The second reimport is now complete. OSM should be current with respect to
the April 2017 version of the shapefile.

[Talk-us] Features for OpenStreetCam JOSM plugin?

2017-05-09 Thread m 
Hi all, 

We’ve been steadily improving the JOSM plugin for OpenStreetCam. Recently we 
added the option to go to a nearby photo regardless of the trip that it’s part 
of. At lower zooms you can now see a line to see which ways have coverage. Also 
we added caching features that can be controlled using the plugin settings.

What features would you liked to see developed next?
What do you like / dislike about the plugin so far?

Thanks,
Martijn

PS2 We’re happy to welcome code contributions of course!___

[Talk-us] iD news: v2.2.0 released

2017-05-09 Thread Bryan Housel 
iD v2.2.0 was released May 9 2017 and is now available for editing on 
openstreetmap.org 

This is possibly our biggest release ever because it includes over 100 features 
and represents about 3 months of work by 13 contributors, and countless other 
translators and testers.  Thank you to everyone who made this possible!  ❤️
📣 Release Highlights

🛰 Two new global satellite imagery layers: DigitalGlobe Premium and 
DigitalGlobe Standard!
These new layers cover many parts of the world that previously had no usable 
imagery.
Check out the new imagery by opening the Background pane (shortcut B)

👉 A new right-click editing menu replaces the old radial menu.
The new editing menu gives iD room to grow and won't get in the way of your 
editing.
Remember: Right-click on map features to use the new menu.

👩‍🎓 The introductory walkthrough has been completely revised, covering more 
OpenStreetMap concepts and common editing tasks using the new right-click menu. 
Users can explore and practice editing in the example town - now much better 
mapped than before and completely localizable. Even long time iD users should 
give it a try!
Replay the walkthrough from the Help pane (shortcut H).

🚦 Big refresh of icons! You'll see a lot more icons for commonly mapped 
features.
Map traffic signals, stop signs, benches, crossings, street lamps, fountains, 
towers, and many more.

✍️ You can now see and edit changeset tags before uploading to OpenStreetMap.


The complete changelog is pretty epic, and can be found here:
   Changelog:  https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#220 


The next time you launch iD, you might even see a notification down in the 
corner of the screen about the new version!
