2013-05-21 Thread Ciprian Talaba
Sa lamuresc cateva aspecte: Sorein este in continuare abonat la lista,
teoretic primeste mesajele, insa este moderat din motive destul de evidente
zic eu. Orice mesaj venit de la el va ajunge pe lista atat timp cat nu
aduce nici o jignire vreunui membru al comunitatii OSM (nu neaparat RO)
indiferent ca are o editare sau cateva mii.

Legat de strazi, daca sa folosim sau nu Strada X, Str. X, sau X: OSM
*nu este* o harta ci o baza de date. Personal sunt de parere ca daca vrei
rezultate cu adevarat bune folosind datele OSM, vezi avea nevoie de niste
pasi suplimentari, de exemplu o prelucrare automata asupra extrasului
Romaniei care sa inlocuiasca Strada cu Str sau chiar sa o elimine
complet (daca rezultatul final va fi folosit pe dispozitive cu ecran mic),
eventual de schimbarea categoriei unui drum in functie de calitatea
acestuia, si exemplele pot curge. Eu recomand sa folosim un standard care
sa permita astfel de prelucrari automate cat mai usor, iar cel mai simplu
in acest moment este Strada X.

Salut,

Raspunsul lui Michael este OK daca intrebarea se referea la curtea
interioara, dar nu si daca ne referim la curtea din jurul unei case. In
acest caz cred ca termenul corect ar fi de parcela, si din pacate nu am
gasit nici un consens pe Wiki cum ar trebui marcat:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Parcel

Importul facut in Fresno County, California pare ca a folosit
landuse=residential, dar pe pagina de wiki se specifica The landuse tag is
mostly used for larger areas and not at parcel granularity.

Imi pare rau ca nu pot da un raspuns clar la intrebare.

Re: [Talk-ro] Cum fac sa pot sa deschid osm.pbf in Qgis ?

2012-11-02 Thread Ciprian Talaba
Total de acord cu Cristian, PostgreSQL+PostGIS este ceea ce ai nevoie.
Din ce stiu osm2pgsql are suport de PBF (va fi nevoie sa iei probabil
o versiune mai actuala si sa o compilezi din surse), asa ca nu e
necesara conversia la OSM.

Cateva cereri pe care le foloseam eu:

1. Total km de strazi

SELECT sum(ST_Length(way))/1000 as km_roads from planet_osm_line WHERE
highway IN ('motorway', 'trunk', 'primary', 'secondary', 'tertiary',
'unclassified', 'residential', 'service');

2. Total km de poteci, alei

SELECT sum(ST_Length(way))/1000 as km_paths from planet_osm_line WHERE
highway IN ('path', 'pedestrian', 'footway');

3. Total km piste biciclete

SELECT sum(ST_Length(way))/1000 as km_cycle from planet_osm_line WHERE
highway IN ('cycleway');

4. Numar total orase+sate

SELECT COUNT(*) as cities FROM planet_osm_point WHERE place IS NOT NULL;

 Eu n-aș folosi QGIS pentru așa ceva - din experiența mea dacă încarci

 Eu folosesc pbf2osm (acum inlocuit de osmconvert) pentru conversie .pbf la

 Cu excepția faptului că pierzi uniformitatea datorită câtorva excepții
 ȘI strici toate generatoarele de hărți existente - fie ele pe hârtie
 sau electronice.

 Toată discuția a început (din partea mea) de la faptul că excepțiile
 fac dificilă completarea și implementarea hărților, iar voi propuneți
 niște excepții și mai mari.

 Strainu

Uniformitatea este buna cand are ceva real la baza. Din pacate nu e
cazul aici cand diferentele sunt extrem de mari intre ce este oficial
si ce este pe teren. Repet, exceptiile trebuie sa apara doar in cazul
diferentelor mari, nu o sa marcam un DJ care are un asfalt mai prost
ca tertiary, si nici ca primary daca este proaspta asfaltat. Dar daca
este un drum de tara care nu este practicabil cu autoturismele atunci
nu vad la ce foloseste eticheta highway=secondary. Cred ca un tag
highway=track impreuna cu ref=DJ* aduce o informatie in plus:
acesta este un drum judetean doar pe hartie, in realitate este un drum
agricol/forestier.

