I think we can add non-gps ferry route on water bays known to be deep enough (eg subic area), or no known fishpens or fish cages in the area. (not recommended in laguna de bay).
In night-time or zero-visibility navigation using untested ferrt route, smaller pump boats may end up going through fishnets :-) eg. the short pumpboat ride between Dos Palmas Resort & Isla Punting Buhangin can be tricky since there are shallow water/sand bars On Sun, May 29, 2011 at 11:33 PM, Eugene Alvin Villar <sea...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi Ed, > > I think there is no problem with adding a non-GPS-based ferry route. > There isn't any major routing decisions to be made for this short > ferry ride and somebody else can improve the ferry route geometry in > the future. > > I don't want to add it now though since I'm not sure where the > terminal is in Subic Bay Freeport Zone. > > Eugene > > > On Sun, May 29, 2011 at 11:24 PM, Ed Garcia <eppgar...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I suggest adding the ferry route from the terminal at the Waterfront road > to > > the Island so that it can be used by the routing services if one requests > a > > route from Manila to the Island. > > > > I have just added the resort to waypointsdotph: > > http://waypoints.ph/vmap.php?wpt=rr0082 > > If a ferry route is added at OSM, the routing services can calculate > routes > > up to the island. > > > > Well, I guess my question is, need we wait for GPS traces of the ferry > > route? or can we go ahead and plot the most probable route of the ferry? > > > > > > On Sun, May 29, 2011 at 10:01 PM, Eugene Alvin Villar <sea...@gmail.com> > > wrote: > >> > >> I just sent them an email message (though it was to > >> sa...@grandeislandresort.com--there was no general email address). :-) > >> > >> On Sun, May 29, 2011 at 6:48 PM, maning sambale > >> <emmanuel.samb...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> > Dear Eugene, > >> > > >> > Have you tried sending them a message with the correct html embed > code? > >> > > >> > On Sun, May 29, 2011 at 5:56 PM, Eugene Alvin Villar < > sea...@gmail.com> > >> > wrote: > >> >> Grande Island Resort in Subic Bay is using OSM to show their location > >> >> in their website: http://www.grandeislandresort.com/location.html > >> >> > >> >> Unfortunately, the marker shown in the map is about a hundred > >> >> kilometers off the actual location of the resort: > >> >> http://osm.org/go/4zMqrIm?m > >> >> > >> > -- > >> > cheers, > >> > maning > >> > >> _______________________________________________ > >> talk-ph mailing list > >> talk-ph@openstreetmap.org > >> http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph > > > > > > > > -- > > website administrator: > > - www.waypoints.ph > > - reeflife.eppgarcia.com > > > > PADI Divemaster #491048 > > > > > > -- > http://vaes9.codedgraphic.com > > _______________________________________________ > talk-ph mailing list > talk-ph@openstreetmap.org > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph >
