[HOT] iD news: v2.5.0, OpenStreetCam, and request for translation help..

2017-12-07 Thread Bryan Housel
Happy December!  We have lots moving in the iD editor project.  

📷  OpenStreetCam

Last month, I released iD v2.5.0 (November 10, 2017), which includes support 
for OpenStreetCam.  If you haven’t tried it yet, you should really check out 
how easy it is to work with street level imagery in iD.

👩‍🎓 New Help text coming soon

I recently merged a big pull request to iD, contributed by Manfred Brandl, to 
overhaul the internal help texts.  The good news is that it replaces those 
giant blocks of markdown text with short headings and texts which will be much 
easier to translate and maintain going forward.  The bad news is that it means 
all of that old help text needs to be translated again…

If you can translate, I need your help!

You don’t need to be a programmer - if you speak another language in addition 
to English, you can do this!  Please log into the iD project on Transifex, 
https://www.transifex.com/openstreetmap/id-editor/dashboard/ 
 and check the 
languages that are available for translation.  And share this info with 
*anyone* who you know that might want to get involved!  

Please share:

As always, follow me on Twitter https://twitter.com/bhousel 
 for the latest iD news.  More great features 
coming soon...

Thank you!

Re: [HOT] iD news: v2.4.0 released

2017-08-28 Thread Bryan Housel
Hey Dale, it is possible to automatically check the “review requested” checkbox 
for new users, but I decided against it at least for the initial rollout of the 
feature.  Some more thoughts here:  
https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/pull/4223#issuecomment-322211377 


For now the reviews are “opt-in”, we may change this later if we decide the 
feature is useful.

Thanks, Bryan

@Brian is it possible to have have 'review_requested=yes' auto filled if a
user has less than some number of edits or would changes_count be a better
way to get the same data.

I'm huge fan of this feature. Getting changes reviewed is a great way for
educating and training people. Maybe someday we'll have readability for
different countries / regions and/or categories of edits.

Can't wait to start using it.

OSMCha will show if a user has requested a review (though I’m not sure if they 
have pushed the new version yet that does this).

We’re also planning to add it to our bots in slack and IRC that monitor edits 
in the US.

[HOT] iD news: v2.4.0 released

2017-08-25 Thread Bryan Housel
iD v2.4.0 was released August 25, 2017 and is now available for editing on 
openstreetmap.org 

📣  A few highlights from the release:

NEW Esri World Imagery layer:
Esri has made their World Imagery Service available for OSM use! 
Read more here:  
https://blogs.esri.com/esri/arcgis/2017/08/24/world-imagery-in-osm/ 


NEW fields on the save screen:
   • Added a checkbox for mappers to request for someone to review their edits.
   • Added a Source field to allow users to add multiple sources.
   • Added a Hashtags field to allow users to add multiple event hashtags.
- Hashtags can also be set via the API from a Task Manager or Q/A app.  
- Hashtags are automatically extracted from the `comment` field.

NEW changeset tags for improved changeset analysis
   • `review_requested=yes`  (“yes” if the user has checked the box)
   • `source=*`  (semicolon delimited, e.g. “survey;gps")
   • `hashtags=*`  (semicolon delimited, e.g. “#MissingMaps;#Tanzania”)
   • `changesets_count=*`  (number of edits the user has made, will be “0” for 
someone making their first edit)

  Walkthrough tags, will be set only if a user has made <100 edits:
   • `ideditor:walkthrough_started=yes`  (“yes” if the user started the 
walkthrough)
   • `ideditor:walkthrough_progress=*`  (semicolon delimited, e.g. 
"welcome;navigation;point;area”)
   • `ideditor:walkthrough_started=yes`  (“yes” if the user completed all 
walkthrough sections)

Performance:
   • iD can now schedule deferred work in modern browsers with 
requestIdleCallback, (contributed by Kushan Joshi).  
This means big speedups in parsing, loading data from OSM, and rendering.

Presets:
   • Added presets for many theme park attractions (contributed by Willie 
Marcel)
   • Added preset for `amenity=shower` (contributed by JamesKingdom)
   • Added preset `emergency=life_ring` (contributed by JamesKingdom)
   • Added presets and icons for railway mapping Buffer Stop, Derailer, 
Milestone, Signal, Switch, Train Wash (contributed by JamesKingdom)

...and more!

