Re: [OSM-talk] Major Update to OpenRouteService 2.0

Sure we do like them ;-)
but we still had some issues with available ressources, but are working 
on it.

I think it's already quite a step from europe only.
(ps. you understand that all this is no funded work, so we can't always 
do as much and what/how we would like to do, but one small step after 
the other)

[OSM-talk] Major Update to OpenRouteService 2.0

[Alexander Zipf (HD)]

Dear OSM community,

in case you are not of aware of this we want to point out that after 
some years with less ORS related acitvities we finally managed to rise a 
completely new OpenRouteService from the ashes  :-)
Both the back- and frontend have been conceptually and technically 
totally renewed.?

Your welcome to test the service @ our usual URL:
www.openrouteservice.org 

The most important features :
- OpenRouteService is now available for all of Europe, Asia, Africa and 
Oceania/Australia !  
http://giscienceblog.uni-hd.de/files/2015/03/ors_world.png
- 7 different and enhanced routing profiles for cars, bikes and 
pedestrians (more to come)

- faster implementation
- automated weekly data update
- completely new implementation of accessibility analysis (more 
realistic isochrone maps)
- new WebClient with support for AvoidAreas, Import/Export of GPX etc.  
- Check the Advanced version from the Options page

- support for many international languages for directions
- base map styles from OpenMapSurfer and OSM-WMS.de et al.
- deployment on a new, stronger server
...

Also, the ORS wiki has been updated to further describe the available 
services (API) : http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenRouteService
Please try and give us feedback via Github regarding any errors or 
simply improve the client yourself: 
https://github.com/GIScience/openrouteservice/issues Also feel free to 
contact us at openrouteserv...@geog.uni-heidelberg.de 



Thanks a lot to all the recent contributors of the new ORS team: Maxim, 
Enrico, Oli, Timothy, Lukas, Jo, Boris, et al.!!!
Stay tuned for more updates this month, you'll find more news at our 
blog : http://giscienceblog.uni-hd.de/

[OSM-talk] cfp: OSM @ GEOINFORMATIK 2013 (Deadline for abstracts: Dec 12th)

[Alexander Zipf (HD)]

Dear all,

Please feel invited to submit abstracts (1-2 pages) for the OSM special 
session at the conference GEOINFORMATIK 2013 in Heidelberg, Germany 
(March 13.-15.2013).
The deadline for submissions of abstracts is approaching soon --  Friday 
next week!
In addition to the conventional sessions dedicated to science, business 
and public administration, we plan to have a specific session dedicated 
to OSM, Open Geodata and Crowdsourcing GI.

Therefore we are looking for interesting presentations about this.
Of course you can send in abstracts about any other innovative topic 
related to geoinformation.
You can find the call for papers here: 
http://geoinformatik2013.de/index.php/en/call-for-papers
Please use the conference system for submissions and do not contact me 
directly about this (I am not the programme chair).
Further options include posters, workshops or an exhibition by companies 
and other institutions.
Of course there will be a free OSM community booth, but other exhibitors 
are welcome (conditions online).
The conference will be held at the oldest university in Germany in the 
romantic old town of Heidelberg :-)


Looking forward to meet you in March!
all the best
