Re: [talk-ph] Lowering Barrier to Entry
Here are more direct links of the story from the giver and the receiver of the grant money: Receiver: http://mapbox.com/blog/knight-invests-openstreetmap/ Giver: http://www.knightfoundation.org/press-room/press-mention/openstreetmap-gets-first-major-funding-knight-news/ While this is the largest OSM-related donation/grant that I am aware of, some people are a bit disgruntled because the story has been confused by the news writers. Take note that OSM itself (the OSM Foundation or the OSM community at-large) has not received this money. The grant money has been awarded to MapBox, a company that uses OSM data and provides mapping-related services based on OSM data. They were given this grant to develop tools for OSM. But it is not guaranteed that these tools they will be developing will be used by the OSM community.

Re: [OSM-talk] All you've ever wanted to know about the french cadastre
Martin Koppenhoefer wrote: Personally I would prefer to see http://www.remote.org/frederik/tmp/funnybuilding.png as a single closed outline box. I think that 6-7 buildings (looking at the bing aerial http://it.bing.com/maps/?v=2cp=44.277739~0.502686lvl=20dir=0sty=hwhere1=44,277748%200,502839form=LMLTCC , maybe there is more but on a first remote approximation I could see 6 or 7) would be much better than a single closed outline box, especially, if the tag is something like building=yes which is used for one building, not groups of them. There is a really huge difference between 1 big building and 7 adjacent small ones. The problem is, that the cadastre version doesn't seem to make sense when compared to the aerial imagery. It is better to have detailed outlines, but only if this detail is depicting reality. Certainly looking at the bing image there seemed to be a major difference between what was drawn and the difference in roof structure. And the overall shape. THIS is where being able to access the raw import data would be useful as a comparison ... if only to identify where the import process is breaking down? I'm seeing EXACTLY the same sorts of problem with the UK data which I have already indicated. I can pull up OS Streetview, bing, and in some cases historic maps and see the differences. It was THIS situation which prompted me originally to look into how the French data was handling it, and I think that it's exactly the same problem! I have referred to 'trusted' data sources, but I do not think any of these sources come into that category, while 'boundaryline', and the French 'landuse' (? which that is) could be treated as 'trusted'? What data can be imported and updated automatically? While some government data has been made 'open source', the KEY material is still locked down! :( Identifying the number of buildings in a block would be easy if we had a list of individual buildings and their location. The UK NLPG data has that list, but we can't use it. Also in the same way as the French data quality varies from town to town, the data within NLPG has the same vast differences in quality, and in many cases relies on the well out of data OS streetview data. Can the cadastre data be accessed as a list? I presume not as I'm sure you would be using it as a cross-check, but it's this 'building list' that is the key to ensuring that each identifiable building is displayed on OSM in the future. In the case of NLPG this will only identify a 'property' which will not necessarily count detached garages and outbuildings unless they are under separate ownership, and I would anticipate the same in the cadastre data? All the discussions here are very much interrelated ( I don't do politics so I ignore that debate ) ... The discussion on 'adding layers' is to a certain extent academic. We ARE already using layers in the editors, and using http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=44.2777468264103lon=0.502683520317078zoom=19 as our current example, edit gives the potlatch view with bing and there is a major discrepancy between the two layers. It would be nice here if the cadastre import was also available as the OS Streetview is on UK areas. With such a long set of threads I've forgotten and can't find who said that OSM had specific to USE the cadastre imagery in the editors :( I can understand why a local group MANAGING an import source might not want it generally available, but I think there needs to be a good reason not to? At the end of the day, what we need to decide is what level of accuracy is acceptable, and while I don't think we want to be getting to a level where measurements of OSM can be used to settle property boundary disputes, the information imparted should represent the ground conditions as accurately as possible. I decided against importing buildings from streetview because it IS too far from reality. Claims are being made that the French data is more up to date, but if it is not being properly geo-referenced and is producing poor quality data should it be allowed in? returning to the example, in the absence of evidence that the building IS split into multiple units it SHOULD be drawn as a single entity? And tidying up would mean aligning it with the bing footprint? NONE of the buildings in the vicinity are of a quality that I would be happy to commit at which point I'd like to see the raw data and work out where the problem is. Some buildings are actually quite accurate, so the positioning is good, I get the same on streetview where I KNOW the build has been constructed in the last 5 years! But then the buildings around can be up to 50% off. I moved down to the village below the example building ... Moving this forward ... I think we are getting to a point where 'staging' or 'construction' layers do make sense. And a few of them would also make sense as separately selectable layers in viewers.

