[OSM-talk-be] TEC Open Data (+ SNCB)

[Julien Fastré]

Hi,

May be you missed this :
http://datanews.levif.be/ict/actualite/les-tec-wallons-s-ouvrent-a-l-open-data/article-4000533615697.htm

tldr; : The TEC will open datasets, they made the announce last week at
Ghent.

I made some research and did not found any data yet. But I found those
datasets, *WHICH ARE STILL NOT REFERENCED AS OPEN DATA* and therefore
may not be integrated into OSM :
http://geoportail.wallonie.be/cms/render/live/fr/sites/geoportail/contents/metadata/plainData/47676af7-aab3-4d2e-9c9c-cd86e7ad7241.html

I checked the data in QGIS with orthophoto from the waloon regio, and
there are some decalage (I do not know the word in English). We must use
those data carefully fi those files are published later. :-)

A last word: Champs Libres produced this map :
http://www.navetteurs.be/index.php?option=com_contentview=articleid=5451
, extracting geographical data from the OSM database. We saw that 12
stations were missing, and we corrected them into OSM :-). We may think
that all railway stations in Wallonia are registered now (but maybe not
entirely correctly... some were weird, like area next to the railways, ...).

I was there, if I understood correctly, they are still in the process of
doing the work that is needed to release the data properly.

You can try and contact this person for more information:

Met vriendelijke groeten,

Wow, that is great news. Hopefully they will choose for an open data
license which is compatible with ODBL.

For the stops of De Lijn, we are repositioning them manually before
uploading to OSM. There are 4000 left to do (stops which are served by
buses). The decalage shouldn't be a problem. It is reassuring that they are
using the 'stop position' of their buses when the doors open to let people
board. All those buses have GPSs aboard and they are taking the center of
the 'cloud' of points.
So most of those positions should be quite accurate.

Anyway, we shouldn't 'import' them wholesale as they come, but rather
trickle them in checking them. I hope they include zone information. De
Lijn doesn't and looking up the zones takes most of the time processing
them.

I also hope they will provide csv files with dumps from their DB like De
Lijn does. This enables me to generate route relations with all stops in
the order they are served.

Cheers,

Polyglot
