Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Talk-ie Digest, Vol 83, Issue 10

[Brian Hollinshead]

Daniel kindly asked for suggested topics for discussion on Saturday so here
are some.

1)
histosm.org or the history page with date slider. (It seems to vanish from
time to time)
I have been adding to OSM some historic admin boundaries
dublin south union
trinity ward (1849)
rathmines township 1847   etc

as you cannot see them on the ground perhaps when I have been shown how
please, I should remove them intact to the history page server?

2)
Some discussion on how to best search for (and find) some boundaries or
other features if you do not have the full title.

3)
usage of leaflet and maperitive for producing web overlays and printed maps
with specific items emphasized.

4)
Whether we should have an OOC layer for 6inch OS on
maps.openstreetmpa.ie/oocmaps?

5)
Whether it is desirable and if it can be done, to improve the my user
experience with maps.openstreetmap.ie on say a 7" tablet by having an
enlarged pop-up mini window with the two or three overlay choices when I
hit two or more of them by mistake. Can ably demonstrate my difficulty with
this on Saturday.

6)As the Poor Law Union areas coincided with the Superindentent Registrar's
Districts (so important to genealogists) for many decades we might consider
adding them as an overlay option to maps.openstreetmap.ie

Donal, please forgive me, maybe one of the others might offer help with
some of the above if being acted on. Your spendid layers on
maps.openstreetmap.ie along with Rory's townlands.ie have brought gasps of
amazement and admiration from many local studies librarians when I have
shown them.

7)I have, from the Library Developemnt Section of the LGMA,  an excel
spreadsheet with email addresses for most of the County Librarian, with
permission to send an introductory email, Maybe someone could please
compose a suggested mail and post it here or bring it for discussion on
Saturday.

That's all I have, See you Saturday.
