Re: [OSM-talk] Early History of OSM

2014-08-27 Thread Nick Whitelegg

Another thing about the 2006 map is that many of the ways that definitely were 
there then.

e.g.

http://osmz.ru/osm2006.html#14/51.0523/-0.7374

This is the Fernhurst area, West Sussex. There should be a primary road north 
to south and many more footpaths

Primary and secondary roads seem to be particularly prone to being missing. I 
think they were always highway=primary so not sure why that is.

Also a number of footpaths are missing. Is this perhaps because they are now 
highway=path and the 2006 map is being rendered with a 2006 stylesheet so they 
don't show up?

interesting, thanks for posting this. I have two remarks why it seems 
missleading for the less informed:
- the coastline is more recent than 2006
- you have kept the external data from natural earth (builtup areas for midzoom)

So actually in 2006 there was even less map than it appears ;-)

Yes, a lot of data that definitely was there seems to be missing.
Another example is by Andreas in Vienna:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:Vienna-2006-07-04.png

This probably comes from errors in either API 0.3 to 0.6 coversion, or
in cutting out american data.

Since August 2006 seems to have been around the time when coastline 
mapping started there probably was hardly any data.

In case this is of interest, the oldest coastline node currently used 
seems to be

http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/12183965

mapped as part of a man_made=pier originally.  The earliest PGS imported 
node still in use apparently is

Hi Clifford,

There's not early maps here, but Pascal neis recently worked out some great
statistics concerning the age of OSM data:

http://neis-one.org/2014/07/age-of-osm-objects/

These may provide a useful parallel to any early tiles; if nothing else
they should show you something about the amount of data that exists from
these early days.

Cheers, Joseph

I did some rendering with osm-history-renderer (

The redaction doesn't matter for reconstructing old data - for pre-2007 
we're talking API v0.3 data or earlier, with segments.

Hi,

 we have http://mvexel.github.io/thenandnow/#10/52.2644/5.2899, the Then
 and Now from 2007 to current. But I'd really like some images of the
 very earliest OSM maps. 

Anyone who wants to really go down that road and has some time to spare
would have to do roughly the following:

* get very old planet file from http://planet.openstreetmap.org/cc-by-sa/

* potentially check out -r2744 of
svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/utils/osm-extract/planetosm-excerpt-area.pl
and the libraries it refers in order to be able to cut out a rectangular
section from your planet file

* if you want to go the Mapnik route, either get very old matching
osm2pgsql or, potentially better, use
svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/utils/conv05/04to05.pl to convert old
data to a format readable by current osm2pgsql

* alternatively and for extra authenticity, grab osmarender from SVN and
run it over your data.

You might even want to grab an old coastline data set from somewhere, or
run Jochen's osmcoastline across the old planet file but maybe that
would be pushing it ;)

I happen to have a number of really old PostgreSQL databases lying
around and I tried to quickly expose them to anyone who would like to
have a go at rendering old maps. Caveat: These *only* cover the non US
part of the planet (the databases were created for animation purposes
and at the time, US data was plentiful but relatively static and
therefore useless for animations).

So if you want to render a historic map of your (non-US) area, grab
mapnik and a style file and connect to the following:

host name: skye.geofabrik.de
port: 5432
user: guest
password: guest

for database name, use one of these for the respective snapshot:

h060814
h060903
h061023
h061105
h061205
h070103

h071205
h080102
h080206
h080305
h080402
h080507
h080604

The data in these tables is organised in a way that matches today's
style sheets, i.e. you will find columns like addr:housenumber even
though you're unlikely to find data there.

I can also supply SQL dumps of any of the above if desired.
