[OSRM-talk] OSRM Demo server - Hosting Volunteer

2020-02-03 Thread Srihari Thalla
Hi,

I'd like to volunteer to host the demo server for the project.

Demo: Germany country-wide with *Car* profile only
Frontend: https://daxserver.com
OSRM API: https://osrm.daxserver.com (
https://osrm.daxserver.com/route/v1/driving/13.388860,52.517037;13.385983,52.496891?steps=true
 )

A little bit about myself and my relationship with OSM.

I am Srihari Thalla, based out of Munich, originally from Hyderabad, India.

I contribute on OSM under the username "Srihari Thalla" without quotes
(with space in between the names.) I am also a member of OSMF.

I hosted a few MapRoulette challenges about 3 years ago
1. https://maproulette.org/admin/project/937/challenge/2403
2. https://maproulette.org/admin/project/937/challenge/2814
and others

In the past, I have worked at LocationIQ, which hosted Nominatim and
provided its services. I lead the development at LocationIQ where it served
over a billion geocoding requests per day when I left the company.

I have also worked with Docker and k8s on my personal projects and I know
the ins and outs of working with Docker and setting up and managing infra.

I hope I can host the OSRM demo server.

Best,
Srihari

Re: [Talk-in] old_name tag for merged Associate State Banks

2017-10-13 Thread Srihari Thalla
Chetan, Is there any possibility to update them via script?

I am not sure if Overpass API can download based on changes in changesets.
If not, manually going through the spreadsheet would be the obvious choice.

It would be better to write a script to query the histories of Bank amenity
objects
and import them into JOSM and update.

Scripting would, of course, need approval from the community!

Here are my changesets: OSMCha: https://goo.gl/V76HoH

I bundled all the changes into two changesets. (There are 5 other singled
out changesets too.)

Manually :: Downloading the changeset -> going through each object history
-> updating each object

What do you say would be a good idea?

[Talk-in] old_name tag for merged Associate State Banks

2017-10-13 Thread Srihari Thalla
Hi,

Back in May 2017, we have updated the name tags of merged Associate State
Banks from their old names (State Bank of xxx) to the new name, "State Bank
of India".

We have identified and tracked the entries in a spreadsheet [1]. I have
updated many entries.
However, I forgot to add the old_name tag with the old name (State Bank of
xxx) and just updated the name tag to State Bank of India.

I think it is good to have the old names in the old_name tag as people
might still remember the banks with their old names.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
Srihari

Hi!

Some of the major National Highways (like Asian Highways[1]) have service
roads running in parallel. What is the standard tagging of these roads?

I have tagged them as "trunk_link" [2] but I am not sure if this is the one

Re: [Talk-in] Short names and brand:wikidata tags for Banks

2017-06-11 Thread Srihari Thalla
Can RBI be tagged with amenity=bank? The wiki[1] says "A bank branch is a
financial establishment where customers can, among other services, deposit
and withdraw money, take loans, make investments and transfer funds." RBI
does not do them (does it?) rather controls the money policy and others.

BTW, here is the complete list of Banks in India:

It is recommended to add short names and brand:wikidata tags for Banks.
Short names will enable Nominatim to search when short names are queried.
Additionally, website and wikipedia tags would be useful.

I have left some of the entries in the spreadsheet which are ambiguously

 We should do this once the name boards on the ground start changing,
 otherwise this would cause confusion for those using the maps. Ganesh is
 there a deadline by which all the branches should update their signboard?

[Talk-in] Identifying usage of railway tracks

2017-04-06 Thread Srihari Thalla
As of this writing, there are 10052 Ways with railway=rail but without any
usage=* / service=* tags[1].

I have created a MapRoulette Challenge[2] with these Ways. I hope this
Challenge would get IRFCA fans interested[3]. (Who knows about railways
better than them? ;))

But, I have not filled in the instructions on how to complete the
Challenge. I don't think many IRFCA people know how to contribute to OSM,
so I believe a detailed instruction manual would be necessary (like this
[4]).

Can someone help me with preparing it?

Re: [Talk-in] Use MapRoulette to improve OSM - India data

2017-03-29 Thread Srihari Thalla
I have completed identifying unmapped villages in Krishna. There are 1174
nodes and ways tagged with "place=village".

I have made a Challenge in MapRoulette to trace roads and connect these
villages with nearby highways. (We can trace houses later.)

I need help with tagging the roads. I made the instructions to tag
asphalt/good condition roads as "tertiary" and other non-asphalt roads as
"unclassified".
Since these roads connect villages with other major highways/town/other
villages, the tags tertiary/unclassified seemed optimal.

