Hi Peter,

I noticed a bit of activity around Maynooth :)

In the past, I've asked Derrick Rethans to make time lapse videos for
various projects

2 for Lesotho

And 1 for Galway

You usually just need to supply him with a bounding box and the dates
from/to

It's better if you contact him ahead of the start date but I think he can
work back.

You should be able to get a hold of him through twitter @derickr

There are other ways of doing it yourself, but I'm afraid I can't help
there.

Hello everyone,

At the Dept of Computer Science here in Maynooth University I currently
have two undergraduate students working with me on an internship project.
One of the key tasks in this project is to update existing data and
contribute new data to OpenStreetMap in the University. Our focus is
mapping the changes around the two campus from local knowledge and
on-the-ground survey. So we are mapping everything from our new buildings
to litter bins, trees, lampposts and sundials! In summary Barry [
http://hdyc.neis-one.org/?barry23] and Stephen [
http://hdyc.neis-one.org/?Stephen_Fay] have really embraced the challenge.

On a daily basis we have a Python script which downloads the OSM XML for
Maynooth and stores this file.

At the end of their project (late April) we'd like to create a
visualization of the changes in the University OpenStreetMap map - maybe on
a weekly basis (or even daily) - for the duration of the internship.

Has anyone on the IE list done this before? Can anyone give us some
pointers on what the best approach should be? We're considering Mapnik and
Maperative. Something we could script with Python or similar would be
great.

Thanks in advance,

Peter
