Yes there are:
1. http://www.yournavigation.org/
2. http://www.openrouteservice.org/ (seems to be down currently)

For Metro Manila, I think this would be useable for now but not so in
other areas of the Philippines:

But, it's just a matter of time.

Re: [OSM-talk] can your yournavigation support inter-island routing

Ahh!  Forgot to check that the routing planet file data was a week

But it works on other places:

None that I'm aware of. We're going through a lot of pain with JOSM to

I ran through the whole list, ranking the quality of the map for each of
OSM and Google on a scale of 0-5. (0 meaning that the map is blank or
only the name appears, 5 meaning that it doesn't seem like anything is
missing from the map)  Assuming I did a good job of ranking, OSM is
slightly ahead of Google worldwide and in in Africa and Asia.  In
Europe, OSM is well ahead.  Google is slightly ahead in Oceania, and
well ahead in North and especially South America

Here are the results (I can provide my rankings in a spreadsheet as well
if anyone is interested):
OSM Google

I was not aware of this agreement. When I first started thinking about
a bug tracker I intended to keep the bug reports in data structures
separate from the osm database. But in the following discussions I got
the feeling that a bug tracker which allowed free-form tagging would be
very welcomed. But implementing this means basically replicating the
node-objects (and the way-objects too if you want to mark buggy areas).
So, I concluded it would be the easiest to just introduce a new set of
tags and manage them differently in the clients. However, I can see why
this is not a very clean solution and I am happy to implement in a
different dataset.

> However, this is another subject that needs more doing and less

I am really eager to start programming something but at the moment I am
still trying to figure out what exactly. I do not want to spend time
writing a bug tracker that is then rejected because of the way it
stores the bug reports.

Please, please don't take or advocate this approach. The OSM core
tables should, ideally, contain geo-data. We already anticipate much
of the meta-data (e.g. created_by tags, usernames) to be applied to
changesets (which are in themselves natively metadata). There's been a
long and steady agreement that future bug tracking systems won't just
slap nodes into the midst of our geotables.

However, this is another subject that needs more doing and less talking :-)

have a look at the debugHelper.pl in [EMAIL PROTECTED] it will give you the
latlon center of the tile bbox and the latlon of the center of the tile.

[OSM-talk] find corners of exported maps

2008-12-04 Thread Olav Kvittem
Hi,

I wonder how I compute the coordinates of the corners of the images 
received from the web export function
for an osmarender image. I specify geodetic center position(degrees), 
zoom level and image size and get at nice map image.
The projection is of cource Mercator and I can linearly map mercator 
coordinates onto the image.
But how do I know the coordinates of the corners of the returned image ?

The url I use is :
http://server.tah.openstreetmap.org/MapOf/index.php?long=10.17456&lat=56.01566&z=6&w=500&h=592&format=png'
 


The tile-size for each level is 256x256 so given the zoom-level I could 
compute the pixel density from the
world map size in mercator projection.
That works for east direction which is linear, but for the northern 
direction the projection is nonlinear and
I am not sure if the geodetic center that I specify is at the center of 
the returned image or not.

cheers
Olav

perl code for computing the pixel density

  # $ol = east length of map section
   # pix,$piy = pixel size of image
  # find zoom level
  my $dnmax=85.0511; # max for osmarender
  my ($momax, $mnmax)=mercate($dnmax, 180); my 
$zlevel=int( log( 2*$momax / $ol ) / log(2) + 1);  # osm zoom

  # find real size of map
  my $ompp=2*$momax/(2**$zlevel)/256; # east meters per pixel for 
this level
  my $nmpp=2*$mnmax/(2**$zlevel)/256; # north meters per pixel for 
this level

[OSM-talk] Updated view of 'A year of edits on OSM' and also Santa's Routes!

2008-12-04 Thread Peter Miller
A few weeks ago ITO published a planet view of edits to OpenStreetMap over
the past year.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/peterito/3054501076/in/pool-itomedia

 

This showed lots of good stuff (and loads of hard work!) but also shows some
large scale graffiti which was immediately christened as 'Santa's routes'
(see comment on the Flickr page). Some of these routes have now been
removed.

 

We have just updated this image to show the current situation which shows
what is now left in the dataset and still needs clearing (unless they are
ferry routes). 

 

Can I suggest that people find them and edit them out if appropriate (this
is not easy with big features and the current editors)? Can I also suggest
that people make a comment on the Flickr page if they have removed one to
avoid duplicate work?

 

We will update this image every few days until they are clear, another good
reason to leave a comment if you have removed a trail.

 

It you want to keep up with other images published by ITO then why not
subscribe to the 'ItoMedia' pool.
