Make sure to test the actual droid phone + app to see how fast it can 
acquire a GPS lock and send it with the tweet or else it might be 
sending tweets without the GEO info
i guess the best way to save batt is to use the GPS and GPRS only every 
now and then.

what if theres no signal or bad gprs coverage?

Once you have something which can upload, you just figure out how to
display the logs online using a website or a 3rd party service.

Something like Sportstracklive or its competitors let you track yourself
live using a phone or similar device and display it live online, the
problem with constant upload is the battery drain, and well GPRS charges
but im sure an 1200 unlimited 3G subscription might offset that.

I know the developer of sportstracklive, he's a foreigner living the
philippines.

It's cool for live tracking as longs its not a security issue, and allow
people to comment or alert people as he passes by certain areas.

I know he walks during the day, is there a mobile device charges solar
unit :) or a really low powered GPS + 3g unit + solar power charger, or
some dynamo that will charge the phone as he walks :)

Hi firends,

through the 6 major islands of the Visayas Region, starting from Allen
Samar and will end in Boracay Island, Aklan. This adventure will
benefit children with cancer under the Philippine Children's Medical
Center (tawid kalusugan program for indigent patients). With this i

But this is pretty much what the Globe GPS tracking system does, except it 
sends the co-ordinates by SMS, I understand. And given that the walk is for a 
good cause, I'm sure they'd be approachable and would a) give you a free GPS 
tracker plan and b) help you promote the cause. 

I'd definitely second the solar charger idea.

They were not just jamming the GPS signals, if you read it all he was jamming 
all communication channels to test if the two ships could work together.

Of course other things went down, eg phones.. Because they were also jammed to 
stop the sailors using phones to call ship to ship..

He has taken a small thing out of the whole picture and said it caused all the 
problems..

Tests like that should not be done near shore as they will take out civilian 
methods of communication.  

GPS will not stop a mobile phone.. from operating..

A Jammer on the CELL frequencies will.. same as any other radio based links 
will also go down if they are jammed..

GPS is more and more needed but the ATM's themselves do not have gps units.. 
Unless they were mobile ATMS..

ATMs are using GPS because of the timestamps simply because atomic

it interesting because they found a use of GPS signal other than
positioning.  However, I felt a certain degree on uneasiness for our

Re: [talk-ph] GPS article

2011-03-07 Thread tutubi
well, with the Philippine ATM setup, jamming GPS won't jam ATM machines in
Pinas.

I don't think there's a correlation with the ATMs and clock jamming, out of
sync time for machines will only be a reconciliation problem (the payment
back-office side) of banks but ATM transactions won't be affected. Must be a
hypothesis without any real proof GPS jamming did it...encryption of ATMs
also use 3DES and not any time-based algorithm.

Jamming the GPS will only make the signal unavailable but the time of the
NTP primary server (network time protocol, who gets signals from the GPS
satellite) will still be the same, and if even altered may alter system and
network time but won't make ATM network go offline

anyway, here's an interesting news from Google Maps
http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/breakingnews/infotech/view/20110308-324118/Google-Maps-now-helps-users-beat-traffic-jams

this is one of my future nice-to-have

This is only possible if google can collect traffic data.  I don't
know if such exist in the Philippines.

This topic was also discussed in brief during the garmin hackday.   At
the moment, we don't use any the max_speed tag in the Garmin map for
the simple reason that we have very little data.  Moreover, max_speed
doesn't tell you the actual speed conditions.

that are alive in the community today. I also like it for its
manageable volume. Lengthy debates on topics that have their own
designated lists - be it dev, local lists *or* legal - make it less
manageable and are bound to get people to lose interest and
unsubscribe. I think that would be a shame.


 The fact that the question appears each month, from somebody new, shows
 me that the question never gets answered in a satisfactory manner.
 There are still a large number of unanswered questions.

What it shows is that there's always going to be people interested in
the license questions that do not know where to turn to for an answer.
This list gets a lot of those type of questions, because of its
catch-all topic description. And lots of times, people are directed to
the right place to get an answer. This is no different, so why make it
sound like it is?

Hello,

We opened registration for the State of the Map Europe 2011 in
Vienna today. Your early bird conference pass for all three days comes at
EUR  60. We suggest payment by bank transfer (no additional costs in
European SEPA area). On payments by PayPal, we need to add an additional
surcharge of EUR 3.

Get your early bird conference pass here:

   https://sotm-eu.org/registration

We received a lot of interesting submissions already. There will be
keynotes by Steve Coast (founder of OpenStreetMap) and Muki Haklay
(Researcher at UCL, London). Representatives of Mapnik, the
Humanitarian OSM Team (HOT), OpenSeaMap and many others will join us.
Take your chance to present and discuss your ideas with these well-

I don't have an idea how these highways look like (besides some

country specific criteria the US community set up and documented on
the wiki (restricted access) you might think about tagging them as
trunk roads or change the country specific definition for motorways in

another option would be to tag them as bicycle=yes and
highway=motorway, even if this might seem redundant to you, it doesn't
to many other mappers (as you can see by the fact, that most routers
will by default not route you on motorways by bike).

Hi,

Experience teaches us that unless something consumes a not so common tag, it

Meanwhile if the MQ bike router would know about except=bicycle and someone
complains about it not ignoring a certain turn restriction, we can tell them
to fix the tagging / have the tagging fixed. If it would ignore all turn
restrictions when doing bikerouting, then there is no way of creating valid
routes in countries where the turn restrictions are valid for bicycles.



Is this tag supported in MQ routing?


Oh, on what is your assumption based that in most countries turn restrictions
don't apply to bicycles? Did you check may countries?



OK, my assumption was wrong. I was just annoyed by the fact that the 
router detoured me around the crossing I always ride over straightly. 
The situation: Cars (and all other vehicles using the roadway) are not 
allowed to go straight on. BUT there is a combined cycle track/sidewalk 
next to it, with its own crossing and its own traffic signals. The turn 
restriction does not legally apply to cyclists and pedestrians crossing 
the road this way.
This is the problem: When turn restrictions are practically circumvented 
by separate cycle tracks that are not mapped, their application for 
bicycle routing is based on nothing (hence my suggestion to enforce it 
only with cycleway=lane, which indicates that bikes do use the roadway).

I believe the board (or possibly lwg) has discussed it before, as Im

Completely agree, but to go even further:
Same holds for sidewalks, too: different surface, different width, 
different restriction (in Germany no bicycles allowed unless signed 
otherwise), turn restrictions not as a legal issue, but sometimes as an 
issue of barriers (If I'm not able to cross due to dangerous traffic, 
due to high curbs and my wheelchair etc. I can not turn left from the 
right sidewalk, even if there is a street to the left).

It's not an error, it's a matter of detail (micromapping). I do map such 
ways separately--but lots of mappers don't. I believe it is still much 
more common to add a cycleway=track to the road instead, which is a

it is an error as soon as not all attributes on the road apply to the
parallel cycleway as well (like you can see in the example you gave
above), otherwise I agree it is only a lack of precision and detail.
It is also quite common to not have the cycleways separate, because
there are users that enforce their way of tagging. I had separate
cycleways removed by certain users (and they are till now, because I
don't want to try to become the DonQuichotte of separate cycleways)
and when I wrote to them they replied: there was not enough space for
all those ways, so I simplified the situation. :( They didn't want to
undo their edits.

Are you sure. There is a paramtere named pixel height which is assumed
to be constant along the image. In Mercator projection this isn't true
pixels in the north represent less degrees than those in the south.

This shouldn't be mapped in the main OpenStreetMap database. OSM is for
mapping real, verifiable locations, not hypotheticals.

Rather, you should set up your own OSM install on your local server, and
seed it with the existing OSM data. You can then use the usual tools to talk
to this rather than to osm.org. There's lots of documentation on the wiki,
or you can ask on the d...@openstreetmap.org list.

Hmmm.

First find the editing program that you want your public to use.  Then
segregate your OSM base map from your scratchpad area for your
planning.  Then publish your reference works as they are created and
discussed.

As Richard Fairhurst said, you won't contribute that fictional data to
OpenStreetMap.  You can create your own OSM stack and run it locally.
Or simply capture the .osm files locally.  You could capture
background images (responsibly please! no scraping.) then edit over
them with graphics tools or even pen and paper.

Publishing your works is simplest if you license your proposal maps
CC-By-SA as your OSM base maps will be CC-By-SA.  If not, include your
licensing details as well as Base map image © OpenStreetMap and
Contributors CC-By-SA with links for the OSM web site and CC-By-SA
license page.

[OSM-talk] Android app Open GPS Tracker and direct trace upload

2011-03-07 Thread René De Groot
Hi all,


I have a GPS logger in the Android Market and a few days ago I updated it to
a new version which includes uploading GPX files directly to
http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/gpx/create.

The app is called Open GPS Tracker can be found at
https://market.android.com/details?id=nl.sogeti.android.gpstracker

The source and app are available under GPLv3 license and to draw OSM map
tiles the osmdroid library is used. Google Maps is also a possibility but
this blocks the OSM traces upload feature. I've had the app in the Market
for about a year and a half now and managed to get the app fairly stable and
pretty efficient. I hope people here might find the app useful their gps
logging and osm data collecting on Android. If you have any suggestions or
idea's please let me know at rcgroot(a)gmail.com or submit an issue at

 Hoi,

 Ik geef weer een zwengel aan het weekbulletin. Het is wel een hoop
 gezwengel. Ik vind het zelf leuk om te doen maar vind niet altijd de tijd.
 Nu weer wel, maar ik zie dat er al een paar weken bijna niks gebeurd is.

 Wat is de beste vorm hiervoor? Een onregelmatig bulletin? Gewoon posten op
 de blog zodra je iets te melden hebt? Misschien moeten we het blog
 laagdrempeliger maken (een posterousblog zoals opengeodata.org is - daar kun
 je gewoon naartoe mailen?)

 Ik ga nu in elk geval weer wat nieuwtjes posten :)

[Talk-br] como fazer mapa de rotas

2011-03-07 Thread Yuriê Baptista César
Olá pessoal,
estou querendo fazer um mapa de rotas de bicicletas desse tipo:
http://www.ridethecity.com/ e to sem idéia de por onde começar.

já tenho as rotas traçadas em um mapa de papel.
estou georreferenciando as rotas (na verdade estou `desenhando as rotas no
mapsource na ferramenta desenho de pista).

a grande questão é que devo fazer para jogar elas no openstreetmap.org para
poder pesquisar as rotas.

eu vi que tem os programas específicos do OSM, não sei qual é o mais
indicado para o meu objetivo.

também queria aproveitar o trabalho e enviar as rotas para o projeto Track
Source, daí queria saber qual a melhor forma de economizar trabalho.

quem puder ajudar eu agradeço imensamente.

abraços,
Yuriê

[Talk-de] Anfrage von Radio Bremen

2011-03-07 Thread Matthias Blazejak
Hallo Zusammen,

Radio Bremen hat bei mir die Anfrage gestellt, ob folgendes Szenario
kurzfristig (bis 21.03.) umsetzbar sei. Vielleicht kann jemand eine Idee
aufzeigen, wie man das machen kann -- ansonsten wird's wohl mit G**gle
geloest.

Fuer ein Gewinnspiel auf der Seite von Radio Bremen soll eine
interaktive Karte oder ein interaktiver Kartenausschnitt bereitgestellt
werden, in den die Hoerer ohne *Authentifizierung* Punkte setzen koennen
sollen. Dies kann eine selbst gehostete Loesung sein, oder ein Service
ueber eine fremde Seite. Die fremde Seite soll nicht geschuetzt sein, so
dass Leute auch zufaellig auf das Spiel aufmerksam werden koennen. Der
Gedanke an Spammer ist Radio Bremen bewusst und sie wollen das
organisatorisch loesen -- also durch regelmaessige Kontrolle der
Eintraege. Gehen wir erstmal davon aus, dass alle Voraussetzungen für
eine Loesung geschaffen werden koennen. Hat irgendjemand eine Idee?

Bitte keinen neuen/anderen Key, sondern maximal einen zusätzlichen Tag.
Damit bleibt so eine Lösung kompatibel.

Schön gemacht.

Wenn es sowas out of the box für OSM gäbe,
kann ich mir viele Interessenten vorstellen:
- Jugendgruppen
- Bürgerinitiativen
- Vereine
- ...
Punkte kommentiert und mit Bild über eine Web-Schnittstelle in eine DB 
eintragen und mit Popup-Fenster auf der Karte anzeigen:

dafür gibt es tausende Szenarien.

[Talk-de] Schutzgebiete (protected_area): zugehörigen Schlüssel ändern?

2011-03-07 Thread tshrub

Hallo,

bezüglich eines Tags gibt es einen m.E. nachvollziehbaren Einwand als 
irreführend/misleading:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Tag:boundary%3Dprotected_area#Misleading_tag_names
protect_id sollte echten Bezeichnern (IDs) vorbehalten bleiben.

