[OSM-talk-ie] Using CC-BY datasets on data.gov.ie for OSM - Good to go :)
Folks, I've received clarification that while the CC-BY 4.0 license is not suitable for merging with OSM, the granting of explicit permission to use CC-BY 4.0 datasets by the relevant owner is allowed. I have gotten that explicit permission for all datasets contained on data.gov.ie (over 4,500 datasets). A PDF of the email permission will be saved on the wiki later this evening. Note, this ONLY covers datasets under CC-BY 4.0. There are a handful of datasets under other licences on that site so be aware of this when selecting a dataset. So, whats next? Basically, everyone is free to start trawling through that site for any datasets that might be of use to us, however, there are some existing guidelines and requirements if anyone is looking to do any imports [1]. With this in mind, and to ensure some kind of coordination and logical approach (agreed tagging etc), I threw together a wiki page [2] as a central spot to list any datasets that are potential options. I've tried to keep it simple on that page so there should not be much of a burden on any one person while gathering a min amount of info about each dataset. Any dataset that looks like it might be useful to us should get put up onto that page. I've thrown up a good few as a start to give an idea of what is available. If anyone is interested in reviewing these, how I'm doing it is going in alphabetical order of the publishers (link at the top of the site) and reviewing everything under a publisher before moving on to the next one. You can see the last one I checked (at the moment Cork City Council) on the wiki page as its the most recent dataset listed. When reviewing potential datasets, something to keep in mind is that while one dataset might look midly interesting, it may contain a goldmine of additional data as part of additional attribute info. One example of this is where a dataset containing locations of street lamps might seem a bit over the top to import, the raw data may also contain street names and other valuable data so be sure to dig into the attribute data before dismissing a potential source. From that page, we can discuss each dataset as we work through them i.e. some may be suitable for doing automated style imports, others may be purely manual while others still might involve a hybrid approach e.g. maproulette/layers etc. Once agreed, each will get its own import page, see [3] as an example. Once completed, each one will also get listed under the Ireland section of the contributors page [4]. As regards issues that may come up, please feed them back to the mailing list. This includes data quality, licencing, data errors, formats, corrupt sources etc etc. The reason I want to collect this particular information is, after speaking with Denis Parfenov, a board member of the Open Data Governance Board, the board is looking for OSM Ireland to come and present to the ODGB in early 2017 on our experiences in using the data, what more we want and anything else that may seem relevant. [5] Once its closer to the time I'll be putting together a presentation and looking for feedback from this list. Looking forward to seeing what opportunities this brings.

Hi all, These might fill the need https://data.gov.ie/dataset/primary-schools https://data.gov.ie/dataset/post-primary-schools If there are folks here with the skills, a schools mapping task could be coordinated through maproulette.

Yep, that was me. In February this year I looked into it[1]. I tried to geocode the addresses. But Irish addresses are very hard to geocode.

The Dept of Education already has a webpage which has the location of schools[2]. I suspect Daft are using that. It's just that that page has no copyright information, which means it's "all rights reserved", and not usable for us in OSM. It's possible the location of the school is based off OSi maps or something. If someone wants to ask the Dept.

[OSM-talk-ie] Wanted OSM shapefile of Ireland and province outlines, otherwise blank
The Genealogical Society of Ireland are collaborating with the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland on local greatgrandparent DNA comparisions. They have been using OSM with leaflet layers showing the centroids, areas covered by each group of eight greatgrandparents and and their individual locations beside an interactive list of participants. (which my son and I did for them as they had some difficulties using Google) I have now been asked if I can provide them with an OSM shapefile of all Ireland with provincial boundaries but no other detail. They needed one for a poster for display at a conference in the Conway Institute in UCD this week and settled for just an Ireland outline. Because this study when complete will be published internationally i would like them to be able to use OSM for all map images. Please can someone either send me a file or explain to me how I can create one for them. Thanks ___ Talk-ie mailing list Talk-ie@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ie