Identifying and tagging these unmapped villages took around 8 hours and
spread across a week!
At this rate, it might take several months for me to just tag Andhra
Pradesh and Telangana.

I would really need help from others speeding this up. If anyone's
interested, we can organise and work together.

Re: [Talk-in] Use MapRoulette to improve OSM - India data

2017-03-29 Thread Srihari Thalla
Hi Deepak,

Thanks for your feedback! It's very useful.

1. I have made a post with detailed instructions for tagging districts. I
think it is a little easy to tag all the adjacent districts as they share
the same ways.
https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/maproulette/2017-March/000113.html

2. The official railway link for station codes seems to be down sometimes
and working sometimes. I found an IRFCA link to search for the station
codes. I have updated the link in MapRoulette too.
IRFCA - http://irfca.org/apps/station_codes

3. If no Wiki info if found, it's better to leave them and mark as "Too
difficult/Couldn't fix" in MapRoulette. We can investigate them once the
current Challenges are completed.

4. Stations in the middle of nowhere can be left as marked as "Too
difficult". We can check them later! You can find the train routes info at
http://indiarailinfo.com/

Re: [Talk-in] Use MapRoulette to improve OSM - India data

Hi, Deepak!

You have to zoom in a little bit. MapRoulette is trying to load the visible
map on the screen in JOSM.

For districts, as they are relations, zoom in on the boundary. This will
make sure that JOSM download contains the relation.
Before (MapRoulette says too much area) -

After -
https://www.dropbox.com/s/w4hjq9lpstnkad3/Screenshot%202017-03-24%2000.04.22.png?dl=0

For cities and towns, as they are mostly nodes, zoom in on the node.
Screenshot -
https://www.dropbox.com/s/siivc2in9x70yhq/Screenshot%202017-03-24%2000.05.33.png?dl=0
If it still says too much area, just zoom in a little more!

Try these once again and let me know if it worked. If there are problems, I
will check with Martijn of MapRoulette!

Thanks for checking out challenges. Did you find them useful? Any
improvements to be done for them to make them even more efficient and

Re: [Talk-in] Use MapRoulette to improve OSM - India data

2017-03-23 Thread Srihari Thalla
I have added "place=village" nodes for villages in Krishna district (AP)
traced on Bing imagery [1] [2]. I have only traced some parts of the
district and the villages count grew to ~700 and probably doubles once I
sweep thru the entire district. It took a couple of hours for mapping them
(~350 in 2 changesets).

At this rate, it would take several days to just identify unmapped villages
and then map them and several weeks to trace roads to them!

Any ideas on how we can speed this up? As Arun said, we should do it in
sprints for this process to take off.

I have set up these challenges as of today:

@Naveen I hope all the NHs are already traced and mapped [and updated to

set up the challenges. I might need your help.

-

Regarding tracing roads and building in small towns and villages, I noticed
that more 50% of the villages were not even mapped (at least in
Andhra/Telangana, I didn't look at other states). I think this procedure
might be good:

[a] - Place `node`s with place=village tags for untagged villages. We don't
know all the names, so we might want to leave the name for now.
[b] - Setup challenges to trace roads; and buildings
[c] - Work to get data about the villages (starting with their names
themselves)

I can start [a] with Andhra Pradesh and Telangana
district-wise-alphabetically. If you are open to this idea, let me know and

But tracing untraced villages would be good for featuring in his

[Talk-in] Use MapRoulette to improve OSM - India data

2017-03-15 Thread Srihari Thalla
Hi!

Since JOSM featured MapRoulette since a couple of days, there has been a
spike in MapRoulette usage:

   1. All Challenges metrics - http://maproulette.org/ui/metrics
   2. Self-intersecting multipolygon relations (India) -
   http://maproulette.org/ui/metrics/2380

I think we can use this time to add more Indian specific challenges and
thereby improve OSM-India data!

I'm thinking of these challenges:

   1. Reverse ways with oneway = -1 (except in rare cases where direction
   of the way cannot be changed or for other reason) -

   2. Trace ___ in small towns and villages
  1. Roads
  2. Buildings
   3. Wikipedia and Wikidata tags for:
   1. Cities and towns - http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/nvT
  2. Railway Stations - http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/nvU
   4. Tag railway station `ref` codes
  1. http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/nvR
  2. Source - http://www.indianrail.gov.in/stn_Code.html
  5. Clean horse=yes tags on highways (except where horses are
   specifically required like at hill stations) -
   http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/nvW
   Question: Who set this tag for highways in the first place? Looks like
   the tags are copied from Europe?
   6. Clean redundant motor_vehicle=yes tags on major highways (not
   restricted expressways) (not where this tag is explicitly required) -

Thoughts? Ideas? Improvements?

Cheers,
Srihari
