Thanks to those of you who have added bus routes! (it's quite time-consuming to say the least - especially adding the stops correctly)
Route S3 (Rivonia) also shows the stops and (what I hope to be) correct tagging: http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/-26.0561/28.0651&layers=T Interestingly, I have tried to adhere to the "new public transport schema" of 2011 (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Public_Transport), where the stop position is indicated on the route (which is semantially correct), as opposed to just relying on tags on the bus stop amenity (node) itself. However, the "transport map" does not seem to render these correctly, so in addition to the cleaner new tagging scheme, I've adhered to the more traditional way of marking bus stops. Once it is supported though, the different stops (and their numbers etc) should be correctly represented. Finally, if you've added a Gautrain bus map route, please add it to the "Gautrain bus" route master, which "ties together" all the bus routes. Again, see S3 Rivonia as an example... (none of the other routes have been added at this stage). Finally, grant, the real-time bus map is awesome! Any further discussions with Gautrain in terms of obtaining an 'official' data feed? -- Dawid Loubser <da...@travellinck.com> Op Do, 2013-11-07 om 12:18 +0000 skryf Gerhardus Geldenhuis: > Thanks Grant, > > Route J1 and J2 should be good examples for all of the tags needed if > you want to have the stops and routes display on all the maps. > > > Regards > > > > On 7 November 2013 11:03, Grant Slater <openstreet...@firefishy.com> > wrote: > > Hi Talk-ZA, > > A few of us (DawidLoubser, Gerhardus Geldenhuis, johng & > likely > others) have recently added all the Gautrain Bus routes. > > http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_South_Africa/Public_transport_routes#Gautrain_Bus > > I have hacked together a live map for viewing buses on the > routes (zoom in): > http://firefishy.com/tmp/bus/ > > It also shows all the bus stops mapped with operator="Gautrain > Bus" > > Please help map the remaining bus stops :) > Or check to see if the bus routes are correct. > > The Hatfield routes do not exactly match the published route > map at > the start (stops are identical), the routes used seem to be > "optimised". > Another map for viewing bus routes is http://openbusmap.org/ > but it > hasn't yet updated with all the routes. > > Anyone know why the buses occasionally run through the night? > Training > or something?