Damit wären die bisher vergebenen protect_id umzunennen (in 
protect_type). protect_id könnte man dann z.B. als Bezeichner zum 
direkten Aufruf per Url nutzen ...



Was haltet ihr davon?


Und: kann das ggf. jemand machen?
Sprich: ändere alle protect_id die in Verbindung mit protected_area 
gesetzt wurden und im Zahlenraum 1 bis 99 liegen.
(einige protect_id liegen außerhalb diese Bereichs und müssen nat. so 
bleiben).


Dann könnte ich protect_id entsprechend in der o.g. wiki ändern.

Danke,

[Talk-de] Deutsche Übersetzung Nomantim und Webseite

2011-03-07 Thread Matthias Versen

Hallo !

Mir sind 2 Dinge aufgefallen und ich hoffe das einer diese Fehler 
beseitigen könnte.


Fall a)
Wenn ich auf http://www.openstreetmap.com die Deutsche Hauptseite 
bekomme und links im Menü auf Dokumentation klicke, dann lande ich im 
englischen Wiki anstelle des Deutschen.


b) Suche ich eine Wohngebietsstraße in Nominatim wie z.b. 
bahnhofstraße, Lemgo, dann erhalte ich als Ausgabe:

Ortsgebiet Bahnhofstraße, Brake, Lemgo, Lippe, Regierungsbezirk .

Es hat einer für highway=residential und landuse=residential die 
gleiche Übersetzung eingepflegt.



Ich habe keine Ahnung wo mann den Fall a) lösen kann und Fall b) 
erfordert einen speziellen Übersetzungs-Wiki Account den man erst 
beantragen muss.Der Aufwand für eine Änderung erscheint mir allerdings 
zu extrem, vielleicht hat schon jemand dort einen Account ?

Fußgänger nicht, Fahrzeuge mit Anliegen?
m.E. reicht das vehicle=destination aus.

Der Privatweg hat nicht grundsätzlich mit access zu tun, sondern sagt
aus, dass die Straße nicht der Öffentlichkeit gehört (und in diesem
Fall nur dann mit Fahrzeugen befahren werden darf, wenn man ein
Anliegen hat). Ein Verbot access=private nur dann setzen, wenn da
steht: Zutritt verboten oder ähnliches (oder ein Tor da ist).
Privatwege müssen oft zugänglich sein (Wegelast), obwohl sie nicht der
Öffentlichkeit gehören.

Da steht aber kein echtes Zeichen 250 sondern eins, dass von Anwohnern selbst
aufgestellt und modifiziert worden ist.

Ich denke schon, dass die Interpretation access=privat fuer diesen Fall passt.
Denn letztendlich haben die Anwohner das Schild aufgestellt, um auszudruecken,
dass sie a) dort Hausrecht haben und b) man da nicht lang soll.
Ich glaube nicht, dass sie dabei grossartige Ueberlegungen angestellt haben,
dass Zeichen 250 eigentlich nur fuer Fahrzeuge gilt. Und ich denke auch nicht,
dass man aus der nicht STVO-konformen Beschilderung ein Nutzungsrecht fuer
Fussgaenger ableiten kann.

Also darf am oberen Kreuzungspunkt keine Restriction stehen.


 Wenn ich dann an der

Ist im konkreten Fall erlaubt. Aber nur von C nach B!

nein, es geht um die Verbindung zwischen den beiden, die ein Way ist.
Bei getrennten Fahrbahnen muss man gar nichts machen, das sind ja
sowieso Einbahnstraßen.

Eigentlich geht es mir darum, dass via als Node immer ausreicht,
soweit ich das im Moment überblicke. Wenn es doch Stellen gibt, wo es
ein way sein muss, dann würde mich das interessieren. Der way macht
m.E. Probleme, wenn man ihn danach nochmal weiter aufsplitten muss
(oder man hat dann halt mehrere Via-Wege).

Das kann man wohl so pauschal auch nicht sagen (mal ganz abgesehen davon, dass
es sich hierbei ja auch um kein echtes sondern um ein abgewandeltes
Verkehrsschild handelt). Tatsache ist aber, dass das Schild da steht. Ob zu
Recht oder nicht, koennen wir nicht wissen und brauchen wir auch nicht 
entscheiden.

