[OSM-talk] Changeset history - hide 'big' edits?
I guess I haven't been paying attention of late, but I just found the History tab above the map on www.openstreetmap.org Whilst this is excellent, in 'my' little corner of the world the list was swamped by 'big' edits (which covered a wide area). Would it be possible to have a magic button to hide all of the 'big' edits so I could quickly see the small local edits, to get an idea of who and how frequently they were editing my area.

Not sure what you exactly mean but http://www.itoworld.com/ might be interesting for you. Click on "osm mapper" and then on "sign up and subscribe". You can create a view of your area (or other interesting parts of the osm-map) and you'll get a colorfull map and list with all the edits performed in that area. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

[OSM-talk] osm2pgsql
Hi - I'm trying to use osm2pgsql to extract a subset area of OSM, but the --bbox option does not appear to be working. I downloaded planet-090617.osm.bz2 and then issued the following command: osm2pgsql --bbox -0.5,51.25,0.5,51.75 -m -d gis planet-090617.osm.bz2 At first it appears to be working producing the following output: planet-090617.osm.bz2 osm2pgsql SVN version 0.66-16084 Using projection SRS 900913 (Spherical Mercator) Applying Bounding box: -0.50,51.25 to 0.50,51.75 Setting up table: planet_osm_point Setting up table: planet_osm_line Setting up table: planet_osm_polygon Setting up table: planet_osm_roads Mid: Ram, scale=100 Reading in file: planet-090617.osm.bz2 Processing: Node(1400k) Way(0k) Relation(0k) But it runs for hours and uses up all of my RAM. I eventually have to kill it. How long should it take to subset a small area such as this? Thanks Jim ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
[OSM-talk] CanVec:CODE vs. CanVec:UUID -relevancy
Hi all,
Im sending it out to everyone, as its of international significance when
dealing with bulk data.
The 4 general tags
attribution=Natural Resources Canada
- tells the users what agency it came from (public/private)
created_by=canvec2osm
- tell the user what program was used to create it. ... ie. blame me if the
script doesnt work or is wrong.
source=CanVec_Import_2009
-tells the user what import project session it is ... ie. next year we might
do an import again for the updates.
canvec:UUID=11CF43756692E5F4E0409C8467120387
- is the 'lot number / series and actual product identifier, more detailed
than the bar code (' which tells the user the identity of each node/way/area
they are looking at.
The 5th, which is currently being debated
canvec:CODE=1200020
- This is the feature identifier, the SKU (Stock keeping unit) or the BIB
(Library catelogue number). This tells the user which
Library/floor/section/shelf/book/page number that they are looking at. When
the UUID identifies each character on the page.
Not having this CODE, would be like going to the library and asking if they
have a word in a book of 11CF43756692E5F4E0409C8467120387, when the CODE is
human-readable. The 0 at the end means its a NODE a 1 - means a way and a 2
means an area. The 120 at the begining means it's part of the 129 series
of features. and the '2' means it's the 2nd feature type in the set.
Like identifing 2 identical books, 'Times Atlas' where they has different
UUID's, but the same Catelogue code.
So does anyone have objections to the logic and usefullness behind me
keeping canvec:CODE? Or any arguments for/against what i wrote above?..
And at the same time im recommending for all imports that this gets added
(it its available).
Thanks,
Sam Vekemans

It take at least 2 hours to process the full planet, this is time taken just to do the bzip2 decompression and XML parsing without even writing anything out to the database. There is a lot of data in the full planet file. The algorithms in the code are optimised for the full planet import and are not as efficient as they could be for very small areas. Using the --slim option should fix the memory issue. Alternatively you could start with a UK or England only extract and save yourself a lot of bandwidth and import time.

To give you some firm numbers, the full planet import on the main tile server with 12GB of RAM takes around 12 hours. On my home machine I normally import a UK only planet file and it takes about 15 minutes and about 2GB of RAM. The --slim option reduces the RAM usage but the import time will increase if you have less RAM to cache the DB in memory during the import.

[OSM-talk] Map legends: Another option
Hi All, I know that there's been some talk about generating map legends/keys lately, and I don't know if there's a need for another option. It generated some interest when I mentioned it in my diary recently, however... I created a python script that generates an HTML legend (with images) based on a description of features to be included and one or more Mapnik XML configuration files. Thus, I can automatically generate legends for each zoom level of my map. If I modify the map style, I can just run the script again. Example at: http://toposm.com/ma/ (click on "Show/Hide Legend" at the bottom right). It's dynamic, so it will reload when you zoom in and out. It was created for the TopOSM project, but it may be useful to other projects that use Mapnik for rendering. The script itself, and more info, is available at: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/TopOSM#Map_legend - Lars -- Lars Ahlzen l...@ahlzen.com ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Re: [OSM-talk] Map legends: Another option
It's nice seeing changing road width with zoom also in the legend! It would be also interesting to hide features that are not appearing in the map currently being shown. Sure it would require a bbox query, but it would be much more user friendly (eg when matching 2 shades of green in a map to 5 shades in the legend) and it would also allow showing relevant POI icons OTOH new mappers should see also not yet existing features (as their palette of features to choose from) with links to wiki :) Stefan On Sat, Jun 27, 2009 at 1:17 AM, Lars Ahlzen wrote: > Hi All, > > I know that there's been some talk about generating map legends/keys > lately, and I don't know if there's a need for another option.
