 Uredba o snimanju iz zraka:
 http://www.nn.hr/clanci/sluzbeno/2003/1592.htm

 Snimanjem iz zraka smatraju se sva snimanja kod kojih se uređaj za
 snimanje ne nalazi na zemlji, vodi ili objektima na njima.

 Pravne i fizičke osobe iz članaka 2. i 6. ove Uredbe smiju snimati iz
 zraka područja i vodene površine u Republici Hrvat skoj samo nakon
 pribavljenog odobrenja za razvijanje zračnih snimaka.


 Ako bilo tko slika tko iz zraka i pri tome bude uhvaćen bez dozvole može
 imati problema. Opet se pojavljuju problemi ako se slike objave bez
 dozvole. Znam dosta ljudi koji su zmajari i objavljuju svoje slike online
 na Picassi i Flickeru bez da su imali problema.

 Pretpostavljam da bi problema imali tek u komercijalnim vodama ili ako vi
 slike koristili za neki projekt koji bi bio nekome trn u oku te bi vas
 prijavio nekoj od službi.

 Zato savjetujem da ako ćete ikada neku sliku koju slikate iz zraka
 objaviti negdje javno probajte naći neku firmu koja ima dozvolu za
 snimanje iz zraka te preko nje riješiti dozvole.

 Zna li neko koju OSM friendly firmu koja bi to mogla napraviti ako bi
 dobili slike od avio modelara, zmajara i ostalih a želim ih objaviti
 javno kao wms layer ili kao neki map mashup?

 Komentari? Sugestije?


vjerujem da bi kontaktiranjem ureda odgovornog za to pitanje dobio 
dozvolu bez problema. ne vidim razlog zasto bi se protivili.

Re: [OSM-talk] Highway=footway or highway=track for peds only on gravel

2010-05-31 Thread Claudius
Am 30.05.2010 22:00, Stan Berka:
 Since I'm using Potlatch to edit the map, I start the tagging of a
 walking path/road etc. by selecting the presets for the walking man.
 Then, I select by the surface and permissibility, which for a peds only,
 gravel, 4ft wide public path ends up as higway=track and surface=gravel.
 But isn't highway=footway the preferred tagging for this?

highway=track is for ways that are wide enough to be *potentially* used 
by a 4 wheel vehicle. If it's that wide and has tracks than you should 
tag it liek that. If legally only pedestrians are allowed add vehicle=no.
If it's a pedestrian footway in urban surroundings I would use 
highway=footway, if it's a rural hiking/walking trail I would prefer 
highway=path + foot=yes

You see: Endless tagging opportunities :)

actually the case which is IMHO more difficult to decide is when the
access is physically restricted by heavy obstacles (massive rock

I would use highway=track even if there is some sort of obstacle. In my
opinion, the obstacle is a different feature and it could be tagged with
barrier=*.

You also have the case where vehicular access is limited to official vehicles, 
such as emergency vehicles and vehicles used to transport materials for 
maintaining the pathway, but the general public is only allowed to use the path 
on foot.  I know of some hiking trails where this is the case, as well as some 
(in the same nature preserve) that are so narrow and steep that they are 
passable only on foot.

[OSM-talk] OpenStreetMap Ad

Hey All,

Yesterday Richard Weait and I got an email about an opportunity to put

around was only a couple hours (I'm assuming some advertiser dropped
out or something).

Anyway we didn't have anything readily available so we weren't able to
seize the opportunity.  Does any materials like this exist somewhere

When opportunity knocks [next] we should be ready ;-)

Would there not be something in the Press section of the wiki

I don't know whether there is or not so this isn't a slight at anyone

That's precisely the reasoning that I'm arguing against.  With all due
respect, it just doesn't make any sense.   You have to either drastically
redefine the meaning of verifiability (able to be confirmed as true or
false by other mappers) or the meaning of on the ground (less clear, but
roughly encapsulated in relatively non-movable property in a public place).

By these definitions, something that is able to be confirmed as true or
false in an official online source is actually *more* verifiable than
something written on a street sign in a place where Google Street View has
not yet visited.  It certainly is verifiable, and it is not necessarily on
the ground.

So, I don't know if you've got different definition(s), or you just don't
follow that logic.