[HOT] iD news: v2.2.2 released

2017-06-14 Thread Bryan Housel
iD v2.2.2 was released June 12, 2017 and is now available for editing on 
openstreetmap.org 

📣  A few highlights from the release:

New:  press `?` to bring up a Keyboard Shortcuts help popup screen, built by 
Ajith and Kushan.  We’ve also put a lot of effort into making the screen 
localizable and improving how keyboard shortcuts work across all browsers, 
operating systems, and with different international keyboard layouts.
Updated to use the Mapillary v3 API, which is much faster and seems to return a 
lot more traffic signs than before
When copy/pasting features, don’t omit certain tags like `name`, `addr:*`, 
`contact:*`
Fix for “entity not found” error due to Chrome bug
New presets for `craft=distillery`, `highway=elevator`, 
`craft=electronics_repair`, `shop=appliance`
Many more bugfixes!

[HOT] iD news: v2.2.0 released

2017-05-09 Thread Bryan Housel
iD v2.2.0 was released May 9 2017 and is now available for editing on 
openstreetmap.org 

This is possibly our biggest release ever because it includes over 100 features 
and represents about 3 months of work by 13 contributors, and countless other 
translators and testers.  Thank you to everyone who made this possible!  ❤️
📣 Release Highlights

🛰 Two new global satellite imagery layers: DigitalGlobe Premium and 
DigitalGlobe Standard!
These new layers cover many parts of the world that previously had no usable 
imagery.
Check out the new imagery by opening the Background pane (shortcut B)

👉 A new right-click editing menu replaces the old radial menu.
The new editing menu gives iD room to grow and won't get in the way of your 
editing.
Remember: Right-click on map features to use the new menu.

👩‍🎓 The introductory walkthrough has been completely revised, covering more 
OpenStreetMap concepts and common editing tasks using the new right-click menu. 
Users can explore and practice editing in the example town - now much better 
mapped than before and completely localizable. Even long time iD users should 
give it a try!
Replay the walkthrough from the Help pane (shortcut H).

🚦 Big refresh of icons! You'll see a lot more icons for commonly mapped 
features.
Map traffic signals, stop signs, benches, crossings, street lamps, fountains, 
towers, and many more.

✍️ You can now see and edit changeset tags before uploading to OpenStreetMap.


The complete changelog is pretty epic, and can be found here:
   Changelog:  https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#220 


The next time you launch iD, you might even see a notification down in the 
corner of the screen about the new version!

[HOT] iD is getting a new menu...

2017-02-25 Thread Bryan Housel
Just wanted to pre-announce that the next version of iD (coming sometime in 
March) will have a new menu!
Here’s a picture:  https://twitter.com/bhousel/status/835607333640232962 


We don’t often change iD’s user interface, but we felt that iD was starting to 
outgrow the “radial menu”, and it was time to move to a more traditional 
right-click context menu.  The new edit menu will only pop up when the user 
right-clicks, so it will not get in the way of editing as much as the old menu 
did.  Also by switching from a circular shape to a vertical bar, we are less 
constrained by the number of items that we can add to the menu.

Details about how the work came together over the past month, and screenshots 
can be found here:
https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/pull/3753 

Thanks to Kushan for much of the code, and Rasagy for the design work.

Please try out editing with the new menu by using the mirror here:
https://openstreetmap.us/iD/master/ 

Thanks,
Bryan

[HOT] iD news: v2.1.0 released

2017-02-04 Thread Bryan Housel
iD v2.1.0 was released Feb 4 2017 and is now available for editing on 
openstreetmap.org 

Here are some of our favorite new features:
- Disconnected endpoints now appear slightly larger, and iD will warn if a user 
creates a disconnected road
- Improved save flow directs users to enter their comment and upload their 
changes (some users would miss that step)
- RTL languages like Arabic and Hebrew are now drawn correctly along line paths 
(thanks Milad Karbasizadeh)
- Improved checks to avoid creation of duplicate consecutive nodes and invalid 
geometries (thanks slhh)
- Users must select vertices and nodes before dragging them, preventing 
accidental drags (thanks Eduard Popov)
- Now support KML and GeoJSON in addition to GPX files (thanks Mert Emin 
Kalender)
- Icons were refreshed to use the latest Maki iconset (thanks Ajith Ranka)
- Better country-specific customization of address fields (thanks Natsuyasumi)
- Reflect operations!  You can now reflect shapes with T ↔️ and Y ↕️  (thanks 
Psigio)

By my count, 17 people contributed to this release, which feels like a record 
high.  Thank you everyone for an awesome start to 2017!

