Integration of public transport map into OSM-Gadget
by Tim Alder 17 Apr '12

17 Apr '12

Hello, I integrated public transport map inside OSM-gadget in Wikipedia. I decided to use "ÖPNV-Karte" because it looks in my eyes better than the public transport map you can found at osm.org. After talk with the developer of the map the additionally traffic should be no problem. Greetings Kolossos

Announcement: WIWOSM project
by Tim Alder 22 Mar '12

22 Mar '12

Hello, next week I want to publish the next big step for the cooperation between OSM and Wikipedia: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WIWOSM This project will add an vectorlayer to the OSM-map in Wikipedia. The content comes from OSM for objects with key=Wikipedia. I believe it's a big step because it will give the wikipedia user really more information to an object, it will change the working of wikipedias geocoding and can perhaps substitude on some points the work of Wikipedia's map-workshop. On the other side it will be also a lot work over the next months and years to create and maintain all the Wikipedia-Tags in OSM to connect both projects. I create this project together with User:master. As first step a plan to introduce it in german Wikipedia to get direct feedback from there. If everything is fine (and after license-change of OSM at first April) I will rollout to all other languages. Feedback and tests are very welcome. ----- BTW: What stops us? I check the new script (see project page) in IE6 and IE7 and it works fine, off course also under konqueror, safari, FF and chrome. But in IE8 it works on one computer and on the other not. (The error message is at the end of the mail.) So if you have a chance to check the script under IE it would be nice to give me a feedback. If you find the bug in line 1403 of OpenLayers.js it would be wonderful if you can help me to fix it.

osm2pgsql waterway relations WIWOSM
by Tim Alder 22 Mar '12

22 Mar '12

Hello, I got from WIWOSM a bug report, that the relation of river danube is missing. This relation has the type waterway. The reason is that we have the relation not in toolserver-db: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/89652 We have also a lot of articles like: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U2_%28Berlin_U-Bahn%29 Would be nice to support also this. My question is now if we can change the config of osm2pgsql for the next import (after license-change) to support this ? Will this effect the rendering? Do we need a second database? I would also like to know why Austria is working in WIWOSM but not for Germany. Greetings Tim

Old maps
by Lars Aronsson 20 Mar '12

20 Mar '12

I just learned that two very nice sets of old, out-of-copyright Swedish maps have been made freely available. Maybe they have already been around for a while, but I just learned this now. One set is the topographic map (popularly called Generalstabskartan) in scale 1:100,000 for southern and 1:200,000 for northern Sweden. The other is the economic map (Häradskartor) in more detail. These maps have long ago been digitized by the Swedish ordnance survey (Lantmäteriet), but they don't allow downloading and reuse. Now, however, they have been (digitized again? and) made freely available by Stockholm University library, http://kartavdelningen.sub.su.se/kartrummet/kartskapet.htm The maps are scanned in 600 dpi and are available in TIFF and JPEG. Some have also been geo referenced and have TFW and KML files for download. Can we somehow get these huge bitmap images into a tileserver? They need of course be stretched to fit the coordinates, and the borders and overlaps need to be aligned. What tools are available for that? Would WMF support and host this? Would OSM? If someone can do this for a fee, maybe the Swedish chapter can find the money. -- Lars Aronsson (lars(a)aronsson.se) Aronsson Datateknik - http://aronsson.se

How to tag? was: Announcement: WIWOSM project
by Daniel Schwen 16 Mar '12

16 Mar '12

Hey Tim, can you point us to a tutorial or manual on how to add these tags to OSM? I tried unsuccessfully to add the tags to a US county. With the editors I have (potlatch2, merkaartor) I con only download a tiny portion of the map. I can select part of (what I think is) a county line (but it has no keys indicating that it is a county line, odd!). Is it sufficient to add the Wikipedia tag to such a part of a county line? Does that tag a closed polygon, or just the small line segment? Sorry, I'm not exactly an OSM editing pro, but willing to learn to help with the tagging effort.

Leaflet and vector layers
by Josh Doe 29 Feb '12

29 Feb '12

I'm very interested in using the Maps extension, but I'd like to overlay a vector layer, e.g. to show the extents of a park, city, etc. Has anyone considered adding such support to the extension? I'm also interested in a lightweight alternative to OpenLayers, namely Leaflet [0]. Also check out the new Leaflet Vector Layers [1]. I suppose the biggest question is where should the vector data come from. For simple polygons with a few dozen points it could be passed in directly. With Vector Layers you can pull data from GeoCommons [2] and other databases easily. -Josh [0]: http://leaflet.cloudmade.com/ [1]: http://geojason.info/leaflet-vector-layers/ [2]: http://geocommons.com/

Adding links based on coordinate (point in polygon)
by Josh Doe 24 Feb '12

24 Feb '12

I'd like to add text and/or links based on the geographic location of an article. For example I'd like to link to the local political, election, and school districts that the subject of an article belongs to, based on a GIS file (specifically Shapefile). Another possibility would be to query OpenStreetMap data (via local DB, XAPI, Overpass, Nominatim, etc.) for other information like place names. Thanks, -Josh
