Inspired by Yousuke Ozawa’s SatelliteFonts, I wanted to create something similar with OpenStreetMap.

Ulovka in Planina nad Vrhniko

Postanowiłem zrobić krótkie podsumowanie. Nie obiecuje, że będę je publikował cyklicznie, ale tym razem warto bo sporo się działo.

Począwszy od poniedziałku rozpoczęliśmy wysyłanie maili do jednostek samorządu terytorialnego na dzień dzisiejszy wysłanych zostało około 2000 maili. Z tego zebraliśmy już 160 odpowiedzi przy czym część samorządów przekazała zapytanie do swoich jednostek, więc samych maili, które dostaliśmy było znacznie więcej. Ze względu na skalę zadania oprócz mnie maile są wysyłane i przetwarzane przez:

Mateusz konieczny stworzył na wiki zgodnie z wytycznymi społeczność strony dotyczące poszczególnych technicznych aspektów działania naszego działania:

osm.wiki/Organised_Editing/Activities/AED_mapping_campaign_in_Poland

osm.wiki/Import_of_AED_data_in_Poland

Jednocześnie projekt uzyskał patronat Głównego Geodety Kraju, pana dra hab. inż. Waldemara Izdebskiego, co mnie mocno zdopingowało, by starać się o pozyskanie kolejnych partnerów i zacząć poszukiwać możliwości zwiększania zasięgów.

Estamos muy cerca de tener nuestra primera reunión trimestral latinoamericana de mapeadores en OpenStreetMap. Tú también puedes unirte sin importar si apenas empiezas a mapear o ya eres parte de una comunidad de ayuda de mapeo abierto.

En el wiki de MapTime Bogotá se muestran los detalles de la reunión para este sábado 29 de enero (dentro de dos semanas a la escritura de este post).

What’s there

Based on ONOSM

We need an easy way that people can add their business to the map without necessarily having to create an account and having to learn how to edit. One such way would be to add a note to the map but even then for those who don’t know very well how OpenStreetMap works they can make some mistakes by adding a note with no information other than the name (I’ve encountered many notes opened like this), so how could we improve it so that more people can have their business on the OSM? One easy way would be to create a form that would generate a note in OSM for editors to use.

By bringing a simpler design and illustrations I want it to be easy to use and ready for use in mapping campaigns and can be used by experienced mappers or even those who have never had contact with OpenStreetMap but want their business on the map

There is a Chinese account that has normalized the KFC tag that its changeset boundary is so big recently, which included Taiwan in it. The changeset boundary is so big that makes QA tools like OSMCha not function as expected, probably Overpass API limitation. The reviewer has to manully review the changeset if there is anything wrong. As a Taiwanese mapper I check if he change something inside the Taiwan boundary, and foundout he does what he said. The mapper stated in his changeset comment said he did not touch KFC in the “Taiwan area”, which in my humble option is not quite necessary.

I will recommend that even though the cause is QA tools problems, that can not check edit in a country if it is problem changeset, might be a good idea to avoid such a big changeset boundary. Split the big changeset into a much smaller, much checkable changeset that lets QA tools like OSMCha to function normally. This could avoid potiental disruption. Heavy mappeers could focus on mapping, not changeset comment discussion.

Even though Taiwan is a small place, there are many hard-working mappers that contribute to OpenStreetMap, following the truth to map stuff that exists in front of them, that can be observed by their own eyes. But sometimes we have to deal with people who do not follow the on-the-ground truth, forcing Taiwanese to accept things not observabe on the ground.

OSM in many areas has a complete street network and has for quite some time. What it is lacking compared to many map sources is a comprehensive POI index. Stores could be there but the data likely is outdated, even then you could have a major chain business that isn’t even shown on the map. So what do we do?

We don’t need some complex editor, just a stripped down editor that can leave a poi and has a search for presets and chains that makes adding one as simple as possible. From there you can add more information but by default it should just show the basics. No distractions and dead simple so anyone with a phone or on the web can easily add a tone of POIs for even a simple quick walk.

Secondly, POIs need to expire and autodeleted; to keep the information from getting stale POIs need to be checked into or deleted automatically after a year if there is no new activity. Mappers should be able to subscribe to an area and get emails warning of pending expiration. The checking API could be open to app developers.

Thirdly, we need a TEMP layer for maps a temp data layer that can be deleted daily that basically is the dumping ground for temporary data such as road obstructions, traffic and events. Basically a meta database that allows apps to share and make use of more realtime data. This can allow for more uses of the OSM map and by contributing to this could reveal closed bridges and other obstructions and improved the map. The more data that is shared between apps the more that can be improved.

Per creare un collegamento personalizzato su OSM è necessario innanzitutto installare il plugin Utilsplugin 2. Aprire le preferenze (F12) e selezionare “Impostazioni Utilsplugin 2”

Quindi, nella finestra che compare, si può inserire un qualsiasi URL personalizzato. Per esempio, per inserire un collegamento alla cronologia di un elemento su PeWu basta inserire una nuova riga e inserire come url https://pewu.github.io/osm-history/#{#type}/{#id} Salvare e chiudere la finestra delle impostazioni. Poi, è necessario scaricare una porzione qualsiasi di mappa.