Do you intend light constructions?). I am particularly opposing the idea to use wall=no for a feature that might have walls but not a roof (balconies), and I do also generally oppose this tag wall=no because of the reasons given above (not intuitive, mixes different classes, sometimes even contradictory). To get this right: I am not opposing the division into several buildings instead of one outline (judging from the bing aerial these are indeed several buildings), but the divisions between those buildings should follow reality (which they apparently don't do at all in the cadastre version). I am aware that this is simply one example, but the way it looks makes me fear that there are lots of similar problems. In this particular case it looks as if manual tracing would be faster than adjusting the vector version. cheers, Martin ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Re: [OSM-talk] All you've ever wanted to know about the french cadastre
Hi, I think we should perhaps add a new section in the cadastre documentation: the purpose of the cadastre, and the way it is made. In France you need to ask for a permission from the public authority (the municipalities) before to make a new building. It include a detailed map of what you want to do. This is the map added to the cadastre (at least the local copy), each time an authorisation is asked. So the data in the cadastre is an aggregation of every building map provided by the architects (not always the case). But you are also authorized to build some new extension of a house without to ask permission, if the new build is under a predefined size or kind of building. So, many people are adding new portion of building just at the limit size, that's why we can sometime see small part of building on the cadastre. It can be not visible from the street or aerial imagery, but it is still the reality of the building ! All the wall=no polygon are build on the same kind of rules: you need to ask for an authorization if you build a full house with foundation, but you can do almost what you want if the building as no foundation, especially in the case of agricultural buildings (which seem to be the case of our current example). So if you build something without real wall, or without a roof, it's identified in a different way on the cadastre map.

Until you can back up your claim with solid numbers, your claim, more specifically the wordtypical, is just FUD. Furthermore it can hurt many hard working french contributors, who for a single city spent dozens of hours integrating the cadaster into OSM. Time for some numbers then... Detailed data is available upon request. Thanks Paul for taking the time to give some numbers. I don't understand also the technical details but hopefully well enough to provide some feedback that makes sense :) Looking at your examples, I can see that some buildings have a geometry that doesn't seem to be in line with the reality. However, like other persons mentioned here already, the only way to find out if this is OK is to check with a survey. The problem is however real. I know that our french OSM gurus have some checks for the cadaster import, but I don't know if it catches this kind of potential errors. Still, your analysis still doesn't quantify it well enough to entitle it typical. 1 day of data is really not enough to be representative. Also, it's impossible to find automatically if adjacent building ways should be joined or not (wall issue, adjacent but separate buildings…). I am not saying it's not a problem, and I am not saying it's not typical, I am just saying there isn't enough proof to say that yet. A significant number of cadastre imported buildings consist of multiple ways, such as in the example Frederik gave. Could you summarize it in more simple wording and an exact number ? For instance: 10% of the new buildings imported between … and … share some ways with other buildings that have the same tags. Also, I didn't understand who you differentiate the cadaster imports from the rest. Cheers Olivier ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

This kind of reason can explain what you are observing Cocerning building outlines it can be usefull for people performing study about urbanisation density etc so there is not one benefit related to one cateogry of data but benefits related to use. Since we started to massively draw building outlines we also observe in France that people put much more POIs because this is very easier to add them when you have the buildings instead of just street because you know nuch more that your baker is just after 3rd building than 23meter after street corner...

