Re: [talk-ph] is the text "Province of" necessary in the is_in:state tags?

FYI, I believe I removed all instance of "Province of" in the is_in:state tag. The db should be a bit smaller now. Since the major source of the data came from GNS, a few observations I noticed: - there is state/province labeled Kalinga-Apayao. This should be either Kalinga or Apayao only. I

[talk-ph] Philippines Territorial Border

Hi, I've just updated the Territorial border for the Philippines. I used the map available here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ph_Territorial_Map.png I don't know how to make this png a background in JOSM, so I just did a best guess for the points. Hopefully I haven't messed up the relatio

Re: [talk-ph] RFC re-tag Halsema Highway from primary to trunk

It seems like most, if not all, would agree to the following guidelines: -- trunk roads would be the town-to-town roads that crosses provincial boundaries. - should also make all roads directly linking town to town as primary highways what think guys? On Wed, Feb 9, 2011 at 9:53 AM, tutubi wro

Re: [talk-ph] RFC re-tag Halsema Highway from primary to trunk

sounds like "trunk hunting" to me :P trunks are visible at a certain zoom level on my nuvi and mapsource... zooming in will reveal the primaries. there are others out there should be upgraded to be visible to get the idea of general route to take btw, i'm browsing my off-line map and noticed pan-

Re: [talk-ph] QC Scout Area Mapping Party on February 12!

Hi everyone, If you just want to meet up and talk about maps, mapping, and GPS devices, then you can skip the morning field survey and join us in the afternoon meet-up. And if you can't come due to prior commitments but would like to help out, then mapping the area from Bing and Yahoo in advance

Look at this page: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:name We have various name tags possible: name=*, official_name=*, alt_name=*, loc_name=*, old_name=*, etc. Let's use name=* for the name that most people would recognize and use official_name=* for the official name used by the government,

[talk-ph] Fwd: [OSM-talk] Bing coverage

Use this map to browse for hi-res bing imagery. Once an area was viewed at zoom 14 or higher the updated coverage overlay will be visible even at lower zooms. So far, I triggered several renders in Mindanao: http://ant.dev.openstreetmap.org/bingimageanalyzer/?lat=10.192676169866743&lon=122.167940

Re: [talk-ph] calamba-sta cruz famy junction road?

I am primarily responsible for renaming a stretch of road between Calamba and Pila as the "Calamba - Santa Cruz - Famy Junction Road". I based it on online documents from the Department of Budget and Management and/or the Department of Public Works and Highways[1]. I support the motion that the

Recalling this discussion ... in the same light, shouldn't we upgrade the Bagabag - Bontoc road as trunk too since it connects Nueva Vizcaya - Ifugao - Mountain Province? And it passes through the provincial capitols too. On Tue, Feb 1, 2011 at 10:49 AM, Rally de Leon wrote: > +1 trunk - from

Re: [talk-ph] calamba-sta cruz famy junction road?

I am okay with renaming it. A least from its current name *calamba-sta cruz famy junction road* which is no longer relevant I believe the old name was still from the early days of editing when about the only road south of Manila was the provincal road that went around Laguna de Bay. I also believ

[talk-ph] ondoy/bing changed river courses

Hi, I noticed that some river courses have changed recently around Marikina and San Mateo based on Bing images. I suspect its either due to Ondoy or simply Bing's recent imagery (compared to yahoo!). Image date range around this area is October 2009 - Feb 2010. I suggest you guys revisit your r
