[OSM-talk] Lighthouses

[OJ W]

Hi.

I did some code to convert the lighthouse, heliport, and buoy data from CIL
(commissioner irish lights)

http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Dolphin3900/diary/1233

resulting in this OSM file:

http://dev.openstreetmap.org/~ojw/files/Lighthouses/lighthouses.osm

Tagging notes/discussion is at:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Talk:Tag:man_made%3Dlighthouse

If anyone has comments on the tags etc, then please do join the discussion


It has been suggested that we could approach some other lighthouse
maintainers for their data, once it's been shown that we can do something
useful with it in OSM (e.g. trinity house, NLB)


regards,

OJW

p.s. anyone interested in drawing each lighthouse in its proper colours?  I
have a node -> SVG library to interpret the building:* tags...

p.p.s. anyone interested in animation?  I have a library that will give you
the sequence of colours/timings that each lighthouse flashes...