Is there currently any reason to talk about this? IMHO OSM is a
project that should be also fun to contribute and to use. If it
becomes a bureaucratic hazzle like the German Wikipedia people will
leave - at least I will probably. I guess you don't know this, but in
the German Wikipedia there are actually groups of people enjoying
deleting articles of others which cover topics that are either not
relevant or not elaborate enough. All this is of course done in a
strictly democratic way, there are Kill lists, votings and so on.

I would be really sad to see OSM end in endless discussions about
relevance, leading to many mappers leave the ship.

That's a great point.  I hate fixing an area of map which is already in
place and coming across information which I can't verify.  Do I copy the
information blindly, assuming that the previous contributor must have
verified it, or do I delete it?  If everything is either on the ground or
has a link to a source, this would greatly simplify that dilemma.

Not completely, though.  It's sometimes quite difficult to verify road
names, especially when the road can't be reached by foot.  I guess the
safest thing to do then is delete the names and let someone else go back and
add them, especially if the roads have been significantly changed (I'm
thinking of the Tampa Airport Interchange Project which I see Nathan has
gone in and cleaned up quite nicely).

And then there's the road designations of primary/secondary/etc.  Not only
is that not on the ground, it's not even verifiable.  In those cases I
just guess.  Or mark it as highway=road (see
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/47280788).

Well, some people in the traffic-jam discussion seem to be taking the viewpoint 
that if something is not verifiable by people in other geographical locations, 
without actually visiting the location under discussion, then it should not be 
classified as being verifiable at all.

Subject: Re: [OSM-talk] On the ground rule on the wiki

2010/5/31 John F. Eldredge j...@jfeldredge.com:
 This brings up another question.  On the tagging list, there is currently a 
 discussion of whether or not to tag areas that have frequent traffic jams.  
 If something is only verifiable part of the time, such as having traffic jams 
 or being the site of a market on the weekends, does it count as verifiable 
 on the ground?


Is there currently any reason to talk about this? IMHO OSM is a
project that should be also fun to contribute and to use. If it
becomes a bureaucratic hazzle like the German Wikipedia people will
leave - at least I will probably. I guess you don't know this, but in
the German Wikipedia there are actually groups of people enjoying
deleting articles of others which cover topics that are either not
relevant or not elaborate enough. All this is of course done in a
strictly democratic way, there are Kill lists, votings and so on.

I would be really sad to see OSM end in endless discussions about
relevance, leading to many mappers leave the ship.

Martin

Well, I think there's a difference between being verifiable on the ground
and having reference on the ground.  The name of a lake or a river has
reference on the ground, even if the name of the lake or river isn't
printed on a sign.  A county border which is defined with reference to
roads, rivers, fences, etc. has a reference on the ground, even if the
name of the county isn't printed on any of those features.

I can agree that OSM should not include data which has absolutely no
reference to physical (relatively) non-movable features on the ground.  But
once the feature is there, when is it okay to tag it with features which
aren't strictly on the ground?

Maybe the answer is never.  Personally I think the correct answer is more
like usually not, at least usually not in highly developed areas which
tend to put signs on everything.  But I think it's confusing if you refer to
that as encompassed by the verifiability rule.  It's really a separate
rule altogether.

Huh?  So in any location where we don't have good aerials and street views
we can't map at all?  Or do photographs count (in which case, just take a
photograph of the traffic jam)?

Actually, wrt the traffic jams I'd just as well they not be in OSM, for much
the same argument that Frederik just presented (the data will just sit
there and be left to rot, or left to wait for another update by those who
keep it).  But as far as I'm concerned, so long as people use tags and
features which don't collide with the things I'm interested in, I really
don't care what unmaintainable crap they add to the database.

I don't view it as a dumpster either, even though such a thing would
definitely be useful.  There's no place where all license-compatible
data can be accessed in a unified format and without looking up URLs
of individial databases or phoning individual owners of the data such
as the county administration in the US to get access to each piece.

But.. the source of the data and the usefulness are two orthogonal
things.  I don't think you should discriminate useful information
because the source is not kosher.  Otherwise you'll never have a
complete map with all the information you might need.  Also there's no
100% verifiability, all data is verifiable for some groups of users
and others will have to trust them.  I'm thinking of the military
bases where different percentages of the population can enter (some of
them let school children in as part of day excursions, others are
accessible by fewer than 100 people on Earth).

And all of our data is constantly rotting except for the discrete
moments when a mapper has a chance to check a given record and update
it.  I really see no difference there.

What's the point of the phrase on the ground?  If asking the owner counts

[OSM-talk] Software goes on, brain goes off...

2010-05-31 Thread John Smith
Hugh Pickens writes The Toronto Star reports that a Utah woman is
suing Google for more than $100,000 in damages, claiming its maps
function gave her walking directions that led her onto a major
highway, where she was struck by a car. Lauren Rosenberg sought
directions between two addresses in Utah about 3 kilometers apart and
the top result suggested that she follow a busy rural highway for
several hundred meters. The highway did not have sidewalks or any
other pedestrian-friendly amenities, and Rosenberg was struck by a
car. Rosenberg filed suit against both the driver of the car that
struck her and Google, claiming both carried responsibility in her
injury. Her lawyers claim Google is liable because it did not warn her
that the route would not offer a safe place for a pedestrian to walk.
Google has pointed out that the directions Rosenberg sought come with
a warning of caution for pedestrians, but Rosenberg claims that she
accessed the Maps function on her Blackberry mobile device, where it
did not include the warning.

Looking more closely, there is a sidewalk, which turns into a cycleway (
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/40967519), about 50 feet from the
roadway, on the southbound side which is the same side she was walking on.
And if she had been using the sidewalk while heading north on Main St, it
would have led her directly to that sidewalk.

  Did Google add their notice after the fact?

 *Walking directions are in beta.* Use caution – This route may be missing

Here's a case from NZ where something similar happened that didn't lead to
injury. Until this article was posted, Google Maps directed people through
Wellington's bus tunnel, a 1 way tunnel which barely has enough width for
buses to travel through.

http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/3552037/Google-maps-off-course-with-walk-through-bus-tunnel

At that incident Goolge's response was:

Google spokeswoman Annie Baxter said the walking directions search function
in Google Maps was still at an experimental phase.

We clearly advise people to use caution as routes might be missing
footpaths or pedestrian-friendly paths.

This implies that they they're undertaking a responsibility to notify people
when routes are generated. I guess if the BlackBerry version doesn't include
the disclaimer, there's an argument to say that Google didn't meet its
(self-imposed?) duty of care to the consumers.

Still, even if they breached the duty of care, the injured woman will still
need to establish that the breach was a cause of her injury.

I would say that her odds of winning the damages, or, for that matter, of 
having a court agree to hear the case at all, are pretty low.  If you are using 
a map of any sort, you are still expected to use common sense as well.  If a 
map tells you to drive through a road that turns out to be closed for repairs, 
or is one-way in the wrong direction, that doesn't give you an excuse to drive 
through the road anyway.

Wäre es nicht sinnvoll, wenn man für kleine Wendeschleifen mit baulicher

Für Renderer würde das unter anderem bedeuten, dass dort der Straßenname

Das Verstehen und Erfassen dieser ganzen Relationen ist so schon schwierig

vielleicht ist mein Verständnis vom TMC und von den 
Routing-Möglichkeiten schlicht zu laienhaft und leider auch durch keine 
praktische Erfahrung getrübt,
daher mal ein kleines Szenario kurz durchgespielt:

Der TMC-Location-Code 1 der Autobahn in Fahrtrichtung Norden steht an 
einem Node zwischen Abfahrt und Auffahrt der Anschlussstelle,
der TMC-Location-Code 2 der kreuzenden Straße steht an einem Node der 
Brücke zwischen den Anschlüssen.
Dies ist nach meinem Kenntnisstand ein weitverbreiteter Fall.

Im TMC kommt die Meldung Ausfahrt der Anschlussstelle in Fahrtrichtung 
Norden gesperrt.
Nach meiner laienhaften Vermutung z. B. mittels
a) einzelnem Location-Code 1 und Event-Code
b) vielleicht aber auch mit beiden Location-Codes in der Reihenfolge 1 - 2?

Aus diesen gegebenen Informationen kann das Routing also den 
motorway_link der Ausfahrt ermitteln und meiden?

