Re: [talk-ph] tagging rotund/roundabout
I was searching for this some time ago because I once heard my Nuvi say roundabout somewhere but not around Quezon Circle or Maysilo where I pass by quite regularly http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:junction%3Droundabout will try to edit Quezon Circle and check then edit Maysilo and Monumento, MOA et al Welcome rotonda is not a rotonda anymore and also no longer Welcome but Mabuhay Rotonda, much more the so-called EDSA rotonda :P -- --- I explore, therefore I blog. http://www.backpackingphilippines.com On Fri, Feb 4, 2011 at 10:07 AM, maning sambale wrote: > A question was posted in the OSMPH facebook page: > > Hi folks.

Not yet [ http://osm.org/go/4zhEzFfvC-- ]. (methinks that someone should map that area.) Tony Montana: Me, I want what's coming to me. Manny Ribera: Oh, well what's coming to you?

Re: [talk-ph] Automatic road tracing from satellite imagery?
Not yet useful. I tested both the silverlight and openlayers demo. I can't create a nice road trace both for straight grids and curvy baguio type roads. Since the algorithm depends on imagery color, I think tracing quality will depend on the image contrast, which varies for different areas. It would be nice if the app can manipulate the base imagery like setting image contrast to highlight the roads before tracing. Once the basic code/api is released by Bing, I'm sure osm-geeks can develop the algorithm much better. ;) On Fri, Feb 4, 2011 at 8:40 AM, Eugene Alvin Villar wrote: > Here's something somebody whipped up to play around with things: > http://maps.qualitystreetmap.org/bingtracing/ > > > On Fri, Feb 4, 2011 at 8:37 AM, George Tujan wrote: >> now that's pretty cool! >> >> On Fri, Feb 4, 2011 at 2:23 AM, Eugene Alvin Villar >> wrote: >>> >>> See this blog post: >>> >>> http://www.bing.com/community/site_blogs/b/maps/archive/2011/02/03/automatically-detect-roads-with-bing-aerial-imagery.aspx >>> >>> And this YouTube video: >>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LR0WV2dGIRc >>> >>> ___ >>> talk-ph mailing list >>> talk-ph@openstreetmap.org >>> http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph >> >> > > > > -- > http://vaes9.codedgraphic.com > > ___ > talk-ph mailing list > talk-ph@openstreetmap.org > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph > -- cheers, maning -- "Freedom is still the most radical idea of all" -N.Branden wiki: http://esambale.wikispaces.com/ blog: http://epsg4253.wordpress.com/ -- ___ talk-ph mailing list talk-ph@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph
[talk-ph] tagging rotund/roundabout
A question was posted in the OSMPH facebook page: Hi folks. I noticed that OSM PH doesn't seem to have the rotundas correctly mapped. I believe they have to be entered as "roundabouts" instead curved paths or turns. Baguio rotundas seem to be correctly mapped. How do you do that? The same author sent me a similar inquiry via FB message: I noticed that OSM PH doesn't seem to have the rotundas correctly mapped for most of metro manila. I believe they have to be entered as "roundabouts" instead curved paths or turns. Baguio rotundas seem to be correctly mapped. But how do you do that? sa baguio kasi i noticed that as you entered a rotunda (like the one near Wright Park), my GPS correctly calls it a "roundabout" and its voice prompt also correctly instructs to take the "nth" exit from the roundabout. compare that to say, the Welcome Rotunda coming from Manila as you enter rotunda towards UP GPS voice prompt would say "turn left and the right". Instead it should have said "enter roundabout and exit at Quezon Avenue". My answer below: I think "Welcome Rotonda" doesn't have a roundabout tag, hence, your Nuvi don't recognize them when giving turn directions. The way I see it 'Welcome Rotonda" technically is not a roundabout anymore. = Any other ideas regarding tagging rotunda/roundabout? -- cheers, maning -- "Freedom is still the most radical idea of all" -N.Branden wiki: http://esambale.wikispaces.com/ blog: http://epsg4253.wordpress.com/ -- ___ talk-ph mailing list talk-ph@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph

Re: [talk-ph] Automatic road tracing from satellite imagery?
On initial quick testing, the 'shadows of high buildings' on the street creates crooked lines. I think it needs more tweaking... But if they manage to get it right later on, many will benefit. That will help us a lot, especially for tracing very long provincial roads that run into several kilometers. And it will also lessen the risk of developing carpal-tunnel syndrome.