Si o intrebare un pic separata de subiect: cu ce ajuta uniformitatea
in cazul asta? Prelucrarea automata? Verificari? Poate sunt eu mai
old-fashion, dar cred ca cel putin drumurile ar trebui cartografiate
cu GPS-ul in mana, nu pe baza unor imagini satelitare ;) ceea ce face
prelucrarea automata sa duca la erori.

 Hi,

   at a conference today I met someone who works for EEA in Copenhagen and
 we had a chat about EEA data in OSM. A very friendly chat, I must add, he
 wasn't actually complaining about anything, but he did mention a few
 oddities he found when studying how OSM was using CORINE (and Urban Atlas)
 data.

 I'm listing them here in the hope that maybe some of them can be rectified,
 or avoided in future CORINE imports (hello Dermot!)

 a) Corine Land Cover

 Generally, you can obtain CORINE data from national bodies or from the EEA
 directly. The data sets may be minimally different, and may be licensed
 differently.

 The French import states as their source: Union européenne - SOeS, CORINE
 Land Cover, 2006., where SoeS stands for le service de l'Observation et
 des Statistiques (SOeS) du Commissariat général au développement durable
 (CGDD). This is a French national organisation.

 The Romanian import took their data directly from the EEA (as documented on
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/CLC_RO_Permission), but in their source
 tags they credit SOeS like the French did which is not correct. It would be
 great if this could be fixed, or at least rectified on the wiki page.

 There's also a Spanish, Estonian, and Hungarian CORINE import of which I
 haven't fully investigated the tags. For Hungary,
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalog mentions both the
 national office and the EEA as their source which is porbably not correct
 either.

 b) Urban Atlas

 There's a lot of Urban Atlas-sourced material in OSM was well, most of it
 in Poland or Slovakia. Some of it is tagged only with source=urban atlas
 but there's no mention of the EEA. Much like ourselves, the EEA would prefer
 to be credited properly if their data is used.

 As I said, it's not that EEA are complaining (and they don't have any
 set-in-stone attribution rules anyway, only that you have to attribute) but
 we should certainly aim to do it right!

Re: [OSM-talk] CORINE land cover data

2011-01-03 Thread Ciprian Talaba
Hi Oscar,

I have found different statements about the license of CLC data on the EEA
website at some point so we (Romania's OSM users) took the time to send them
an email asking about using their data in OSM. The response was positive and
was delivered in around 2 weeks. So I recommend to do the same thing if you

Hi David,

Our question was related to OSM in general, not speaking about a specific
license. Their current license makes things much easier (at that time -
November 2009 - things were not that clear); EEA standard re-use policy:
unless otherwise indicated, re-use of content on the EEA website for
commercial or non-commercial purposes is permitted free of charge, provided
that the source is acknowledged [1]

 Hi Ciprian,

 Was this positive response you received, in response to licensing their
 data under the previous OSM licence or the proposed new one?  This is
 something to be mindful of if requesting permission from EEA, and
 continuing to use the data long-term.

 The issues with them changing their licence several times after granting
 permission to use, is not dissimilar to ongoing discussions here.  It is
 important to understand the terms of use of the data that you're using
 and recognising they may be different from a statement given some time
 in the past on the wiki.

Some of the uses I have in mind is to map landuse in villages and
missing roads, for villages where most of the roads have already been
gps-mapped, giving lots of known points to perform the rectification
from.

Now, the images are taken at quite a low angle, so I'll need to recify
them using software, ideally some sort of orthorecification thing in
JOSM, if such is availiable. The tranform will be a basic trapezoid
shape, but with a bottom probably half as long as the top (so the
image taken at 45 degrees) possibly with slightly bowed sides for any
barrel distorion in the lens. Obviously this will only work from items
on the flat plane, but handily that pretty much describes norfolk.

Does anyone have experience of this, who could point me in the
direction of the appropriate JOSM plugin, or external software? I have
Linux (Gentoo) and Windows XP on systems used for mapping.