 Darum ging es mir auch nicht, es ging darum, dass Fußgängerverkehr
 u.U. vom Besitzer geduldet werden muss, auch wenn ihm die Straße

Es kann natuerlich sein, dass der Besitzer theoretisch Fussgaengerverkehr dulden
muesste. Aber m.E. soll das Schild ausdruecken, dass er z.Z. keinen
Fussgaengerverkehr duldet.
Bei einem Gebaeude tragen wir ja auch nicht ein, ob das rechtmaessig erbaut
worden ist, sondern wir tragen ein, dass es da ist. Also ist die Frage hier auch
nicht, ob der Eigentuemer das Schild zu Rech aufgestellt hat, sondern was das
Schild bedeutet.

was meinst Du mit soll ausdrücken ? Wenn er nicht will, dass
Fussgänger den Weg benutzen, und dazu auch nicht verpflichtet ist,
dann kann er das ja da hinschreiben. (Z.B. Durchgang für Fußgänger
verboten). Das hat er aber nicht getan. Darum sollten wir auch nicht
in unsere Daten eintragen was er vielleicht gemeint haben könnte,

Mir sind 2 Dinge aufgefallen und ich hoffe das einer diese Fehler
beseitigen könnte.

Fall a)
Wenn ich auf http://www.openstreetmap.com die Deutsche Hauptseite
bekomme und links im Menü auf Dokumentation klicke, dann lande ich im
englischen Wiki anstelle des Deutschen.


Habe ich hier behoben:
http://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Osm:Layouts.wiki_url/deaction=editloadgroup=out-osm-siteloadtask=optional

Das muss jetzt nur noch auf die Live-Seite geladen werden, worum ich 
mich im Laufe der Woche kümmern werdne.



b) Suche ich eine Wohngebietsstraße in Nominatim wie z.b.
bahnhofstraße, Lemgo, dann erhalte ich als Ausgabe:
Ortsgebiet Bahnhofstraße, Brake, Lemgo, Lippe, Regierungsbezirk .

Es hat einer für highway=residential und landuse=residential die
gleiche Übersetzung eingepflegt.

Fall b) erfordert einen speziellen Übersetzungs-Wiki Account den man erst
beantragen muss.


Wo gibt es denn die Nominatim-Übersetzung?

Conosco la pagina con gli user id che hanno accettato il cambio di
licenza, ma come faccio, partendo dalla pagina di un utente, a sapere se
ha accettato o meno la nuova licenza?

Per un singolo utente, se inserisci lo username in questa pagina [1] puoi
vedere sull'ultima riga se ha accettato la licenza.

si, quello  una limitazione perch costa troppo di fare per ogni

Penso che quello che interessi di più non sia tanto sapere per ogni singolo 
revisore se ha accettato o meno, quanto sapere se ne esiste almeno uno che non 
ha accettato, perché questo è sufficiente affinchè tutte le ulteriori revisioni 
vengano perse.

Si potrebbe offrire un'opzione per conoscere solo questa informazione. Così, 
partendo a controllare dal primo revisore, si può fermare la ricerca appena si 
trova un revisore che non ha accettato, evitando di usare ulteriormente il db.

Esatto: è quello che fa il programmino che ho scritto e del quale ne 
parlavo un mesetto fa. Dice per ogni oggetto l'ultimo numero della 
revisione odbl compilant (zero se l'autore non ha accettato la nuova 
licenza). Per fare questo si basa sui dati provenienti da un full planet 
inseriti in un database locale ad hoc. Se voi ti posso far avere 
qualcosa, almeno per una zona che ti interessa particolarmente.

secondome è troppo poco. AFAIK non è ancora deciso come si passa in
dettaglio alla nuova licenza.

Esempi:
Metti che un utente (NA=notaccepted) inserisce un nodo in un way
esistente. Dopo un altro utente (A=accepted) aggiunge altri tags al
way. Perché dovremmo perdere i tags del utente A?

Oppure un utente NA mette il nome ad una strada senza nome, ma dopo un

Il problema è che il database di OSM contiene qualche milione di

O si riesce a stabilire un algoritmo per decidere cosa migrare e cosa
no, o non si riesce a fare il cambio di licenza.

