Re: [OSM-talk-ie] FW: map for townlands project

Hi Gill,

On the top menu in Josm, you'll see an option for "Imagery". Click that and
look for British War Office 3906 or GSGS 3906. Sorry, can't recall the
exact name, but it will be under the imagery menu.

Hi,I am a novice and trying to work out how to open up the map from Map Warper 
into JOSM. Any help would be most appreciated here. This has been set as an 
exercise for an assignment and I have been working on this all day and just 
cannot see how to do this.Many thanks.

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Townland mapping, time for another update I think

Michael,

I hope you don't mind my taking liberties but I've moved some of your
rectification points in Mapwarper and the map looks reasonably OK now
(there are a couple of green points but most are blue).

My general advice when starting warping would be:

1. Look at the road network at the corners of the map and see if you can
find the corresponding roads using the Bing imagery, Streams and river
confluences are not necessarily a good idea because they can physically
change over time (and streams aren't always accurately drawn in the first
place). If one of the corners doesn't have any road network (which is the
case for the north-west corner of 14-15-SW) then try to get as near the
corner as you can.
2. Use the Bing imagery to ensure that the road network is correctly traced
in OSM and change it if necessary..
3. Then place rectified co-ordinates at those four corners. This will at
least give you a rough but reasonably accurate initial warp which you can
then refine later.

Regards,

Paddy Matthews.

Hi Michael,

As Donal uploaded sheets to Mapwarper I added links to Mapcraft however I
am behind adding links that's why you don't see a link from Mapcraft. You
can add this link yourself, many people have.

As for not having much to rectify against, I've come up against this too.
The only solution is to map some features against which you can rectify.

In Mapcraft, when you click on the tile you want, you will see a "remote"
button with Josm open. This will open only this area of OSM data in Josm.

Hi All

Having difficulty warping 14/15 SW,requested  on 19th March

 the link given in response to my request for this is



http://mapwarper.net/maps?field=title&query=IRL-GSGS-3906-14-15&show_warped=0


The OSM layer given on this page seriously lacks detail  which is widely
available on other layers  and  this makes accurate rectifying difficult

The cropping and rectifying I have done only show on this website   and not
elsewhere , nothing shows up on Mapcraft

As is clearly obvious I am low tech and not a very skilled mapper  and new
to Townlands  but hope I can contribute .



Problem - the Instruction Video indicates access through Mapcraft



Help welcome
