plepe / OpenStreetBrowser

An application to ‘browse’ the information in the displayed part of the map. Similar to common Wikis and also the main page of http://www.openstreetmap.org the website shows a narrow menu on the left side, most of the page is used for the display of the map. In contrast to most Wikis the menu is not static, but rather the content of the map can be browsed in categories. For the map a special style has been developed (sorry guys, I neither like the default Mapnik nor Osmarender styles), and special overlays are displayed to support the current browsed categories. When you click on an object (either from the list or directly on the map) informations on this object are displayed.

Friendly opening hours #189

The pure display of the osm syntax for the opening hours isn't really user friendly. So instead of Mo-Th 08:00-10:00,11:00-14:00; Fr 08:00-10:00,11:00-13:30 it would be nice to have a table with the opening hours, with a highlight of the current day and a hint if the amenity is currently open or closed. For example:

I'd love to have this, but it's actually not that easy. Main problem is, that I have to evaluate in which time zone the object is, so I have to include a dataset of the time zones. I will look into this.

The ability to detect whether an amenity is currently open or closed would be ideal, especially if it could be reflected in the symbols on the map.

My use case: I use the Smokefree Gastronomy map a lot, both to locate smokefree places to go out to and also to decide where to go survey to map more smoking statuses. For both of these uses of the map, it'd be very useful to see the open/closed status alongside the smoking status (surveying this information often requires going inside the bar/restaurant).
