.

 At the moment there are a lot of bing imagery with minimal active
 ph-osmer (perhaps main reason is the lack of imagery).  I am
 predicting that this will change very soon when other people start to
 see that their area of interest has his-res imagery available.  As a
 community, how do we approach the info dissemination so that people
 become aware that there is imagery already in X town?

 Some suggestions:
 1. Lets create a coverage list and add them here:
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Philippines/hires_imagery
 . Do we have complete coverage sweep:
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Bing/Coverage#Philippines ?

 2. Check nearby editors covered by bing and remind them that imagery
 is now available (via OSM messaging).

 3.  Seed the area by tracing roads (temporarily tagged as highway=road).

 Adding stub roads can give an impression of completeness.  Hence, it
 can be counter-productive.  Personally, I have reservations on point 3
 (but lack the patience to wait for a passionate contributor in X
 town) :) .

 On the long term, the main strategy would be to encourage local osm
 groups within these imagery covered areas.

 Any ideas?

 As of November 2007, Bing Maps only has satellite imagery in the Metro
 Manila area, as I blogged back then:

Re: [talk-ph] Microsoft Bing Maps *might* support OSM

2010-07-10 Thread Noli Sicad
maning, thanks for the link.

Hope corporate and government employees can contribute to OSM mapping
using this ArcGIS 10 add-in, not mention Iphone users.

 ArcGIS is already piggyback on OSM success.

 ArcGIS for iOS4 (IPhone) is using OSM.

 Is there a way to request/demand bing to allow imagery tracing?
 (Doesn't like MS to simply piggyback on our success, they should
 definitely help in expanding mapping.)

 Update on high-resolution imagery (I did a random search) so this will
 not
 be complete:

 1. The original coverage of Metro Manila area (same extent as with
 Yahoo!)
 2. Central Cavite (Naic to Silang), southeastern Laguna (San Pedro to
 Los
 Banos), mideastern Batangas (Santo Tomas to Batangas City, including
 Lipa),
 Parts of southern Rizal (Pililla and Talim Island) [this overlaps with
 #1]
 3. Cebu City, 90% of Mactan Island, eastern Talisay, Mandaue
 4. Legazpi up to Tiwi, Malilipot, Tabaco, Guinobatan, Daraga, Jovellar,
 down
 to Donsol (Sorsogon); Mayon summit is covered with clouds
 5. Downtown Iloilo towards Oton and southern Mandurriao
 6. Zamboanga City up to Pasonanca, and the southeastern islands
 7. Cagayan de Oro
 8. Downtown Puerto Princesa, *not* including Honda Bay
 9. Tacloban (including San Juanico Bridge) down to Dulag (Bing has
 downtown
 Palo which Google doesn't)
 10. Iligan down to the northern shore of Lake Lanao (almost all of Agno
 River is covered)
 11. Cotabato City and nearby parts of Maguindanao and North Cotabato
 12. Puerto Galera (I'm surprised!)

 There is NO coverage for Davao.

[talk-ph] OSMaps, Routing, Java Phones and Android

2010-04-21 Thread Noli Sicad
Hi,

I think this might interest you guys.

Probably you can try putting some OSMaps i.e. Metro Manila in this app
and see if the routing on those maps are working  properly, if no this
app. It might also improve how you decide which main road should be
connected - routing stuff in Phils.OSM.

https://confluence.prodevelop.es/display/GVMN/Home

Try to get the java one for Nokia if you don't have android phone yet.

https://confluence.prodevelop.es/display/GVMN/Download

The source code will be available in the few weeks according to
author, if you like to add more features in this application.

Thanks.

[talk-ph] Spatialite (sqlite for spatial) OSM for routing

2010-01-11 Thread Noli Sicad
Hi,

The latest release of spatialite (10 January 2010) comes with
spatialite_osm for routing

http://www.gaia-gis.it/spatialite-2.4.0/index.html.

It has potential for creating routing cities. Routing results can be
save / exported as shapefile.

I could not make it working. I am using windows xp probably linux can do better.

I am using data downloaded from Cloudmate, probably smaller file will
give better result.