This must be a fairly common issue for mappers, right?

 As far as I can tell by looking here:

 On the other hand, the API described here:

 What I would like to do is to be able to limit the request to only return
 lists of features of a particular type, e.g. county, state or posal code --
 and, consequently, be able to query much larger regions.

 Is the OSM api capable of this?   If so, is there a place I can read about

Unfortunately I don't see that Wikimapia has the same mission as OSM. They

OSM is about freedom all the way, not about freedom as Google or others
understood it.

About the permission to display and trace from Google imagery, I doubt they
had any contact with Google, they just don't care. Why Google is not
actively working to make sure that their Terms of Service are respected is

 I'm afraid the relation roles are not accessible in the style file.
 Pretty much all the relation processing is handled in the C code and
 each type of relation needs special handling.

 When a route relation is converted into a postgis geometry all of the
 constituent ways are joined into a single linestring. There is no
 obvious place where the role of each individual way could be recorded on
 this linestring.

 One possibility might be to keep the members as separate linestrings for
 and then add an artificial tag, say route_role=... in the output.

 Another approach might be for you to query the planet_osm_rels table
 (provided you imported the data in --slim mode). This contains the raw
 data listing all the relations and their members. Armed with this
 information you could then query the planet_osm_line table to obtain the
 geometry for each of these ways (all the members will probably appear as
 distinct roads in this table).

Jon



Thank you about this info. I will probably start with the last approach
(using planet_osm_rels and planet_osm_line tables) because this will keep my
code separate from osm2pgsql. I will try to publish my tries because I
believe others will be interested in something like this.

 Can you explain how can OSM users then get a history for one city from
 old planet files, that would be really helpful. If this is possible then
 git repository isn't necessary, AFAIK, but I'm not the one who made the
 scripts so maybe there has to be a git repository.

 How can I get snapshots month by month for my home town from january 2006
 to present day via old planet files? Is that possible?


A git repository is certainly not mandatory, but the existing scripts I
mentioned needs this. If you don't want to create/use git for this purpose
it should be easy enough to modify the scripts to use bzipped/gzipped
extracts of a country. And if you do this change please share the scripts
:), I know that a lot of people would like to use this approach.

Frederik, we used a git repository for our Romanian extract for 2 main
reasons:
1. the extract is a XML file so it should be straightforward to use a
versioning system to take care of the history.
2. space constraints: the Romania history from late 2007 to the present is
around 5GB in .gz format, and the whole git repository has 480MB, and this
includes the latest extract, unpacked (260MB), so it's a big improvement.

Valent, how you can get older data is explained very well by Frederik and
Grant in this thread on Talk:
http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2009-October/043705.html
To be more specific, I used the following revisions of the scripts to get a
pre 0.5 extract in the current format:
- r4779 for osm-extract
- r4778 for planetdiff
- r4835 for conv05

Once you have the country format you can use osm2pgsql to insert data in the
database, and you can filter the data to a specific box that will fit your
city.

Hope this clear some points and wil get you started,

As you mentioned in the first paragraph its Romanian, not Bulgarian mappers

 So in order to make this work they made git repository for planet file

 because git repository keeps all changes ever made.

 So in order to make your own animations you need to have your own
 planet.osm git repository. That is the first big hurdle :(

 I hope that OSM creates an official public git repository so that anybody

 to use own Mapnik installation) I was able to generate several films with
 developing the project OSM in Romania. The results are not terribly
 spectacular (see ITO World) but I think the record pretty well out of so
 many people work.


And a little better translation of my post: In order to help Eddy, who was
invited to present OSM on the national TV channel, I took the scripts he
used, and with little changes in order to fit my Mapnik installation I was
able to generate a few movies with the OSM evolution in Romania. The results
are not spectacular (compared to ITO World) but I think they show pretty
well the work of so many people.

Re: [OSM-talk] Older planet files (from 2007)?

2009-10-21 Thread Ciprian Talaba
Hi everybody,

On Fri, Oct 16, 2009 at 9:57 AM, Frederik Ramm frede...@remote.org wrote:

 Yes, it's called planet.openstreetmap.org!

