I have released a new JOSM for Mac OS X at http://smsm1.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/osm/JOSM/index.html

This uses the JOSM-latest.jar from 20070620.

A comment for Ulven: Föreslår att du skapar en användarsida på wikin och lägger till dig till Category: Users in Östergötland. Eller var du nu känner dig mest hemma.

A moment ago I noticed that both Nya Tanneforsvägen and Gamla Tanneforsvägen in Linköping seemed to have lost all of their tags and were therefore not rendered by Tiles@Home. I tried to fix and set new tags. But I do not know why this happened? Did someone deliberately remove the tags?

Today we did a good portion (60 miles of tracks, according to the odometer) of the suburban countryside to the south-east of Leicester. Houghton on the Hill, Great Glen, Kibworth, and Billesdon, where we discovered a fete.

Plan for tomorrow is to head round outer Leicester in a curious kind of ring, trying to get more important through-roads (Beaumont Leys Lane, Fosse Road South, and the like) to the west of the city.

I was experimenting in Potlatch last night with trying to add an outline of Castletown, Isle of Man and all seemed to be going well. Until, that is, I downloaded that same area in JOSM so I could use some WMS mapping data for reference.

Pretty much everything that was completely enclosed within the new outline I'd just drawn in Potlatch didn't seem to exist in the data JOSM was showing me. Most of the streets (nodes, segments and ways) of Castletown had disappeared from the dataset it seemed.

Confused, I checked back to a previously saved copy of the data and got some IDs to check against the history data through the API. The ones I checked were all showing as being there. And sure enough, when I started JOSM from scratch, the data was once again there.

It was very weird, and I still don't understand why it happened... It sounds like a bug somewhere, but where, I don't know!

Ich war die letzten Wochenenden in Kelsterbach bei Frankfurt und habe dort angefangen Tracks aufzunehmen.
Alle Tracks wurden mit dem Fahrrad aufgenommen.

Well, today i started to map my hometown Kauhajoki in Western Finland.

In the light of the problems the tiles@home system is currently experiencing, I have started re-designing the server software, using PostgreSQL as a the database server, and some mod_python code.

see osm.wiki/index.php/Tiles%40home/APIs/version_4 for more information.

Werde in nächster Zeit den Inn mit Hilfe der Landsat Bilder in Tirol einzeichnen. Der Flughafen Innsbruck und der Achensee sind auch auf diese Weise entstanden.

Mapnik takes a week to update (every Wednesday) though a recent one didn't happen due to lack of disk space.

osmarender will update soon either automatically or through submitting a request through http://www.informationfreeway.org/

It would be nice if these blog posts would contain perma links on the site.

I decided to contribute, mapping terrain with which I am familiar.

I mapped out everything that was missing of Highway 7 between Ottawa and Peterborough. I also cleaned up a lot of shoreline on the canal and Dow's Lake, extended Bank St. to Wellington, and realigned a lot of streets to their proper position.

It's been over a week since I made my changes, and though they show up in Edit, they're not visible on the map.

What's the deal?

Skapade gatan som ligger pararellt mellan Storgatan och Nygatan, Linköping. Den heter "Mataregatan Druvan" och det namnet finns såvitt jag vet inte med på någon annan karta. Det är nog nästan bara lapplisorna och möjligtvis polisen som vet namnet på den gatan.

Skrev in namn på Snickaregatan och Tannerforsgatan.

Satellite imagery is really our friend. This lake has been mapped in about 2 hours with yahoo imagery while it would have taken days with a GPS !

Six days into my work on OSM. I'm beginning to get a pretty good feel for how to work Potlatch. I've found I like the simplicity of the Potlatch tool versus JOSM. However, I'm finding that Potlatch has some distinct limitations. Hopefully, I'll continue to learn as to tool continues to grow.

First upload and editing for 1.5 month or so. Nice to see some improvements here, both in web, API and JOSM.
Great!

And I even got some fellow mappers in my home town which I've been mapping alone for the past year, very nice.

Technically, I've been part of the community for almost a year. However, I never got around to learning enough to try to upload some data. My recent experiences trying to find a decent commercial mapping product led me to consider OSM again. Basically what I learned was that the leading product on the consumer market had really big problems, like out of date map information, user interface issues, and discontinued support for mobile devices. This product is also acknowledged by reviewers as the best of the bunch! Surely a dedicated open source community could do better.

I live in a vast, uncharted wasteland known as Ohio, at least as far as OSM is concerned. There are a few major roads charted (maybe half a dozen) over the entire state. It is possible that I am the first Ohio resident to contribute to the project!

My first general impression of OSM is that it is a project with a firm foundation, but a weak user experience. I've been working on it for about a week, and I'm just starting to feel comfortable with parts of the process.

I've made a few mistakes along the way. For example, I recorded a new track one day, converted it, uploaded it, and waited for it to appear. The points never showed up, even after the upload was accepted. It was a few days before I realized that I had mixed up file names in the conversion process and managed to upload a duplicate of a previous track file instead of my new one.

Nevertheless, there are a number of quirks in the system. For example, I am using Vito Navigator II on my PDA. The track files are saved as waypoints. I can convert with GPSbabel, but I had to learn through experimentation that I have to convert all waypoints to tracks or the resulting .gpx file is rejected as having 0 tracks. It took me several uploads before I figured it out.

I hadn't uploaded any tracks really since the Rails work came on-line so I thought I'd catch up this morning. It was great to see the import processing working properly (upload and import within the half hour as it should be) and also the amazing speed of point download in JOSM, a big improvement from pre rails where the feed of each page of 5000 points could take ages when downloading an area with tons of gpx data. Another indicator that the project is maturing and becoming more stable by the day. Great work all :-)
