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.

route:share_taxi tag rendering ?? #29

Closed serpico closed 6 years ago

serpico commented 11 years ago

Hi Plepe,

I added some shared taxi routes for Malang, Indonesia ( http://www.openstreetbrowser.org/whats_here=112.63446239634602,-7.965297937915937 ) few days ago using route=share_taxi tag.Is there any chance I would see them with OSB anytime soon ? thanks

Oh hi, I didn't see your issue until now. Current OpenStreetBrowser data version still dates back to April 1st, 2012. A new version is already in the workings, but still needs some time. Hope to finish around new year.

Ok, thanks for the reply, but still what about route=share_taxi, would it be rendered after the data update ? Or should I switch to route=bus instead [even it bothers me a bit, since it doesn't match with the reality].Thanks

Hi Plepe, Up , nobody's home ?? :)

Ah sorry, I forgot to answer. My bad :(

I already checked, there are actually a couple of share_taxi routes, I think it really makes sense to include it in the Public Transport Overlay. But a re-work of this overlay is necessary anyway, e.g. to incorporate the Oxomoa public transport schema http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Oxomoa/Public_transport_schema .

Btw, the data update is not finished yet, there are still a lot of database queries to adapt (I implemented some major changes to the database structure).

Anyway, there's actually a method for you to display sharetaxi routes yourself: It's possible to create your own categories, see: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenStreetBrowser/Instructions#Categories.E2.80.93_editing.2C_adapting.2C_new

Thanks for the fast reply,

I added a Sharetaxi rule in the Route category like this :

                         

I guess I need to wait the DB update to see the changes...

Thanks and keep up the good work ;)

The update should take only a couple of seconds. See http://www.openstreetbrowser.org/?zoom=14&lat=54.50626&lon=36.23942&layers=&basemap=osb&categories=transport%5Btransport_pt%5Btransport_pt_routes%5D%5D&overlays=overlay_pt for an example of a shared_taxi route (route number 73). Keep in mind, that the database still dates from 2012, April 1st. So, if a route does not appear it might be too new.

It will not be rendered in the overlay though, as the Public Transport Overlay is special and not created from the category configuration.

greeetings, Plepe
