Re: [talk-ph] Bacolod.
Here is a suggested compromise. Why don't we replace all the road names of unverified or suspected traces over there with FIXME's. (that way, they becomes temporary 'reference data' only) Then we send gpstogo(plus paper map) and my old garmin 76 gps to Bacolod, and make a game out of this situation. Bacolod volunteers will hunt down & RIDE/BIKE OVER all 'FIXME roads' & COLLECT additional POI's & streetnames along the way. Then we teach them how to upload traces (or just email back raw data for processing by more experienced osm users). We'll just make customized Bacolod gps map (for download), small enough to load even on older map-capable garmins like gpsmap76. I'll lend my extra bike mount (for use by bacolod mappers)... but they must return it back :-) If we can only replicate (similar) osm teams/groups in Bacolod and other key cities which meet and arrange EB's only regular basis to exchange ideas (like what we do in Metro Manila), then we will be able to cover the entire philippines much faster (the osm way).

Re: [talk-ph] Bacolod is still a big problem
Hi, Just an update on the responses of Bacolod mappers. 1. Most mappers replied that they are using GPS and local knowledge. (see the responses below) 2. Bacolod has good traces uploaded not much, but it seems to show very good coverage at least in the city center. See this image of JOSM: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3324/4623396303_e2f6be5fe6_o.jpg 3. There is a good number of traces from other sites which one contributor said he/she used. http://www.wikiloc.com/wikiloc/map.do#lt=10.71630665&ln=122.96557086&z=6 4. They seem to have a group doing the edits, hence, the explosion of edits in the past months. 5. Apart from one user, the mappers did not view any hostility with my message. Given the above observations, I do think its fair we give them the "give the benefit of the doubt". Of course anyone can say otherwise. If you have more inquiries regarding their edits, I suggest you send them a message or as Andre suggested: "a phone call with tone of voice would resolve things as e-mails seem threatening to him/her". transcript below === It might be someone else's work I'm particular with copy right issues and I'm using my own data from my GPS and from time to time me and my friends share tracks from our ride. I also might have contributed in some area where its a common knowledge that such POI or street exist. I was using a GPS. I'm no longer contributing since my GPS was stolen together with my bike. I understand we need to keep OSM free from copyright infringements so please, don't worry. My edits mostly consist of POI's and re-tags. These POI's, tags, and a couple of road sections are all built from my memory. I know this is not convincing enough but I assure you these are not taken from anywhere else. However, I must admit I have copied something from googlemaps: http://osm.org/go/4n8spzaPY-- I'll be deleting and replacing this section with a POI as soon as I finish sending you this message. (which he already removed) Yes there seems to be a growing number of people here at Bacolod who are interested in mapping. The only problem is that at the moment its not so well organize and OSM is not that popular. But I think in time we'll be able to form a proper group especially if they realize the benefits of it. Yes, I'll spread the word to people I know. Thank You. hay nako syempre GPS bakit ano ba ang ginagamit mo? baka ikaw ang gumagawa nga anomalia pina pasa mo lang sa akin. wala ako masyadong alam kaya nga naghihintay lang ako ng mga daan na gina gawa tapos eniedit ko lang lang. bakit ang dami mong alam sa mga tungkol sa mga ganyan. And about that contributor who admitted that he took his data from google, aparently it was an account made for bacolod city where in different users can log in and use it but apparently it did not work out since some think it was a joke. But not all of those who use it thinks that way. Hope this clarify your doubts about us in Bacolod. Rest assured my edits are genuine (not from copy right material) and some are from my memory. I'm using my GPS device my friend and some are contributions from the website itself. Im using my GPS and some donated and downloaded GPS traces. I have no idea about this edits. perhaps you've mistaken me of somebody. anyway it might be that I have contributed to such edit but can't exactly remember which part but just to let you know I always use a GPS device regarding my edits and you might also want to check wikiloc for there are some gps track and are free for download. hope this has helped your concern. http://www.wikiloc.com/wikiloc/view.do?id=882587 this might help since i also take some of my edits on this site i hope this helps.

Re: [talk-ph] Bacolod is still a big problem
Many people already argued that copying from aerial imagery is not governed by copyright law. Case law proved it: http://www.systemed.net/blog/?p=100 However, Google terms of use explicitly do not allow this: http://epsg4253.wordpress.com/2009/03/17/google-mapmaker-and-openstreetmap/ That said, I echo Eugene's statement. Do not test this slippery and complicated legal argument in OSM. We maybe impatient with the progress of OSM in many areas in the country. But in due time, we can get it done the OSM way. -- 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] Bacolod is still a big problem
Hi, everyone. Thank you for your comments. I do appreciate them all, and I respect you all for giving them freely. I will, of course, follow OSM guidelines to the letter, and will in no way jeopardize all of the hard work that has been done before my very recent arrival. I am, like many, simply frustrated at how copyright is used at a weapon and how it does, in fact, stifle creativity and advancements in many areas. You are all aware of this, of course. Best to you all, Craig.

