Mapping

• Lars-Erik Wessman would like to add a functionality to their taxi driver app, that would enable taxi drivers to provide missing house numbers along with GPS locations.
• Zverik created a web frontend for his revert scripts. It allows to revert a maximum of 200 objects. No way/relation membership changes are possible though. On the plus side, it does allow a 3-way merge instead of just restoring older versions, so you won’t run into any conflicts.
• The OSM wiki proposal for “extended Kneipp water cure” tagging has been approved.

Community

• An analysis of tagging practices and patterns in urban areas in OpenStreetMap.
• Jonathan Schleuss asked on talk-us mailing list about what we should do after the Erskine Wildfires.
• Pergamino Municipality (near Buenos Aires, Argentina) contributes to OSM.
• In Switzerland, Geometa Lab have started a project observing the places in OpenStreetMap that people are looking at (by counting actual tile views). There’s also an article in the Geoawesomeness blog about it.

Imports

• Rafael Avila Coya wants to perform an import according to the rules of OSM. First he described the import details in the OSM-wiki, then he submitted his intention to the import mailing list asking for comments.
• The Madrid City Council released the data of drinking water fountains in the city. Santiago Crespo who manages the import data of Madrid in a wiki table, already created a page for these imports .
• Christian Ledermann proposed a semi-automatic import of school data from Ordnance Survey (UK).
• Maning Sambale reports about the work and the tools developed for building imports in Los Angeles.

OpenStreetMap Foundation

• Paul Norman published the meeting minutes for the board meeting of June.
• Christoph published a detailed summary of the public OSMF board meeting.
• The OSMF will from now on be holding its board meetings on the 3rd Friday of each month at 6pm London time publicly on mumble.
• Thomas Skowron tweets “I think I solved the financing problem of the OpenStreetMap Foundation”. For those who haven’t seen it, there have recently been a series of display-once-per-browser conference advertisements in that space (SOTM, SOTM-US and FOSSGIS).

Events

• The Schedule for State of the Map 2016 in Brussels (23.–25. September) is published. There was some criticism on Twitter (not merited according to us).

Humanitarian OSM

• HOT Summit (22nd of September 2016) early bird registration ends on July 9.

Maps

  • The Bismarckturm map for historical Bismarck towers used the tag network=Bismarckturm.
  • The Preußischer optical Telegraf is now complete.
• A howto for creating a 3D Map with QGIS and the QGIS2threejs plugin with little effort. Here an WebGL-3D-model from a German blog.

Software

• MAPS.ME now includes navigation for bicycle riders (beta).

Programming

• [1] Polyglot published a blog article documenting how to use the new JOSM Plugin for Public Transport, that’s being built by Darya Golovko during this year’s Google Summer of Code.
• Disastermappers Heidelberg created a tool in Python to monitor data as it is added to the OSM database. This means mappers at mapathons get feedback on their efforts during the event, which is cool and very motivating.
