Re: [talk-au] Sign detections from OpenStreetCam

Ah, nice - and compared to the mapillary ones, has picked out school
zone/hours/etc very well (at least in the example provided)

Will be great when https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues/4851 gets
into ID; possibly https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues/5666 gets
sorted out too.

[talk-au] Sign detections from OpenStreetCam

[Martijn van Exel]

Hi all,

You will remember from my previous messages to this list that OpenStreetCam 
held a competition to collect imagery in Australia (as well as in New Zealand). 
The winners have their gift cards, but the community as a whole gains as well. 
Our map team used the contributed imagery to generate a large enough training 
set for our sign detection platform to learn 45+ (and growing) 
Australia-specific sign types. You can use the detected signs to map in JOSM 
(iD in the future) if you install the OpenStreetCam plugin.

New imagery captured will be analyzed for signs almost immediately. If you go 
to your own trips you can click on the ‘detections’ tab to see results. 
Example: https://openstreetcam.org/details/999263/314/detections 
 

Note that none of this data will be added to OSM automatically — it is 
available for the community to use.

Here’s a blog post with some more detail:

I hope that you will keep contributing to OSC to improve coverage and generate 
more of this useful mapping data.

Happy mapping,