Re: [talk-ph] Bacolod is still a big problem
Hi Craig, I saw this question several times here and there and can not agree completely. I think that Facts/Locations can not be copyrighted indeed, but maps can. It takes quite a lot of work to represent the locations of items accurately on maps. It's much easier to copy from an existing map. (Why would some OSM mappers be tempted if this was not the case?) So it seems reasonable to me to protect this work by a copyright. When you copy from a map, even small portions, you don't copy facts, but a more or less faithful representation someone else made. If you copy Google maps, you even copying "someone's imagination" ! Here Google has several non existing roads on the map : http://sautter.com/map/?zoom=17&lat=10.3468&lon=123.91864&layers=B0TF Even comparing just the location should not be done, since the map seems offset... The above is also true for the satellite images (although maybe less obviously). Several years ago, I saw a duplicate parallel road on the border of stitched images (Each of them ending in a blurry house on opposite sides at some distance). I was unable to find it now, but I'm sure you'll be able to find some artifacts if you look for them.

Re: [talk-ph] Bacolod is still a big problem
Hi, this topic is discussed every now and then. Facts are free, but you can't use the help of copyright protected material. If you only copy one house/street/whatever maybe that doesn't matter. But what if all of us are doing this? You end up with a 100% copy of the map and than even you will agree, that this is a no go. So where to drew the line? It's impossible and that's why the community agrees not to use copyright protected maps even for a poi to copy. What you can to with this maps is comparing for areas which need attention, go there and do your mappings. Or use openstreetbugs to report them, so others can pick up. OSM license allows anyone to use our data for any purpose and without the need to give anything back, even sell it and make money out of your/our work. They only have to mention the license. That's the open part in OSM. But you can't expect to do everyone like this and we respect this. Take a look at the OSM history, e.g. http://www.geofabrik.de/en/gallery/history/index.html It's amazing what has been done only with free sources or donated date in this short periode of time. We should be proud of it and keep the OSM free from data of copyright protected sources. If there are white spaces, give it some time and somebody will do traces and close them. We need more mappers. Also note, that google and others can't give away what they don't have. The images on goolge maps/earth are bought from other companys which own the copyright - you can see the company's name on the map. Maybe this will change if they are using the images from their own satellite. AFAIK they wanted to wait with updating gmaps when they have images from the whole world. IMHO they should have them already - we'll see. There is even an difference in the yahoo images free to copy and the ones on the yahoo webpage which are not free to copy. See http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Yahoo!_Aerial_Imagery On the other hand pls. be aware that not everybody want's to upload this gps tracks due to privacy concerns or some body could find out about one's nice and quiet camping place. Questions about anonymizing gps data arise on the user mailing list form time to time. But in this case ppl. should respond different to questions about the source.

Re: [talk-ph] Bacolod is still a big problem
Hi Craig, Good points overall. I agree that some of these copyright scaremongering isn't valid and that possibly in some jurisdictions (probably the US, but not the UK), copying facts from a map image is OK. But for everyone's information, OSM chooses to be on the safe and cautious side. Unless something is black-and-white (we can definitely trace/copy or definitely not) the project has decided to adopt a strict no-copying policy. It's possible that someone can test the legal waters by bringing to court (in some limited jurisdiction) some of the issues, but OSM is not the place to force the issue. As for Google itself, Ed Parsons, their Geospatial Technologist, has hinted[1] that tracing stuff from Google's own or licensed data and placing it into OSM is a no-no. That's why we are alarmed if we see roads that match Google's imagery (especially if they match the extent of under-construction roads).

Re: [talk-ph] Bacolod is still a big problem
Maybe there is something fundamental that I don't get, but, let me ask a question, please. How is it possible that a location of a road or building or anything can be copyrighted? I understand not copying entire maps, etc., from a source and then claiming it as your own is contrary to copyright, but "facts", and a road location is a fact, not something created from someone's imagination. Google itself allows businesses to use tools to correct the location of that business if it is in error on Google's maps. Nobody is copying and distributing Google satellite images, nor are they distributing other Google properties. I think this worry about copyright violations is a knee-jerk reaction and would not stand up in a court of law. Big companies with big law firms backing them up is very intimidating, but that doesn't change the fact that you should be able to refer to a Google map or image to confirm a road location or other geographical entity. I see this as fair use. Also, thousands of people around the world have contributed to mapping for Google through efforts around the Haiti and Chile earthquakes. I'd say copyright is a bit dicey in that situation because Google only facilitated the mapping. Also, thousands upon thousands of buildings have been placed in Google Earth, thanks only to users like us. Myself, I have contributed mapping and 3D buildings. Is OSM open to the world? If it is, then Google can use OSM data. If Google sued OSM for improving maps using "Google's data" only to integrate that into their own products, that would be major hypocrisy. I'm sick of corporations creating this atmosphere of "we're going to sue your asses off" at the drop of a hat. It's a sad thing, and well-minded people like those contributing to a better world via OSM and other similar projects should not have the spectre of litigation hanging over their heads. Take care, all. Craig. Anyway, I'm not here to argue a point or start a flame war.

Sure he can add POIs from memory, but road alignment and position is something that requires a map source with permission or GPS traces correct?

It's not the raw track but a collection of simplified tracks cleaned-up in a Garmin software called Training Center. If you look at the raw GPX file (it's XML after all), you'll see that there are many tracks in the GPX file. It just looks messy on the OSM page since all these tracks were connected end-to-end.

Re: [talk-ph] Bacolod
Any WMS can be used as a background in JOSM, but it doesn't give an assurance that it's OK for OSM. Anyone can use josm in other mapping projects outside osm. I sometimes use it for other mapping needs because of the really cool editing functions.

I messaged him and he said that he traced from a WMS in JOSM. It's probably a WMS plugin that let's you view Google Maps imagery.
