[OSM-talk-be] Workshop Trage Wegen

[Kenny Knecht]

Hi Wouter,

Ik heb die trackers liggen: misschien kan je me best bellen voor een
overdracht: XXXXXXXXXX. Ik heb zelf mijn speelgoed dus veel liggen ze hier
niet te doen.

>> Hi all,
>>
>> As Kenny announced some time ago, Trage Wegen vzw
>> (http://www.tragewegen.be) will organise an OSM workshop. Since he
>> can't be there, he asked on the list for others to take care of it,
>> which has become me.
>> Practically, the workshop will take place on June 18th in Haaltert.
>> Details to follow.
>> Anyone whishing to come is of course more than welcome.
>>
>> A few questions and remarks:
>>
>> * First of all, please try to avoid mapping in the Haaltert region the
>> until that day. Now there remains a lot to be done (it is just out of
>> the old good quality Google image area). For newcomers it is more fun
>> if their work shows clearly on the map.
>>
>> * Since most of them will not know OSM I would like to start with a
>> short presentation of OSM. Mainly the comparison with wikipedia and
>> some images showing possibilities and growth of OSM. With some nice
>> maps of course. Does such an introductory presentation exist and if
>> yes can someone send it to me?
>>
>> * Since this is for Trage Wegen vzw, I would like a convention on how
>> to map the numbers of buurtwegen/chemins vicinaux.
>> Reasons why it should be mapped:
>> - the numbers are an official reference, still used today (certainly
>> for paths, not really for regular roads)
>> - the data (especially the numbers) are available from an out of
>> copyright source (Atlas der Buurtwegen/Atlas des Chemins Vicinaux
>> dating from the 1840's), so a source that can be used. I do not
>> express myself if the digitisations that are nowadays available on the
>> websites of most provinces can be used, but the original atlas
>> certainly can be used.
>> There have been a few discussions a while ago, but as far as I
>> remember inconclusive. I remember that someone proposed vicinal_ref.
>> According to me a good suggestion for since it shows clearly what the
>> origin of the reference is. It is of course not internationally
>> recognised, which according to me is no problem since the whole
>> buurtwegen/chemins vicinaux concept is national. Any problems if I
>> would present this as the way to add those numbers?
>>
>> * If I remember well OSM-be has some loggers available for mapping
>> parties and the like. I could not find a page on the wiki about it.
>> Anyone has information? If they are available and could be used for
>> the workshop, how can I get them. I am commuting between Ghent and
>> Brussels so I can easily pick them up in any those two cities.
>>
>> * Any other suggestions?
