[talk-ph] OSM Editing Tip in < 5 Minutes screencast series

2010-04-27 Thread maning sambale
Hi,

I'm making some videos on editing data in OSM.  This is intended for
newbies.  My plan is to make short screencast focusing on one
feature/editing tip.

So far I made two videos using Potlatch as an editor:
- Splitting ways in Potlatch
- Edit data using your uploaded GPS tracks

See videos here: http://vimeo.com/user1958568/videos

Suggestions are welcome.
If you have a tip request, let me know and I'll try to make one for
you.  I hope this helps pinoy newbies break into the initial barriers.
:)

Other videos you may find useful are here:
http://showmedo.com/videos/series?name=mS2P1ZqS6


PS.  The first 2 vids are a bit fast (I'm still playing around with
xvidcap's settings).  Just replay the vid in case you missed something
when you blinked your eye. :)

OSM do not have standard tag for many things.  The best way to get a
feel of what the community is tagging is by looking at what other
people are using (which is what we all do).

Some tools that maybe helpful:
osmdoc ( tagging stats for the whole world) -
http://osmdoc.com/en/tag/tourism/#values
tagwatch ( tagging stats for some countries) -
http://tagwatch.stoecker.eu/Philippines/En/keystats_tourism.html
and a shiny new feature in Potlatch called "Find tag" (bottom of your
Potlach window)

Hi,

I had a hard time too finding how to tag resorts.
I finally use leisure=beach_resort now.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dbeach_resort

To find how to tag things, I usually just search the wiki. 
Example:  
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&search=resort&fulltext=Search

Regards,

Totor

Do you know you can use other background maps in Potlatch?

We have additional high-res images for some areas without Yahoo!
imagery.  Currently we have imagery for Pampanga, Bulacan and
Pangasinan.  Details here:

tutubi,

If you use potlatch, no easy way.  Sorry.

For merkaartor and JOSM, you can rectify the image using an online map
rectifier Map Warper  beta:
http://warper.geothings.net/

After the rectification, you can now use the image as a WMS.  One
warning when capturing aerial images:  "anything below about 70° to
the vertical isn't that useful. 45° pictures make nice panoramas but
aren't good for warping. "
