開放街圖臺灣社群(OpenStreetMap 臺灣社群)很榮幸爭取到維基媒體基金會的聯盟補助,主要用在購置了兩台 Insta360 One X2 相機(與相對應的配件),並規劃自2022年3月開始,一直到2023年2月的街景踏查團與對應的編輯工作坊活動。將辦理六次實地踏查與至少六次的編輯工作坊。社群成員架設360相機在汽車上面,邊開車邊拍攝360相片,拍攝還沒有人拍攝街景的地方。之後回到電腦前,再來用拍攝到的相片為依據,編輯 OpenStreetMap 共編地圖添加資料,以及將沿途經過的景點與在地聚落,上傳相關照片到 Wikimedia Commons 多媒體站。

社群首先於2022年3月19號先在台北的摩茲工寮舉辦踏查團的前導工作坊,上個月(也就是2022年4月)24號舉辦了第一次的街景踏查團,在取車或自駕完成,先在央北重劃區先行,4台車共11人出發前往基隆、金山、萬里等行政區,其中並拍攝了國道三號部份缺少街景的路段。途中停留在仙洞隧道不過只拍了兩邊的洞口,隧道本體目前無法進入。再來一行人分為仙洞巖與迴車塔。仙洞嚴則是進入廟內的一線天,但燈光不佳拍攝效果不好。迴車塔則是拍攝台灣難得的人工車道斜坡。後於大武崙漁港附近會合,稍事休息補充熱量與水份,並且觀察週末的海灘即使是在疫情之下也仍有很多民眾海岸邊戲水。

中午與下午則到金山老街等地,在水尾漁港覓食與踏查取材。還有到金山老街品嘗芋圓美味之後,再兵分多路回到台北。

OpenStreetMap 台灣預計在本月(2022年5月)22日同樣於摩茲工寮舉辦第一次的街景踏查團編輯工作坊,會中可能會利用事前上傳到 Mapillary、KartaView 等開放的街景網站的照片來編輯 OpenStreetMap(變更集將會帶有 #streetsurveyTW 主題標籤),並會從拍攝的照片中挑選部份景點或維基媒體計畫中無照片或當地照片久未更新之處將其上傳到維基共享資源,同時利用上傳到維基共享資源的照片來編寫維基百科、維基導遊或維基數據等維基媒體專案。歡迎有興趣的人報名參與!

希望開放街圖與維基媒體等開放內容計畫能愈來愈好,產出更多高品質的資料!

關於聯盟補助

2021年第四季時,維基媒體基金會公佈了新的補助方案:維基媒體聯盟補助,這項補助會資助與維基媒體計畫有關的專案,但並非由各地的維基媒體自治體提出的提案。

關於 OpenStreetMap 臺灣

OpenStreetMap 臺灣由台灣關心投入 OpenStreetMap 的編輯者構成,自從 2010 年開始由個人獨自編輯變成集結更多人參與的共編地圖專案的在地社群。目前在台灣有在台北與 Wikidata 社群共同舉行 OpenStreetMap x Wikidata 月聚,以及不定期的踏查活動。

He creado un mapa web provisional donde se muestra el resultado de la incorporación de contenedores de reciclaje y de basura al mapa de OpenStreetMap en el municipio de Málaga.

La importación de contenedores de basura aún no está terminada. El gestor de tareas de la comunidad local donde se alojaba el proyecto de importación dejó de funcionar temporalmente, lo que ha provocado un retraso no deseado. No obstante, sigo trabajando en la importación de forma local y pronto se incorporarán al mapa los contenedores que faltan.

En paralelo y con la colaboración de Areyesl y Alan Grant, se están revisando la ubicación y características de los contenedores de reciclaje previamente importados para que la información incluida en el mapa de OpenStreetMap sea lo más precisa posible.

In the last year our Polish OpenStreetMap community started updating the data of parcel lockers and their locations in Poland. The popularity of these machines has significantly increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. We estimate the increase in the number of these devices in Poland at around 3,000 per year. The mapping campaign and the hard work of many contributors have led to the fact that the OSM data in the case of the introduced parcel machines in Poland is much more accurate than the data that the operators of these machines have. At the moment, we have over 4,200 parcel machines introduced to OSM. So we have potentially another advantage in promoting OpenStreetMap in Poland. Unfortunately, we cannot use it, because the parcel lockers are not rendered on www.openstreetmap.org.

The Polish OSM community made a huge contribution to standardize tagging of these features in accordance with all community guidelines. The process was quite difficult because the comments were diverse (and strong) and it was impossible to take into account all of them. Proposa link These steps were time consuming, but eventually we were able to work out the tagging scheme accepted by the OSM community.

