Recientemente he estado creando algunos artículos para la Wikipedia en español sobre personalidades cuyos restos descansan en el Cementerio Inglés de Málaga. Dos de las personalidades más destacadas que aún no contaban con artículo propio en Wikipedia eran el cónsul británico William Mark, fundador del cementerio, y el joven irlandés Robert Boyd, cuya injusta muerte vinculó tan trágicamente la historia de Málaga, España e Irlanda.

Мой доклад на мероприятии, посвященном 20-летию OSM, доступен на ютубе, у кого он еще работает, а еще тут.

Доклад посвящен генерализации, которую мы обсуждали зимой, и открытой карте покрытий.

Вообще-то о том, что нужны доклады, я узнал меньше чем за сутки до начала, потому что мероприятие планировалось как алкогольно-развлекательное, но выяснилось что осмеры без докладов не могут.

Было еще три доклада, причем очень интересные, но ленту с их видеозаписью съела годзилла.

About a year ago I wrote about my experiences of mapping in Bonaire. It’s time for an update.

Satellite imagery

One of the challenges I had was adding data without high quality and recent imagery. Luckily, earlier this year the ‘Satellietdataportaal’ (Satellite Data Portal) made high resolution data available for Caribbean Netherlands.¹

License

First things first though: are we allowed to use the aerial photos they publish for improving OpenStreetMap? There is a long thread on the Community forums. Whether it’s allowed or not depends on the agreement the Dutch government has with the satellite data provider.² Luckily, in the topic itself it is discussed that it is allowed to use Pléiades, SuperView and TripleSat.

Geoblock

The downside? You can only use this in The Netherlands. The data is geoblocked. I’ve added a lot of new streets and buildings in Bonaire over the past few weeks, but only other people currently in The Netherlands would be able to validate that I’m mapping actual buildings. The rest of the world would need to wait for a worldwide aerial imagery provider to update their data.

Selecting the satellite data

In the Satellite Data Portal Viewer, after selecting Bonaire from the top left menu, you then need to select a part of the area for which you want to see the satellite data, then it gives you a list of options. Currently for Bonaire there are only three options (as we’re only interested in recent and high resolution satellite data). * Pleiades-NEO January 9, 2023 * Pleiades-NEO April 18, 2023 * Pleiades-NEO June 17, 2023

The January one is generally too cloudy, but the April and June ones are useful. Use the April one if you’re looking at the Western part of Bonaire (Rincon and Washingtong Slagbaai National Park) and use the June one for Kralendijk and all of the east and south.

You can simply click on ‘Select for WMTS’ which fetches you a link.³

I will finish mapping what is left from the Online Mapping Party for OSM 20th birthday. List of villages is we mapped and what is still to be mapped is here.

Villages mapped during the past 10 days:

1. Vorrozen

2. Levan

3. Pilur

Rando des Pays au Viallet

Em maio de 2024, o Rio Grande do Sul enfrentou uma enchente histórica. No interior, rios varreram construções e estradas às suas margens em cidades pequenas, e muitas pontes desabaram, criando caos e desafios logísticos na circulação intermunicipal. No começo achei que as pontes principais seriam reparadas logo e que as das rotas menos críticas continuariam danificadas por mais tempo, por isso não valeria a pena mudar o mapa, preferimos mapear informações mais permanentes. Mas logo o evento tomou proporções sem precedentes. O lago Guaíba superou o récorde de 1941, submergindo centenas de ruas na região metropolitana e gerando centenas de milhares de desalojados. Nesse período, retomei o trabalho remoto, cuidei de um familiar doente, ajudei um parente a sair do caos da Cidade Baixa quando foi anunciado que iria inundar, ficamos sem água em casa por uma semana (ainda bem que pude recorrer à doação de água potável das Fontes de Belém). Foi então anunciado que as águas demorariam semanas para baixar. Notando a fragmentação e imprecisão das informações oficiais, a instabilidade de serviços essenciais, as falhas em mapas comerciais em lidar com a situação, e preocupado que poderia precisar saber dos detalhes no caso de uma emergência, conversei com a comunidade local pra ver se alguém iria se opor e então decidi começar a mapear a nova realidade num lugar só: no OSM. Com o tempo, a Lagoa dos Patos também subiu, inundando as cidades ao seu redor. As últimas ruas afetadas em áreas urbanas só secaram no final de julho, e várias cidades da serra ainda tentam se recuperar da destruição, com pontes destruídas, pontes provisórias canceladas, balsas inoperantes, estradas obstruídas por deslizamentos, entre outras situações.

Im Lebacher Stadtteil Thalexweiler und auf seinem Bann sind 19 Wegekreuze erhalten geblieben (http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1Pkr), von denen 2 aus dem 18. Jahrhundert Aufnahme in der Denkmalliste gefunden haben. Diese werden seit 30 Jahren vom Verein für Heimatgeschichte Thalexweiler e. V. gepflegt und von dem pensionierten Malermeister Walter Lesch restauriert. Unsere Wegekreuz-Tour wurde jetzt bei der Kartierung dieser Kleinstdenkmäler in OSM überarbeitet, siehe unter http://www.besse.de/buecher/2024_Thalexweiler_Wegekreuz-Tour.pdf

Das Foto zeigt eine kleine Auswahl an Wegekreuzen aus Thalexweiler:

Reloj de sol del año 2015 en el instituto de educación secundaria Salvador Rueda, Polígono Carretera de Cártama. El reloj es fruto de un proyecto de María del Carmen Medialdea, realizado por las ceramistas Patricia Alba y David Márquez de la Escuela de Arte San Telmo. Fuente: trabajo propio (CC BY-SA 4.0) disponible en Wikimedia Commons.

He añadido la ubicación de los relojes de sol de Málaga a OpenStreetMap. Intentaré tomar al menos una fotografía de cada uno de ellos para documentarlos en Wikimedia Commons. La ubicación de los relojes de sol se puede conocer a través de una sencilla consulta a Overpass.

También he creado una propuesta ciudadana dirigida al Ayuntamiento de Málaga para recuperar el reloj de sol del parque de Huelin. Actualmente solo se conserva su soporte, una antigua muela de molino que ya casi nadie recuerda que fue parte de un reloj de sol.

It’s been over two weeks since the last progress report, and it’s time to update on the current status.

Project Progress

The core modules of the project have now been largely finalized, allowing us to enter the latter stage of development. The upcoming work will mainly involve adding new features within the existing framework.

Render

Firstly, the rendering part has been set up, though there are still some details that need polishment, such as styles and elements controlling the rendering. These will be adjusted in sync with the subsequent feature development to ensure that the styling aligns with the editing logic.

API call and XML obj

I’ve developed an OSM API module that wraps some of OSM’s interfaces using Promises and parses the returned XML into a JavaScript object for easier manipulation within the program.

Editor’s status management

Following that is the editing module, which primarily includes the operation logic and global data management.

For the operation logic in map editing, I’ve introduced a state machine, which manages the current state of the editor by listening to mouse and keyboard events. The state machine, referred to as “stateMachine.js” in the code, handles state transitions and data maintenance based on the functions and state relationships provided in the state diagram. Depending on the current state, it determines which actions to trigger and the new state to transition into. The state machine provides hooks that allow other components, such as mouse events in Pixi.js, to track events. Editing operations are carried out during state transitions.

I was having a conversation with another mapper about the resolution of notes where the resolution of the note requires some local knowledge. These notes that require local knowledge may remain stale for a long period of time. You can read the full conversation here.

However, it is not uncommon that notes are resolved by people that are mainly interested in resolving notes. Anecdotally, based on the fact that I put in a lot of notes, there seems to be just a select few people that are going around resolving notes as their primary OpenStreetMap contribution, or at least a major part of it. I have all the respect in the world for these people. And to Danmer’s point, they don’t have enough help to get all their notes resolved, so leaving them unresolved, because notes only have two resolution options—they’re either open or they’re closed—can be challenging.

If the primary note resolution engine is people that most likely have no local knowledge, it is counterproductive to rely on that corps of people to address these notes that require local knowledge.

I think that we could probably classify notes into three categories:

1. Those that anyone can resolve with just aerial photography and potentially some street-level photography.
2. Notes that require some information that is not available with strictly what is presented to a remote editor, such as local knowledge, or something in the person who wrote the note’s mind.
3. Spam.
