pyosmium 4.0.0 released

Maybe it is related to 4.0.0 being not listed and 4.0.1 being listed at https://docs.osmcode.org/pyosmium/ ?

user manual link in https://github.com/osmcode/pyosmium/releases/tag/v4.0.0 is also refusing to work

https://docs.osmcode.org/pyosmium/v4.0.0/ and https://docs.osmcode.org/pyosmium/v4.0.0/cookbooks/ linked in this post are 404ing

iterative syntax looks nice! But handler functions and preprocessing are still needed if you are interested in location of objects, right?

Early feedback welcomed: open source tool for Spatial Data Matching with OpenStreetMap Schema

BTW, I see that my comment is the first one - have you submitted this to OSM Weekly/created OSM forums thread/maybe posted on imports mailing list?

Not sure whether I managed to miss it in all such places or have you not posted about this tool there.

Early feedback welcomed: open source tool for Spatial Data Matching with OpenStreetMap Schema

Hello! I got linked here as I started to build a sort-of similar tool (link in https://codeberg.org/matkoniecz/improving_openstreetmap_using_alltheplaces_dataset/issues/8 ).

I definitely prefer to not invent the wheel so I went here to review what exists already and hopefully use this tool or contribute to it.

Quick feedback, from opening website:

  • I failed link to source code or project website at https://sdm.etica.ai/v/0.5/ and given AGPL license I expected it next to mention of AGPL
  • Help text on pressing “help” is not in English while other page elements are in English
  • “itens” should be “items” right? Unless it is some specialized term?
  • I see some other typos/nonenglish - is it useful to report them? Where I can just submit patch to fix this?

Good luck with your project :)

Or rather, projects, including non-osm ones. And yes, it is likely better to ditch OSM and focus on school than opposite.

Thoughts on Classification and Tagging

Maybe you got answers already but in case…

Why does Regina have so many pedways over streets cars drive under, and none of them are marked with a maximum height sign?

Are these high enough to fit a truck below it? Often there is max size for regular vehicle and if such vehicle would fit then height limit is unsigned…

Is a concrete block coloured red a form of tactile paving, even if it has no different texture to it from any other block?

no, but it may serve similar purpose and help nearly-blind people

DWG member fizzie has deleted a massive amount of legal and public data from the map

Also, I want to express appreciating to DWG for cleaning up this undiscussed import, apparently imported from data source on incompatible license.

DWG member fizzie has deleted a massive amount of legal and public data from the map

it is against OSM policy to delete a massive amount of legal data with out proper formalities.

which one?

DWG member fizzie has deleted a massive amount of legal and public data from the map

note that not all legal and public data should be uploaded into OSM

also, as explained at https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/apparent-use-of-unauthorised-source-for-beach-names-in-australia/108721 it was NOT legal to mass-upload this data to OSM, at least we have no indicator that it was legal

there was never a formal proposal about the removal of this information

See osm.wiki/Import/Guidelines

It is inverse, you need a clear proposal to import data

Cygnus Field Report

Is Cygnus dead nowadays? I am asking as it was featured at osm.wiki/Conflation and I just removed it in osm.wiki/w/index.php?title=Conflation&diff=2717366&oldid=2597408

In case that it is available somewhere, please let me know so I can repair link rather than removing link to auctioned domain

Improving landuse=residential in and around Kumasi #0001

Thanks for cleanup! landuse glued to roads is quite annoying.

In such case I would also consider mass deleting such dubious data - “Replace Geometry” is nice, but spending extra hours to fix low quality data may be not worth it. Especially when cleaning up after paid mappers who made low quality edits.

Working with the class:bicycle tag

First time writing a diary, I have no idea how this is supposed to work

Congrats, it worked well!

Working with the class:bicycle tag

The tag is mostly subjective

It is actually worse. People will disagree heavily in many cases and different cyclists have a better criteria. It is far better to tag objective info rather than trying to cram all criteria into single poorly defined tag.

Any use of class:bicycle tag should think hard “is it possible to express it properly”.

I'm in the top 150!

And osm.org/note/4198859 is just a pointless spam. Please stop.

Restructure wiki page key:name?

A random sample in my neighbourhood showed an error rate of 8.4% (N=1092).

Do you have somewhere list of them? Or able at least to share general location where you checked?

(I am pretty sure that in my area situation is much better)

StreetComplete for iOS

Great!

#OSMPHarin2024 - mappy is a fun activity!🇵🇭 🗺️ 💫

Glad that you had fun! I wish you more mappy successes

The baseless "Whats on the Ground" vs the factual "Actual Nature of the Road"

Please, read osm.wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct

the DWG rules placed on my edits have already ruined the map

@slice0 - if you care about some special aspect of road such as its official classification or quality class that does not match its importance/role in highway=* - then dedicated tag for that value is an option

See for example osm.wiki/Key:highway:class:pl

But that would require discussing it with others and ceasing insults and attempts to redefine tags.
