[Imports] [Talk-us] TriMet will begin OSM improvements in the Portland area

[Tom Ponte]

PJ,

 

I would be interested in what kind of "significant  problems" you had with
the ArcMap extension if it is not too much trouble. It might save myself and
others some time and effort trying to figure out what are operator issues
and what are software issues. I have been working with that extension and
recently tried to convert some roads to trails and add a boundary for a
small BLM wilderness area as a test. The extension said the upload was
successful but nothing showed up in OSM.  If you are worried about being
exiled to Los Angles for listing the significant problems with the ESRI
extension you could email me directly. 

 

I will be looking forward to seeing your updated workflow.

 

Thanks

Hi Dave & Talk-US & Imports,

We decided against using Trimet in our name since as Richard pointed out,
OSM is a collection of individuals. This is us right now. I will let you
know if we change our names. Should we include RLIS (the data source) in our
user names? We are all using our personal emails, so we have kept everything
really informal so far.

And our workflow is changing a lot since we ran into significant problems
with ArcMap OSMEditor, though we are working with ESRI to improve the
editor. I hope to send an updated workflow really soon for input! Not many
changes to OSM have been done because we are still trying things out. 

But most importantly, all changes are being done one at a time. Nothing is
bulk. Every change is done "by hand". I am doing my best to make sure nobody
else's hard work is overwritten or deleted!

Hi PJ,

I was just looking for your user pages so I could spy on your
improvements:

       http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/TriMet_BB

for instance.  Did you end up using some different usernames, or have
you just not created them yet?
