#OpenStreetMap is back on its feet.

Making edits with MapComplete is thus possible again as well.

We have a new version out too (but it got a bit overshadowed).

Some highlights:

- There is an insect-hotel theme (mapcomplete.org/insects.html) (thanks @RLin )
- The cyclofix, climbing, blind maps got some improvements (thanks to @midgard amongst others)
- Etymology-map will now also show parks without etymology, in order to be able to link them
- and a lot of bug fixes

Last month, there was an organised walk around Gent Zuid, aimed at adding surveillance cameras to #OpenStreetMap with @MapComplete. This map of the area shows the high number of cameras in this area alone (this is zoom level 18!), but also, that they're now mapped, allowing anyone to check where there's cameras with a reasonable degree of accuracy 🥰

#Mapycz are now launching their premium version. I'm not sure if it is in response to that. But #LocusMap, a lovely #OpenStreetMap based app focused on outdoor activities built by a small company from #Prague, now has a 6 month trial of their premium plans. Check it out! 👇

OpenStreetMap migrates to Debian 12: You may have seen this toot
announcing OpenStreetMap's migration to Debian on their infrastructure.

🚀 After 18 years on Ubuntu, we've upgraded the
@openstreetmap servers to Debian 12
(Bookworm). 🌍 openstreetmap.org is now faster
using Ruby 3.1. Onward to new mapping adventures! Thank you to the team for
the smooth transition.

#Seznam, the company behind Mapy.cz, has become a silver partner of the #OpenStreetMap Foundation.
It was about time. They've been benefiting from #OSM for years.
Now I have one last thing on my wishlist: Drop the proprietary maps for #Czechia and use OSM everywhere.

Angaben zur #Rollstuhltauglichkeit eines Ortes sind zwar in der @openstreetmap@en.osm.town eingetragen, werden aber auf der #wheelmap nicht angezeigt?

Dann könnte es sein, dass die Beschreibung nicht dem Basis-Attribut wheelchair_description sondern dem mit der Erweiterung der Sprache zugeordnet wurde, z.B. wheelchair_description:de
Wie mir der Support mitteilte, arbeitet man aber daran, auch die Sprachdefiition zu berücksichtigen.

A great screenshot by @pauldassori , showing many pieces of software working together.

It shows the iD #OpenStreetMap - editor opened in #Valdivia . A lot of orange dots are visible: these are locations for which panoramax.xyz knows an image for. This #panoramax-instance federates with panoramax.mapcomplete.org, which hosts the images made with mapcomplete.org
As Awo (osm.org/user/Awo) has added many pictures with @MapComplete , a lot of pictures are shown!

New OSM tool (to me):

sb12.github.io/OSMStreetLight

It is an easy way to see where lights are already mapped, and what still needs to be covered. I do believe MapComplete has one as well.

Street Lamps in OSM

This map shows street lamps and their settings in the data of OpenStreetMap. It shows e.g. operators, reference numbers and details about the used lights.

#openstreetmap @Edits made with MapComplete

Looking for vegan places and not a fan of proprietary datasets? #MapComplete has several themes to find (and edit) vegan places, based on #OpenStreetMap data!

The “restaurants and fast food” theme will show most places you might be interested in. If you love fries (like I do), “fries shops” will be helpful for you. And in the “gluten free” and “lactose free” themes, you can filter for vegan places too!

You can also easily edit these places with MapComplete, for example to add details or update incorrect or outdated information. Your changes will be uploaded to OpenStreetMap, which is freely reusable data!

Moving pictures from IMGUR to Panoramax: some thoughts and little facts

As you might know, Im the main developer of MapComplete. For those who dont know, MapComplete is an OSM-viewer and editor, where contributors can easily answer questions, add new points and upload pictures from a POI from a cozy website.

Hey würde jemand Lust verspüren sich beim Betrieb eines deutschen #panoramax Servers einzubringen? Streetview Photos unter CC und für OSM :blobcat_winking:

Deutscher Panoramax Server?

Wenn es um das Problem des Hostens der Bilder geht könnte man vielleicht gucken, dass man die Bilder einfach auf Wikimedia Commons speichert und Panoramax nur als Viewer für die auf den Wikimedia Servern liegenden Fotos nutzt.