Quite easy to see in some places where you have access to very precise ortho imagery or vector data to compare with. For example in Lund where we get ortho imagery from the municpality; Here the Bing layer is distorted in different directions just a few blocks apart… not to mention that the Bing imagery is quite a few years older. Same with some vector data that muncipalities in the region have provided to OSM where it is easy to see that Bing imagery is quite inaccurate. Sorry but I do not see any problem with the bing imagery in the area I identified. I moved up to 'Prayssas' being the first identifiable location I found, and I find it very strange that someone has imported a lot of buildings without any reference to roads to access them. I could understand if these buildings were then used to add the missing roads, but I've found no problem with the location of imagery against other sources in the UK so you would have to provide some pretty good evidence that the imagery around 'Prayssas' is distorted!

There is a certain level of accuracy that can be achieved as an armchair mapper and there is certainly a lot more detail that can be added world wide using just the material currently available.

I'd certainly appreciate it if the editors automatically added 'source:trace=xxx' where I'm using a particular background layer - heck I forget to ADD the tag most of the time! With regards data, one needs to know the limits of it's accuracy. I know that some streetview data is 40 years old. I can even identify the map it originally came from, so it has to be a judgement if I use it. The positional accuracy of the cadastral data is what I am questioning. Either someone says 'this is our reference' and we ignore the differences to other imagery, or it gets tidied up and the obvious flaws such as extra diagonal lines are removed. I get the impression that this is a process that should be happening but not everybody is 'complying', so something needs to be done to re-educate those mappers to the 'assistance' element over the 'just copy raw' activity? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL - Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Re: [OSM-talk] All you've ever wanted to know about the french cadastre
De : Sarah Hoffmann lon...@denofr.de Hi Sarah, Sorry for this late response and hope to make debate less passionate. I don't know which data you have been looking at, but let's ask Nominatim, shall we? Great idea, this is always good to discuss about facts Ok, so by example could you extract stats from Grenoble instead of whole France ? I thinks this quite representative of cities where there are buildings and quite a lot of details. Concerning discussions about separated accounts I`m sure that there is a good reason behind that but it was perhaps decided for cases that do not match French one. What we are trying to do here is to discuss to understand why this rule has been done ( that's why we are asking for a list of issues that import Guidelines Rules want to address ) and if it is possible to find a solution both satisfy the goal you have and that do not create problems for good-will french mapppers that spend time to perform clean cadastre integration. I`m convinced ( or at least I hope )that you don`t create this rule to make French mappers crazy. Concerning the waste of bandwidth and CPU, the nuisance for people who want to use OSM data I understand the problem but I guess it will come even without cadastre because due to Open Data mouvment there will certainly more and more big data sources to integrate. There is certainly something to do also with tools or database schematic perhaps to optimise this kind of issues but agains I think that cadastre is the thing that put the light on the problem but is not the direct cause of the problem. We are mapping the world and I think this quite surprising to have only 32 bits id ( I face this kind of problems in my professional life with long microelectronics simulations ) but this is certainly due to good reasons when it has been designed and I understand the issue you mention. So if cadastre building integration create technical issues like too many disk space usage or lack of technical solutions to solve the issue you mention I would prefer that you say that clearly and ask to stop cadastre import until there is a solution rather than saying use separated accounts or things like that won't solve your issue. I`m really happy that you mention a technical problem and something concrete to explain clearly one part of the problem and I thinks that Fench community is able to understand this kind of problematic. Thanks for your food for thought and I hope that we will succeed to reach a solution Cheers Julien___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Even if the quality is questionable in both cases. So indeed, I would agree that French contributors do map other details. Occasionally. Very. Occasionally.

For the sake of completeness: planetwide there are currently 152 million objects. Which means 1/6th of the planet consists of French buildings. Now, there is a real problem. It was a time where TIGER data took half of the database (if I remember correctly). Then the ratio declined. It will be the same for French buildings. Germans are also massively adding buildings but by hand (is it not also imported sometimes ?). It's just a matter of time until Germans will exceed the French on this. Will you be happy to read now the German buildings is a real problem because it takes 1/6th or 1/7th of the planet ? It wastes lots of bandwidth and CPU time. Again the same arguments we have seen years ago from those against imports in general. Nothing new. And for data consumers, they can filter by tags or areas if they wish.

The numbers are from the respective taginfo instances. So the question remains why the information in not being added to the outlines. Addresses are not extracted (yet) from the vector cadastre data. Adding them is done 100% manually except when other opendata sets are available (Nantes metropole has just been finished with 400.000+ addresses added if I'm not wrong). We have the cadastre JOSM plugin who helps adding addresses manually using the cadastre WMS layer in the background. I manually added thousands of addresses that way, on both WMS vector based cadastre and raster one (more difficult to read).

I think that for buildings composed of one way and 4 nodes the space required by the could be greater than for geometry. if this is the case there is perhaps a way to factorise the source key and dramatically reduce disk usage.

It's a waste of money when the government cries about how poor it is and cuts funding to public transport, education and hospitals, and fails to repair neglected roads, but can then magically pluck $20 million from thin air. I agree the alphanumeric system makes sense, but it's hypocritical of the government given everything they've said for the past 18 months. BTW - Why is the Hume Highway being labelled A22. Isn't it Highway 31?

Zum einen lag mein Schwerpunkt nicht auf der Frage, ist das tagging falsch, sondern, dass mir die Zeit für diskussionen fehlt (wie wir gerade eine Führen) und wie ihr das handhabt. Dazu kam außer von Frederik aber noch nicht viel. Und jetzt kommt noch ein weiteres Problem dazu. Würde ich Naturschutzgebiet im Wiki so anpassen, das Natura2000 kein Naturschutzgebiet (leisure=nature_reserve) ist kommen auch sofort 10 Leute und sagen: erstens steht das so nicht im englischen Wiki, zweitens passt du es nur an Deine Vorstellungen an.

Aber kein Wort dazu, warum nun leisure=nature_reserve das richtige sein soll und nicht vielleicht boundary=national_park. Das ist auch irgendwas mit Naturschutz Bei landuse=military wurde das Tag für ein Warngebiet gewählt, weil es so schön schraffiert ist. Verständnis und Darstellung dieses Tags waren für mich bisher gleichbedeutend mit Sperrgebiet. Auch hierzu habe ich keinen Widerspruch gelesen. Wenn ihr euch nun die Warngebiete auf der Ostsee anschaut, so werdet ihr sehen, dass sich diese außerhalb der 12 sm-Zone befinden. Der Staat kann hier, selbst wenn er wollte, kein Sperrgebiet einrichten. Er hat keine Möglichkeiten euch mittels Zwang notfalls aus dem Gebiet zu befördern. Es besteht nur die Möglichkeit, dass ihr darauf hingewiesen werdet, falls da Militärschiffe sind, dass es in deren Nähe gefährlich sein kann -- mehr nicht. Also deutlich weniger als an Land. Also etwas anderes, als landuse=military. Damit ist es nicht ausgeschlossen, dass es echte Sperrgebiete auch auf See geben kann (siehe Schießgebiete bei Fehmarn) aber ich kann nicht Ostsee und Nordsee zu Sperrgebieten erklären, wo keine sind.

Das boundary=protected_area ist übrigens noch allgemeiner und kann auch z.B. für Denkmalschutz, Luftschutz oder Trinkwasserschutz genutzt werden. Zwar sind schon einige Subtags für die Unterscheidung definiert, aber bequem aufbereitet ist das noch nicht und im Zweifel wird man sich schon gut auskennen oder ein bisschen Zeit investieren müssen (d.h. ggf. auch das Schema erweitern), um genau das zu beschreiben, was man vorgefunden hat. Die Deutschen sind doch gründlich ;-) und haben jetzt auch nicht mehr so viel zu tun, wo alles schon schön grunderfasst ist, vielleicht hat ja jemand Zeit und Lust, sich da eingehender mit dem Thema zu beschäftigen und im Wiki zu dokumentieren, wie man die in Deutschland üblichen Schutzgebiete, National- und Regionalparks, FFH/Natura2000, Vogelschutzgebiete etc. in diesem Schema ausführlich umsetzen könnte? Es gäbe auch noch einen Konflikt zu klären wie man mit Nationalparks umgehen will, die sind bisher sowohl mit boundary=national_park als auch mit boundary=protected_area definiert. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dprotected_area Für FFH wird protect_class=97 (protected by continental agreements.) vorgeschlagen, das trifft aber laut Wiki auf alle möglichen Dinge zu, wie z.B. Natura 2000: Site of Community Interest (SCI), FFH-Gebiet (SAC), Vogelschutzgebiet (SPA), Emerald-Gebiete. European greenbelt, ... Das war bisher oft ein Problem in dem bisherigen Schema protected_class: leider werden verschiedene Dinge in einen Topf geworfen, nämlich WAS geschützt werden soll (Wasser, Vögel, Natur, etc.) und WIE/VON WEM (d.h. die Wichtigkeit, ist das z.B. international, national oder nur regional). Mittlerweile ist das allerdings durch sehr viele vorgeschlagenen Zusatztags behoben, wo man offizielle Referenznr. und Schutzklassifizierungen, Schutzziele, Landbesitzer, Betreiber, Auszeichnungen und viel mehr eintragen kann. Da es bisher aber kaum Beispiele gibt sehe ich aufgrund der Unmenge an tags die Gefahr, dass da jeder sein eigenes Süppchen kocht.

