[talk-ph] Google WMS JOSM

2010-03-30 Thread maning sambale
There is java program that can access google tiles in JOSM (java app
for OSM editing).  While JOSM was developed primarily for OSM editing,
you can use it outside OSM.  I also use JOSM in some mapping projects
because the editing functions are better than most GIS apps I use.

However, any edits derived from big G's tiles shouldn't be uploaded in
the OSM database.   Full discussion here:
http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2010-March/049330.html

Please resist any temptation to click the "UPLOAD" button when you are
using this Google WMS program.

Re: [talk-ph] banks or ATMs?

2010-03-30 Thread maning sambale
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Bank

You can add atm=yes for banks with ATM.  For ATMs only, amenity=atm.
My personal practice, I don't add atm=yes for most banks (in most
cases ATMs are available), of course you can atm=no for banks without
atms.

This is great! But first, please clear up with the license.

[talk-ph] osm-ph garmin map users do not tag for the renderer (Fwd: ref tags seem to override name tags on ways in the Garmin maps)

2010-03-30 Thread maning sambale
Dear OSM-PH Garmin Users,

Eugene reminded me that some contributors are removing the ref tags on
major roads in Metro Manila.  The reason was because this was shown in
the OSM-PH Garmin Maps.  This is classic case of tagging for the
renderer:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tagging_for_the_renderer

Please don't do this.  File a bug report in the OSM-PH Garmin map
tracsvn site if you have issues with the Garmin Map style and we will
fix them as soon as we can.

Subject: ref tags seem to override name tags on ways in the Garmin maps
To: maning sambale 


Hi maning,

I've been noticing that some contributors have been deleting the ref
tags (C-4, R-3) from EDSA and SLEX. I've asked them why they're doing
this and apparently, it's because what gets displayed as the "title"
in the Garmin units is the ref value instead of the expected name.

Can this be fixed on the mkgmap options?

Eugene

Re: [talk-ph] RFC: Planned Arivac Bohol Data Import

2010-03-30 Thread maning sambale
POIs done (1979 nodes in all)!

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/4282186

The initial POI tags are here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Philippines/Data_import_Arivac_Bohol#POI_tags

Sample tagging
OSM added tags
amenity:clinic
clinic:public
source:arivac
source:url:http://hisdu2.sph.uq.edu.au/arivac/
FIXME:add names and proper tags

Arivac reference tags
arivac:name:L-01-606-010-06
arivac:type_id:1.00
arivac:typetxt:Barangay health station

Some notes:
1. I didn't reconciled it with the existing POIs in OSM, I hope local
mappers would do that.
2. Many tags are not "official" in a sense with the default OSM Map
Features, for example, shop:corn_rice_mill.
3. A lot of POIs I don't normally map myself but I feel this is
important for rural areas like sari-sari stores which were tagged as
shop=convenience.
4. Some POIs are lumped into a sing category which needs further
verification, for example, Car/motorcycle/bicycle shop/metal/car
distributors which were tagged as   shop:car_parts.
5.  All POIs don't have a name

Enjoy!
