[talk-ph] Fwd: [OSM-talk] Map Kibera import needs some mapper love
Hi guys! I think its appropriate for us to give back some OSM love. :) Two remote mapping requests are needed. MapKibera - http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nairobi#Map_Kibera_Import - http://brainoff.com/weblog/2010/01/12/1513 and Haiti Quake - http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Haiti#2010_Earthquake_Response On Wed, Jan 13, 2010 at 1:40 PM, Mikel Maron mikel_ma...@yahoo.com wrote: The first thing that's needed is removal of old data in Kibera, and linkage of roads in Kibera to Nairobi main lines.

We can also contribute to the Haiti quake response http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Haiti#2010_Earthquake_Response Thanks as always Mikel == Mikel Maron == http://mapkibera.org/ +254 (0) 724899738 mi...@osmfoundation.org From: maning sambale emmanuel.samb...@gmail.com To: Mikel Maron mikel_ma...@yahoo.com Sent: Tue, January 12, 2010 8:40:54 PM Subject: Re: [OSM-talk] Map Kibera import needs some mapper love Time to give back some OSM love. :) How can I help?

Current GPX is archived at http://kibera.maps.jsintl.org/traces I have some hacky scripts that could be adapted to do this, specifically: http://github.com/avar/gps/blob/master/script/get-osm-gpx-tracks-for-user combined with something like jgpxupload in osm svn. But it would be easier to have a pg_dump of the and gpx* gps* tables in your database along with a tarred up archive of the gpx tracks. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Re: [OSM-talk] Map Kibera import needs some mapper love
Would that involve converting the .osm files to .gpx and uploading? If so, i dont think the community agrees to upload perfect gpx traces, the community perfers 'speratic' gpx tracks point clouds all over the place. None of that 'useful' gpx data, please :-) (it only results in a better map) kidding aside, i think thats a silly rule. As long as the tracks were not traced from the Google monster. What is the 'logical' explaination for not permitting this?

Re: [OSM-talk] Map Kibera import needs some mapper love
it looks like your GPX tracks were RAW gpx tracks (that contain date/time/elevation data. there is just 97 .gpx tracks there. I think that it's fine to just manually upload it to the main OSM database. I was refering to converting the .osm files (from the source data). because it contains to date/time/elevation stamp, the system rejects the man-made gpx tracks.
