How do you tell the changes from the things that haven't changed when

Had a look, a few errors spotted.


1) Weeney Bay and Quibury Bay are joined together as a way. Need to
separarate them as separate ways. Easiest way is to create 2 filters on each
way. IE Weeney Bay and Quibury Bay. Then you can turn each way off and on to
fix.

2) Botany Bay is still set as coastline.

3) Should set Botany Bay relation as mulipolygon. Then make islands inners
of Botany Bay Multipolygon. Also make other 3 bays as outers.

4) Add extra way for coastline across Botany Bay after removing coastline
from Botany Bay.

I think thats it.

Oh I see now. If the bay is tagged as natural=bay instead of
natural=coastline, then suddenly the mouth of the bay/river creates a
gap/hole for the coastline. So you say, the artificial line that joins
the two heads lands on either side of the entrance becomes a
coastline, even though the line doesn't have land on one side and sea
on the other.

Are they? They look seperate to me in JOSM.

I'm afraid that if I remove the natural=coastline, then mapnik won't
show it up as blue even if it is part of a bay relation. I'm not sure
though.

Okay. If I add the smaller bays as outers (considering they are part
of the larger Botany Bay), then will mapnik render the name in each of
the polygons in the multi polygons, like it does for all the other
multi polygons? I was trying to avoid this, that is why in the second
link I gave to the .osm file I did not set the relation type. So you
think I shouldn't worry about this and use a multipolygon anyway?

>Note: This is of course you are wanting to make the 3 bays part of Botany
bay.

Actually, maybe those bays should not be part of Botany Bay, I guess
it's not universally agreed on. Although there are still other bays
which I think you would consider part of the larger Botany Bay, like
Congwong Bay. The whole point of moving these nodes to areas is that
renders can then choose to show names for large bays on low zooms, and
conversely not show names for very small bays until high zooms. The
same problem arises with bays in rivers, usually the bay is part of
the river, hence you need to start using relations.

Thank you both for the help.

Re: [talk-au] A proposal to change Botany Bay into a relation

2010-10-10 Thread Markus_g
1) Yes the natural= oastline needs to go across the bay entrance if you are
turning it into a bay or river, etc.

2) Have a look at the relation within the relation editor and you should see
that the two bays join as one way and not as two separate polygons.

3)I think it prob isn't part of Botany Bay as the bays have separate names.
This means you won't need a relation and only 4 separate way areas. If
anyone in the future decides they should be all part as Botany bay a
relation can then easily be added.

4) natural=bay should render as blue. If it doesn't then you can change it
to natural=water. You can always send a dirty command to update any tiles
that are wrong.

Regards,

Markus_g

Looks like someone has made a recent error anyway with Botany bay. They have
created a closed bay and marked it as coastline. It should be marked as
natural=bay or natural=water with the coastline across the entrance of the
bay.

I've made the revisions,
http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~amha119/botany-bay-relation2.osm

So I've used the multipolygon to make islands as inner, and left the
other bays are separate bays. After I get this working I can then try
to turn Congwong Bay at the East into an area, and then it can be
debated if that is separate, or part of Botany Bay.

I'll upload this one tomorrow if there are no further objections or suggestions.

Almost.

Okay, I've just moved the bay tags to multipolygon, and added that
small way that closes Bare Island to the multipolygon. I've left the
ABS tags on the outer way, because that is what they are attributing,
the location of the nodes on that way. The fact that the outer way
forms Botany Bay I know from local_knowledge, hence I don't see why
the mulitpolygon should be attributed to ABS.

I also just added the straight coastline that crosses the entrance to the bay.
