Re: [OSM-talk] Spoken street names

2016-08-17 Thread Nick Hocking
I have tried OsmAnd and Magic Earth on Android and Magic Earth on IOs and
they seem to work well, althouth Magic Earth did some crazy routing.  I
will compare the same route on OsmAnd Magic Earth and Garmin (OSM maps) and
OsmR to see if it is a data problem or routing issue.

I still haven't got Navmii to use TTS on Windows-phone but have contacted
the vendor.

I tried Mapfactor on windows-phone but couldn't get TTS to work. - will try
again tonight on windows-phone and android.

There is also Mapfactor Navigator [1], they do have a free version as
well.I didn't like their "announcements" for highway exists as much as
OsmAnd's.

p.s. I find spoken street names not so interesting. In Belgium (and
many countries around it) the street names are only indicated within
the street itself, so after you made the turn. It would be better if
the destination tags where spoken all the time, not only on
higways/motorways.

  Maybe because it has a nickname CRAPS.ME and lots of mappers hate it? :-)

Interesting tool. 

Searching for Data Centers in OSM, I observed inconsistencies with 
building=[industrial, commerce, office] and no tag specific the Data centers. I 
myself have added a Data center in the past but did not find an appropriate tag 
to describe it. 

To facilitate collaboration, I suggest that you provide tags for each feature 
and point to relevant wiki pages.

Hi folks,

with Ben Dalton, I'm happy to properly launch The New Cloud Atlas
project at http://newcloudatlas.org

I've written a blog post to explain it in more detail:
https://thinkwhere.wordpress.com/2016/08/17/the-new-cloud-atlas-mapping-the-physical-infrastructure-of-the-internet/

It's a project to collect and make a map to better understand what
"The Internet" means, physically and geographically. The site has a
tweaked iD editor with custom telecoms presets, it creates a couple of
map tilesets showing these features from OSM, with clickable features
on the map.

We encourage you to map your local data centres, street cabinets,
telephone exchanges, telephone poles, manhole covers and more!

Telecoms features in OSM are not consistently mapped with regards to
each other which could provide an opportunity for some consolidation
or making new taxonomies. I've created WikiProject Telecoms to help
with this tagging discussion:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Telecoms

Cheers and I look forward to your comments!

Tim

Forgot mentioning it is sold as a premium feature. Sorry.
Could not try it.

Hi Tim,

This is really impressive, can't wait to test this special instance of iD :)
The road you went along since early 2015 brings a lot of positive things

Telecom tags consistency needs to be tidier, especially for towers, masts,
poles or whatever.
Your tools may help a lot to do so and find missing objects.

I remember of a talk about man_made=MDF and imho it doesn't sound to be the
best solution.

Because main distribution frame is only a particular component inside a
whole central office.
http://www.infos-reseaux.com/photos/image.php?id=190


MDF can be mapped with dedicated features if mappers know exactly where
they are in (sometimes) big buildings.
The example you show is a building hosting many different kind of devices
and equipment and we'd better call them "central office".
telecom=central_office and building=yes (at least).

That's the point of this proposal
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Telecom_local_loop



All the best

For Germany all phone exchanges from Deutsche Telekom have been imported
some time ago but you dont seem to show them.

This is an example for Exchange "ONKZ 5241 ASB 4":

I've already tried Navmii on my windows phone. I like it a lot but it
doesn't do TTS (Spoken Street names) - as far as I can tell.

I've tried scout on my iPhone (a few years ago - overseas) . From memory,
it did TTS but let itself down in late turn announcements. Also you can't
purchase the software and I'm not interested in renting it.

Osmand only seems to work on Android so I'll have to go out and buy a cheap
android phone tomorrow.

This is all so I can recommend OSM to others. For myself, when driving I
use a garmin device with routable OSM maps from openmapchest and of course
the garmins all have TTS. When walking I don't require TTS so any software
is good enough.
