UMP Gdynia, Redłowo and Kolibki woods

Posted by TomDalek on 1 October 2008 in English.

I've imported the 'UMP-Gdansk--GDYNIA.ulice.osm' file, putting every effort not to loose anything that had a .gpx trace beneath itself. The few (very few) streets that didn't have one, I've decided to delete. I'm sorry guys, I didn't like doing it, but I felt that the streets without the .gpx don't have any more value, then those from UMP, and it sped up the process big time.

Added 'Rezerwat Kępa Redłowska' wood, and the wood near Kolibki.

Smoothed out the coastline between Molo in Sopot and port in Gdynia.

First Diary entry =D

Posted by Rhubarb on 1 October 2008 in English.

Hello fellow open street mappers and non-mappers alike!

Last week I added some roads around Lower Plenty (Victoria, Australia):
osm.org/?mlat=-37.730216&mlon=145.120408&zoom=15
Over the last week I added many street names and a few roads around Bradbury (NSW, Australia), as well as a park as can be seen here:
osm.org/?mlat=-34.074091&mlon=150.811216&zoom=17
and here:
osm.org/?lat=-34.02845&lon=150.73577&zoom=16
which is in Harrington Park (NSW, Australia)

I also fixed up a few ways that seem to be the source for the 4 big white polygons appearing in various places around the coast of Australia as rendered in Mapnik.
- Hopefully with some luck the small fixes I made will be reflected in a render sometime soon.

Queichtal Radweg (26.09.2008)

Posted by lefty1963 on 1 October 2008 in German (Deutsch). Last updated on 22 July 2009.

War auf dem Queichtal Radweg unterwegs und habe die Strecke von Birkweiler bis Ende Annweiler aufgezeichnet und heute eingegeben.

Muss dann mal demnächst mit dem Auto+Rad nach Annweiler und von dort dann Richtung
Hauenstein radeln. Ansonsten geht zuviel Zeit für die Anreise flöten ;-)

House numbering patch: needs work

Posted by Circeus on 1 October 2008 in English.

So I tried out some house numbering near my home. I'm not keeping it. Not that it's ugly. It's that the patch was clearly not planned to handle more than three digits. In my area, 4+ digits civic numbers are the rule, not the exception (think about it: if a city has numbers in the 10,000, that means there are at least nine house numbers with 4+ digits for every one that has three or less...). Unfortunately, 4-digit numbers are barely. I'm not even going to test five digits.
