Re: [talk-ph] maps for mountaineers/ outdoor lovers
Hi guys, We have decided that we will be having a separate outdoor recreation Garmin map for the hikers, mountaineers, mountain bikers, climbers, scuba divers, etc. This map will have contour lines for selected mountains as suggested. But unlike the main Garmin map, this will be updated only once a month since outdoor-related map features aren't edited/updated on the map as often as "regular" features like roads and POIs. But for those who want the latest, we will try to provide DIY tools so people can make their own custom Garmin maps. :-) On Mon, Feb 21, 2011 at 11:49 AM, tutubi wrote: > +1 here > just returned from trips to Ilocos Sur then Palawan... > the monkey trail to the underground river is surprisingly present is > OSM...nice...but i wasn't able to do it due to the usual lack of time. next > time, i'll stay overnight in Sabang then trek rather than ride the > boat...there's also Ugong rock and a new zipline (PH already becoming > zipline crazy these days) > > --- > I explore, therefore I blog. > > http://www.backpackingphilippines.com > > On Wed, Feb 16, 2011 at 10:04 PM, rem zamora wrote: >> >> hey! just thinking aloud here. i know we have our osm map. and we also >> have the 10m elevation contour map of the country. what if... we can >> consolidate the two. in maning's page >> (http://esambale.wikispaces.com/osmphil_garmin) there is already an osm map >> with contour. i havent checked it yet but the note says it is only metro >> manila map and it might get too cluttered. >> maybe, we can, put osm map for the whole country, and then put contour >> maps for special places/mountains like apo, kanlaon, pulag, mayon, et.al. im >> not sure how this can be implemented but maybe, just maybe there is a way to >> put contour maps (just for certain areas where it can be useful) with street >> maps from osm. >> this will eliminate me having to put two maps in my gpsr and >> enabling/disabling the mamp whic is needed/not needed. >> just a suggestion guys :) >> >> -- >> Rem Zamora >> 0916-55-11-407 ___ talk-ph mailing list talk-ph@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph
Re: [talk-ph] how do I tag watchtowers?
Watchtowers can indeed be tagged as a ruin especially if its unused. We can always update to better tags when they exist in the future. As for lighthouses, see if you can pick something up here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Lighthouse :-) On Mon, Feb 21, 2011 at 5:25 PM, tutubi wrote: > I found them in Ilocos Sur and La Union... > bateria in san esteban and Luna, La Union > didn't find them in Santa and Narvacan as advertised by Ilocos Sur gov't. :( > temporarily tagged them as ruins using the drag-and-drop POIs of P2.

[talk-ph] JAXA ALOS imagery in Sierra Madre(was Re: Northern Luzon Imagery)
jgc and osm-ph mappers, I had a talk with JAXA Sentinel Asia guys and they said this is OK for public use and OSM tracing. Long term wish for me is to get direct access for future Sentinel Asia imagery. Keep your fingers crossed.

Re: [talk-ph] Quirino Bridge, Banaoang, Santa, Ilocos Sur
I took a look at it and I noticed two things: 1. That old way which is supposed to be a bridge is not tagged as bridge. Maybe the routine algo regards a highway without a bridge as a faster route? 2. The new bridge has a motorroad:no tag while the old highway has only got the highway:trunk tag... maybe this has an effect on routing too? ed On Mon, Feb 21, 2011 at 4:33 PM, tutubi wrote: > Hi ! > > I again went to Vigan to stay for the night from Sta.

[talk-ph] how do I tag watchtowers?
I found them in Ilocos Sur and La Union... bateria in san esteban and Luna, La Union didn't find them in Santa and Narvacan as advertised by Ilocos Sur gov't. :( temporarily tagged them as ruins using the drag-and-drop POIs of P2.

[talk-ph] Quirino Bridge, Banaoang, Santa, Ilocos Sur
Hi ! I again went to Vigan to stay for the night from Sta. Cruz last week, on my way I tried to route and noticed my Nuvi's directing me to use the old bridge, instead of the new one. http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=17.55973&lon=120.46364&zoom=16 on my way back it's still the same. Any idea why? guess it's because the old bridge is linked to the highway, the new one is a completely new way thus it's treated as a turn. also, from Vigan, I saw DPWH billboards decalring the portion of the road under repair as Manila North Road...the road's tagged as Narvacan - Vigan...street signs say it's National Highway and yet the DPWH billboard says Manila North Road. Hoping for a Bing update for Vigan and Ilocos Sur so we can have more complete road network there. Noticed also the missing Ilocos Sur- Abra Road near Narvacan on the map. -- --- I explore, therefore I blog. http://www.backpackingphilippines.com ___ talk-ph mailing list talk-ph@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph
