<html><body>Hi,<br /><br />I had a bit of a go at the missing street names last night and have developed a workflow and and measures. I'd invite any armchair mappers to help me on this. <br /><br />I'm getting through about 100 missing names per hour so there is about 28 hours of armchair mapping here that will help quite a bit. I've done most of the bit between Churchill Road, Grand Junction Road, Hampstead Road and the ring route.<br /><br />Measures:<br />Sum the number of missing names and major roads for each OSMI update using the following scripts: As of <span>2013-11-26 20:52
</span> (UTC) <span>its 304 major and 2607 minor = 2911 total<br /><br />wget "http://tools.geofabrik.de/osmi/view/highways/wxs?SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetFeature&BBOX=138.42,-35.35,138.92,-34.56&TYPENAME=name_missing_major" -O - | grep ms:way_id | wc -l<br /><br />wget "http://tools.geofabrik.de/osmi/view/highways/wxs?SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetFeature&BBOX=138.42,-35.35,138.92,-34.56&TYPENAME=name_missing_minor" -O - | grep ms:way_id | wc -l<br /><br /></span><br />Workflow:<br />step 1 - Identify a rectangular area (bounding box) to work on from http://tools.geofabrik.de/osmi/?view=highways&lon=138.61652&lat=-34.89897&zoom=11&overlays=name_missing_major,name_missing_minor<br />step 2 - Download Roads.zip from http://data.sa.gov.au/dataset/roads which has street names in it<br />step 3 - Create a new vector layer in QGIS from roads.zip (takes a minute or two)<br />step 4 - select the bounding box identified in step 1 in QGIS (the bounding box tool is in a pull-down icon)<br />step 4 - export the selected objects in this layer to a new shapefile. This gives something that JOSM will load quickly<br />step 5 - Open up JOSM and open the shapefile from step 4 (needs the OpenData plug in), this should be fairly quick and painless<br />step 6 - As a new layer, download part of the area identified at step 1 to work on<br />step 7 - press validate<br />step 8 - for each unnamed way identified at step 7, zoom to it and then alter the visible layer to identify the name, then edit in the correct name and use a tag "source:name"="data.sa.gov.au". Remove fixme=name tags if present<br />step 9 - repeat steps 7 and 8 until no unnamed ways are left<br />step 10 - time permitting have a look at other JOSM identified validation errors<br />step 11 - repeat step 6 to 10 until the whole area is covered<br />step 12 - repeat steps 1 to 11 until all of Adelaide is fixed<br /><br />