About stylus,

A friend of mine has Adonit Jot Pro which is cost about US$30. I used it
for drawing on his iPad and I think it's quite accurate, not sure for iD as
I always use my laptop to edit OSM. However, looking I have good experience
for drawing, I think you can consider this option.

The Verge has a comprehensive list of iPad stylus.

Other alternative - a bluetooth mouse?

I'm not an ipad  user so I'm not sure.  However using a stylus on other
devices isn't in my opinion as accurate as a 800 dpi mouse.

In Canada I can buy cheap wireless mice for under $10 but I'm not sure if
they work with an ipad.  My understanding is you have to jailbreak the ipad
which doesn't do wonders for an apple warranty and  isn't something I'd
recommend.

[HOT] iD Editor on iPad

2016-11-12 Thread Mike Thompson
I am working with a group that would like to work on humanitarian mapping
projects in the Tasking Manager, however they only have access to iPads. I
investigated the iOS specific editors here:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Apple_iOS However, I don't think any of
these are integrated with the Task Manager.

I borrowed an iPad and did some testing of the iD editor on it. It seems to
work, but it is very difficult to draw precisely with ones finger, and it
is particularly difficult to "click"/tap the last node on a way a second
time in order to complete it (the location of the click / tap is likely to
be different enough from the last node to create a new node instead of
finishing the way).

Does anyone have any advice (apart from telling them to move to a different
platform)? Would a stylus solve the problem on the iPad? Are there  reasons
other than the precision of the tapping/clicking that make the iD editor
unusable on an iPad? Do any of the iOS specific apps have a remote control
interface so that they can be used with the Tasking Manager?

[HOT] iD v2.0.0 beta - help test!

2016-11-04 Thread Bryan Housel
We have been working really hard on iD the past few months and we’re releasing 
v2.0.0 in the next week or so.

iD v2.0.0 will look and feel the same as v1.x but has significant changes to 
the code structure. It is written in a modular style, and uses new tools to 
build the code.  This will benefit us by making it easier to keep iD's 
dependencies up to date, share iD code with other OSM projects, and keep 
current the with ever-changing state of the art in JavaScript development.

Huge thanks go out to to all of our contributors, the changelog is really 
amazing:

Re: [HOT] iD and Chromebook?

Hi Mike, 

We've had a few folks at our Seattle mapathons using ID on Chromebooks with 
success.

Yes, iD runs on a Chromebook. I've happily done 675 changesets using this
combination.

Most Chromebooks might tend to be lower-powered than most Windows laptops
or any Mac, so if there are things competing (e.g. lots of open tabs, or
one or more tabs eating excess CPU), iD may be a bit sluggish. But if one
starts with a clean login session or closes most other tabs, I expect iD
will work absolutely fine on any Chromebook. I've used it on both a
low-powered Chromebook and on a medium-high-powered Chromebook, and both
have been very usable.

Re: [HOT] iD

2016-03-06 Thread john whelan
My personal view would be if the standard term was added in brackets that
would be fine.  So Minor Rd (unclassified) I don't know iD so I'm unable to
comment if any other values would need adjusting.  I think this is the
simple solution.

Again a personal view but that would align iD with the values in the OSM
wiki feature etc. and in general mappers would find it useful to know the
terms used in different parts of OSM are the same.

I think the official party line should come from the HOT training group
though.

Re: [HOT] iD

Hi Russell, Suzan,
There is not an iD specific mailing list, but I do subscribe to all of the 
mailing lists and read everything.
The best place to ask me about iD is our GitHub issue tracker:  
https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD 

If iD is an important component in the work done by HOT, it would probably be a 
smart idea for some of your membership to follow our work on our Github page so 
that you are aware when we make changes to things like the captions.  If not, 
free to just drop iD as an option from your task manager and use JOSM for 
everything.  Trust me, my feelings will not be hurt.

Almost everything about iD is customizable, we made it this way specifically 
for projects like HOT that might want to customize the OSM stack and use their 
own presets, translations, imagery, wiki, taginfo documentation, etc.  

It would be very easy for HOT to host their own custom version of iD.  Several 
other organizations are already doing this, and I’d be happy to help with this 
if you have anyone in your organization that feels like putting in a few days 
of work to make this happen.

Thanks,
Bryan

Just the UI. It's also the name Potlatch has also given the equivalent 
preset (for years), so it's nothing new.



