Re: [Talk-ca] BC2020i OSM Distributed Model and Education

There are a lot of resources available. The tool you use in many ways doesn't matter too much when you are explaining. ARCgis format can be converted to .OSM format. All the GIS tools use the same basic idea of nodes and ways. Some use layers, OSM just bungs it all in together. There are

Re: [Talk-ca] BC2020i OSM Distributed Model and Education

I repeat myself: less buzzword-compliance, please. More embracing of tried-and-true OSM tenets and culture, like front-loaded planning, ongoing, wide-area project management on something with nationwide scope as this, wiki writing/updating both intent and ongoing status, making available

Re: [Talk-ca] BC2020i OSM Distributed Model and Education

Fair enough. It’s jargon from the “innovation, creativity and entreprenship” focus in many education sectors these days. Eduspeak, agreed. What I meant to say is that the workflow and the technology to support the teaching and learning environment for future “citizen scientists” needs to be

Re: [Talk-ca] BC2020i OSM Distributed Model and Education

I think we need to identify the possible problem areas and those things that would be useful to the students. Not all students will have the same needs. The first is we really want to avoid students tracing building outlines in iD. Experience has shown they aren't very good at it. JOSM and the

Bien reçu Je t’informerai lorsque nous aurons des données issues de la pré-production. Le processus que nous sommes à mettre en place utilise directement le nuage de point. L’identification individuelle des bâtiments est l’un des deux principaux problèmes que nous rencontrons : - La trop grande

Re: [Talk-ca] BC2020i OSM Distributed Model and Education

I don’t mind reviewing the OSM education wiki for lessons learned and “promising practices” and seeing how it might inform the design of a mapathon event aligned to the K-12 curricula and postsecondary capstone project model. It will be messy, but that’s the nature of the beast. To use the

Pierre, Je suis aussi intéressé à collaborer à tester de telles données  Les milieux urbains denses devraient poser un problème particulier pour l'identification des immeubles individuels. À voir comment les modèles de classification peuvent performer en utilisant les données d'élévation.

Re: [Talk-ca] using image recognition to create building foot prints.

I think when you have something available we should be able to find resources to double check the quality and also to work out a process to import them. The latter will be interesting both from the technical point of view and the acceptance within the OSM community. My concern on the Canadian
