Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Typos in Townland names

Thanks for the feedback, I agree. I have given them their unique Logainm ref tags and, in an effort to help distinguish them, I have given them an alt_name "Rahard - Robeen Parish" etc. I leave all three with the name= Rahard. On Mon, Feb 20, 2017 at 3:52 PM, Patrick Matthews

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Typos in Townland names

Thanks, I have started mapping some "X (part of)" townlands as exclaves now (part of the 'parent' townland relation). This works well for the most part. I noticed that the 'parent' Townland usually has an additional area, for example "including 10A 1R 7P dd. portion". This area matches the area

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Typos in Townland names

Today I hope to upload my list of typo changes for Mayo to OSM. When Rory runs his Logainm script tomorrow, I hope that it will add more logainm tags because of this, let's see. Most of the typos are just alternative spellings, The list here are just the ones that I plan to overwrite. There could

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Typos in Townland names

Thanks for the OSM OSI comparison map, this is great for showing up mistakes in the townland boundaries and I even found a missing townland or two. This umap seems pretty cool too. I notice that many townlands without logainm tags are because of the typos. Fixing those should allow the script to

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Typos in Townland names

I believe it doesn't work over https because overpass.openstreetmap.ie (which is being used for the querying) doesn't support https, though I'm open to correction on that. The overpass-api.de server does support it, but I've found it to be a little slower for this map. Mark On Thu, 16 Feb 2017

There is also a umap at http://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/map/townlands-missing-logainm-data_83833 which displays townlands without a logainm:ref tag. This might be useful in helping to locate townlands with typos. Bear in mind that it only displays data above zoom 11 (to try to reduce browser

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Typos in Townland names

That sounds like a good idea. If possible, it would be useful if it would link to the townland relation to allow easy editing. Once that smaller list is compiled its a matter of going through them one by one and identifying the correct name whether that be in OSM, OSi, Loganim or the map sheet

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Typos in Townland names

Hi Colm, Thanks for your addition, every little helps! I agree with you that we must not assume that the mistake is always in the OSM entry. Often the entry in OSM is of greater value, even if it does not match any official names, for example, I have added the local name of a townland "Guesdian"

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Typos in Townland names

just to follow up on my own post, another way to tackle this is to take a look at Rory's Loganim import page on townlands.ie which I highly recommend you take a look at. https://www.townlands.ie/static/logainm/ Each red x on these pages means that the loganim irish names tags are not in OSM for

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Typos in Townland names

Hi, I corrected at least one - Kiltalown in Dublin- after checking with Rory: http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/4513764 However, in dealing with 60,000+ names, we need to be careful and not assume that all the mistakes are in the OSM data entry - it may be that there are errors in

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Typos in Townland names

I think Rory has a script that is adding the Irish names for everything based on Loganim data cross referenced by townland, its CP, Barony and county. I would assume that there is a quantity that are not showing as matching. This may flag up the ones you are talking about too but I'm saying this

[OSM-talk-ie] Typos in Townland names

Hi all, I found a lot of typos in townland names in county Mayo and i presume it is similar in other counties. As of 12.01.2017, About 4.3% of townlands in Mayo have a mistake in the spelling. That is roughly 130 townland names just for Mayo! I think that is something important we can correct now
