That’s indeed the (fun) challenge ☺
Luckily, there are already some good sources available. Two I’ve used:

·   for some of the municipalities, Wikipedia offers a lot of information, 
see e.g. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_des_rues_de_Schaerbeek

·   http://www.irismonument.be often has good info, e.g. 
http://www.irismonument.be/nl.Elsene.Francois_Stroobantstraat.html 
http://www.irismonument.be/fr.Ixelles.Rue_Francois_Stroobant.html (you can just 
enter the street name in their search box)

Yes, that's the big question mark for the event !
We'll hope to attract people with such knowledge and/or hope to find the 
information online somehow !

That's one of the reason we decided not to edit OpenStreetMap directly during 
the event !

But the final process will get the gender from the wikidata "page" (if there is 
a wikidata "page" for every person that have a street with their name).

Hi Jonathan,

If I may, a few remarks:

·   Given this workflow, I wonder whether we can drop the focus on 
Wikipedia (to save work/time): 1) If there is an existing Wikipedia page, it 
will probably already be linked to the corresponding Wikidata item. 2) If we 
put a Wikidata tag on a street in OSM, I personally see no reason to add a 
Wikipedia tag as well, as the Wikipedia page can be found through the Wikidata 
item (I now not all data consumers will work like that, but I feel they should 
be educated to do so ☺ )

·   I guess the link between OSM street and Wikidata item for that street 
will be done beforehand (automagically)? In that case, we could really focus on 
the people behind the street names and only fill in the name:etymology:wikidata

Hello everyone,

The initial (and main) goal of the project is indeed to link streets in 
Brussels from OpenStreetMap with the wikidata "page" of the person present in

BUT we got in contact with Romain (Wikimedia Belgium) and he told us that he is

For every street in Brussels, we'll add the `wikidata` tag and the

My workflow is the following :

 *   Since almost all the streets have an `associatedStreet` relation in 
Brussels, I'll start with that and add the streets missing ;
 *   Take the already existing `wikidata` and `name:etymology:wikidata`

 *   Romain will provide us the `wikidata` tag for all the streets ;
  *   Next Monday (17/02), we (OSMBE + OKBE + WikimediaBE) organize and event

 *   Exact procedure is not defined yet ;
 *   Procedure will be documented and we'll ask feedback from the community 
BEFORE running it ;
Everything will be documented in a GitHub repository and on OSM wiki (as soon 
as I have a little time) !

Long story short, any feedback is more than welcome but let's not step upon 
each other and try to coordinate our effort !
I've been hired by Open Knowledge Belgium to work on that project.

OK, in that case, we'll have to go back to the original source, Urbis if we 
want to add coordinates for the streets to Wikidata.

I always thought that if I'm the one who adds features to OSM myself, or if I'm 
the one who places them at their correct spot, using aerial imagery that the 
data was mine and I could contribute it to Wikidata, if that pleases me. But 
maybe I shouldn't link back to OSM in that case in the reference url.

Seppe, Joost and Jonathan's project is about linking through 
name:etymology:wikidata to persons, and add those persons to Wikidata if they 
don't exist there yet. No addition of geodata involved in that  case.

I know that Romaine has the wish for several years now, to add the streets of 
Brussels themselves to Wikidata.

IMHO, that is a derivative database. You look at OSM data, apply some
algorithm and create new data.
AFAIK, the project that Seppe, Joost and Jonathan have will not add
such data, but if you want to do it, you might contact the LWG to be
sure it's OK. I doubt it is.

2020-02-11 Thread Jo
OK, in that case, we'll have to go back to the original source, Urbis if we
want to add coordinates for the streets to Wikidata.

I always thought that if I'm the one who adds features to OSM myself, or if
I'm the one who places them at their correct spot, using aerial imagery
that the data was mine and I could contribute it to Wikidata, if that
pleases me. But maybe I shouldn't link back to OSM in that case in the
reference url.

Seppe, Joost and Jonathan's project is about linking through
name:etymology:wikidata to persons, and add those persons to Wikidata if
they don't exist there yet. No addition of geodata involved in that  case.

I know that Romaine has the wish for several years now, to add the streets
of Brussels themselves to Wikidata.

 Cheers,

Jo

IMHO, that is a derivative database. You look at OSM data, apply some
algorithm and create new data.
AFAIK, the project that Seppe, Joost and Jonathan have will not add

Re: [OSM-talk-be] 17/02: Towards Equal Street Names with Open Data

2020-02-10 Thread Jo
Hi,

I used Overpass API to generate a list of unique street names in the
Brussels Region:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MsII28mSORExmGhxAFPCON4GK3Zpg-BUbvy8eauy63I/edit?usp=sharing

It is easy to find streets that are not mapped entirely bilingually. I
should have included the id and then created an easy way to link back to
JOSM. Not sure why I didn't think of that before. I might still do it, but
then using the associatedStreet relations, which most of the streets in
Brussels still seem to have. (I'm glad for this, I know it's not a popular
one)

I think we should create wikidata items for the streets themselves as well.

About the geocoding. If I look at the street in my JOSM, then create a node
somewhere in the center of it and then add the coordinates of that node to
Wikidata, did I violate any rights? If it does, we could use Urbis data to
source coordinates for the whereabouts of the street. I'm not using any
nodes of the street itself. I do try to link back to openstreetmap (one of
the ways or associatedStreet relation) in the reference url field.

I agree that if we were to add full polylines based on all the nodes of the
street, there would be an issue, but I don't think anyone wants to do that.

That won't be the purpose of the workshop.
Main goal is to link to link streets in OSM with the person they were named 
after, either directly through name:etyomolgy:wikidata or indirectly via the 
(already existing) Wikidata item of the street and the "named after" property.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] 17/02: Towards Equal Street Names with Open Data

2020-02-04 Thread marc marc
if the primary goal is to render according to gender, shouldn't the
workflow sort the streets according to the available information (all
the "Virginia A. streets" are probably female, right?) in order to
target first the streets where the gender is unknown (no first name or
abbreviation to expend in osm).

i find it very difficult to find the etymology of a street : it's not
because there is a very well known "Jean de la Fontaine" that all the
"Rue Jean de la Fontaine" talk about him. we risk adding supposed
information which would destroy the interest of the tag
name:etymology:wikidata when it's not necessary for gender rendering.

I'd strongly suggest including an easy default path for when people aren't sure.
If you use a completion metric, choosing "not sure" should imo also increase 
the completion
percentage, so that people are less psychologically pushed to add such data.

Additionally, if someone chose "not sure" and a second person chooses "not 
sure", I would avoid
showing it to any more people.

Why?

Adding name:etymology:wikidata is not that trivial. It requires some 
dedication. In the examples
below, I'm afraid that people who are given just the goal of completing gender 
will be inclined to
just pick one. That's harmful to the data quality.

Some examples from my experience Wikidatafying Blankenberge:
There's just a surname:
- Mametstraat: David, Zosia, Raymond, Clara, Magda, Julien...

or an initial letter and surname:
- J. De Meyerstraat: lots of people match that

or the street has first and last name, but there are multiple people called 
like that:
- Maurits Sabbepad: a writer, but also a theologian

or you can't find any information:
- Frans Feverystraat: The top search results for "Frans Fevery" are 
about the street. :p
  You could create a Wikidata item for them, see 
the last paragraph.

I was planning to bother my municipality to make them help me 
disambiguating those, based on
the records of the street name decision process.

Some other challenges:
Different spellings (should be added to "also known as" in Wikidata when 
found):
- Albert Ruzettelaan: in Wikidata as "Albéric Ruzette"
This could result in duplicate entries.

Often you have to take into account the context:
- Albertstraat and Elisabethstraat running in parallel: Albert I and 
his wife
- lots of surnames of painters in same neighbourhood

Streets named after non-persons. If you use completion metric, how will you 
deal with them? In
Blankenberge, I have been adding the thing they're named after.
- Vissersstraat: fisher

But sometimes, it's just not clear what they're named after:
- Duindistellaan: I can't find any indication that this is a real 
plant. Just a thistle
  that happens to grow in the dunes?
- Colombus (not Columbus)

If it's clear a person has no item yet, one should be created. It's nice if 
some research is done:
what made them famous enough to get a street name? Sometimes you find 
something, sometimes you
don't. In the latter case you can create a rather uninformative item with just 
"instance of: human"
and "sex or gender". But when there's information available on the web, imo it 
would be a shame not
to add it.

Kind regards,
Midgard

Re: [OSM-talk-be] 17/02: Towards Equal Street Names with Open Data

Hi,

I did this for one street in Evere:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/523050554/history

Took me more than half an hour for a single street (no automation). I
created a wikidata entry both for the person and for the street itself.
Things are complicated by the bilingual nature of the city and because this
street also had an old name.

Is that what we will be doing? Or did I somehow misunderstand?

Re: [OSM-talk-be] 17/02: Towards Equal Street Names with Open Data

A few years ago I created this script to interlink schools in Uganda to
wikidata. No idea if it would be useful:

https://github.com/PolyglotOpenstreetmap/Python-scripts-to-automate-JOSM/blob/master/UseWDTKtoCreateWDitems.py


To run it in JOSM, you'd need the scripting plugin, jython.jar and the
Wikidata Toolkit jar.

I'm proposing to make this simpler for this year's Google Summer of Code,
so all comments are welcome.
