[Talk-gb-westmidlands] Old Longbridge building outlines

[Andy Robinson]

Looks to me like the Longbridge works was never traced into OSM, at least there is nothing present prior to May 2010 and only the undemolished ones a month later (added by Brian).

 

Stu, if you need to create the building outlines I can send you a rectified scanned map showing them.

 

Cheers

Andy

Stuart,

You could try the brand new "attic" data version of Overpass. This lets you query the OSM database for data AND specify a "as at" date.

For example the following will return a file (save as filename.osm and open in JOSM) of buildings in OSM in 2012 (within the bbox I have used):

http://overpass-api.de/api/interpreter?data=[date <http://overpass-api.de/api/interpreter?data=%5bdate> :"2012-01-01T01:00:00Z"][out:xml][timeout:25];(way["building"](52.38901106223456,-2.0073652267456055,52.40524656401494,-1.9664239883422852););out meta;>;out meta;

You will probably want check the bbox and the date. 

Hope this helps,

Rob

Before I attempt to go through the historic Planet osm and query it with Osmosis is there an easy way to see if the old Longbridge site had its building outlines captured in OSM please?

 

Also I wondered if anyone had any good sources for mapping underground Birmingham. I am interested in both tunnels, etc. but also underground infrastructure.

 

Many thanks,

 

Stuart
