[talk-au] Perth Canning Rv wetland Relation: 8337801

[K C]

I also had a look at it too. There were some wild boundaries, it seems that
were originally drawn using   DG
premium. Bing showed the river at the end of winter, maybe november, the
ESRI imagery (JOSM) showed the summer pattern. I cleaned up the boundaries
as some were quite simply in park land.

[talk-au] CPAD data conflict

[K C]

At this url you will find
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/167183262#map=13/-34.9968/118.0026, It
shows a protected area called Mount Marvin Botanical Park.
The reality is that the boundary follows the CPAD data representing Gull
Rock National Park. Contained within the boundary there is a unamed reserve
which I suspect is the said Botanical Park.

Name=Unnamed WA33308
Description=Unknown Area Type
Geometry=2622 vertices, Perimeter: 9.87 km, Area: 3.99 sq km
Map Name=SOUTH WEST.SHP
LAYER=Unknown Area Type
PA_ID=WA_33308
NAME=Unnamed WA33308
TYPE=5(1)(h) Reserve

Should I draw the CPAD data as it is and move the boundary depicting the
park to the above reserve area. I am quite positive that is the correct way

It seems to me that there are external links to a variety of websites in
some of the WA OSM data. I draw your attention to the Department of Parks
and Wildlife. That website too is copyright like every website in AU. I see
no permissions sought as to whether the DPaW allows a map contributor to
look at a photo on their website or glean some information as to whether
there are toilets at a particular spot.

Unfortunately I don't think they are going to upload their images to a site
offshore either. You will find they use images from third parties with the
appropriate permissions to display on their website. I display data from
another large organisation that is funded by the WA Government. I asked
permission to "link" to their particular pages via google maps and they
replied with some html to insert into the balloon and said that was fine.
My reason was that their information was very relevant to these remote
beaches for people to be made aware of the danger at the particular beach
in question.

There is no breach of copyright if you look at a photo and then make an
observation about the photo. There may be in other countries but not in AU.
There is a breach of copyright if some one took that photo as their own and
uploaded it to a photo sharing site etc. I choose to leave those images on
my server and not anyone else's. Those "links" to the photo's are there for
you the end user to see and understand what that 4wd surface actually is.
Trust me you have people drawing ways in places that the unsuspecting
commuter could end up in some serious shit.

Opening the any link in a new tab or window involves using target="blank"
after the url. I am not going to insert that html into the web page or
image link due to the fact of this security issue.
https://www.jitbit.com/alexblog/256-targetblank---the-most-underestimated-vulnerability-ever/
This is something that could be done by others. At the moment it is the
safest way to view any external link and the OSM people will probably agree.

I will remove the instances of viewpoints/coastal vistas etc and stick to
actually just detailing the actual track surfaces and other factors
relating to the actual track.

[talk-au] bushtrax.com images

[K C]

 I am the author of bushtrax.com and added those links to OSM. I also have
added quite a few 4wd tracks from the gpx files on the same site. As I have
found out another person has added one of those files under their name. I
just filled in all the relevant info.


Regarding the accuracy of the photos trust me you will have to drive to
that point and have a look yourself, I have been photographing the coast
using moving map software and a gps for nearly 17 years.

The viewpoint aspect is just that, I am standing on the Barron Lookout and
this is the view. I don't see the point of putting the viewpoint icon on
the road out the front of the Bremer Bay Caravan Park.

The tracks over time are realigned due to shifting dunes storms washing
them away or the managers of the land have deemed the track unsuitable and
altered the route. It also maps the rehabilitation that is carried out by
volunteers and the land managers staff. Some of the earliest efforts go
back as far as 1991, They are still there and in use today.


I have found plenty of these photos on other forums etc over the years but
they just used to link to the photo and left the photo on the server. No
problems from me. As in the case of of a Fairfax journalist who pinched one
early this year, he made himself look like fool.

I am the author of bushtrax.com and also added a lot of 4wd tracks between
2008 and 2012 so should I add the listing to the contributors index?.
Interesting to note that the Holland Track trace came from bushtrax.com as
when I over laid my file it was a perfect match.
