From ed at mapillary.com Wed Oct 2 06:11:32 2019 From: ed at mapillary.com (Edoardo Neerhut) Date: Wed, 2 Oct 2019 16:11:32 +1000 Subject: [OSM-fi] talk-fi@openstreetmap.org Message-ID: Hi OSM Finland, Mapillary and my colleague Madelen (CCed) are in communication with local government agencies in Helsinki to make use of street-level imagery that they have collected and future collection plans. There is the opportunity to make the imagery available on Mapillary in which case it would be open for OpenStreetMap editing. Given the importance of OSM in Helsinki and in tools like https://reittiopas.hsl.fi/, is there an interest in using uploaded street-level imagery for map edits? There would be a greater incentive for government agencies to upload the imagery publicly if there is a willingness from the community to arrange a mapathon once the images had been uploaded. Mapillary can also provide to the community map features that we have detected automatically like bike racks, crosswalks and waste baskets. We're currently trialing this with locations that express interest through our fork of iD editor but hope to merge this into the main branch in coming months. We'd love to support any such mapathon and are also open to other ideas that would help improve OSM from the imagery. Thanks, Ed & the Mapillary team -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
