Re: [OSM-talk] Presenting filter for openstreetmaps history RSS feeds
Hello again! Small update to RSS filtering service. In the past few days I've found that it is probably difficult for everyone to use current feed creation process ( which involved copying RSS URL from the image on openstreetmap.org page). So I simplified the process. Now you only need URL to a history page, which is usually visible and copyable from address bar in your browser. The app will extract needed RSS feed on its own and generate filtered feed url and present it to you. So if you tried the service and it did not work well somehow, you can create a filtered rss link again, this time providing with history page URL, not RSS url. Detailed steps are descripbed on http://positron96.appspot.com/osmfilter.html . If the service worked well for you, there is no need to change anything, filtering process and interface itself did not changed a bit. Any comments and reports are still highly appreciated.

Hi Pavel, Pavel Melnikov schrieb: > Any comments and reports are still highly appreciated. I guess you missed my comment in the forum, so I'm reposting it here again: --- thanks for this great little tool. I like it. However, the filtering is still too conservative for my needs as still more than 9 out of 10 changesets cover half of Europe. Thus, could you consider a smaller threshold for filtering changesets out? Or even better, adding (two) more parameters to your feed, enabling the user to specify the threshold himself? --- Thanks, Peda -- ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
Re: [OSM-talk] Presenting filter for openstreetmaps history RSS feeds
Hello everyone. Some users suggested a feature to specify filtering limits manually. This feature is online now. On the main page ( http://positron96.appspot.com/osmfilter.html) there are 2 controls to set latitude and longitude limits in degrees. Generated feeds will contain changesets that are smaller than the specified size. Feeds that you have already created will continue to work as they did (but will use default 20 deg/40 deg values).

Thanks a lot, Pavel! I've always wished for a tool that allowed me to track alterations on the map in a so easily way.

Hi Pavel, Pavel Melnikov schrieb: > Some users suggested a feature to specify filtering limits manually. This > feature is online now. thanks for adding this feature. I tested it some days now for my 2 main mapping areas and I like it very much! Thanks again. Btw, do the lat/lon-params support for floats or ints only?

Re: [OSM-talk] Presenting filter for openstreetmaps history RSS feeds
Hello Peter. Floating number are fully supported. You can use decimal point like 20.1 or 0.5 Best wishes, Pavel On Fri, Jun 15, 2012 at 3:38 AM, Peter Barth wrote: > Hi Pavel, > > Pavel Melnikov schrieb: > > Some users suggested a feature to specify filtering limits manually.