Wobei das ja noch nicht 100% klar ist, ob die neue Lizenz tatsaechlich

Natuerlich ist es jedem Projektteilnehmer unbenommen, auf eigene Faust

unseres Projekts in der Oeffentlichkeit im Kopf behalten. Es hat in der 
Vergangenheit Aktionen Einzelner gegeben, die durchaus geeignet waren, 
unser Projekt als eine Ansammlung verbissener Geeks dastehen zu lassen - 
und dabei wollen wir doch vorallem die Botschaft es macht Spass, jeder 
kann mitmachen rueberbringen.

Die Data Working Group, in der ich auch mitarbeite, hat grundsaetzlich 
die Aufgabe, Lizenzverletzungen jeder Art zu untersuchen. Wir sind 
allerdings tendenziell eher mit Faellen beschaeftigt, in denen OSMer die 
Lizenz von anderen verletzen als umgekehrt ;-) ausserdem ist es 
utopisch, anzunehmen, eine Gruppe von Freiwilligen, die ab und zu eine 
Telefonkonferenz machen, koennte sich um jeden Fall kuemmern, in dem 
irgendwer irgendwo nicht richtig dazuschreibt, dass er Daten von OSM

jedem Land geben. Auf der SOTM wird es einen kleinen Beitrag von der 
Data Working Group geben, im Rahmen dessen auch diese Zukunft diskutiert

Und das vor dem Nichtraucherschutz immer mal wieder ein Raucher im

[Talk-de] motorway und motorway_link um desti nation-tag ergänzen

2010-05-31 Thread steffterra
Hallo liebe talk-de-comunity

ich bin relativ neu bei OSM (1 Jahr), und lese talk-de regelmäßig seit ca. 8 
Wochen. Nun möchte ich einen Vorschlag machen, der das Autobahnrouting und 
damit die Nutzung von OSM-Navi's wesentlich natürlicher gestalten könnte.

Wenn z.b. neben ref=A 7 noch der Tag destination=Kassel auf dem way vom 
motorway_link (nur Auffahrt) zusätzlich gesetzt werden würde, könnte ein 
Routing-Programm diesen Tag sehr leicht auswerten.
Stellenweise habe ich schon gesehen dass ref=A 7 Kassel getaggt wurde, was 
ich aber nicht für sinnvoll halte. Zustätzlich kann man sich noch überlegen, 
den Autobahn-way in entsprechender Richtung ebenfalls mit dem destination-tag 
auszustatten.

Vorteile: 
- Sofortige Information über die Richtung einer Auffahrt oder eine 
Autobhanabschnitts. Durch einfaches und schnelles Auslesen des Tags wäre es 
Routern/Navis sofort möglich zu bestimmen, in welche Richtung man unterwegs 
ist. Also z.b. in Richtung Kassel. Woher soll der Router sonst wissen, wohin 
dieser Autobahnabschnitt führt? Stadt-Polygone-auswerten und schauen, ob diese 
Autobahn diese durchkreuzt ist ungleich aufwendiger, als einfach den 
destination-Tag auszulesen.

- Einfachere Generierung von Auffahrts-Anweisungen an motorway_links:  Eine 
Abbiegeanweisung auf die A 7 Richtung Kassel ist mit diesem Tag deutlich 
schneller und weniger rechenintensiv zu erzeugen, als den Stadt-Polygon (s.o.) 
auszuwerten. Unnatürliche Anweisungen ohne Richtungsangabe jetzt abbiegen auf 
A 7  würden der Vergangenheit angehören.

Nachteile:
- sehe ich derzeit keine, da es sich um ein einfaches Tag handelt, das nicht 
kompliziert ist. 
- Das Wiki wäre auf 
- http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Tag:highway%3Dmotorway
- http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Tag:highway%3Dmotorway_link
- http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Autobahn
relativ einfach zu ergänzen.

Vorgehensweise: 

- an Auffahrten: als destination (also Richtung) sollte der Name der Stadt 
eingetragen werden, die auf dem blauen Auffahrtsschild steht

Beispiel:

highway=motorway_link
ref=A 1; E 22
destination=Lübeck
maxspeed=60
etc...

- auf der AB selbst: als destination sollte der Name der Stadt eingetragen 
werden, der zuoberst des blauen Autobahnschildes steht.

