Re: [OSM-talk] Fwd: MGRS Atlas and grids for Concepcion, Chile
For on-the-go use, Walking Papers now sports a UTM / USNG / MGRS grid option: http://walking-papers.org/#make The maps are still in spherical mercator and all that so it's not the real thing, but it'll do for reference in a pinch. -mike.

[OSM-talk] Evaluación colectiva de la necesidad de acceso público a imágenes de alta resolución de Chile
Queridos todos, Proveedores de imágenes de satélite están aparentemente conservando imágenes de alta resolución de Chile fuera de acceso público. Éste es un intento de evaluación colectiva de necesidad. Basándose en su conocimiento de la situación en Chile, y, posiblemente, en su experiencia de cartografía de Haití gracias a la disponibilidad pública de imágenes de alta resolución allá, ¿podría escribir su testimonio o evaluación de la necesidad de la disponibilidad pública de imágenes de alta resolución de Chile? Piense que usted está escribiendo para un periodista así que: - Intenta que sea breve, porque él (o ella) es a menudo de prisa, - Sea simple, porque él puede no ser un especialista de cartografía o de imágenes de satélite, - Da ejemplos o hechos específicos. - Indica de donde escribe, y si tiene calificaciones profesionales pertinentes, Envía por favor su evaluación de necesidad también a h...@openstreetmap.org y a crisismappers-ch...@googlegroups.com.

[OSM-talk] Collective assessment of need for public high-res imagery of Chile
Dear all, Satellite image providers are apparently holding off high-res images of Chile from public access. This is an attempt at a collective assessment of need. Based on your knowledge of the situation in Chile, and possibly of your experience mapping Haiti thanks to publicly available high-res imagery, could you please write up your testimony or assessment of need for public high-res images of Chile ? Think that you are writing for a journalist so: - try to keep it short, because he (or she) is often in a hurry, - be simple, because he may not be a specialist of mapping or of satellite images, - give specific examples or facts. Send your assessment of need to h...@openstreetmap.org and crisismappers-ch...@googlegroups.com .

[OSM-talk] New List: osm-professional
Based on some feedback I've received from people inside and outside the OSM community, I've created a new list: osm-professional: http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/osm-professional This list will be for discussions of OpenStreetMap in work. The initial area I see this useful in is governments looking to contribute data to OSM, but I've already been contacted by commercial interests looking at consuming OSM data, and so this list will be a good cleaninghouse for discussions on those issues. It'll also be a bit less free-form than this list. osm-professional will be semi-moderated and while talk can get a bit rowdy sometimes, the new list will be a bit more controlled. If you're looking at using, or contributing to OSM in a professional context, please consider joining this new list. - Serge ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
Re: [OSM-talk] Serious consideration of "Newbie Editor"
I have added this as a proposed student project for this year's Google Summer of Code (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/GSoC_Project_Ideas_2010). Please feel free to add to the scope of the project. I might leave the choice of platform (Flash, Javascript, Java etc.) as a design choice the student to make it more interesting. Regards Graham.

[OSM-talk] Setup of the wms layers for Madeira Flooding in Portugal
Hi all, I have started to setup wms server for the images of the Madeira flooding, for tracing in JOSM. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Madeira/Flooding The mapfile definition is here, it works with the jpgs of DLR without change http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Madeira/Flooding/MapFile There are numerous problems with the source files, only some (4) could be processed, others are not even valid for gdal, and some have kml files. The wms layers that work are listed for each image. please report any problems, thanks Mike ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
