Forgotten Gems in Geospatial Indexing

Now I see: Mindblowing! Thanks, Daniel, for sharing this - even with code. I’ll forward this to some channels.

Forgotten Gems in Geospatial Indexing

Thanks for the nice blog post.

But Z curve is not forgotten :) see e.g. this discussion about GeoParquet partitioning

Regarding GeoParquet partitioning: I’m interested in evaluating the best spatial partitioning scheme for generating GeoParquet files in order to get the best performance when reading them within a bbox. => Which algorithm do you recommend? Z curve? My favourite is KD/KDB Tree. But there are also Quad Tree, Hilbert Curve, etc.

By the way, do you know this nice post?

Overpass et les cours d'eau

Pour info : je suppose que tu connais WaterWayMap https://waterwaymap.org/#map=2/0/0 et « Routage avec des lignes à travers des polygones » https://blog.rustprooflabs.com/2022/10/pgrouting-lines-through-polygons .

A New File Format for OSM Data

I’ll also have a look at GeoParquet and GeoDesk when I find the time. They might contain additional ideas I overlooked.

Very good. I would definitely take a look at GeoParquet 1.1 https://geoparquet.org/ - and if necessary contribute to it.

I respect in-house developments like Oma, but the chances of a new format like GeoParquet catching on are much greater.

Take a look at the long list of GeoParquet (and Parquet) software. And see also, for example, these interesting discussions on the subject here: https://github.com/opengeospatial/geoparquet/discussions/251 .

A New File Format for OSM Data

Dear @kumakyoo. Interesting project. I haven’t yet understood all your requirements. But have you already looked at GeoParquet?

OSM Progress timelapse videos with QGIS and Ohsome API

And regarding the time consuming styling: Soon the QGIS plugin “AIAMAS - AI-Assisted Map Styler” will also support line and area symbology. This plugin allows quick symbolization and automatically suggests fitting colors and symbols for newly loaded vector layers. Feedback welcome! https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/AIAMAS/

OSM Progress timelapse videos with QGIS and Ohsome API

Hey 2hu4u: You can share QGIS symbology using the QGIS Resource Sharing plugin https://qgis-contribution.github.io/QGIS-ResourceSharing/ .

Overpass Turbo Query

I didn’t understand all your queries, but I often recommend the following output in combination with “NWR”:

//out body; >; out skel qt;
out center;   
Microcosms Ready for Feedback

I’d be very interested in this feature implemented as part of OSM.org website.

Seem’s that it’s Microcosms was renamed to communities https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/pull/3717 .

But the project name really only is about the functionality in osm.org . So the project name will vanish one day when it is merged.

@OpenBrian : Can you give an estimate when the pull request will be ready to be merged?

New quality checks in the Osmose QA tool for links from OpenStreetMap to Wikidata

Hi Mateusz: I’ll forward your comments to Timon, the maintainer of the OSM Wikidata Quality Checker, who is now working in my institute IFS at OST.