And yes, "unclassified" does confuse people, but it's something they'll
be exposed to and should be explained sooner or later anyway?


Editing OpenStreetMap should be open to people without the need to read 
a manual first. Let people learn gradually at their own pace. If you 
introduce people to HOT differently that's cool, but iD as deployed on 
osm.org is a general-purpose editing tool for OpenStreetMap, of which 
HOT is just one of many uses.



Don't have
a laptop at hand, but is the underlying tag value still visible in iD?


Yes.

Hi,

Could you please clarify - have the underlying tags and values themselves
changed, or just their descriptions/UI? It sounds like the latter to me
from your response. The former would be bad, the latter is something we
could/should adapt to.

And yes, "unclassified" does confuse people, but it's something they'll be
exposed to and should be explained sooner or later anyway? Don't have a
laptop at hand, but is the underlying tag value still visible in iD? I'm
hoping this has been discussed, but wouldn't a description like "Minor
(unclassified)" be an option?

Best,
Paul

Oh yes they do.

highway=unclassified _means_ a minor road. It has always meant a minor road.
Ever since the highway tagging scheme was invented by Andy Robinson in 2006.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:highway
   "minor roads of a lower classification than tertiary"

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dunclassified
   "The tag highway=unclassified is used for minor public roads"

The word "unclassified" comes from the British road system, as do the other
values, "motorway", "trunk", "primary" and "secondary". The choice of word
was unfortunate in retrospect: newcomers often think that it means "a road
where I don't know the classification" (for which the correct tag is
highway=road), and I believe this has recently been observed at Missing Maps
events. Ten years on it's not realistic to change the raw tag value, but
that's why user-friendly editors such as iD and Potlatch have descriptive
presets rather than simply presenting raw tags.

If iD moving to a more descriptive preset name has made HOT documentation
out-of-date, you need to change the HOT documentation. Of course, iD is open
source so you always have the alternative of hosting a forked version as
well.

Richard

2016-03-04 Thread Suzan Reed
I was shocked when I went into a Task using iD and found all the names of Roads 
had changed. There is no Unclassified Road anymore, and there isn’t even the 
designation “Road”. All my tracings have changed to designations I’ve never 
heard of in iD or JOSM. When I look in JOSM they are all there as Unclassified 
Roads as per the instructions in the Task, but in iD, they are completely 
different. I looked at other Tasks and these new tags are in iD in every task. 

Who changed the tags? How do we get them changed back so they match JOSM and 
all the information about OSM and HOT?

This isn’t good. 

New people who learn in iD won’t know how to do the Instructions in a task, and 
when they graduate to JOSM, they will have to learn all the tags over again. 
Plus! The new tags (minor road etc.) do not match any of the Wikis, learning 
tools in HOT or OSM. 

I am very disappointed to discover this change and hope the Powers will repair 
this and make iD tags match everything else.

The highway tags seen in JOSM are not apparently what an iD user sees.  I'm 
trying very hard to put this politely but how ...  am I supposed to 
communicate with an iD user to say please think twice before using 
highway=motorway in an African village and how are they supposed to know what 
the African wiki road tags are and how they relate to iD?

And please don't suggest I use iD for anything including validation.

Thanks John

Re: [HOT] ID Editor, Safari and Bing

2016-02-25 Thread Bryan Housel
It’s probably https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues/2913 

All released versions of Safari 9.0.x have an SVG bug affecting iD.  
Sometimes imagery doesn’t load, sometimes Safari crashes.

Fortunately the bug is fixed upstream in Webkit, but we’re just waiting for 
Apple to include the fix in a Safari release.  
If switching to Chrome isn’t an option, one thing that seems to help is 
enabling the minimap in iD with the ‘/‘ key.

Hello,

How to conventionalize the placement of nodes/areas for Indonesian schools
in OSM?

Here, for your discussion and editing, is a wiki page with what I have so
far, and please do correct my errors.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Indonesia/Tagging_Schools

Please do use the talk page for discussion!

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Indonesia/Tagging_Schools

Included in the wiki page are some examples that you can feel free to
update.

Perhaps, after the discussion has reached a conclusion or ebb we can follow
up with a project:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Project_of_the_month

Add your schools to OSM!

Perhaps we can re-issue that page for Indonesia with our updated protocol
for the tagging of the schools, since the instructions on that page aren't
very complete with regard to how schools can/should be tagged :)