Beispiel:

highway=motorway
name=Lübeck - Stuhr
destionaion=Lübeck
lanes=4
maxspeed=100
etc...

Anmerkungen/Bedenken:

- Abfahrten benötigen keinen destination-tag, da hier ja schon durch 
motorway_junction:name=xyz der Name der Stadt enthalten ist, zu dem die Abfahrt 
gehört.
- der name-Tag des motorway ist nicht aussagekräftig bezüglich der Richtung, 
in der dieser way führt. Z.B. A 7 Ulm-Kassel IMHO ändert sich der Name nicht 
in A 7 Kassel-Ulm, wenn man die Gegenrichtung taggt - oder habe ich das im 
wiki übersehen? Der motorway_link wäre dennoch sinnvoll mit destination zu 
taggen.
- Richtigerweise werden jetzt manche sagen, dass man nicht für Anwendungen 
taggen soll. Das ist auch meine Meinung. Doch durch diesen Vorschlag würden 
keine gültigen OSM-Tagging-Regeln verbogen werden, um es routern einfacher zu 
machen. sondern der Informationsgehalt würde verbessert werden, der nicht nur 
Routern zugute kommen würde.

Freue mich über zahlreiches Feedback,

 Für Renderer würde das unter anderem bedeuten, dass dort der Straßenname
 nicht gerendert wird. Das sieht auf manchen Karten eh ziemlich komisch
 aus, wenn der Straßenname so gebogen dargestellt wird.

wenn Dich der gebogenene Name stört:

die Schlaufe einzeln mappen und den Namen einfach weglassen.

turning_circle=yes zusätzlich zum highway finde ich aber auch ok.

 Das ist nicht der Fall. Aber wenn Du ein Interface anbietest, mit dem

 auszugehen, dass die Leute sich dabei an der OSM-Karte orientieren - 
 z.B. jemand weiss, dass an der Ecke Bachstr/Goethestr ein Briefkasten

 kommt aus OSM, also Briefkasten = abgeleitetes Werk.
 
 Wenn man den Briefkasten anderswo herhat und nur ueber OSM anzeigt, ist 
 das was anderes.

Re: [Talk-de] Geoflags verwendet OSM-Daten

2010-05-31 Thread Alexander Matheisen
Hallo,

 Solang wir eine Lizenz haben, die den Leuten Vorschriften macht, sollten 
 wir uns m.E. damit zufriedengeben, dass die Leute die Lizenz einhalten, 
 anstatt selbst dann noch nach einer Gegenleistung zu fragen! Wie man 
 sieht, es es ja schwierig genug, die Lizenz einzuhalten; ich finde, dass 
 Geoflags es nicht korrekt macht, aber sie machen es besser als viele 
 andere OSM-Nutzer, die nicht mal dazusagen, wo die Daten herkommen.

Gegenleistung sollte man natürlich nicht vorschreiben, aber so wie es
bei skobbler funktioniert, gefällt es mir schon sehr gut. Die Fehler,
die die finden, melden sie an uns zurück, sozusagen als Gegenleistung
helfen sie uns bei der Verbesserung der Daten.
Die könnten ja auch einfach hingehen und die Fehler nur bei ihnen
beheben und uns nichts davon erzählen.

Relationen sind wichtig, um Zusammenhänge verstreuter oder aneinander gefügte

Der destination-tag ist jedoch einfach zu realisieren und tut imho keinem weh 
und kann viel einfacher ausgewertet werden, als eine (für diesen Zweck)

Also warum nicht ins wiki eintragen?

ich habe auch noch eine Frage zum ÖPNV-Schema:

aus der Wikiseite geht nicht so ganz hervor, in welcher Reihenfolge man
die Wege, Haltestellen und Haltepositionen ordnen soll, da man die Wege
nicht an den Haltestellen aufsplitten soll.

Ich habe es erstmal so gemacht:

-alle Wege in ihrer Reihenfolge bei der Befahrung der Linie
-alle Bushaltestellen mit ihren Stoppositionen, für jeden Halt immer so:
1. Halteposition 1
2. Haltestelle 1
3. Halteposition 2
4. Haltestelle 2

Ist das so richtig?
