OSM Potlatch2 bug or Chrome?

seav, yeah. did that yesterday indeed corrected the problem. and was able to update batangas city already. thanks

OSM Browser Woes

alexz, it's Adobe flash causing the problem with Firefox, I tested it, see here:

ian, use google chrome for now to avoid crashes :P

Preparing to get "Lost" in Paranaque

sdoerr,

it's not it still. i've added the POI. the map of my friend indicated don lauro avenue but it's on conglomerate per OSM. she's been there so probably correct or a stretch is really don lauro avenue

the POI is here osm.org/go/4zhB469Ff--
i will update my map tomorrow and use to route but i don't think there'll be routing problems too as i've been to that area before but not to the church

thanks for the help, i didn't expect someone to reply to this post :P

Preparing to get "Lost" in Paranaque

sdoerr, it's a different church in las pinas yet same name...thanks anyway...there's always a "call a friend" option :P

Paete Map: OSM vs RG

with a high certainty, yes. I remember it as a snapshot of the earlier version of OSM paete map. Gimena St, an alley where my i grew up doesn't have a street sign and it's also on RG, google released hi-res satt image a few months ago and their online map is different (yet full of errors)...but then again the benefit of the doubt :(

West Avenue, QC

seav, yes, lots of car repair shops there. i pass by the segment from del monte up to quezon avenue daily but as you know I'm always in a hurry :P

roosevelt too has shops, alternatives to banawe with lots of hooligans

how i wish gas would go back to P40/liter so i can cruise or idle more :P

missing U-turn slots on EDSA near SM and Trinoma

tough luck. tried to find out who but can't find it. tried to add again two of four but got error in saving changeset data...the u-turn slot in front of sm annex is off by about 50 meters too, it's been moved to a new location

Sampaloc and Quiapo, Manila

maning, the former routing engineer in me came alive with OSM :P want to perfect routing so the next time wifey goes astray, she can rely on OSM to save her day...
so far, QC and Makati's doing well, will again check Manila.

Garmin Routing Algorithm?

vclw, garmin nuvi 1300 here for car and fuel savings config. i do use mapsource but noticed the route calculations different from the nuvi even if they're both from garmin :(

Garmin Routing Algorithm?

thanks for all your replies, i will look closely at this to get a better picture of the algorithm where road class, distance, max speed, lanes, and other factors come into play to compute the "best" route.

as much as i want to make it tweakable, garmin has its proprietary algorithm that i can't tweak (like what I used to do to my telco/ISP Internet routing table to optimize)

my example: MacArthur Highway is a trunk linked to EDSA, another trunk but it's a low way.

SCTEX and NLEX are both tollways connected by a link road (not sure of the croad class) to MacArthur and EDSA and much faster. (@maning, after turning to SCTEX the routing's perfect from there)

I just wish there's a software simulator for tests like this though :P

my first turn restriction

i didn't fully understand your relations but i checked again using the show/hide and indeed of them is incorrect. already corrected and I hope it's really corrected...thanks for the help

my first turn restriction

i added a new restriction to the other corner, you may be referring to that one. can you please check? thanks

my first turn restriction

zartbitter, i only added one restriction, westbound buendia to tordesillas. the other there is already existing when I "arrived" there. anyway, will have it corrected

intentionally got "lost" from QC to Makati

alexz, so it's with potlatch2...i will explore it later. I can see the turn restrictions on potlatch but can't create/edit at least it's now with potlatch 2...lazy me hehe

intentionally got "lost" from QC to Makati

hmmm...i will try it one of these days particularly the buendia/tordesillas corner to check then i'll let you know. i will also learn JOSM, but my lazy side's preventing me. it's also been a while since i booted Matte to linux (Matte: my dual-boot notebook)

QC to East Floodway, Cainta routing's perfect

you're right. only the main access road is there. I will add the road network later plus the clubhouse, pool, parking and clusters

lostin ortigas

seav, pearl drive is a one way street but not tagged correctly. just remembered it because of your comment :P

Osmena and Makati-Mandaluyong Bridge routing error

was able to test this today and there's a slight error still for mabini is under makati-manda bridge and not directly linked to it. will check tomorrow

Osmena and Makati-Mandaluyong Bridge routing error

alexz, i'm also using garmin, a nuvi 1300 though I still don't know the routing algorithm garmin is using to calculate the route. suspect it's mostly weighed on the distance and the highway type. tags for max_speed and number of lanes may also come to play. I only experiment with routing in makati to check and correct if i can but i don't really need it as i can navigate around the city with ease. not so with wifey who i cautioned not to trust the GPS completely :(

routing errors in makati

@zartbitter, yes, I used to post errors but forgot the link, will do later

@maning, i checked OSM before i posted it and there really is a bollard with no access for cars and permissive for motorcyles. I was perplexed why but I know it's not the correct route.
