[OSM-talk] Potlatch 1.0 broken non-ASCII input on Mac OS X?

2009-05-24 Thread Woll Newall
Potlatch 1.0 seems to have broken the input of non-ASCII characters in  
tags.

I'm running Potlatch inside the Safari browser on Mac OS X.

Before Potlatch 1.0 I could type in Japanese characters into the tags,  
but now the Japanese hiragana and katakana entries in the Kotoeri  
input menu are disabled when I'm in Potlatch (so only ASCII text can  
be entered, even in Japanese input mode).

Anyone else having the same problem?

I suggest you try out Viking. It's a software that, amongst other things, 
allows you to split a slice of time from a .gpx track.

[OSM-talk] Importing selected Tracks from Garmins Current.gpx

2009-05-24 Thread Ingo Lantschner
Hi all,
I am using a nüvi 550 from Garmin. This device stores all tracks in  
one file called Current.gpx. While this file can be imported into OSM  
I could not find a way to select the traces. So within a few days you  
are getting more and more traces when uploding this file.

For now I edited the XML by hand. But I wonder, if there is not a  
tool, which can be used to select the tracks from f.e. today or the  
last week. (GPSBable did not do that, it even does not work with  
selecting by a radius - at least not here)

Thanks for any hints, Ingo

[OSM-talk] JOSM max upload changeset size

2009-05-24 Thread Sam Vekemans
Hi,
I'm wondering what the max size per edit session that JOSM can handle is?
Whats the standard rule? Every 10mins? Or will josm accept any size,
it would just take longer?
What is a happy back-end servers size, that doesnt bog it down?

Is there a max default/timeout that JOSM squaks at?
Could JOSM check for area edits before upload starts?

Many questions,

Thanks,
Sam

[OSM-talk] Coastline error checker broken

2009-05-24 Thread David Groom
The coastline error checker ( http://tile.openstreetmap.nl/coastlines.html ) 
seems to be showing a server error.

Any idea why / when this might be fixed?

or office, apartments, mixed_use ...

currently it looks like the vast majority of buildings are just
generic "building=yes":

mixed with a few "building=greenhouse/half-cylindrical plastic sheet
covred plant growning housey things"

Correction, the lightning talk will actually be part of OSCON 
proper on the thursday (I think).

[OSM-talk] OSCON anyone?

2009-05-24 Thread Steve Singer

Is anyone going to be in San Jose the Sunday right before OSCON?
The postgresql folks are looking for someone to give a lightning talk on OSM 
at PgDay (held in the San Jose convention center right before OSCON).

Anyone willing to do this should contact me off-list.

Thanks

Steve

I thought people were sometimes using similar values to the landuse  
tags, i.e. building=commercial building=retail ?

Glad you like it (and others, thanks for the kind comments). :)


Still no 'building' preset?


What would you like to see the preset as? I'm no tagging guru.



Simply adding building=yes to the autocomplete list would encourage
mappers to use it. There's no real preset there even I think - it's
just having it appear in the autocomplete list act as encouragement to
use it. Buildings are rendered by both mapnik and osmarender, so I
guess that means its use is widely accepted.

It might look a little strange though, come to think of it, because
building=no is not used afaik..


That is because generally building=* is rendered for any area.

I would recommend having a series of building tags, such as offices,
