Hallo, I hope you accept a reply in English

1) Remove the tag multipolygon = inner on the inner “rectangle” 2) remove the tags multipolygon and type from the outer “rectangle” 3) select both “rectangles” (use the shift key) 4) tools -> Create Multipolygon this creates the multipolygon relation with 2 members. They have the roles ‘inner’ and ‘outer’

that’s all. I hope this helps

• You can use any edit text editor you want.
• You have to make a wiki page under http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Presets, as I did for BENELUX: http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Presets/BENELUX
• The default preset explains the syntax: http://josm.openstreetmap.de/browser/trunk/data/defaultpresets.xml
• Another example of a preset is the Historial Objects by Lutz http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Presets/Historical_Objects
• Do not forget to include the {{{ #!preset }}} wrapper around the xml

Hope this helps you a bit

p.s. I can read German more or less, but will not attempt to write it.

Did you press “Run” ? I used “man_made=surveillence” in the query, maybe you tag the camera’s in an other way ?

You could use overpass turbo for this, e.g. http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1MH

Did you try JOSM + OpenData plugin ? The OpenData plugin can read ESRI shapefiles. See osm.wiki/JOSM/Plugins/OpenData

Hallo,

Je kan je inschrijven via https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-be

We hebben het recentelijk ook nog over de dubbele straatnamen gehad. Je kan de link bovenaan die pagina gebruiken om in het archief te duiken.

Het komt erop neer dat de straat name = naamA - naamB krijgt en ook name:left en name:right krijgt. Niet alle tools kunnen daar mee over weg, maar daar leven we dan maar mee.

nog veel plezier met het mappen.

Hallo Meannder,

ik zou ook de afzonderlijke highway=cycleway verwijderen. Maar misschien eerst even de auteur van die extra paden contacteren?

Dit is ook weer zo’n vraag waar je sneller reactie gaat op krijgen als je ze op de mailing list gooit. Ik weet niet hoeveel Belgen (of Vlamingen) de blogs hier volgen.

met vriendelijke groeten

Interesting project, thanks for sharing

Do you know http://geschichtskarten.openstreetmap.de/historische_objekte/ It should show Stolpersteine as well as many other historic items

But please at least document the tag on the wiki, if you do not want to go through the formal procedure of proposal and voting. You could also discuss this on the tagging mailing list, this is the preferred place to talk about new tagging keys.

Ik denk dat je best eens in contact treedt met de Nederlandse community. Zij zijn bezig om die BAG informatie beschikbaar te maken voor eenvoudig gebruik in bv. JOSM.

Je kan hen contacteren via het forum of de mailing list.

een Zuiderbuur.

That seems to offer the same capabilities, thanks a lot for the link.

We really needed the screen sharing, voice alone is not enough. If google stops this service, we’ll have to find another provider. But this problem is true for every provider, even ones you have to pay for. There is no way you can tell that what you are using today, will exist next month.

Although Mumble is open source, nobody knows whether it is still supported when the next OS version arrives and breaks Mumble.

And nothing beats getting together in person. Belgium is a small country, with a rather small community, so we still have to travel quite a few kilometers (not comparable to US of course) to get together. This is not always possible.

As for searching, I recommend http://www.openlinkmap.org/ It allows you to search for items in the visible area, show all the found items with numbers on the map. Gives you distances to the nearest busstop, railway station, parking, opening hours; you can see wikipedia links, pictures, links to websites, email address and much more

I have no idea of the capacity of the hardware behind the map, so it will be slower than Google, but I assume you can donate hardware :-)

Sorry, but I’ve always heard that it is a big no-no to have areas tagged with landuse=* share nodes with highway=* One of the reasons is that highways are represented as lines and not as areas, although they have a width.

p.s. sorry for the English reply, I can more or less read German, but not write it.

I use a similar approach, however I wrote a python script that transforms the gpx file with the waypoints immediately into an osm file. During this translation I also expand the short notation into the proper OSM tags (e.g. BK –> amenity=bench, L20+-+28 –> 5 nodes with building=house;addr:housenumber=20 + building=house;addr:housenumber=22 … up to 28 etc.

I add the extra information that you add in OpenOffice, immediately in JOSM.

You can find my script at http://funky-osm-foto.blogspot.be/2013/03/weekend-projectje.html The explanation is in Dutch, but it’s about the script.

Feel free to adapt if you find this useful.

Thanks for the compliment on the work in Lier. It sure is a nice town. The work that I did makes it tempting for me to visit it again after all those years. However, I usually try to find walks that our dogs like as well. A visit to a town is not high on their list of fun things, especially not with the current temperatures :-)

Your description of the KML file got me thinking. Maybe I should try to write a python script that keeps even a bit more information from wikipedia. I might be able to directly create an OSM file with the address information, links to the heritage website, a description and so on. I’ll give it a try later on

As for the presets, the BENELUX one is mainly targeted to Flemish mappers. It contains more items than only heritage. e.g. fixed operators for mailboxes. It’s also completely translated in Dutch.

I can use the idea from the heritage preset to include a dropdown for the type of building. The heritage preset is more focussed on the heritage “rules” and therefore includes more data such as a start date of the protection. This information is not in wikipedia. I don’t really dare to use more information from the OnroerendErfgoed website. My preset has more fields for the different types of names (name, old_name, addr:housename, alt_name)

It would be better to have 1 big preset, but a dedicated one per country has the benefit that one can set some default values for operators and other country specific data (maxspeed rules with trafiic zones= be:rural e.g)

I knew about the No Image GPX link, as I did all the translation work to Dutch and English :-). I used such a GPX-file for a walk near Bornem. Still have to upload the images though.

With the OpenData plugin of JOSM, one can directly import kml files. So there is no need to convert them first with another tool

Hi Poppei82,

thanks a lot for both hints. I didn’t know about the kml export link. I’ll have a go at it.

I wrote some presets for JOSM myself (BENELUX) that has dedicated settings for the Flemish information. It tweaked o.a. for monuments that are listed by Onroerend Erfgoed. The is the Flemish institute responsible for listing the historic buildings.

Nevertheless, I’ll have a look at the preset that you mention. Maybe I can use some ideas to improve my own preset a bit.

Regarding the partial/full link to commons wikimedia. It’s just easier to copy the full link than part of it :-)
