Dear everyone,

Unsatisfied by the response below, I did a follow-up call with the
NAMRIA concerned staff and explained the purpose of our project.

They said that as long as we scanned them and didn't purchased the
scanned/digital version from NAMRIA and we did our own rectification,
this is completely OK.  One thing to note though is that rectification
should be in Luzon 1911 datum
http://spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/4253/ and at least 16 GCPs are
needed.  After the rectification, we can then reproject it to GCS
WGS-84

Moreover, they said that they are well aware of OSM in the Philippines
of which they are grateful because we are providing free access to
vector datasets of the country (specifically streets).

Honestly, the above statement surprised me.

Hi Maning, 

To answer the question if we bought the maps from NAMRIA, yes the maps was 
bought from them and then scanned them. 

Good news that we could use their topo maps as long as we put them in our data 
reference.

Here's NAMRIA's response to my inquiry (I forgot to send to the list
ASAP because it was marked as spam):

Dear Sir,

Did you buy the maps from the NAMRIA Map Sales Office?

You can use the maps, but please acknowledge NAMRIA as the source and
mention the process you did on the maps (i.e scan,
georeference/georegister and trace)

For more info. please call us at 8105466.

Truly yours,

Alvin Laurio

My original message:
Hi, I would like to ask legal clarification on the use of the NAMRIA
1:50k topographic maps. If I manually scan the maps and distribute
them for free to colleagues on the internet and allow then to trace
features in the image, am I infringing NAMRIA's copyright over the
maps? Please provide clarification. The paper maps do not clearly
indicate restrictions of use of the map. Thank you very much.

Re: [talk-ph] Typhoon Megi/Juan Humanitarian OSM Team activation request

2010-10-22 Thread maning sambale
Hi,

Some update on this:
1. jgc, chippy and Schuyler is working on improving the rectification
of the 1:50k topomaps:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Philippines_Tropical_Storm_2010#Other_data_sources

Basically we have two wms available.
The telascience service is an automatic rectification while the nypl
service requires manual identification of ground control point (GCPs).
 IYou can improve the rectification by adding more GCPs using the nypl
service.  We can then combine both service.

2. I initiated contact with the Province of Isabela if there is a need
for mapping assistance.  Our local contact responded that they don't
need assitance at the moment.  Response below:
"extends his thanks, though no need to go, since they are having
trouble coordinating the number of groups there who are already
involved in rescue and aid."

However, I encourage everyone to continue with the mapping effort.
Recovery efforts for the heavily damaged towns will take much longer.

Salamat Maning for rectifying the topo maps.  Just to clarify a bit, the topo 
maps that I uploaded is collaborative effort with my previous colleagues in an 
organization called Anthrowatch based in Quezon City. We had a scanner that 
everytime we would have a new topo map, we would scan and archive it. I do not 
even remember now which specific maps that I scanned personally. Anyway, I plan 
to upload more maps when time allows.

Today's update on the Typhoon Megi/Juan mapping.

1. 1:250k topomaps are now available as WMS which you can use as
basemap in JOSM and Merkator.
2. We made a quick rectification of Bunny's donated 1:50K and also
available as WMS.

More info in the wiki:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Philippines_Tropical_Storm_2010#Other_data_sources

A word of caution on using the WMS, these maps are really old and only
useful as additional reference for naming features.  Many of the shape
of features (i. e. rivers) have changed through the years.  However,
this still useful to verify Landsat traced features.

Re: [talk-ph] Typhoon Megi/Juan Humanitarian OSM Team activation request

2010-10-19 Thread Eugene Alvin Villar
Are these maps kosher for tracing?

The Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines (Republic Act No.
8293) has this to say:

"Section 176.1. No copyright shall subsist in any work of the
Government of the Philippines. However, prior approval of the
government agency or office wherein the work is created shall be
necessary for exploitation of such work for profit. [...]"

The Wikipedia community has taken this to mean that government works
are still copyrighted because of the non-commercial clause.

But, additionally, copyright in the Philippines generally persist for
the author's life + 50 years or 50 years after publication/making
depending on the work. So maps published in the 1950s *might* be OK.

Hi,

A couple of updates to our efforts.  All in the wiki:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Philippines_Tropical_Storm_2010

1. Typhoon Megi/Juan is about to leave the Philippines Area of
Responsiblity, fortunately, very few casualties.  But the extent of
damage needs to be monitored.
2. River mapping is continuing.
3.  Bunny donated scanned topographic maps (1:50k).  You can use the
maps for adding names in the landsat derived rivers.  The maps are not
georeferenced you can do this via mapwarper, once rectified you can
now use it in josm and merkator.  Note that the topomaps are
copyrighted by NAMRIA, bunny scanned them personally and is allowing
the use for OSM.
4. I identified possible SPOT5 2.5 color imagery.  We need to
prioritize which images we should request for donation.  Please edit
the wiki and provide a description why we should request the specific
image tile.

As of this time, we have very little data we can offer to relief and
rescue workers, but given the resources in the wiki.  I believe we can
provide good data soon.
Thanks to everyone.

Thanks a lot.

Maning has uploaded the maps (the first batch) to 
http://maps.nypl.org/relief/ <http://maps.nypl.org/relief/maps/308>
put them in the wiki 
(http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Philippines_Tropical_Storm_2010#Other_data_sources 
)
and Chippy made a composite for them 
(http://maps.nypl.org/relief/layers/12).


Most still need georeferencing, and Maning will be able to add new maps 
to the composite layer.

CI produced a dataset ng rivers based on the Namria 125.000k. Pero They also

We need your help in assessing the extent of damage in which we can

Re: [talk-ph] Typhoon Megi/Juan Humanitarian OSM Team activation request

Are these maps rectified (hopefully in Geog Lat/Lon WGS 84 datum)?
Scale (hopefully not more than 1:50K)? We can use this to roughly
trace rivers.

Manning, 

May mga scanned NAMRIA topo maps ako ng northern luzon. The maps are not up to 
date but in any case there is a need I can upload it somewhere for downloads.

[talk-ph] Typhoon Megi/Juan Humanitarian OSM Team activation request

2010-10-18 Thread maning sambale
Dear everyone,

I created an activation request for mapping affected areas Typhoon
Megi/Juan in the Philippines.  At the moment, there are no high-res
available in the area.  What we can for now is to map large rivers
visible in Landsat which is likely to be flooded.

As the event progresses, we will evaluate specific areas needing
high-res imagery.

Thanks in advance for supporting the initiative.
