Good idea, totally off topic but, go to https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=-37.9088066&lng=145.3647858&z=17&pKey=246259583949249&focus=photo and press play

you get an animation of Puffing Billy crossing the historic trestle bridge at Selby. Sorry I didn't see any markers but someone with more download MB might.

Tony

Maybe a slow train ride will capture them on Mapillary?

Subject: Re: [talk-au] Importing 200 emergency markers?

Hi

This subject was discussed in October.
The dataset they are sharing is likely to be
https://data.gov.au/data/dataset/esta-emergency-markers/resource/44add10f-a4
78-4ab0-a6fa-227493663b28

and it was determined that we do not have the right licence to use this
data.

I say likely to be the same dataset, I am fairly sure but no guarantee.

Tony

Are these emergency markers created and maintained by the Puffing
Billy Railway?

If not they might be sharing a dataset with you that they don't have
permission to share for this purpose?

Maybe just create a simple page on the wiki describing what you
intent to do along with a link to information about the received
permission? Just to make it easier to find in the future if there are any
concerns.

That sounds fine to me, this email consulting with the community,
informing of your plan and what steps you've taken is enough in my
opinion.



I would ask if you could share more information about the permission
you obtained? So long as you have sufficient rights to submit the
data under the OSM contributor terms.

Hi,

I have a list of 200 emergency marker locations along 22km of the
Puffing Billy Railway which were provided to me by the railway with
permission to include them in OSM.

I've been reading through https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import
- most of which appears to be geared toward larger imports and using
publicly available data with various licenses. The data for my import
is not publicly available, and was provided to me when I asked to
import it into OSM.

I've searched overpass-turbo and there are no
highway=emergency_access_points, name~"PBM", or ref~"PBM" near the
list of nodes I have to import. This indicates that none of the nodes
are already mapped.

Based on the example file on
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM_file_format I've converted
the emergency marker list into xml, the start of which looks like:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <osm version="0.6"> <node
id="-3" lat="-37.907468" lon="145.36039">
   <tag k="ref" v="PBM003"/>
   <tag k="highway" v="emergency_access_point"/> </node> ...

In JOSM I can import this file and merge the layer. I'm intending to
then upload this with appropriate an comment noting that the data was
provided by Puffing Billy Railway with permission to include it in OSM.

I'm proposing to import this as a one off, single change set under my
existing OSM username.

Is this a reasonable way to do this import? Is there anything else I
should do?

Regards,
Kim
