Hi Eugene, > 2. or help in increasing the geocoding-related data in the OSM database?
The app will do geocode Street number / House number. Iphone and Android phones have buillt-in GPS. The app will automatically get the coordinate (lat/long) + input of the user (i.e. Street No and Street Name) and send it to database server (postgresql). OSM database server is not probably suited to this app at the moment since according to Maning is will not allow bot client. Iphone app acts like bot sending data to the server with one user. Although, I am thinking of having multiple user names (e.g. 10 users with password embedded in the app) but the problem still we need to register the 10 users in OSM database as well. I think we can't do that with one email address. I will be using PHP in the iphone app for connection and update of the database. I need web server - Apache server with PHP extension and postgresql server, if not a LAMP (Linux Apache MySQL PHP) will do as well. Once this system is running system and got the data, we can easily upload the geocoded street address into OSM database from time to time. Do you know any internet server provider in Phils who offers Linux, Apache, Postgres, PHP) and what is their monthly / yearly rate / price? (BTW, I am residing in Melbourne, Australia right now) Regards, Noli On 3/1/11, Eugene Alvin Villar <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Noli, > > I'm still not sure what kind of app you want to do. > > Are you developing an app that will: > > 1. do geocoding and/or reverse geocoding using currently existing data > in the OSM database? > > 2. or help in increasing the geocoding-related data in the OSM database? > > 3. or both? _______________________________________________ talk-ph mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph
