[OSM-talk] Bus Stop POI File

2011-03-06 Thread Esben Stien
For the sake of discussion, I have a simple case. 

Along a road, there are 100 bus stops. I'd like to make a POI file
containing the positions of all these bus stops. 

So, I sit in my car and I need a simple command to run every time I stop
outside a bus stop. 

Then I can bind this command to a button on my keyboard and I press this
button every time I park outside a bus stop. When I'm finished, I have a
POI file of the positions of all the bus stops. Later, I'm somehow able
to load this POI file into something like foxtrotgps.

Anyone have any pointers how I can do this and what tools I can use?.

I'm using a laptop running Ubuntu GNU/Linux with a Neo Freerunner phone
with GPS.

I need a terminal command to execute at every bus stop. This command
should probably create a GPX file or something that containes the
positions from the GPS every time I execute the command. 

It could also be a command to just store latitude and longitude to a
comma separated file: 

40.70175, -103.68998, First Waypoint
39.28553, -123.79357, Another point
42.49638, -108.72995, And a third

Then, I could do:

gpsbabel -i csv -f way.csv -o gpx -F way.gpx

..to convert the file to GPX, I guess.

[OSM-talk] Path with Pit Stops

2011-02-11 Thread Esben Stien

Is there some kind of application that can help me with plotting the
smartest route in a set of points, if you're supposed to visit all the
points?

Imagine a salesman, who has to visit 10 locations. Is there some
software that can assist me in visiting these 10 locations the smartest
and shortest way?. 

Any pointers?.

[OSM-talk] Manual Point Entry

2011-02-11 Thread Esben Stien
Is there some kind of command line application that would let me enter
data into the database?. 

Let's say I have the GPS coordinates of 100 auto repair shops. Is there
any command line way to enter these shops into the database?. 

Any pointers?.
