[OSM-talk-nl] Before/After pictures

[sjoerd at lawende.nl]

  Okay, went back this afternoon to redo the area at the beginning of  
the Haarlemmerstraat; my data from Saturday was just too random.  
Unfortunately the new data from today isn't much better... Going to  
need a better receiver for this kind of streets (the thing works fine  
in areas where the buildings are lower). I thought doing it by foot  
would help, which it didn't :p.

  For some 'lol, randomness', go here (note: I can't fly):

  Purple=me, green=existing data downloaded from the server. So, yeah,  
somewhat unusable :D.

  At least I did finish fixing up the Brouwersgracht just now. The bit  
parallel to the Haarlemmerstraat looked like it was trying to move in  
and merge with the Haarlemmerstraat. D: You can still see that in the  
before-after images.

  The following is a FYI in case someone wants to do work on this area:

  I think there is something fishy about the Herenmarkt:

  1.
  First of all, there's a street (a 'way') called 'Herengracht' that  
leads away from the Haarlemmerstraat and crosses the Brouwersgracht.  
This is partly incorrect; the way between the H'lemmerstraat and  
Brouwersgracht is called 'Herenmarkt'.

  2.
  Worse: the way that should be named 'Herenmarkt' is connected (via a  
bridge) to the wrong way named 'Herengracht'. There are two ways  
called 'Herengracht' (one on either side of the canal), and the  
Herenmarkt is connected to the wrong Herengracht. Note that when I say  
'Herenmarkt' I mean the one that is nearest the Singel (there is  
another one parallel to it, together they enclose a playground).

  I still mean to fix this, but I know that in the next two weeks I  
won't have the time or hardware to do it. If anyone wants to fix this  
part before I get to it, feel free to ask for details or a drawing if  
the above is unclear or something.

  Anyways, Saturday was fun, probably until (a) next time!


regards,

Sjoerd
