Re: [Talk-GB] Quarterly Project: Addresses and Postcodes

Maybe it is interesting to repeat how Nominatim resolves addresses, just in case someone wants to do a search after adding an address. - Nominatim starts from an address point (or building way with address). It takes the house number from it and the street name. - It tries to match the street

Re: [OSM-talk-be] building = staketsel

tip: iets ten westen en oosten van jouw staketsel, zijn er 2 meertjes in een bos. Momenteel worden daar ook boompjes op getekend, omdat er geen multi-polygoon gedefinieerd is voor het bos. Heb je zin om dat te corrigeren ? Weet je hoe je een multi-polygoon moet maken ? Vraag het anders maar, laat

Re: [OSM-talk-be] building = staketsel

A man_made=pier should be rendered on the default style, see e.g. http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/22909776#map=18/51.08352/4.36580 Adding building is wrong. I don't know whether a pier mapped as an area will show up though. Perhaps one could add area=yes. Can you include a link to the Pier in

Re: [OSM-talk-be] GRB Flanders

Hallo Pieter, welkom op de mailing list. Momenteel werkt Glenn Plas aan een tool (website), om het tekenen van huizen met adres informatie te vereenvoudigen. De tool is grotendeels klaar, maar omdat het hier gaat om het importeren van data uit een andere databank, moet er een goedkeuring van de

I was thinking about possible changes to the tool that would make it a useful tool for the community, and at the same time not violating any policy. On Mon, Oct 16, 2017 at 1:06 PM, Christoph Hormann <o...@imagico.de> wrote: > On Monday 16 October 2017, Marc Gemis wrote: >> Wo

Re: [OSM-talk] New OSM Quick-Fix service

Would Yuri's tool be OK, if the proposed changes were limited to objects that were created/last edited after survey to the person that is using the tool ? I was thinking of a scenario where people try to help with a tag-renaming proposal. Such a tool would be handy to help them locate all objects

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Importing Villo! API data

I'm not sure whether it is a good idea to "copy" the address of a house to another object, that does not really have that address. As the original address information is "face 35-39 / tegenover 35-39", the bicycle rental place should not have addr:housenumber=35-39 imho m. On Sun, Oct 15, 2017

Re: [OSM-talk-be] mapping ALPR cameras (in Ghent)

Wit respect to the "to-node", IMHO any node on the way that shows the driving direction that is controlled is fine. So if the way to which you want the add the enforcement relation is drawn from left to right., any node right of the from node is fine. For a way drawn right to left, any node to the

Re: [OSM-talk-be] How we deal with this kind of note

Does a tourist information sign indicates any access rights ? Is the fact that a place is for rent indicates any access rights to the driveway ? It can still be access=customers (or visitors, but we don't have that). m. On Thu, Oct 5, 2017 at 10:58 AM, joost schouppe

Do you know this http://mijndev.openstreetmap.nl/~ligfietser/fiets/index.html?map=cycleways map ? It shows a lot of cycleway tags, including surfaces, cycleway routes and common mapping mistakes. There is nothing about shoulders, but I'm pretty sure that you ask to include them (on the Dutch
