[Talk-us] Whole-US Garmin Map update - 2014-09-23
These are based off of Lambertus's work here: http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl If you have questions or comments about these maps, please feel free to ask. However, please do not send me private mail. The odds are, someone else will have the same questions, and by asking on the talk-us@ list, others can benefit. Downloads: http://daveh.dev.openstreetmap.org/garmin/Lambertus/2014-09-23 Map to visualize what each file contains: http://daveh.dev.openstreetmap.org/garmin/Lambertus/2014-09-23/kml/kml.html FAQ Why did you do this? I wrote scripts to joined them myself to lessen the impact of doing a large join on Lambertus's server. I've also cut them in large longitude swaths that should fit conveniently on removable media. http://daveh.dev.openstreetmap.org/garmin/Lambertus/2014-09-23 Can or should I seed the torrents? Yes!! If you use the .torrent files, please seed. That web server is in the UK, and it helps to have some peers on this side of the Atlantic. Why is my map missing small rectangular areas? There have been some missing tiles from Lambertus's map (the red rectangles), I don't see any at the moment, so you may want to update if you had issues with the last set. Why can I not copy the large files to my new SD card? If you buy a new card (especially SDHC), some are FAT16 from the factory. I had to reformat it to let me create a 2GB file. Does your map cover Mexico/Canada? Yes!! I have, for the purposes of this map, annexed Ontario in to the USA. Some areas of North America that are close to the US also just happen to get pulled in to these maps. This might not happen forever, and if you would like your non-US area to get included, let me know. -- Dave ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
Re: [Talk-us] multiple-value problem in ref tags
I would have to agree with Paul on this subject Jack. It's been common practice to do it this way since I've been a part of the OSM editing community in 2010. Since the 'ref' tags aren't normal sentences, the ';' isn't considered to be punctuation like Paul mentioned in his e-mail. I honestly don't know why your copy of OSMAnd and the TTS engine it uses say ';' when giving you the refs off of highway. [1] But your comment about 'tagging for the renderer' when breaking the MapQuest Open rendering could be turned back and say that we shouldn't be 'tagging for the router' at the same time. MapQuest developed their rendering scheme on how we were using the ref tags already. Thus, this isn't technically 'tagging for the renderer' because we were already not using a space after the ';' in the ref tags. -James [1] - https://groups.google.com/d/topic/osmand/k2Rf59wUiSE/discussion Date: Mon, 15 Sep 2014 20:31:43 -0700 From: penor...@mac.com To: talk-us@openstreetmap.org Subject: Re: [Talk-us] multiple-value problem in ref tags On 9/15/2014 7:03 PM, Jack Burke wrote: As the wiki doesn't specifically say *don't* put a space after the semicolon, I didn't see a problem with doing it. [1] The standard is to use ; without a space as a delimiter. This is what both iD and JOSM use. https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues/941 has a bit more info from 2013. The semicolon should never make it to the TTS engine, the processing before it gets that far should transform it into something that can be spoken. Remember, the ; isn't being used as punctuation, it's being used as a delimiter. The quote you pasted said with a semicolon and without a space character, which agrees with this. ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
Re: [Talk-us] Directional relation roles where signs disagree
With these split relations, ways should have forward/backwards, relations should have cardinal directions in a super relation. Gets to be a real pain in the ass when ways are using cardinal direction roles. On Thu, Sep 25, 2014 at 1:23 AM, Minh Nguyen m...@nguyen.cincinnati.oh.us wrote: At least ten miles of I-275 near Cincinnati are consistently signed as north/southbound on guide signs [1] and reassurance markers [2] but consistently signed as east/westbound on tenth-mile markers [3] and ramp name signs, as well as in ODOT's straight line diagram [4]. What roles should these ways have in the I-275 route relation? They're currently north and south with a note describing the contradiction. [5] Would it be better to change the roles to north;east and south;west? Should we revert to forward in weird cases like these? (It's bad enough that this is Circle Freeway, in which each direction already refers to disconnected segments in 2-3 different states.)

[Talk-us] User going around adding '-' to ref tags in Michigan
Just thought I'd give you guys a heads up, but there is a user going around and adding '-' to all the ref tags he modifies in Michigan. A good example would be a good chunk of I-75 [1], I-96, M-3, M-10 in Metro Detroit. But he's done it elsewhere in Michigan. I sent him a PM earlier mentioning this as a 'FYI' that we don't add the '-' to the ref tags. Hopefully he'll respond. Otherwise, this might be a massive cleanup. Anybody else want to try and get a hold of this user as well? I have also noticed that in some places where he has 'tweaked' the ref tags, others have done some 'reverting' work already putting them back to the normal standard.