 Note, however, that if you go any earlier than October 2007 you will
 encounter version 0.4 planet files which cannot be processed using today's
 tools. You will have to use SVN to retrieve an old version of

 /applications/utils/osm-extract/planetosm-excerpt-area.pl

 from SVN, and then use

 /applications/utils/conv05/04to05.pl

 to produce a version 0.5 extract which can be processed with today's tools.

 You can also get a primitive history animation (only nodes shown as dots)
 from labs.geofabrik.de/history, or if you give me the bbox then I could
 make an animated GIF like the ones on
 http://www.geofabrik.de/gallery/history/. But I must admit that the ITO
 animations look best so if you get them to do one that would be preferable.

 Frederik



Thanks for all the info. With your help I was able to obtain older extracts
for Romania and to create some evolution movies. They are not great compared
with what ITO have done in the past but they covered our needs (we have also
contacted ITO, actually Peter Miller, but we had limited time to do this,
and we didn't get an answer in this short period).

I had only one small issue with older planet files: after converting from
API 0.4 to API 0.5 some of the ways had members without ref (something like
this:
 way id='23312491' timestamp='2008-03-16T11:15:13+00:00' user='Ciprian'
visible='true'
nd ref='' /
nd ref='' /
/way). I have removed these ways and compared the results using 2 versions
of JOSM (one for 0.4, another for 0.5) and the results were similar, so I
move forward. Is this something that is documented somewhere?

If you want to see the results here are some of them:

I just want to point out that norc.ro have donated another set of tracks
that cover Austria, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania. They have
been already sorted, tagged and uploaded to OSM so you can use them to
create roads using your preferred editor. If you want to know if norc tracks
are available near you, you should visit www.norc.ro and see if they visited

Another reminder that we have been given permission to derive data from

The tracks have been uploaded to OSM under the norcTracks user, so you can

But I recommend to use them from your preferred editor. Here is how the area

[OSM-talk] Ruby Error while adding user as friend?

I am getting a Ruby error when I am trying to add some user as my friend. It

The OpenStreetMap server encountered an unexpected condition that prevented
it from fulfilling the request (HTTP 500)

Feel free to contact http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Contact the

This may be a problem in our Ruby On Rails code. 500 ocurrs with exceptions

 I would suggest you drop this information on a wiki page and ask for
 comments there as well. At face value on what you have put in your email it
 looks similar to other data sets that require attribution. We normally deal
 with that as you say by adding the correct source tag and also placing the
 attribution on the wiki page at
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contributors and or
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Attribution (looks like those two pages
 should be combined or redirect to just one.)

 As a final confirmation its worth writing to the data provider explaining
 the intention and how attribution is dealt with. That at least shows a
 paper
 trail if anyone asks a question at a later date.

 Finally its worth doing any imports under a specifically set up username,
 that way its easy to identify the original upload of data.

 Hope these pointers help.

This question arise on the Romanian OSM list. We are trying to get
multipolygons rendered in Mapnik and we are following the instructions on
the Wiki page: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:multipolygon. So
we are trying with no tags on the inner way and the building is still not
rendered in Mapnik (it is fine in Osmarender). The building is the one name
'AJOFM Huneadoara' from here:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=45.881101lon=22.900908zoom=18layers=B000FTF
.

The interesting fact is that I used a different approach a couple of months
ago (when direction of the way counted, and with tags on both ways) and
those buildings are render just fine even now. When I tried to help our
collegue with his building and applying the same rules that worked before I
still have the same results (no hole rendered).

What are we doing wrong? How should we tag the building to get rendered with
Mapnik?

[OSM-talk] Matching existing OSM data with third party coordinates

2009-02-13 Thread Ciprian Talaba
We have received data from a company that employs a service similar to
Google Street View, and they are asking some questions on how to use our
data as a base layer. They want to do something like this: they have some
coordinates for their panoramas, and want to snap these images to the
nearest vector in OSM. The reason is pretty simple, they want to have nice
output, and to give the impressions that the map and images are matching.

Do you know how they can achieve something like this (using free or
commercial product)?

Thanks!

Regards,
Ciprian
