OpenStreetMap
Well I am not going to wait for you guys any longer :
here is the debian package
http://osm.komzpa.net/~mdupont/osm/pool/main/w/webkitimageqt/
the line "deb http://osm.komzpa.net/~mdupont/osm/ gjergi-osm main" you
add to your /etc/apt/source.list
apt-get install webkitimageqt
should work.

What is SExtractor?
SExtractor (Source-Extractor) is a program that builds a catalogue of objects from an astronomical image. It is particularly oriented towards reduction of large scale galaxy-survey data, but it also performs well on moderately crowded star fields.

nice...
Here is what I have learned :
1. Forestwalker produces ways that intersect. Some of them could be just one step apart, but it creates lines.
2. It creates alot of nodes that all point to the same beginning.
3. it creates endless loops at the end of the way.
Solutions :
1. track all points in a hash (lat/long) dont allow duplicates.
2. dont allow duplicate points in the ways.
Also what I have learned, we need to process the satallite photos. Can use some imagemagick or gimp scripts.
Ideally the script would be able to close areas off. create smaller areas out of big ones.
the intersections could be closed off as they are.
The rivers could be found with processing of the image. Larger features can be found with processing.
One big problem is the scanning for features, I would like to be able to scan for features without specifing points.
Ideally the entire thing can run as a python plugin in gimp.
I think that gimp would be great for osm, the data could be paths, the landsat could be image layers.
I am trying this out :
mogrify -contrast-stretch 0%x30% landsat_4000_2000_xy_82000_168000.png
display landsat_4000_2000_xy_82000_168000.png
it will hack the landsat after it is downloaded, increases the contrast.
interesting.
merge many osm filesinto one.
concat them and then merge.
this will also give the ids new ids.
UPDATE: MOVED CODE TO :
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kosova/%2Bjunk/openstreetmapkosova/annotate/head%3A/mergemultiple.pl
python is nice. but perl can be parsed easier.
you will have a hard time extracing python scripts from the journal
you need to wget the files.
this scriptlet removes duplicate nodes from the forest walker.
update: moved to launchpad

I have a hacked version of lakewalker.py for osm 0.6
it does forests.
source :

patch :
http://pastebin.ca/1532241
Parameters :
python ./lakewalker.py --lat 42.4052 --lon 20.4782 --threshold 80 -o forest.osm
I used layer 1 of landsat (green)
"" 2 0.52-0.60 µm Green ""
ref : http://landsat.gsfc.nasa.gov/education/compositor/index.html
you can see the forest here :

Hello,
Someone told me that some people in Macedonia where discussing some "hacker" who was changing names of towns in Macedonia.
If there are any changes outside of kosovo, please revert them. I did work on the border to macedonia and there might have been some changes, please point them out to me.
You can find me here, I am here all the time, and I am a nice guy.
Also you are all invited to come to Prishtina on August 29th/30th,
we are having a conferences.
Also, my name referse to hacking code,not passwords. I have perl scripts, am just another perl hacker. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_another_Perl_hacker
Thanks

I found a nice map of Prizren with archeological sites.
even with gps coords, but I cannot seem to decypher them.
please help :
example:
X=4673762, Y=7478858, Z=426 m
Link: http://www.chwb.org/kosovo/english/Publications/2_2006_Archeology.pdf
More details in comments
It is important to know where to look up places and streetnames.
I have found more strange directories with bits of information:
I have created a new script that will scrape out the street names from the points in the KPA data.
It also updates the existing data from OSM, to avoid more merge.
Chilly asked me to please not make huge posts, so the rest of the details will be in the comments if you are interested.

we need some new tags :

please help convert these to lat/long

here is a broken webpage from the government of kosovo that is supposed to have property information.
The problem is that it is horrible, nothing works.
Here is the list of properties for rent in one area:
http://www.kpaonline.org/ReadyForRentMun/ReadyForRentMun.aspx?mun=Dakovica
Here is the list of properties for in adminstration
http://www.kpaonline.org/AdminMun.asp?mun=Dakovica
you need to search with the serbian names in google, not on the site, cause it does not work.
Search String :Gjakovë/Djakovica site:kpaonline.org
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&hs=tJ2&q=Gjakov%C3%AB%2FDjakovica+site%3Akpaonline.org&
you can then get the data like this :
wget -r -l4 -D www.kpaonline.org http://www.kpaonline.org/AdminMun.asp?mun=Dakovica
update: x and y were swapped.
splitter calls launcher for each tile
Update, moved out to :

here are my scripts for merging :
I have gotten a list of old streetnames off some ancient webpages.
http://wiki.flossk.org/index.php/Kosova/Prizren#Streets_in_Prizren
Now , i want to pagerank them so I can decide on the most important ones,
here is the code, at least the start. Still have to make a report on that.
UPDATED SCRIPT :
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kosova/%2Bjunk/openstreetmapkosova/annotate/head%3A/PageRank.pl
here is my monster dataset :
osm.org/browse/changeset/2064078
the names merging, I put name:old for the names I replaced
if there was a name:sq that was different
for example
name = Kovragë
name:old = Krasniqaj
osm.org/browse/node/448740914
now for the deletes!
