I don’t believe this is an acceptable comment in the OpenStreetMap context, it

Re: [OSM-talk] OpenStreetMap Carto release v4.17.0

[dcapillae]

Thank you so much!

It is a pleasure to see the public bookcase on the map. It would be great to
have an icon soon to see the mobile library (amenity=mobile_library) also on
OSM Carto. Unfortunately there aren't many on the map yet.

Greetings from Spain.

Regards,
Daniel

[OSM-talk] Survey on global and local communities in OpenStreetMap

[Dorothea Kazazi]

Hello,

The following survey on global and local communities in OpenStreetMap 
was developed by board members. The survey is not quantitative and its 
aim is to stimulate  discussions in local communities and at the Local 
Chapters Congress at SotM.


https://osmf.limequery.org/428835

~ The survey will run for two weeks.
~ Only one question is mandatory: "How can we share your answers?".

There is more information on the scope of the survey and approach on the 
opening page.


warm greetings,

Dorothea

Re: [OSM-talk] `computer_vision_assisted=yes` changeset tag?

[marc marc]

Hello,

I use a lot of such datas (traffic sign from mapillary via osmose)
I review it (viewing the picture myself) before any change to avoid some 
false positive and to improve localisation.
who 'll made what if I add computer_vision_assisted changeset tag ?
for stat ? why not.
but in this case, it may also be needed to add humain_reviewed,
humain_improved, integration_tools and so...

currently I put source=mapillary source:date
I see a lot of mappers unable to fill a source tag,
for ex because a major editor doesn't promote enought a changeset
source tag. it would probably be best to start by having at least
the source tag everywhere before pushing for more secondary tags

Hi Dorothea

There's a typo in the section on communication channels, the first
occurrence of "other mailing lists" is mangled.

@the designers of the survey. The question wrt remote mapping would seem
to be designed to achieve a specific result. While a truthful answer on
my behalf would require a yes, because now and then I'll map remote and
if it is simply reverting a changeset on request of a remote mapper, but
that doesn't mean that a) I in general think it is a good idea, b) it is
any significant part of my contributions.

I agree, mapillary can detect all sorts of temporary signs such as speed limits 
through roadworks meaning they will always require a human with local knowledge 
to review.

Re: [OSM-talk] OpenTrailView - updates

[Nick Whitelegg]

Hi,


The reason for this is that there isn't a 'next' panorama as such; rather than 
a linear sequence of panoramas, it's a network, so at a junction there might be 
multiple routes to follow - it uses the underlying OSM way network to navigate.


It's in the todo list to provide Mapillary (and StreetView) like arrows 
superimposed on the ground, but this isn't implemented just yet.

Hi,


To follow up my post of a couple of months ago, I have made a few updates to 
OpenTrailView, a StreetView-like application which allows users to upload 360 
panoramas which will then be automatically linked using underlying OSM ways, 
allowing users to navigate from panorama to panorama.


It now allows you to login with your OSM credentials, removing the need to 
create a separate account - in fact I have removed the signup facility so if 
you signed up before, you should now login using your OSM username instead.


It also has a facility to allow you to set the position of a panorama if EXIF 
latitude and longitude metadata is not present. This can be done either by 
clicking on the map to position the panorama, or by using a GPX file recorded 
at the same time to position panoramas automatically by using EXIF and GPX 
timestamps.

Hello,

where are the results of the previous survey and the resulting actions

I don't remember the exact title but I'm talking about the investigation 
about what osmf could/should do, a few months ago.
it would be nice to be able to indicate that you want to receive a 
notification when it is available, as not everyone reads the minutes of 
the different groups to find a follow-up to what they have participated.

Hi Marc,

there were two surveys run by the OSMF in the past months. One was the
survey in advance of the board's face to face meeting in Brussels. We
summarized these survey results as part of this blog post:

https://blog.openstreetmap.org/2019/06/13/surveying-openstreetmap/

Unfortunately, we cannot share the raw dataset as we failed to ask the
participants for their permission to publish their responses. However,
if you have specific questions about the results, we'll try to answer if
possible!

The most commonly mentioned concerns were discussed immediately at the
boards face-to-face meeting in Brussels, and board members are currently
tasked to work on several of them. There were also some ideas which we
felt were not part of the board's responsibilities, so we decided to
forward these to the appropriate parties.

A second, more recent survey was directed to working groups. This effort
is still ongoing – not all groups have responded so far, and I believe
we haven't evaluated the responses in detail yet.

Yours,
Tobias

Answer to "Check any of the following to describe your involvement in

anyone self-employed with OSM connections.

I can also see some expectations and assumptions being visible 'between 
the lines' in some questions but this looks more like projecting own 
preconceptions and state of mind and less like active manipulation.

There seem to be overall a lot of questions where there is a high 
likelihood that many participants will answer a different question than 
what those designing the survey wanted to ask - due to unclear and 
vague terminology for example and due to ambiguous references.

The question you referred to for example says

"Do you remotely map other countries?"

and it is unclear if the "other" refers to the country where you live or  
to "where do you map mostly".  Pure armchair mappers only mapping in a 
single country might answer "No" to this question.

My main concern is rather that there are a lot of free form questions 
yet there is no option for the participants to allow publication of the 
individual free form answers in anonymized form.  This means we will - 
just like in the previous survey - only learn about any of these 
answers through the lens of the subjective interpretation of those 
making the aggregation.  This provides a lot of room for distortion 
through either cultural bias or deliberate selectivity of those doing 
the aggregation which kind of defeats the whole idea of doing a survey 
to reach parts of the community that are otherwise not visible.

In other words: What the survey says is you are welcome to provide your 
ideas through the survey but we, the creators of the survey, reserve 
the right to interpret your answers as we see fit and neither you nor 
anyone else may correct us if we do not correctly interpret what you 
wrote.

Re: [OSM-talk] Survey on global and local communities in OpenStreetMap

[john whelan]

Creating a survey that works takes a lot of effort and it is quite
specialised.

Next time it might be worth asking some of the people who like to survey
the OSM community to build the survey incorporating a couple of questions
of their own and do a test run first.

I think that part of the motivation for doing surveys is that there was
a belief that some people don't want to say something in public e.g. on
a mailing list for fear of their opinion being challenged.

Of course, if you say your opinion through an intermediary, there is
*always* the risk of the intermediary deliberately or accidentally
misinterpreting our opinion. That's the downside, and the upside is you
get so say what you think without anyone challenging you about it. It's
a deal that you can take if you want; and if you don't want it then you
can *still* post your opinion on a mailing list or forum or your user
diary, where you can speak directly without being interpreted by an
intermediary - or even post your survey responses publicly like you did.

Bye
Frederik

The question is if this fear is about them being challenged or their 
opinion being challenged.

The idea that there might be people who have (a) an interest in their 
opinion being heard and at the same time (b) a fear of their opinion 
being challenged even in anonymity (meaning that no one except them 
knows it is their opinion) is intriguing.

Anyway - what i would have liked to see is the survey providing *the 
option* for participants to allow the publication of their anonymized 
individual answers, not *the requirement* to allow this.

By speaking directly and publishing my responses i risk being challenged 
and criticized personally.  While i don't mind this there are 
definitely a lot of people who don't want or can't do this.  And many 
of them probably would not mind their answers being published 
anonymously.

Select “publicly aggregated and anonymously” as answer to the first question 
and the free form answers will be published.
