Re: [talk-au] Service road highway areas as frontage road access

Thank you all for your feedback. For what it is worth, the editor has responded on a different changeset. I've written what ended up being War and Peace to explain the importance of mapping roads in a linear fashion, and encouraged them to join this list.

Re: [talk-au] Service road highway areas as frontage road access

I've updated the intersection to a similar layout to that suggested by Thorsten. I have a passing familiarity with the area. It looks like Ewan has just suggested a similar layout. While making that edit I noticed Burwood Highway is tagged with foot=yes. My first response was that's wrong as

Re: [talk-au] Service road highway areas as frontage road access

Hi Dian, I know the area well and this is my Mapillary showing access to the shops in the service road. Rose Street is very narrow and appears to have had a bit of a makeover at that

Re: [talk-au] Vic State Forest Boundary Files

Hi Tony, DELWP can only give approval to use datasets that they create/control. Lots of the datasets on Data Vic aren’t from DELWP and wouldn’t be covered, but many of the useful ones are theirs. Unless DELWP created the Vic subset of the emergency markers dataset, I don’t imagine that they

Re: [talk-au] Vic State Forest Boundary Files

A simple observation that statewide GIS databases of millions of people and millions of land parcels and all the teething pains that come with that...you Down Under seem to be doing fine. These don't sprout up overnight like mushrooms after rain. Good to see the gears turning. From

Re: [talk-au] Vic State Forest Boundary Files

Hi Andrew, yes, happy to take it on. Is there a template for data requests online somewhere that explains why the waiver is needed, that I can use as an example? Do you think we should try an ambit request for all DELWP CC datasets that are available online, on sites like Data Vic and

Re: [talk-au] Vic State Forest Boundary Files

I think it'll be much easier to request a waiver for a wider set of Victorian open data. DELWP has been very accommodating and kindly granted us a waiver for Vicmap, so I can't see there being a problem with other CC BY data like

Re: [talk-au] Vic State Forest Boundary Files

Hi all, a brief update on Vic State Forest datasets... My suggestion that the VicMap Crown Land Tenure database was "a mess" probably had anyone who knows about GIS data structures rolling their eyes at my ignorance. It didn't make any sense to me either, so I spent a couple more days studying

Re: [talk-au] Service road highway areas as frontage road access

Looking on mapillary, it seems you can also enter there, so the current mapping is wrong. Also, I can’t see any legal reason, besides it being dangerous if there is traffic, to cross all the way from the parking lot at the top to that Burnwood Highway Service Road at the bottom, or the
