[OSM-talk-be] Idea!

Hi All, I have a new idea to get some funding for OpenStreetMap-Belgium. Our biggest problem is that we have no budget to organize anything at the moment (I'm funding most things out of my own pocket still except part of the missing maps party). This idea may also grow into an actual business base

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Idea!

I'm already doing this, so you have my interest. Not exactly sure who the customers would be. Also, you say we would be remunerated and at the same time OSM Belgium gets funding. Those customers must have deep pockets, or I must have misunderstood. :-) Anyway, it sounds like a good idea. I'll sta

In Finland they seem to think it's a good idea to also add the road signs themselves. I tend to agree with them, but trying to add them all, may not make sense, ofc as there are a gazillion of them. There are no applications making use of this information, but for us it would enable double checkin

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Idea!

I'm being paid to keep ArcelorMittal site in Zelzate up to date, I actually receive detailed plans from AM to accomplish this. Especially all their emergency exist are very important to them. So there is a legit business case for these type of tasks. But it is an ongoing effort as from time to ti

Re: [OSM-talk-be] roadsigns plugin adapted for Belgium

It's a good idea to map signs, but in general, It's difficult to survey the exact location of a sign. It's not visible from the air, so you need a picture with context to see where it's placed. That's possible for a few signs, but I fear we don't have enough man power to complete this for Belgium (

Re: [OSM-talk-be] roadsigns plugin adapted for Belgium

In fact, it's because Mapillary has started recognising street signs that I've started to look into how we would map them. Their recognition is still in its infancy, which is understandable as they want to be able to recognise them all over the world. They even created a specialised font for them!

[OSM-talk-be] Meers of Broek(land) of Wet Meadow(land) ?

Hallo, is er een mogelijkheid om nat,lager gelegen hooi- en/of landbouwgrond (meestal tegen een rivier of water) te taggen met 'meers' of 'broek' , want er bestaat eigenlijk bij mijn weten zo geen tag in OSM ? zie ook : http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meers_%28toponiem%29 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki

Re: [OSM-talk-be] Meers of Broek(land) of Wet Meadow(land) ?

Zie http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural%3Dwetland Ik denk dus landuse=farmland/meadow + natural=wetland + wetland= wet_meadow/swamp Hoewel ik denk dat het vooral over weiland zal gaan, en minder over kweekgrond. Natte kweekgrond is immers enorm moeilijk te bewerken. Dus landuse=meadow

Ik vind dat ze daar wat teveel gecensureerd hebben. De lucht tussen de 'spijlen' was toch geen deel van het 'kunstwerk'. Groeten, Van Jo, die heel dat gebrek aan FOP ook ten zeerste betreurt. Op 8 februari 2015 22:25 schreef Sander Deryckere : > Dit is zowat de beste foto van het atomium die we

Re: [OSM-talk-be] roadsign plugin adapted for Belgium

All they are good for is mark what is the 'ground truth'. Thereby showing, where the tags the ways got as a result, came from. For your noexit example. One would set traffic_sign=F45 exactly where the signpost is located. In that case the job is done. No need to tag a way (anymore. As far as I am