Im einzelnen werden derzeit folgende Datenquellen benutzt: - Die Open Aerial Tiles von open.mapquest.com (15m/pixel in Europa und 0.5m/pixel in den USA) - Luftbilder der Stadt Wien (0.25m/pixel) - Luftbilder der Stadt Linz (0.25m/pixel) - Luftbilder der Stadt Graz (ca. 0.5m/pixel) - Luftbilder des Land Vorarlbergs (0.25m/pixel) - Luftbilder des Land Freistaats Bayern (2m/pixel) Bei einigen Datenquellen ist es notwendig die Daten im Hintergrund von den jeweiligen Landes GIS-System abzufragen, weshalb es beim ersten Zugriff auf ein Gebiet zu einer deutlichen Verzögerung bei der Darstellung kommen kann. Nach dem ersten Zugriff werden die Daten zwischengespeichert, was die nachfolgenden Zugriffe enorm beschleunigt.

Ma allora per lo stesso principio io metterei permissive p.e. su quei 30 metri di strada a senso unico che in tantissimi imbocchiamo in senso opposto per evitarne 10 volte tanto su strada trafficata , anche da bus e camion, rischiando la salute solo perché l'amministrazione è sorda alle esigenze della comunità ciclistica. ciao, Martin Ciao, Ale.

Questa è la tipica regola da implementare direttamente nell'intelligenza del router, che non va direttamente mappata nel database. Proprio come l'ipotetica regola in bicicletta, se devo scegliere X metri di strada ciclabile, o Y metri di strada pedonale, preferisco smontare dalla bici e farla a piedi se Y/X è minore di una soglia. Anche in questo caso, IMHO, non andrebbe messo bicycle=permissive sul percorso pedonale (perché è falso): dovrebbe essere direttamente il router a capire se e quando usarlo.

Dovresti usare oneway:bicycle=permissive +1 , e non so se sia supportato. Ad esempio su taginfo non esiste: http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/oneway:bicycle#values -1, credo anch'io che non sia supportato, però che c'entra? Si potrebbe sempre implementare. 2. l'aggiunta di oneway:bicycle=permissive su quella way non sarebbe una mappatura di quello specifico tratto di strada, ma discenderebbe da una regola più generale: in bicicletta, se devo scegliere X metri di strada trafficata, o Y metri di strada non trafficata e contromano, preferisco la seconda quando Y/X è minore di una soglia. non sono sicuro. Al meno a vista globale sarebbe una proprietà specifica di questa strada, dedotta dalla connoscenza locale del mappatore. Se fai una cosa del genere a Stoccarda (andare contro mano in bici dove non è consentito) e ti vede la polizia puoi essere sicuro che ti multano (quindi non è permissive), mentre a Roma puoi essere sicuro che ne anche ti notano, figuriamoci a Napoli ;-) ciao, Martin ___ Talk-it mailing list Talk-it@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-it

Grazie mille, non potevo chiedere spiegazione migliore ! Ma allora : 1) Per router si intende il cervello del Garmi, del Mio, del programmino per Android ? 2) Esiste qualcosa di così sofisticato ma online ? Bikeroutetoaster e Openrouteservice non prevedono di andare contromano oppure scendere e spingere.
