Folks,
As i said previously, I got the complete map of my city in mapinfo
format, which Nick kindly converted for me to OSM format.
I discovered that the map had a different datum then my gpx logs (it
didn't use the WGS84), so I managed to convert the gpx generated by
JOST into WGS84. Now I would like to create an OSM from these correct
GPX tracks.
I do have some questions, having tried to use Josm:
1 - How can I change the direction of a segment?
2 - How can I move the map on the mac? (yeah, stupid question, but I
tried a lot and only zooming worked - and no, i don't have a two
button mouse)
3 - Is there a way to use the osmarender plugin on the Mac? I tried
without success, it tells me to make Firefox executable, which beats
me, as it is already executable, right? :)
4 - Should I stick to UK conventions? I mean, the styles already
understand it so it can be easily rendered, so if I create different
tags in Portuguese it will make it kinda hard when someone else wants
to render using a default osmarender, right?
Well, I have more questions, but I will keep it simple today! :)
Cheers,
Francis
