First edits: some low hanging Moorooka fruit

於 2008年六月12日 由 awesmEnglish發表。

I've relented and used Potlatch from work (forgive me on both accounts) to add some familiar street names around Moorooka (Brisbane, (sigh) Australia).

Seems a pretty straightforward interface, though I'm confused by my changes not showing anywhere except when I select the ways and look at the properties/tags from within Potlatch. Maybe I'm not saving them?

Have been saving tracks from the months or two, but not yet sure what use I'll be able to make of them.

Though this is addictive, I plan to try harder to use an open editing platform in future.

位置: Moorvale, Moorooka, Greater Brisbane, Queensland, 4105, Australia

Please read through osm.wiki/index.php/Beginners%27_Guide
It explains why your changes are not visible instantly. Also it links to a Potlatch guide that will (hopefully) explain how the data is instantly stored when editing.

Also see the splash screen that pops up when you first open Potlatch:

"If you click 'Start', you'll be editing the main map directly"

i.e. no need to explicitly save; and

"changes usually show up every Thursday."

Incidentally, Potlatch is plenty open - the source is at http://trac.openstreetmap.org/browser/applications/editors/potlatch/ and the Gnash guys have done a lot of work towards making the two work happily together.

Thanks for your comments. I did RTFM BTW but remembering when it counts is another matter. (I think that "live data" message actually confused me - noticed the Thursday bit eventually). In my browsers and in my head, I can only keep so many tabs open :~)

If Potlatch works in Gnash, I'm happy and surprised. The wiki warns to steer clear of it if you don't like Flash. Will also give Merkaator a bash, so to speak.

Anyway, I have a couple of errata to announce and rectify (refer next comment).

On my way home, picked up two streetnames which I messed up in today's slightly embarrassing debut. Will fix ASAP. Here are the errata:

* Nicholson Street (-27.5287,153.02895) is actually Nicholls Street
* Glenelg Street (-27.52484,153.029221) is something like Glendale Grove - need to confirm outbound tomorrow.

Sorry.
