YUNoHost-server!

The max-boox-pro series had a HDMI-input to have an external eINK-screen and doubled as android laptop. Quite expensive though, and not that useful.

Yeah, the fediverse is amazing. I’ve had cases where I answered a lemmy thread without even realizing it was on lemmy ;)

Imagery sources are tracked here: https://github.com/osmlab/editor-layer-index

We track how to load the aerial imagery (thus: the WMS-link), what license it has and where it is applicable. Only aerial imagery where we have permission for is allowed.

Did you see https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Using_OpenStreetMap_offline already?

NOT all ESRI imagery can be used. Their maps are probably copyrighted; and a background satellite view seen in an ESRI-product (which your municipality happens to use) is not necessarily cleared for usage, even though it happens to be shown in an ESRI prodcuct…

You’re all welcome in !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml to discuss antying OSM-related.

The namechange of the Gulf has been discussed on our forum; how to deal with this has been decided in consensus.

And, obligated self-promo: if you want to start contributing to OSM, you can try https://mapcomplete.org/ (which is someting else then the StreetComplete app, but that one is nice too!)

TBH, I assisted with some linux installs and setting up a dual boot was troublesome. Installing a clean install worked easier!

If you have an old, spare laptop around, I recommend trying linux first with that laptop before making the plunge.

An end user cannot open provided XML files with it

What are you trying to do with it?

.pbf is a compression format (a bit like a .zip-file) which contains the .osm-file. The .osm-file is nothing more then an XML-file with a specific format and a .osm-extension.

Those are not meant for day-to-day users but more for developers.There are some programs able to open those files, such as JOSM or Osmosis.

(Ooh, a wild mapcomplete mention!)

MapComplete is mostly for picturers about single elements. We run our own Panoramax server for those images, but don’t generally accept ““real”” streetview imagery where one systematically captures whole stretches of road. Those can be sent to the instance hosted by the french community (for now).

Signed, the mapcomplete dev

It is whispered that the provider might be TomTom…

Looks cool! However, there is with badge.team also a similar app platform which they used on https://flow3r.garden/, on the MCH22-badge and the now in preorder namatsu: https://shop.nicolaielectronics.nl/products/tanmatsu?variant=55608856183133 (which I just ordered two of)

Their live traffic data’s comes not from OSM. It is not publicly known what their source is for this data.

Oh, damn, I didn’t notice this was OM. I wrongly assumed this was the main website.

I wonder why the OSM team isn’t calling the ISP out by name.

Because this would open up OSM for defamation (and hinders a commercial resolve). It doesn’t solve anything right now.

The seach engine tries to infer the correct administrative area based on points. This is known behaviour of nominatim some search engines but doesn’t mean that the data is incorrect

You are not allowed to use Google Maps for this. Ther is copyright protection on it.

How does it work? You go there and note down the addresses.

When you make a phone call, the antenna’s are used 100% for calling and using data is disabled (or at least, it used to be). Android might thus “pretend” that it is still connected.