Cosa vuol dire corregge il nome perché era sbagliato?
A. L'utente NA mette il nome Strada regionale 1, l'utente A corregge
in Strada Regionale 1
B. L'utente NA mette il nome Strada regionale 1, l'utente A corregge

Nel caso A. l'utente A sta chiaramente facendo una versione derivata

+1000

Non volevo generare flames.
Tanto per chiarire il mio approccio è il seguente: analizzo la history 
di un oggetto. La history dei nodi dipende solo dal nodo stesso. La 
history dei percorsi dipende dalla history dell percorso E dalla history 
di ogni singolo nodo che la compone. Idem per le relations. Il programma 
DISTINGUE se l'oggetto in se è ODBL e se tutti gli oggetti che lo 
compongono sono ODBL.
Io volevo iniziare a discutere del programmino (che fa ANCHE altre cose, 
sempre relative al cambio licenza) dopo il 1 aprile, in modo da agire su 
un database nel quale gli utenti nonODBL non ci potranno + metterci le 
mani. Tanto per darvi un'idea il software permette, oltre al resto, una 
volta chiariti i criteri di migrazione alla nuova licenza, di ricavare 
l'aspetto grafico della mappa ripulita.
E' OVVIO che finché non ci sarà una proposta ufficiale di algoritmo 
ogni discussione è, imho, abbastanza inutile.

Davide, fantastico. Ottimo lavoro, stavo già notando tutti i confini
come apparivano sulla mappa!
L'unico dubbio che ho è sulla relazione madre. Quella non è
semplicemente tutto il confine di Roma?
quindi:

type=multipolygon (oppure boundary, uguale)
boundary=administrative
admin_level=8
name=Comune di Roma

con i vari municipi role=outer
il nodo di Roma (vicino campidoglio) con ruolo admin_centre

non sono sicuro di questo, perché non ho mai creato relazioni del tipo boundary.

Re: [Talk-se] import av naturreservat

2011-03-07 Thread Joel Torsson

Hej,

Jag har nu importerat naturreservaten i alla län som inte redan var 
importerade. En sammanställning kan ses här: 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Sweden/Nature_conservation


Angående dubbletter så gjorde jag en snabb koll genom varje län när jag 
importerade men har säkert missat en del. Så jag håller med föregående 
mejlskrivare att om ni upptäcker fel/dubbletter så rätta gärna till dem. :)

Dessvärre fanns det redan vissa reservat mappade sedan tidigare, och
vissa dubbletter har uppstått. Jag har fixat de jag hittat i mitt närområde.

Vänligen kika över om det dykt upp ytterligare dubbletter på naturreservat:

 He puesto en el apartado 'Conversión' de la wiki comentada antes un archivo
 OSM para la costa Corine de cada isla. También tienes en
 http://javiersanp.dhis.org/clcimport/costa.osm.zip la línea de costa OSM

 OSM) en sendas capas de Josm, junto con el WMS de la OrtoExpress. Si
 decides
 reemplazar un tramo de costa OSM con los datos de Corine, lo cortas y lo
 pasas a la otra capa (Shift+M), lo reemplazas por el original en las
 relaciones en las que este participe.  Mucho ojo con lo que hacemos, no
 vayamos a provocar una inundación :)

Una cosa Jonay. No utilices el fichero costa.osm.zip que te decía. Al
contener todas las islas puede provocar conflictos con otras partes ya

 Hi Dan,
 
 Your procedure sounds pretty similar to mine, and working around Kamloops 
 likely is equivalent in terms of the kinds of features we see.  

It's nice to see that the method I've been following isn't totally out in left 
field :-)

 
 You probably do this as well, but before running the validator, I step around 
 the edge of the import and connect streams, powerlines, and anything else 
 that I think needs connecting.  The auto-fix on duplicate nodes just seems to 
 merge the nodes but doesn't combine the ways.  As you, I very rarely have 
 found the need to import a road as previous GeoBase or other imports have 
 already provided the same information. 

Earlier on in my editing, I hadn't thought of connecting features around the 
edge of an import, though I've been trying to do it lately.  One of these days, 
I'm going to have to go back to areas I already worked on, to do exactly that.

 
 I simplify some features as well (streams and some lake shorelines mostly) 
 but I try to remember to simplify before merging the selection onto the OSM 
 layer.  Simplifying later often gives the warning that you are deleting nodes 
 outside the uploaded data area.  If I get a conflict, this is where it 
 happens. 

I hadn't been paying much attention to where I did the simplification - thanks 
for the tip!  I'll be sure to do it before merging into my working OSM layer, 
and see if that helps.

 
 You do, however, seem to have much better luck than I have had on failed 
 imports.  On 4 or 5 different occasions, an upload has hung (sometimes for 
 hours) and a cancel has resulted in nodes only (no way information) being 
 uploaded to the server.  This behavior is quite consistent.  The result is 
 6-8,000 isolated nodes blasted across the import block.  I've then had to 
 download the area from OSM and manually remove each node.  Rather 
 frustrating.  I don't know the ins and outs of the OSM backend, but could you 
 be picking up errors at that point?  JOSM never seems to sort it out for 
 me.   :(


I guess I have been luckier than you, in a way.  I've only noticed one import 
so far that's failed spectacularly, which got me to figuring out how to use the 
reverter plugin.  I think it saved my bacon in that situation - the idea of 
manually going to find and delete thousands of isolated nodes is a process I 
really wanted to avoid at all costs.

But James Ewen has noticed some missing roads in an area I was working on 
southeast of Edmonton that I'm starting to think may have been the result of a 
flaky upload (at least one of those missing roads is one I remember working on 
specifically).  What makes me worried is that I didn't even realize there was a 
problem in this area until he noticed those roads (I had assumed that JOSM had 
just fixed things when I retried afterwards) - in some ways, thousands of 
isolated nodes would have been preferable, since at least I'd have noticed 
there was a problem.

I think I'll be reserving any OSM editing days for those when my Internet 
connection is as stable as possible.

Re: [Talk-ca] Mapping cut blocks in wooded areas

2011-03-07 Thread Connors, Bernie (SNB)
Bryan,

I would have to agree with your argument.  I have some 
knowledge of the forestry GIS that is used here in NB and it would be a 
daunting task to include cut blocks in the forest.  There is more than enough 
OSM work in Canada just getting the road network built it would be 
counterproductive to spend a lot of time on forest cut blocks.

I would tag it as natural=wood as I don’t feel that there is any distinction 
between a 2-year old stand and a 250 year old stand in terms of being wood, or 
forest.  They are merely different ages.  Licensees maintain incredibly 
accurate and up-to-date maps that indicate the different openings and their 
respective stages of development.  They have dedicated GIS guys that maintain 
these maps as fast as techies bring it in.  I suppose, in theory, an OSM tag 
could be used to indicate the stage of opening development, but one would 
require the date of harvesting, the date of planting and the dates of the 
silviculture surveys to accurately assess the phase.  Unless you are a forester 
you won’t have access to that information and would be guessing.   I just feel 
that attempting to seriously map out such temporary features accurately goes 
way beyond the ability of OSM (at this point, at least).

I very much see your point which is why I was asking for some direction.  I 
guess it comes down to whether the map should reflect what we see at some given 
snapshot in time, or whether it is reflecting the overall landuse scheme.  In 
short, while standing in the middle of a clear-cut, would it be more accurate 
that my map show that spot as wooded or not wooded?

RE: cut-blocks



As someone who has spent done time as a forest technician, I strongly advise 
against mapping forestry activity.  Cut block spatial data changes daily and 
any images used to trace are out of date.  There are literally tens of 
thousands of clear cuts in British Columbia alone and there is absolutely no 
way OSM mappers would be able to keep up with changes.  Keep in mind that most 
clearcuts on crown land (and in some cases, private land) are temporary 
openings in various stages forest development.  A 2 year old stand is just as 
much a forest as a 25 year old free-to-grow stand or a 250 year old stand of 
timber.  I believe that mapping a privately held ‘Christmas’ tree farm would be 
pertinent, but these are radically different from commercial forestry openings.



I would also advise extreme caution in using images to map forest development 
roads unless are working on a high traffic mainline.  Many spur roads are in 
various stages of deactivation.  It may look like a road from the outdated 
image, but it may have been completely deactivated and replanted.  A site 
inspection is the only way to be sure.

Hi Samuel,



About tagging forested areas, I would use landuse=forest only if it is obvious 
on the field that the area is managed/harvested, as for landuse=orchard or 
landuse=vineyard. We have a lot of Christmas tree plantations in the area and I 
map them as landuse=forest because it is obvious on the imagery and on the 
field.



If it is difficult to determine if an area is under timber lease or not, 
because it looks the same, I would keep it natural=wood...



About Cut blocks, I would map the hole they create that wooded area.  If the 
area is replanted, then some OSM contributor will remove the hole you map in 
10-20 years from now!



Mapping the reality is the best we can do and because the reality changes over 
time, we can keep mapping !-)