Spostandoci sulla barra menu orizzontale in alto, selezioniamo “Dati” e poi “Seleziona indirizzo URL personalizzato”

最近有一个中國來的口座正規化KFC的標籤，舞的範圍有夠大，編輯變動的範圍猶閣有共臺灣包入去，予一寡QA工具攏無法度正常視覺化顯示變啥物魍，應該是 Overpass API 的限制造成的，愛手工檢查是毋是有真真正正共臺灣範圍的物件創到。伊的編輯留話的所在有特別強調無創「臺灣地區」的 KFC，我是感覺這敢有需要特別強調？

建議是講，雖然 QA 工具出問題，無法度確認是毋是有問題的編輯，雖然是弄一个國家範圍的物件，欲共舞的範圍創較細的，分幾若擺來編輯上傳，較袂引起誤解，嘛較簡單會當審核內容敢有問題。有法度閃避遮的問題，𠢕人嘛會當專心畫𪜶所在的物件，毋免予人感覺有問題愛閣開時間溝通討論。

臺灣雖然是小所在，嘛是有真濟辛辛苦苦拍拚骨力，維護圖資的圖客，足頂真依照事實，猶閣有眼前會當看著的物件來畫地圖。毋過不時有人欲來挑戰加上非事實的物件，強逼臺灣遮的人愛接受非在庄在地草地觀察會著的物仔。這个代誌是無遵守 OpenStreetMap 的現地觀察，才會當加入 OpenStreetMap 的 on the ground truth 原則。

OpenStreetMap 親像𪜶的姊妹仔計畫 Wikipedia 仝款，是人人會當看著怪怪的物件，著會使修正，甚至實際上無存在的物仔嘛會當刣掉，毋免有較懸權限的口座來做。甚至較需要了解佮操作智識的 reverter 嘛毋免一定是管理員才會當做，有社群共識一般的口座就會使做。OpenStreetMap 計畫內是較平等的，無講一定欲予較資深的人較有資格，有理就好。

Im Vergleich zum Vorjahr hat sich die Zahl der neueingetragenen Kilometertafeln (an Autobahnen in .de) etwa verdoppelt. Das bedeutet, dass wir in ‘22 die 20%-Marke locker schaffen werden :)

“Gewinner” ist Bayern, wo die Hälfte der neuen herkommen.

“Verlierer” ist Hessen, wo sich die Menge der Kilometertafeln um 20 verringert hat. Wenn man mit extrapoliert, dass da auch welche dazugekommen sein sollten, dürfte die Zahl der abhandengekommenen noch etwas grösser sein. Ich schau mal, ob ich rausfinde, wo die abgeblieben sind.

Met de Omgevingswet krijgen burgers nieuwe mogelijkheden om invloed uit te oefenen op beslissingen over hun leefomgeving. Vroeger was burgerparticipatie een door de gemeente of projectontwikkelaar geregisseerde activiteit, meestal aan het einde van een lang planning en voorbereidingstraject. Dit gaf de indruk dat er nog maar weinig bij te sturen viel.

Maar nu is dat helemaal anders, inzichten veranderen. Leefbaarheid en burgerparticipatie is helemaal in. Juist nu zijn er nieuwe mogelijkheden. Open Data is nu vrij beschikbaar over alle aspecten van onze omgeving. Combineer dit met lokale kennis en ervaring van buurtbewoners en je krijgt een compleet beeld. Deze aanpak word ook door gemeenten onderkend. Met de juiste data en wat hulp van de BuurtKaart wordt bewonersparticipatie wél een succes.

Het proces in het kort

Hi folks, for everyone interested in OpenStreetMap’s fantastic road data… I’ve just posted a series of blogs about unsealed roads in Victoria. I’ve pitched it at cyclists rather than mappers to widen the audience, but you should still find lots of interest I hope.

https://little-maps.com/2022/01/12/the-great-vic-gravel-route-exploring-victoria-on-unsealed-roads/

It starts with the question, how far can you ride across Victoria without hitting a paved road? Then displays Victoria’s major ‘gravel zones’, and plots the route that crosses Victoria from west to east which contains the shortest possible distance of paved roads. It’s very circuitous.

A series of supplementary posts expand on the main theme and describe how the maps and routes were made. I hope you find it interesting. Best wishes Ian

Este artículo hace parte de una serie de artículos relacionados con notas:

• Las notas de OpenStreetMap.
• Manipulación de notas.
• Análisis de notas.
• Tipos de notas.
• Técnicas de creación y resolución de notas.

Después de poco más de 1 año de haberme dado cuenta de la gran cantidad de notas abiertas en Colombia, y ver que nadie de la comunidad colombiana estaba resolviéndolas, hoy 10 de enero de 2022, ya puedo decir que ¡hemos cerrado todas las notas viejas de Colombia, habiendo logrado nuestro objetivo! Ahora en adelante, los miembros de la comunidad solo debemos mantener esa baja o nula cantidad de notas abiertas, respondiendo a tiempo a las personas que dan retroalimentación, y hacer las modificaciones respectivas en el mapa.
