Re: [talk-au] OSM Client for Symbian?
I've been using Mobile Trail Explorer on my E71. http://www.substanceofcode.com/software/mobile-trail-explorer/* *It's far from polished, crashes occasionally, and has a flakey UI, but it records traces to KML and GPX, and can load OSM map tiles if you have a Internet connection. I believe you can also download the map tiles to a cache so as that you can use them without Internet, but I've not tried it.* *But, save your trace frequently, and don't dare interrupt saving a trace, lest it eat all your hard work and crash... Hope this helps, Jason* * 2009/10/2 Cosmic Charade cosmichar...@gmail.com I have a Nokia N95. I want to go walkabout north side Canberra this weekend to get some fresh air. I'm ready to go with a stack of batteries and plenty of music. a) Is there a Symbian / Nokia client to access OSM on the go like I can do with Google Maps? b) Can I record a track with say Nokia Sports Tracker that can export tracks to kml format to contribute if I find any bike or walking tracks or POIs along the way? My wife stole the netbook so I can't use that with my GPS dongle :-( Thanks.. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] Slowly spreading the word - Scouts and OSM
Hi Jeff, That's awesome. As a Scout Leader myself, I'd be very interested to hear the kinds of things that you are getting your venturers to do. I've been thinking for a while about getting our troop involved in mapping some of the less popular walking tracks and trails in nearby national parks, and the POIs that they come across (shelters, water towers, comms towers, etc) Cheers, Jason Stirk 2009/9/21 Jeff Price jeff.pr...@rocketmail.com Looks like I've managed to get OSM integrated into our Venturer Scouts badge program by doing a rolling program of train-survey-map-survey-map-handover between each member for badge activity. While they'll probably not complete significant amounts of mapping at a minimum they'll learn some new skills and help spread the OSM story.

Re: [talk-au] Fwd: [OSM-talk] How to tag giant acorn?
2009/8/23 David Clarke gadic...@pnambic.org That's cutting in to our big attractions. So what're we left with, the big potato, merino, trout and oyster? Big gallah in SA somewhere too (around Kimba? I don't remember...) Big lobster *somewhere*. I know I've seen it, but buggered if I know where. Does the Golden Guitar or whatever in Tamworth count? I'm sure there are a heap of others too. I don't think we're running out of big things just yet. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] Fwd: [OSM-talk] How to tag giant acorn?
2009/8/12 John Smith delta_foxt...@yahoo.com big prawn somewhere else along the pacific highway At Ballina, and it's been announced in the last week or so that it will be demolished some time soon, as it's in really bad nick. Not sure when though. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] Pacific and New England Highway interchange area
Just had a quick look, and it looks correct to me? Do you have a link to the area marked as under construction? I was up and along there a lot last month, but didn't bother to survey as I thought it was all done. Cheers, Jason 2009/8/5 John Smith delta_foxt...@yahoo.com I forgot to mention, the Tugan bypass actually needs surveying, it's still listed as being constructed. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] General mapping question :)
(To the list this time...) Not sure if this applies, but in many rural areas you'll find that public roads may be through gates marked as private property. For instance, the road I live on passes through private property, has an (open) gate marked as private property, but this road is the only access to a few other properties behind it. I've also run into a few instances quite literally out the back of Bourke... 150Km along the 300Km Wilcannia-Bourke track to see a fence warning it's private property and trespassers will be shot at. It's still the main public road though... That said, none of that helps your tagging quandary... 2009/6/25 John Smith delta_foxt...@yahoo.com Ok, I'm stumped how to show this effectively. Basically Google maps are showing a road which no longer or never existed, on one end it goes through a gate to private property, the other end it looks like a car port and the road/track ends. http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=qsource=s_qhl=ensll=-25.335448,135.745076sspn=55.047272,114.082031ie=UTF8ll=-26.15826,152.645245spn=0.006885,0.013926z=17 Marked as Horswood Rd on gmaps... I've marked the parts of the road that exists presently on OSM from a GPS survey, but I'm not sure how to mark the road explicitly that it isn't a through fare. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
