When doing indoor mapping, some mappers prefer to use the addr:floor to indicate where POIs are located in relation to the building.

While layers are used to describe relationships between crossing or overlapping (large) features (e.g. a building built over a creek, etc.).

Have you seen OpenLevelUp? http://openlevelup.net/?lat=14.377283&lon=121.044829&z=19&t=0&lvl=0&tcd=1&urd=0&bdg=0&pic=1&nte=0&ilv=1

Kudos for the great mapping work. Thanks!

Thank you, Robert.

Good luck!

That’s a huge crowd! Congratulations!

What do you mean by “data”, exactly?

The full planet database dump is at: http://planet.openstreetmap.org/

And the data for VN is downloadable from here: http://download.geofabrik.de/asia/vietnam.html

JOOST, Check out the link to the OSM contributor stats repo for getting uids out of the API

Joost, I think that went over my head and you were probably asking for the query I used: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/eTp

Caveat: only works in the API dev instance (see https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:{{data:overpass,server=http://dev.overpass-api.de/api_mmd/}}), but that one is being upgraded at the moment, and unavailable for another 6-7 weeks, according to the administrators.

For reference: https://github.com/drolbr/Overpass-API/pull/225

Hello Joost.

It’s one of the available fields when I query the database for event metrics using OSM Contributor Stats.

For very, short lists, I use http://whosthat.osmz.ru

Oh, I didn’t know you’re the active developer of Vespucci until now. :)

Currently, I don’t use OsmAnd for any serious surveying. That POI data collection exercise is done by several other individuals. OsmAnd for me is just a good enough all-around tool.

Very interested in learning more about the customized presets, and I’m willing to give Vespucii another spin, to test this for a project I have in mind.

Thanks for the feedback!

I believe that OsmAnd offers the best balance between the features I use, or prefer to have: * navigation * browsing and POI search (online and offline) * data logging * adding rudimentary POIs and uploading direct to OSM * editing basic POI information

And, of course, it’s also open source, which goes for Vespucci, as well.

As an editor, I think Vespucci is better than OsmAnd. On very rare occasions where I really need to edit polygons from the field, I’d use Vespucci. Given a choice, I’d rather work on JOSM, on a computer when working with anything beyond simple POI edits. Even on a phablet, I find Vespucci fiddly to use. The experience is probably different on larger tablets, but I’m not fond of those devices.

As for the OsmAnd UI, there’s plenty of room for improvement. I like the Maps.Me interface (but it’s not comparable to OsmAnd, feature-wise) and Go Map! (but it’s only for iOS).

I’m curious, and I’m surprised why I haven’t tried it. Can Vespucci edits *.osc files? Wrong POI locations in OsmAnd is a common enough error,and I’m wondering whether Vespucci can handle the *.osc files generated by OsmAnd.

Good job @feyeandal!

That’s great! I’ve tried this app in the past, but found the user experience with OsmAnd better (including its plethora of features). Check it out from your favorite app store.

And, welcome to OpenStreetMap! :)

@mmd. Definitely convenient. ;) Thanks!

Yep! I hope we can run a junior mapping activity over the summer. :)

Thank you, Clifford. I’ll make sure to remember that.

I don’t have an iOS device myself but the reason we also recommend OsmAnd, is because it shares many of the features of the Android version. I think their goal is to eventually have both platforms share the same features.

I’ll definitely have to ask someone to try this out. Thanks!

Congratulations, Maning! Cheers, and we look forward to anther decade of mapping.

Looking forward to reading the full work, soon. :)

Awesome job, TagaSanPedro!

That’s great news! We hope we could test them out soon. Let me try to get some local organizations to try this out in the Philippines.

Well, this isn’t straight-forward, but it’s no secret either. If you search using Google, search as follows, with the special “site:” option

Millennium Oakwood site:OpenStreetMap.org

which returns the same object you mentioned earlier.

My other favorite search engine, Duck Duck Go offers the special bang, “!osm” to search specifically using OSM,

Millennium Oakwood !osm

So, there exists several ways to find objects in OSM databases via web search. My personal style is to add OSM a search engine in my browser so I can search direct from the address bar.
