[Chinmay Tumbe]

Hi,

Am assuming we have maps for Bangalore, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Delhi. Someone 
needs to start a googlespreadsheets with India's top 100 cities by 
population and see the gaps. Plan to have students digitize some ward 
(municipal/Census) level maps soon and this list would be useful.

Regards,
Chinmay Tumbe

[datameet] Re: Map Digitalization Effort

[Sharad Lele]

Dear Nisha,

Can you take the csv given by Justin, and create an online spreadsheet, 
with columns indicating URL for source pdf /jpeg, whether digitized or not, 
if not then who is taking the lead on that city, and URL of final 
shapefile something like that...?

I can contribute shapefile for Coimbatore city ward boundaries also, if I 
know where to send it/upload it.

Ideally, we would want pdfs and shapefiles all sitting in parallel folders 
in the same location? 

Sharad

[Dilip Damle]

Hi, 
What are the copyright / legal issues in reverse engineering these maps and 
sharing them back publicly.

I have checked the maps On the link Bihar and Gujarat seen to be good 
because they are vector and have layers which can be reverse engineered as 
separatr layers. Rajiv Gandhi awas yojna maps are raste rand are 
practically useless.

Re: [datameet] Re: Map Digitalization Effort

[Arun Ganesh]

The digitization will involve using a combination of tools. If anyone can
share a use case on how they want to use the data, it will help create
simple instructional guides to document the process. The OpenStreetMap
India community can help with making guides and teaching if needed.

I am hoping to lay my hands on old (1991) village boundary layer maps 
for many states.


We should probably focus our energies on Town Ward boundary maps--these 
are the hardest to get.


Copyright: I would not worry about this---this has to be public 
information...

What are the copyright / legal issues in reverse engineering these

I have checked the maps On the link Bihar and Gujarat seen to be good 
because they are vector and have layers which can be reverse 
engineered as separatr layers. Rajiv Gandhi awas yojna maps are raste 
rand are practically useless.

We started a github wiki to collect links to PDFs we have found
that need to be digitalized.

How should we do this? Who can help?

I think we do some skill sharing hangouts on how to digitalize if
people are interested and slowly work on freeing sets of maps.

What do you all think?

Dilip:

before you put in more effort, could you pause for 24hrs? I think I may 
have the Gujarat village boundary file for 1991 in vector 
(un-georeferenced) format. Will know by tomorrow.

Re: [datameet] Re: Map Digitalization Effort

[Dilip Damle]

Hi,

I think I will share the data anyway after doing some checks. I am not 
attempting the attribute linking right now because that will be a bigger 
effort.

I tried to georeference it. 
My approach was as follows. 
So far I have not used any transformations which distorts the shape as it 
was in the PDF file.
I imported each district separately and have been able to match them with 
each other to make the whole of Gujarat using only MOVE, SCALE (EQUAL XY) 
and ROTATE. 
Practically I used the Autocad ALIGN command. 

Which means I have exactly same shape as in PDF files. 

Then I thought I will guess the original projection and see if it matches 
and then reproject it rather than Doing any rubbersheeting/other arbritrary 
distortions to shape.

I tried LCC projection for India , UTM 43N, and LL84 in that order. They do 
not seem to match. 

Anyone may suggest any other possible projection. 

Otherwise I will check it and share it as it is.

This is the summary of the Data : 

33 districts : 114 Polylines in Autocad (because of Islands and enclaves)
379 Taluka Polylines
20128 Village polylines
15804 Text names
16137 Markers manly the Village dot.

Hi all,

I am including Mr. Joshi from Gujarat Police and who is also the head of
the GIS department, Gujarat Police. He might be having some other ideas and
resources.

Dear Joshi Sir,

Please help the Datameet community. They are helping us to improve the
openstreetmap  data for
Gujarat. Your inputs will be valuable.

Thank You,

Re: [datameet] Re: Map Digitalization Effort

[Sharad Lele [शरच्चंद्र लेले]]

Dear Dilip:

the projection depends upon the source. In most cases, the only source 
that exists is the Census district handbook maps. These in turn have 
been prepared from taluka level maps that the Directorate of Land 
Records and Survey Settlement creates from village-level cadastral maps. 
Now this method by definition means there is no original projection 
system, and that these maps are not geo-corrected (not 
terrain-corrected) as the originals are based on chain survey and plain 
table surveys, not theodolite surveys. So unless someone has done some 
correction work before creating the maps you used, they would have 
significant limitations in terms of geo-referencing. Our experience (we 
created the Karnataka layer from scratch, by digitizing the individual 
taluka-level village boundary maps by hand) tells us RMS errors of 2-3km 
for the state as a whole would be normal. What we did was to 
georeference by matching the state boundary so created to the Survey of 
India state boundary, which is available and is a properly projected 
layer. (Simply creating a prj file for the existing map does not work, 
because the scans will be anyway in centimetre or mm or inch units. So 
you need pucca geo-rectification.) Fairly easily done in QGIS.


I hope this helps. Am still digging for the layers we supposedly have.
