Re: [Talk-in] Adding missing towns and villages to OSM

[Yogesh योगि]

The WikiMiniAtlas does provide the map with an overlay of all language 
geocoded articles from Wikipedia[1], but the basemap is without any 
labels[2] as they're provided through json overlays[3][4].

Its not ok for a direct import either, but can help as a reference

data yet.

Ishan,
As Justin said there is no licensing requirements for the GNS
data, but there are a lot of errors in the data as the GNS data is
too outdated. We can't directly import the whole data, but can do
it with the reference of local mappers. It would be really good if
the local mappers would contribute in their surrounding regions
with the GNS layer reference.

Re: [Talk-in] Roads in India: How complete is OpenStreetMap ?

[Yogesh योगि]

Hi Naveen,

Blog from Mikel shows that in India only 21% of roads are mapped. 
[ref: CIA factbook ]


https://www.mapbox.com/blog/how-complete-is-openstreetmap/

https://gist.github.com/tcql/0d7ad9b32afbea76f615

Is there any further analysis by states or type of road ?


The India:Roads OSM wiki page[1] has some status on the percentage of SH 
roads mapped and other details, although I couldn't see much recent 
updates on individual State pages except in Karnataka[2] and Kerala[3] 
State pages. From the wiki page, it looks like much of the Haryana[4], 
Karnataka, Maharastra[5] and Rajasthan[6] State Highways are completed. 
But it may also be the case that other States' SH might have been done 
but not updated on the OSM wiki page.

What should we do with invented data in OSM and Wikipedia!

Hello,

I have a small problem. Some User from a small village fakes the data in 
Wikipedia and also here in OSM. The Problem is that he invented the 
National Highways NH233A and NH233B.


Around every 3 month he tries to implement the wrong data in OSM.  
Normally I repair afterwards every relation, road classification and 
wrong naming. Afterwards he created 5 to 10 accounts and tried again to 
implement the wrong data. But this is from me no problem.


I wrote all Users that they shouldn’t implement wrong data but I got 
never a reply.


Now my question:

How we get permanently the wrong data out of Wikipedia and is there 
maybe somebody with Hindi skills to write a message?

[Talk-in] Fwd: Collaborating with OSM Community

[Yogesh योगि]

Hey everyone,

FSMK(Free Software Movement Karnataka) has been conducting residential 
camps in various engineering colleges every year for students completely 
dedicated to Free and Open Source Software technologies.


In the last year's camp, we had a OSM 
event(http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/India/Events/Mapping_Party_in_FSMK_Summer_Camp,_Bangalore) 
and it would be great if members from OSM community can collaborate with 
FSMK for the OSM event in this year's camp(http://camp.fsmk.org/) as 
well and take it further with college GLUGs(GNU/Linux User Groups).

Yogi,

We could not take the relationship with OSM as a community in
later activities. We would like to explore how we can both work
together as like-minded communities starting with this camp.

In the current context of upcoming camp (camp.fsmk.org), we look
forward to OSM's support beyond inviting resource persons to conduct
the workshop, to collaborate effectively in various areas. One options
is to collaboratively organize events by leveraging the strong network
of GLUGs in engineering colleges across Karnataka.. Please feel free
to share with rest of your organizers and we can discuss further.

As an immediate action item we would request few of OSM community
members to be available during camp. We would like to allocate 1-2
hours of slot during the camp to introduce about the community and
different other initiatives. We also plan off line mapping activities
for a hands on mapping experience during the camp.

We hope that such collaboration will help people from both
communities to an exposure to each other.

Though we discussed this many times , I just made this mail bit formal
to set the context clear for others if you are thinking of forwarding
it to someone from the community.



Regards
SHIJIL

Re: [Talk-in] Regionwise offline maps in OsmAnd

[Yogesh योगि]

Great! Looks like the splits are somehow useful. :)

Language labels can be easily switched using the Menu options inside the 
app. In the latest version of OsmAnd, select your map language in 
options Configure map -> Map language.[1] In older versions(>2.0), this 
is under General settings -> Localization -> Map preferred language.[2] 
Changing map language is the built in feature. Since the OsmAnd uses 
offline vector maps, changes like this are rendered on the fly[3].


The current OsmAnd version has only Hindi enabled in the list and 
hopefully upcoming releases may include other indic languages like 
Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, etc.,.[4] I'll also be adding Kannada to the 
list. But right now, except Kannada and Marathi, objects in OSM data 
with other Indic langauges are very less and we need to improve this to 
make them show up on map.[5]

Re: [Talk-in] Taginfo for India OSM

Hi Naveen,

To get the length of roads in OSM, tools like road_length 
<https://github.com/yogiks/osmium-contrib/tree/master/road_length> and 
osm-length 
<http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/utils/filter/osm-length/> can 
be helpful(Anyone else know other programs?). Other way of doing 
this(I've never tried) can be loading osm2pgsql database with 
geofabrik's India OSM extract and running required queries.


Tried Frederik's osm-length-2.pl 
<http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/utils/filter/osm-length/osm-length-2.pl> 
with Bengaluru

As per the tagging scheme

most of the NH except few Urban Arterial Roads are tagged as 
highway=trunk <http://taginfo.openstreetmap.in/tags/highway=trunk#map>. 
So length of trunk can approximately tell the NH coverage in OSM.

[Talk-in] Fwd: [OSM-talk] Neat use of OpenStreetMap

[Yogesh योगि]

Some of the cell towers( 0.8k) and wifis(2.17k) in India 
 are also covered, which is 
very less.!


Android app is available on f-droid 
 
to map them for the openbmap.org database.

OpenBMap 

It's similar to Google's location services or Mozilla's location 
service, but free.  You can make use of it as a location provider in 
Android using the OpenBMap plugin 
 
for microG unified NLP.  And you can contribute data as well using the 
Radiobeacon app 
.  Seems to be 
in it's very early stages right now, but could be a real powerhouse with 
a little extra effort.

[Talk-in] Taginfo for India OSM

[Yogesh योगि]

Hey everyone,

Now that we have openstreetmap.in and tasking manager instance for OSM 
India, we can slowly start setting up other things around OSM. On this 
front, I have been testing and running updates for a week now on OSM 
India taginfo test instance set up at - 
http://rmsa.karnatakaeducation.org.in/. This taginfo instance is based 
on the Geofabrik extract 
 which is 
updated daily. Please have a look at it and if all is fine, I can set it 
up at - taginfo.openstreetmap.in


Taginfo helps in finding and aggregating information about OSM tags and 
setting it up for India will help us to know stats of some of the 
interesting keys/tags like postal_code 
, and 
also some interesting reports 
 of OSM India tag data.



thanks,

[Talk-in] Evolution of Karnataka Roads in OSM

[Yogesh योगि]

Here's a simple animation showing the evolution of Karnataka OSM roads 
from a small line in 01/2007 to huge road network in 12/2014-


https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yogiks/osmanimations/master/Karnataka%202007%20to%202014.gif

Used the OSM full history extract of India 
 
to create this. There's a small how-to at the end of this dairy entry 
 if anyone's 
interested to try it for other regions. :)

This was discussed on a osm-talk thread last week and thought sharing 
the same here would be helpful for new mappers -

Re: [Talk-in] Automating OSM translation into Indic languages

[Yogesh योगि]

Have been using Nomino locally for sometime. Right now, the user has to 
manually input the name/object ids to add/edit name tags but it'd be 
great if we can automate the process of getting the OSM object ids 
either with APIs or atleast with csv for specific area within the bbox 
of the map.


Had extracted Karnataka OSM nodes(no ways/relations) which have name* 
tags in csv to try this but couldn't get it right -

https://gist.github.com/yogiks/997e45111cd4f5dad817

Nomino is written in php  and uses 
yapafo  API for saving data to OSM which currently 
has some issues .

Re: [Talk-in] Weekend Mapping: Shravanabelagola

Locally most of these roads are named after the village names to which 
the road connects but officially there might not be any reference 
numbers as such.

Has very useful information of Indian post offices. I could put Head
Post offices and Branch Post offices data with extracted Karnataka place
nodes with postal_code tag - http://yogiks.github.io/osmplaces-pcodes/

More than half of the places in Karnataka which have post offices are
been mapped with postal_code tag but few have been actually mapped with
post offices.

Also added this dataset as potential data source to map post offices in
India to OSM wiki -
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dpost_office#Potential_data_source
which could help mappers in India to map post offices.

And there's
*post_office:type*(http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:post_office:type)**which
is a sub-key of *amenity=post_office*. Although its differently used in
different parts of the world, shall we use this key for specifying
whether a post office is Head PO/Branch/Sub offices in India as per the
pincode directory dataset.?

Although generally we see most of the towns/cities pincodes start with

One of the fine examples of using OSM at the grassroots level.
Well documented with nice pictures, will certainly help other local
governments engaged in similar efforts. :) Loved the Malayalam map and
GNOME being used in Malayalam. :) :)

[Talk-in] Fwd: OpenStreetMap events in 2015

[Yogesh योगि]

No SoTM from OSMF this year.. But there'd be SoTM-US and SoTM-Scotland
in June and October respectively..

 Forwarded Message 
Subject:OpenStreetMap events in 2015

From:   OpenStreetMap


OpenStreetMap events in 2015

The OpenStreetMap Foundation has been organising the annual State of the
Map (SotM) conference since 2007. These events have proved popular with
our community and beyond, and have grown from a few dozen attendees to a
high of 300 attendees at SotM 2013. This year we had two good bids to
host SotM 2015, but issues beyond our control caused concerns about
whether we could make this into a success. The SotM working group, with
the support of the OSMF board, has therefore agreed that there will be
no OSM Foundation organised conference this year.

As the OpenStreetMap community has grown over the last 10 years, so has
the conference scene. Even without OSMF organising a conference this
year, there will still be a number of OSM-centered conferences,
including SotM US  at the UN’s New York
headquarters in June, and SotM-Scotland
 in
October. There are also many webinars, mapping parties, hack events and
socials planned  for
2015.

UN General Assembly hall 

SotM-US will be held at the UN headquarters in New York, 6-8 June 2015

The StateoftheMap Organizing Committee

has taken on a number of new members to support our efforts in 2015,
2016 and beyond. We are currently drafting a proposal on the future of
SotM in which we are looking at the role of SotM within the project and
how the OSMF SotM relates to the various regional events. We already
have some views but we encourage you to share yours in the comments below.

Preparations for State of the Map 2016 will be starting soon and we
encourage local groups who may be interested in hosting SotM in their
home country to contact us early.
