La première note de veille de @gibr

MécanoCycliste est le blog (Zaclys ) d'un mécano vélo de Nantes. Il y aborde : les livreurs (rapport de l'ANSES), les applis de guidage (Organic Maps, OsmAnd) et la traversée hivernale en 2 roues du Canada. Il revient aussi sur le tour du monde à vélo de 108 jours de Lael Wilcox.

It's crazy that #Garmin charges 1490 CZK (€60) for (#OSM-based) Topo Czech v5 Pro maps which are never updated while there are community projects that provide free maps for Garmin devices, updated weekly and for every country you can think of.

For Europe I can recommend: https://garmin.v0174.net/ or https://garmin.vasam.cz/

Frage an die #OpenStreetmap Bubble: Bin spaßeshalber heute mal mit dem Navi mit dem Rad zur Arbeit gefahren. Die Streckenführung war teilweise schlecht (unnötige Umwege) Fahrrad war natürlich eingestellt. Kann ich das irgendwie beeinflussen/ verbessern? Die Straße und Wege waren ja da. Danke. #osm

uMap just released version 3.0, first one to officially support real-time collaborative editing. But also, very importantly: "a first version of a real undo/redo", which used to be a recurring problem when I ran training (a Ctrl + Z would undo all the changes you've made since the last save).

I wonder when the first #OSM editor supporting Model Context Protocol will appear?

https://modelcontextprotocol.io

So it looks like OpenStreetMap does not have categories for stuff like halal/kosher or wheelchair accessible or kid's corner??

Can someone do something about this ASAP?

I've recently started being very interested in #OpenStreetMap and have tried various #OSM apps.

The #GoogleMaps feature that I miss in OSM is clicking on a place and seeing a list of reviews and photos of the place.

Is there a project built on top of OSM that adds the functionally of adding reviews, and/or easily uploading photos of a place? And an app that shows these reviews and/or photos?

Cortese promemoria che le giornate uggiose possono essere rese proficue editando OpenStreetMap: https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit

E quando torneremo a zonzo, si può sempre usare StreetComplete https://streetcomplete.app/ oppure Vespucci https://vespucci.io/ per qualche piccolo miglioramento al volo.

Hey #openstreetmap people. I want to digitize gardens from aerial imagery. Is there any tool that magically detects the green area and makes a polygon for me that I can adjust? #osm

Some of my notes on #OSM indoor navigation, #Transitous and #OpenTransport from last week's #FOSSGIS2025: https://volkerkrause.eu/2025/04/05/osm-fossgis-conference-2025.html

I will be doing a #osm workshop for my internal community. Currently, I have 97 people signed up already. What could you recommend as a first (edit) task for them?

I was thinking something from Maproulette, but any other ideas are welcomed. They are from around the world. #openstreetmap #gis

Ich frage mich, ob das coolste an der #FOSSGIS2025 in #Muenster die ausgezeichneten Vorträge waren oder diese genialen, trans*-farbenen #OSM-Sticker, die ich am OSM-Stand ergattern konnte.

Bei #streetcomplete sind heute die Katzen los.

I have lots of favorites (starred places) in #OSMand and I want to view them on a map on a bigger screen, not just on the phone. When I export them, I get a favorites.gpx file.

As far as I understand, these are waypoints on a track?

I opened the file in the nextcloud map, and it displays the points, but without any text.

The entries look like this:

<wpt lat="51.5320587" lon="-0.1773316">
<time>2025-01-18T22:23:30Z</time>
<name>Abbey Road Crossing</name>
<extensions>
<osmand:amenity_subtype>attraction</osmand:amenity_subtype>
<osmand:address>Abbey Road (South Hampstead), Camden Town</osmand:address>
<osmand:amenity_origin>Amenity:Abbey Road Crossing: tourism:attraction</osmand:amenity_origin>

I tried converting the file to (geo)json, but so far the file has come out empty. I realize I don't really know what I'm looking for. It doesn't have to be nextcloud compatible at all, that was just the first thing I had on hand.

I would like to see the points and their names on a map on a bigger screen.

Any suggestions please?

Alrighty. Several hours later, and I have Tarrant County's updated early voting locations :D

Overpass-turbo query: https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/21qx

Actual location info from county (can match up the numbers on the map to addresses): https://www.tarrantcountytx.gov/content/dam/main/elections/2025/0525/locations/0525_EV_Sched.pdf

And a reddit post in the FortWorth subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/FortWorth/comments/1jorg38/early_voting_locations_for_april_2025/

#reddit #pdf #OverpassTurbo #OSM #OpenStreetMap #OpenData #FortWorth #Tarrant #dfw #txpol #uspol

So far, I only have locations that serve (at least) as early voting centers. There are several more pages of day-of voting centers that I could conceivably add. I'm debating building a small, static, mobile website with #Leaflet to perhaps make a "show me my closest voting station" feature, and maybe a "schedule my voting time" feature that spits out an ical file or something. The opening hours are all there in the OSM data.

(Annoying sidenote: most college/university locations are either early vote only, election day only, or not open at all :()

So what to use if I want to self host a Google Maps alternative based on #OSM?

Looking for not just a map frontend library but ways to manage my own private POI collections, possibly import and visualize gpx tracks. Not interested in car routing.

Desktop app(s) would also be ok, but I'm not sure if I want to learn QGIS just to manage and visualize my collections of places and tracks.

We have a very nifty button on our map. It's called the Quick-button, left-top, blue and round, you can't miss it.

It has suggestions for all kind of things, like relaxing, shopping, a night out and other usefull stuff.

Go try it out, you migth just find what you're looking for!