We moved about 10K images already, about 2.8% of all 'image'-tags in the #OpenStreetMap-database. All those moved images are made in Flanders.

There are 19K images hosted on Imgur, of which the vast majority (probably 18K) are made with MapComplete and will be moved soon.

If your app supports the image tag, it might be neat to start supporting panoramax too. See the wiki for details. OpenAEDMap just implemented it (see github.com/openstreetmap-polsk…, might not be live ATM)

Op vrijdag 22 november (13u30) en zaterdag 23 november (11u) organiseer ik een wandeling vanuit de Krook in #Gent waar we met #OpenStreetMap en @MapComplete bewakingscamera's in kaart gaan brengen.

Na een korte uitleg gaat iedereen een eigen kant op, op zoek naar camera's.

Dit past binnen mutationfest.be/program

AWESOME new @kagihq update:
For ex: I want to look at the #OpenStreetMap wiki page for (power) sockets.

Previously you could do search like this:
socket !osmwiki
this would bring you to wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Sp…

But if I know that the chance of the right page being the first result on #Kagi is high, I can just do:
socket @osmwiki !
then I land on: wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Ke…:*

! is basically the Kagi equivalent of that google "i'm feeling lucky" feature from back in the day

When I took my car to the service I noticed, that the service wasn't in #OpenStreetMap.
Well, it is now. And whole little street got updated with fresh data...

For our (small) master dissertation about #education (but mostly because we are interested), we are doing research about using #OpenStreetMap within #secondary education (roughly 12 - 18 years old, but with a focus on 16 - 18 years old).

The long-term goal is to create a usable #lesson where pupils go out and map using a data collection app. If you have any experience with this, would you be so kind to spend 10 minutes of your time to fill out the survey?

Tři postřehy z povodní

Letošní velké povodně se naší rodině vyhnuly. Přesto jsem jejich průběh sledoval, protože v zasažených oblastech jsem měl vzdálenější rodinu, kolegy, známé. Jak už to u takových tragických událostí bývá, vyvolaly celou řadu diskusí: o schopnosti krajiny zadržovat vodu, budování přehrad, polderů atd. Mě ale pohledem ajťáka zaujaly tři věci.

I've recently taken to adding a direction tag to benches in #OpenStreetMap. My convention is that the tag value corresponds to the direction of view.

Delighted to find that @vespucci_editor now shows (single) direction values, but wished I'd known about the whizzy direction tag gadget which uses the phone's compass yesterday. (It's a bit too clever if adding the values in retrospect.)

A black 4-seater bench with a backrest and arm rests set on grass. There is an inscription plate on the backrest.

@fabianstadler Everything is #OpenStreetMap data, so someone added it. You can see the history of an object if you log in and press the green OSM-logo.

And if you know of missing vending machines, you can add them yourself too - that is why the button 'add new feature' is there ;)

#openstreetmap @Fabian 🌵

Did you know? mapcomplete.org supports hotkeys. Our favourites are:

P (and shift+P) to select a Picture-based background, M (and Shift+M) for a map (not based on OSM), and O for an #OpenStreetMap based one. Backgrounds are curated by the editor layer index.

And of course, Ctrl+F selects the search bar. Btw, a big improvement to search is coming soon.

For more hotkeys, check the 'Hotkeys'-page in the menu

A small Belgian NGO has collected data about bicycle parkings, but they now want to import their bicycle parking data into #OpenStreetMap

Care to help a bit? It is a big game of geo-sleuthing ;)

It can be done by:

1. Open mapcomplete.org/velopark
2. Search a yellow icon - it is a bicycle parking to import
3. Figure out if it still exists and where exactly it is located
4. Link or create a new bicycle parking
5. Update attributes

Rinse and repeat! Happy mapping and thanks for helping!

🗺️ One of the things I try to do when on the island (or anywhere remote) is update OSM with new amenities, or delete ones that have closed.

I’m using Every Door at the moment. It works, but pretty it is not. Alternatives? Anyone? every-door.app/

#osm #openStreetMap

A smartphone displays a map interface with the OpenStreetMap logo. The map shows an island connected by a bridge or walkway. Two restaurant markers are listed with icons indicating features such as phone numbers and links. A toolbar is visible at the bottom of the screen.
