[OSM-talk] Hong Kong Wikimania maps

Sun May 12 21:02:22 UTC 2013

http://Umap.openstreetmap.fr (from http://umap.fluv.io) is the best Open choice IMO. Creates much more sensible URLs, too.

I CCd Yohan, the developer. But they shouldn't really need his or anyone's help to do what they need for this.

Wikimania is being held in Hong Kong in August.  They currently have a
Google Map with the important PoIs here:
https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=200955753921436397974.0004bda3a4e6517fb7561&msa=0&ll=22.300533,114.181124&spn=0.025412,0.032315

They also have a link to a Google Map showing the train route to get
from the dorm to the venue here:
http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=5+Baptist+University+Rd,+Kowloon+Tong,+Hong+Kong&daddr=22.304907,114.180477&hl=en&sll=22.320779,114.179814&sspn=0.050816,0.063858&geocode=FYfPVAEdkEnOBikBf4J9LgcENDGKObzuUQPt4w%3B&t=v&dirflg=r&ttype=now&noexp=0&noal=0&sort=def&mra=ls&z=14&start=0

The page with these links is here:
https://wikimania2013.wikimedia.org/wiki/Accommodation#Hong_Kong_Baptist_University_dorm

I spoke to one of the organisers, and he said that if we have a way to
represent this information on OSM, they'd be happy to switch.  What
would you suggest?

Thanks,
