因為選舉緣故有人來創治線頂地圖,共𪜶想欲罵的候選人的問題別莊、舊厝抑是土地畫到地圖頂懸,線頂地圖攏受著影響,其中這改竟然有人想著OpenStreetMap矣。

頭起先來講逐家攏知,全臺迵知的Google地圖。Google地圖予人創甲留無全屍,基本上是一陣人去大量改,真簡單予人改好顯示到地圖頂懸,你會當看著各種歹聽的名號出現矣。賴清德、馬文君、謝衣鳳、柯文哲的爭議所在予人標示。

OpenStreetMap欲申請口座是真簡單,凊彩畫加添假的資料嘛是會用得,毋過有社群佇咧守護地圖的資料,真緊予恢復轉來矣。社群有討論欲按怎來編輯,凡勢有照on the ground原則編輯就會使矣。台灣的社群OpenStreetMap Taiwan teh 守護圖資,莫予人烏白來是做甲足讚的!

Community-Driven Tech Development in Open Source

Two persons engaging in a discussion "open source" Sometime ago in 2019, out of curiosity I asked a friend who was a community engagement person to explain her job to me. What exactly is the role of a “community engagement person?”. Could it be just another title for a social media manager, or content creator?

Well, my friend loved her job and her explanation was plenty, but let me break it down and explain the role of community engagement.

I have come to the conclusion that some job titles can be used interchangeably, like Software Developer and Software Engineer. Whichever title you choose to have on your profile, the responsibility is the same. I feel, most companies use either for what suits their brand archetype.

The Municipality of Crowsnest Pass is bounded on the west by the BC/AB boarder and on the east by the municipal district of Pincher Creek.

Alberta Highway 3 passes through this municipality.

My edits in Changeset: 145865015 are as follows.

Change highway=trunk to highway=primary

From the Canada Tagging Guidelines for Primary Roads primary roads are typically 2-lane, undivided, provincial highways. This description is accurate for Highway 3 through the Crowsnest Pass.

See also the Alberta Highway Classification Guidelines

highway=trunk, however, is suggested for “the national highway system”.

Contrary to my change, the National Highway System page on Wikipedia lists Highway 3 as a core road in the national highway system. This may need reversion.

Change to name=20 Avenue and nat_name:en=Crowsnest Highway

Within the Municipality of the Crowsnest Pass, Highway 3 is labelled on street signs as 20 Avenue. This is similar to how Highway 1 is also 16 Avenue through the City of Calgary.

The Canada Tagging Guidelines for Named Major Highways explains that when a named highway also has a street name, tag:name should be used for the street name and tag:nat_name should be used for the highway name.

Changes to maxspeed

I have personally surveyed the speed zone changes.

The Municipality of Crowsnest Pass also posted a map of speed zone changes that took place in 2019

Друзья, всех с наступившим новым годом!

Пусть в новом году будет отрисовано то, что раньше даже не приходило в голову. Как говорится, то, что не видел глаз и не слышало ухо, во всяком случае глаз и ухо осм-сообщества.

А я между тем поборол tilemill и всё-таки сделал онлайн-карту ландшафтов (покрытий, landcovers).

Смотреть можно тут:

http://osm2.zkir.ru/landcovers/

картинка для привлечения внимания, было-стало

Показываются ландшафты (natural+landuse), населенные пункты и, по приколу, горные вершины. Отображаются зумы с нулевого по восьмой. Обновление по требованию.

В ближайших планах:

  • Наладить автоматические обновления. Похоже, это проблема, потому что обновление через osm2pgsl пока еще ни разу успешно не завершилось.
  • Вспомнить ради чего я всё это затеял. Кажется, я собирался сделать картостиль, имитирующий фотореалистичный спутниковый снимок.
  • Пофиксить отображение городов, чтобы показывались пунсоны, как в стандартном стиле.

В предыдущий раз мы говорили о покрытиях и генерализации тут:

I’ve created a changeset which fixes 117 links to Wikipedia disambiguation pages on segments of I-15 in Utah as identified by https://matkoniecz.github.io/OSM-wikipedia-tag-validator-reports/Utah,%20USA.html

In a nutshell, this change updates the wikipedia tag value, changing it from a disambiguation page to a specific article:

Old Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veterans_Memorial_Highway

New Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:Interstate%2015%20in%20Utah

This work is part of a larger MapRoulette challenge, https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/40609, created by osm.org/user/Mateusz%20Konieczny to address problems with Wikipedia links in OSM data.

Rather than completing 117 separate MapRoulette tasks I downloaded JSOM data using the following Overpass API query and performed a bulk edit.

[out:xml][timeout:90][bbox:{{bbox}}]; ( way["wikipedia"="en:Veterans Memorial Highway"]; ); (._;>;); out meta;

As this is my first large-scale edit I have tagged the change as needing a review –I will also ping matkoniecz so that the validator report summary page can be updated.

Welcome to the summary of work done in the fourth year of Divide and map. Now. – the damn project that helps mappers by dividing a big area into smaller squares that people can map together.

Four years ago, the damn project was developed to constructively criticize the HOT Tasking Manager. (HOT stands for the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team.) I see that the limitations of the HOT Tasking Manager persist, that it is not getting better, and that the developers of the HOT Tasking Manager can still benefit from constructive criticism.

In this diary, I will first recap the functionality and scope of the damn project. Then I will write about the work in 2023 and the work for 2024.

Functionality and scope

To understand the damn project, let us break it down into four main components, each of which has its own repository: the server, the web clients, the JOSM damn plugin, and the deployment guide. The deployment (for sysadmins) brings up the damn project. The damn server (for backend developers) contains the core service – JSON API to the PostGIS database. The JOSM damn plugin connects to the damn server so that mappers do not have to open the web browser to contribute to OpenStreetMap when using the damn project. Finally, the web clients repository (for frontend developers) contains the code base for multiple web clients.

The features available to mappers are divided into the JOSM damn plugin and the web clients, as the damn project serves multiple groups of mappers and recognizes these groups.

J’ai ajouté la Rue des Pruniers qui part de Cap-Aux-Corbeaux Nord, c’est un ancien chemin privé devenu chemin public dans les dernières années. Et là où habite mon beau-frère qui a des problèmes avec les livreurs d’Amazon. Google Maps avait le même problème.

Aussi modifié le nom du ruisseau qui croise cette rue de Ruisseau du Bois-Blanc à Ruisseau Chez Lucien, d’après les cartes de la MRC.