Unfortunately, we are not able to develop a solution that would be satisfying for people responsible for maintaining the CartoCSS stylesheet. All our attempts failed.Git hub discussion

That is why I would like to ask a few questions: Why in some areas of our community project do we have total autocracy instead of democracy? Should the OSMF not change the rules for introducing changes to the style to follow the trends and changes in the world around us? Don’t you have the impression that our Democracy is turning into Anarchy?

THIS IS NOT A PROPOSAL.

In most Yangtze Delta cities, buses usually operate in three separate networks: City Buses (城市公交), Suburban Buses (城乡公交) and Town-Village Buses (镇村公交). Some of those do operate outside the city boundaries, which are classified as Intercity Buses (毗邻公交), they can also be a City Bus Line, a Suburban Bus Line or a Town-Village Bus Line.

There exist a group of enthusiasts who spend their weekends from one city to another city purely by buses or subway lines, such a route is possible by benefiting from the tremendously complicated and connected bus network of Yangtze Delta Cities. I’m one of those enthusiasts who usually spend my entire weekend on buses and subway lines from city to city, as such I do exactly have “local knowledge” that I could benefit others if I can draw these lines on OpenStreetMap. In such a circumstance I figured out that there isn’t a proper way to mark the type of a bus line. After a long discussion with some of the experienced users, I decided to add an unofficial tag network:route:bus:type to tackle this special issue around Yangtze Delta.

For values of network:route:bus:type I would temporary provide city, urban, suburban, town, intercity as five valid options, further extension is possible.

  • city (城市公交), suburban (城乡公交), town (镇村公交) options are used when 3-level bus networks exist in such an area.
  • urban (市域公交) option is used when there’s only a single bus network, this option should not use on it’s own since you don’t really need it.
  • intercity (毗邻公交) option is used for bus routes that operate outside the city boundary limit, this is a optional tag and should be used with the other options.

One of the things that note-viewer does is showing notes on a map. They are displayed as markers which we can click to find notes in the table. Map markers show us locations and statuses of notes, the rest of note details can be found in the table. But we can dig deeper into these details. From the last diary entry we know that note-viewer looks for links to osm elements inside note comments. When clicked these links display their linked element on the map. That shows us the element geometry, but now we may want to see more details about the element. The map is displayed using Leaflet library1 which supports adding popups to various items that are shown over the base layer. A popup seems like an appropriate place to show the element version, changeset, last editing user and tags.

What’s the best way for us to implement these popups? If we just bind the popup (layer.bindPopup()) to the element geometry on the map, the user would have to click the element for the popup to show up. Sometimes that’s not very convenient to do because of note markers covering the geometry. To make things easier we can open the popup right away (layer.openPopup()) when the element link is clicked. But that’s not the only thing that needs to happen at that moment, and we may find ourselves struggling a bit with Leaflet. Obviously the linked element may be outside the current map view and we need to pan and zoom to it (map.panTo(), map.flyTo() or others). Opening the popup could have done part of this job because by default the map pans to the opened popup. That still doesn’t take care of zooming. But you may think so what, just let the user zoom to the tip of the popup to find the element on the map.

We have now run three casual mapping parties in the “Social Mapping Sunday” series, and they are always a bit different but each one has been as fun as the last.

Shenton Park

In Shenton Park, lots of brand new mappers showed up and were introduced to OSM for the first time. About 13 of us in total! Meeting in the park and walking to nearby features to map worked well.

We didn’t come prepared with specific material to introduce new mappers, and we ended up spending a lot of time installing apps and setting up user accounts, etc. This was not a problem per-se, because it needs to be done. But it would have been smoother if we had a link to send people to which helped people get set up with the basics.

Hi Andy and DWG:

I did not take composing this response lightly. I have always mapped assuming good faith and intelligence with co-mappers, both which have seemingly diminished.

If I got a message about a changeset, I first checked the author’s edit count (i.e. experience), and whether they were locally mapping. You can visit my message list to see that I went well out of my way to address legitimate queries.

recent examples: changeset/105906567 changeset/116631815

If the author has minimal edits and no local presence, I will not encourage trolls. I especially detest, as probably many others also do, bird-doggers who have zero interest in the local mapping, and whose total focus is on policing, often using external tools. I do not know of any individuals who enjoy being watched over their shoulders.

A perfect example of this is: changeset/118228668

The author had unbelievably zero edits and brazenly stated, “I’m sure that you’ve been asked several times”, when in actuality, I never had been.

Another mapper joined the recent fray from nowhere. It looks like his modus operandi is already recognised: https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?pid=824528

And another with zero edits: changeset/116970678

Andy, as for the “asked more than once previously”, whom are you referring to? I only saw that one message a few months ago. You insinuated that there was a huge hue and cry. A bunch of BS on some external blog does not cut it.

As for the comments, the two machines I predominately use for OSM do not have keyboards, so even writing a few words is a chore. Additionally, it impossible to edit those comments, even when they are misplaced and incorrect. Thus, I cannot imagine those comments having any real value except for the pseudo policia.
