[OSM-talk] Need some clarification on edits

2012-07-18 Thread Maarten Deen 

Hi,

I'm investigating area [1], and especially why the two unclassified 
ways called "Trappistenweg" and the track to the north connect to the 
motorway A74 (which is incorrect).
If I understand correctly, a grey checkbox in the history in JOSM means 
a non-agreeer to the CT. Those edits should be redacted, correct?
The nodes [2] and [3] where the Trappistenweg connects to the A74 are 
the first version and created by a non-agreeer. The bot has processed 
this area succesfully. Shouldn't these nodes be redacted? There are also 
ways in that area from the same user.


Furthermore: when contacting the user he said that there previously was 
a tunnel underneath the A74. I can't find this in the history of potlach 
1. Can someone confirm that this was or was not there?


The user also says he drew these ways a year ago which is hard to 
believe because the nodes and the changeset [4] were created on july 1st 
2012. He blames the redaction bot for this, but the redaction bot has 
not been running at that date?


[1] 


[2] 
[3] 
[4] 

Regards,
Maarten

Grey means they signed up after the new CT were the only ones, so
automatically accepted rather than choosing to.

Perhaps you could also try using a map program (like Garmin's MapSource 
or http://www.qlandkarte.org/) in connection with one of the bike maps 
(for example http://www.velomap.org).

I have installed the Program and i load the europe.osm.bz2 map. I open the map
in Maperitive and after few time come the message "The fil coult not be loaded:
Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown." Mean it that 2 GB
Ram not enough? When i unpacked the file is more as 50 gb. Must then load all 
countrys seperate?

Velomap is for offline use. Typically it is used with Garmin GPS devices
but you could also just use the software on your computer.

Re: [OSM-talk] Map and Programm for Offline

2012-07-18 Thread john whelan 
There is a Google mailing list for support maperit...@googlegroups.com

http://maperitive.net/

Recently there has been some discussion there on how to reduce the size of
off line maps.  Whichever software you use it is likely that it will want
to hold the data file in memory so I suspect you'll need to split up the
file.  .pbf format can help substantially over .osm format, removing tags
that won't be displayed such as source and author details can help as well.

What you need on the display at one time is a fairly small amount of data
so sp

Try it with a smaller data file.  Be aware that not all software that
manipulates the data files leaves it in a state that everything can use
it.  You need to be aware of XML and how it works sometimes to make sure
the headers are correct.

It should be simpler but it isn't and Maperitive is one of the better off
line solutions.

Sorry

Cheerio John

[OSM-talk] Submitting POI to OSM made easy

2012-07-18 Thread Jakub 




* On the position screen, dragging the marker is more intuitive than
clicking to set position.
I do not agree with this. ON toughscreen the dragdrop is less 
intuitive and sometimes very unusable. Please reserve dragdrop for 
moving the map around as is usually done on handhelds.


PS: However your idea is great, thanks

Great News! So, it should now work on the Polish Wikipedia? It doesn't
fully work now, there is no city outline on the map at
http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gliwice while the boundary is properly
displayed at http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gliwice

Is there something missing?

[OSM-talk] Note to users of overapss/xapi like services (mirrored download and such)

2012-07-18 Thread Toby Murray 
I noticed today that since the license bot is going full throttle, my
server hasn't been able to keep up with minutely diffs any more. Right
now I'm about 4 hours behind. My server isn't exactly optimized for
performance so this might not be affecting all users of minutely diffs
but please beware that the increased activity may have impacted some
3rd party services. If you are downloading data to edit from anywhere
but api.openstreetmap.org, please double check your source and verify
that it is up to date. I know both the jxapi and overpass are capable
of putting a timestamp in their response, if configured correctly.

[OSM-talk] finding redacted objects in JOSM

2012-07-18 Thread Martijn van Exel 
Hi all,
This may be obvious to many, but here it is anyway: to find redacted
objects in JOSM, hit ctrl-f and enter 'user:"OSMF Redaction Account"'
in the search field.
Obviously, this won't unearth deleted objects, but it does help you
locate polygons that got garbled because of deleted nodes, for
example.

I would guess that that plane is flying really low. Probably in 
approach to a landing.
