[OSM-dev] WHODIDIT

I tweaked Zverik's WHODIDIT script to speed-up the queries. These performance improvements are mainly due to the usage of a spatial index in the database. Did you benchmark it against old version? Is the performance worth doubling the index size and using spatial extensions? To my shame, I d

[OSM-dev] Imagery Offset Database beta-testing

Hi! I have been working on the imagery offset database JOSM plugin, and now it seems to be finished. The same could be said for the server. The documentation is here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Imagery_Offset_Database (my English seems to have degraded, so please fix any grammar mistake

[OSM-dev] GPX Planet Dump to PostgreSQL

Hi! In case someone has resources for rendering GPX tiles, I've finished a tool that loads all tracks from the upcoming GPX planet dump into PostgreSQL tables (with PostGIS extension): https://github.com/Zverik/gpx2pgsql I've succesfully tested it on the data Firefishy provided a couple days

Hi! GPX Planet extracts are nearly ready: http://zverik.osm.rambler.ru/gps/files/extracts/index.html Extracts for Germany regions are still being processed, I hope to upload them by tomorrow morning (Thursday in the worst case). All other files are complete. You can use those extracts of manag

[OSM-dev] BigMap 2

Hi! For a long time there was only one reasonable tool to download and stitch map tiles into an image: Frederik's BigMap script. Sadly it suffered from some little design problems, which meant I had to fix generated perl scripts by hand every time. Today I have released BigMap 2: http://bigmap

Re: [OSM-dev] Tiles provider

Hi. Of course tile providers do not want you to bulk download tiles. Tiles are not static images, but generated on every request, which places a load on CPU and disk drives. Simply displaying a map in web browsers is bearable, because number of tiles requested is low. What you want is around 7-10

Hi! I've just opened this ticket, in which I propose to include /> tags to objects returned by OSM API which were requested individually (not with map call): https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/768 The tag would allow editors to warn users when they delete or modify an

[OSM-dev] Area data type -- again!

Hi all! There has been no discussion of areas since November 2012, and the last EWG meeting made me think of them for some reason. I believe a proper area type can be done, and it would nicely represent every kind of areas — from simple buildings to the coastline. Please see http://wiki.openstreet

[OSM-dev] Munitely updated regional osm2pgsql database

Hi! I think it's unfair that the entry level to producing OSM tiles is prohibitively high: you cannot just install postgis/mapnik/mod_tile on a $10 vps and have minutely updated country tiles. There certainly won't be enough memory to run osm2pgsql, and since diffs are only available for the whole

Hi! Recently someone changed MapBox Imagery URL in JOSM, which resulted in different keys for the same imagery in imagery offset database. This prompted me to create a distinct id for mapbox imagery. The regular expression for matching URL is "tiles\.mapbox\.com/v[3-9]/openstreetmap\.map". All

Hi everyone, Suppose I'm working on a mobile editor for iOS and Android. You can't edit anything without signing in, so first a user has to enter their login and password. If they are not registered in OSM, too bad: the registration workflow is overly complex for mobile. One has to enter logi

My answer is, absolutely. If a random person walking with their phone adds opening hours or marks a shop closed, I don't care if she/he is a part of community or not. Having them logged in with an OSM account makes them contactable, and that's all we need. I think it's time to stop taking OSM f

Re: [OSM-dev] Planet file with preprocessed lines/polygons

The answer hugely depends on your task. There is no such preprocessed geojson planet dump, because it would be huge and a pain to use. Most people use libosmium or pyosmium to scan through the features in an OSM file. You will get geometries and even reconstructed multipolygons. See http://osmc
