[talk-au] Strained relations
Hi, Whilst replacing tainted data with good data (in areas that I have personally surveyed), I'm sure that I have broken some relations. So firstly, apologies to the guy/s in Canberra that have done some magnificant work with relations here. I have been attempting to fix any relations that I have broken, but I'm not too good (yet) at them and so have probably messed them up a bit. Once all our roads are secure I will spend the time needed to fix all the relations properly. Nick ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] Strained relations
The data.gov.au ODbL re-licencing means we could reimport the ACT bus route relations from http://data.gov.au/dataset/journey-planner-data-act/ using a version of http://code.google.com/p/gtfs-osm-sync/ that still does relations.

I'll still try to fix them as I break then since it's good practice but I guess we should import them periodically anyway to remain current.

[talk-au] Remapping Sydney's railways
Just a heads up... I've started remapping Sydney's railway lines, given about 80% of them are marked to be wiped. I am a CityRail train driver and regularly travel over most of these train lines and have intimate knowledge of them - including track direction, electrification details, location of points, names of tracks and sidings, speeds, etc.. and I also do a lot of GPS traces while driving trains. I don't mind undertaking this task, and once complete I'll add the passenger route relations. At this stage I'll stick with what I know best - i.e. the Sydney suburban area bounded by Berowra, Bondi Junction, Cronulla, Waterfall, Macarthur, Emu Plains and Richmond. My focus will be on the actual train tracks first. Thought I'd let the community know, so that others may concentrate their efforts on remapping other priority stuff - and I guess it makes sense to start with things you know the most about. I just want to add, that I think the original v1 creator of Sydney's railways (JohnSmith) had done a fantastic job, and I had shown a few people at RailCorp who were very impressed with the level of detail - so I want it on record that I take no pleasure in having to delete and remap his fantastic work, but I guess it's time to bunker down because it just has to be done.

However, for the record, all of Sydney's railways were largely mapped before JohnSmith. I'm confident there would be substantial history there that could be recovered for most rail lines and stations prior to his involvement if required (although the degree to which it was compliant would still have to be determined). Regardless, I'm sure your remapping will be superior. Ian. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

Ian Wrote "Regardless, I'm sure your remapping will be superior." Absolutely agree - on the ground mapping from someone in the business is as good as it can get. It will always be spot on accurate and also up-to-date. I'd remap Canberra Railway station except that they are going to shove it out to Fyshwick (I'll map in out there).

Re: [talk-au] Strained relations
If the Relation was set up by a contributor who has disagreed what happens? I assume it would need to be removed. I don't know how to tell who put in a relation. Peter W34 ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
