Re: [talk-au] highway=living_street - what do people think?
2009/10/16 John Henderson snow...@gmx.com: I note that living_street isn't listed in the Australian tagging guidelines - hence my query. 99.999% of the time you should only use the Map Features page for specific tags, the Aussie Tagging Guidelines is more to do with translating from UK/Euro speak into Aussie, rather than defining our own tags. From what I've seen in emails from those living in UK/Europe, living streets seem to be common there, but seem fairly rare here. I've marked one street as living street where pedestrians have more right of way than cars: http://osm.org/go/ueTQqmgH8-- ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

[talk-au] Replace all gmap tiles with OSM tiles
I just noticed this in a diary entry, someone has setup a tile server to replace google map tile requests, simply update your hosts file with this entry: 86.57.245.71 mt0.google.com mt1.google.com mt2.google.com mt3.google.com mt.google.com http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Kom%D1%8Fpa/diary/8309 Alternatively you can use a bookmarklet to do it, but that requires you to manually trigger it each time, but that way you can still switch to gmap tiles. http://blog.johnmckerrell.com/2007/12/31/new-version-of-osmify-bookmarklet/ ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

John There's one in Orange too. I'm bemused by the report of roundabout only suitable for Uturns that will make for interesting routing Is that one of those turning circles with a grass/garden bed in the middle? ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] OSM Client for Symbian?
Got it working ok although it chews up quite a bit of memory.. Can mark waypoints but not sure how to translate that to POI's. Excellent application though - and good to see it is still under development. I hope it gets ported across to Maemo. Jason Stirk wrote: I remember there was something odd about it, but I don't remember how I fixed it. You may need to go into Development Menu and select the option talking about using the Jsr179. I have a sneaking suspicion that I needed to restart the app after that, but I don't remember. If it works, you should see 1 device under the GPS menu. Hope this helps.

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?

[talk-au] How to combine img files
I would like to send more than one routable map from this site http://www.osmaustralia.org/garminroute.php to my gps 60csx at the same time so I can display more than one state at a time - I live on the border of one of the tiles. How can I do this? Thanks Gavin ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] navit files
Some experimenting this morning indicates this is fixed in the version I run (svn 2453) cheers On Tue, Oct 13, 2009 at 6:20 PM, Liz ed...@billiau.net wrote: navit files built form osm data don't show a road if there is a reuse of the admin boundary for the road and so navigation around adelaide is going to be really interesting as a lot of main roads have just disappeared please guys don't reuse admin boundaries ( like ABS ) to replace perfectly good data that was already in the database.
