Here I've got some thoughts what we could do with OSM - what I've done - and where I'm currently working on
Contents |
What I'm doing currently or plan to do?
Experimenting with Map overlays
the plan is to create/search an easy to use open source Toolchain to generate a slippy map overlay with POIs out of the OSM database.
- it should run on free web hosts
- update the database nearly automaticly
- use the database even from forign websites
- easy to use in your own project/website
- easy to extend

mapping POIs
Especially shops and post_boxes (there have to be enough opening_hours tags for the planed ORTM ^^).
To find incomplete POIs I use a script (User:k4r573n/old#osm2gpx) to filter and create a gpx from an osm-file.
see here how I map Education POIS
Future Projects - or - what I'm dreaming of ^^
Bildungsatlas
This project aimes to provide informations of all education entitys in Brunswick.
- First goal is to import all education POIs to OSM - what tags should be used?
- Secondly Maperative will be used with a couple of scripts to generate detailed Maps of all city edges.
- And last but not least an online version as overlay with openlayers
Open Real Time Map (ORTM)
...this could be a Map like OpenLinkMap - (an browser embedded OSM map with a JavaScript overlay). ORTM should have special Icons depending on the opening_hours or collection_times of the object and the current time. So you can see whether the shop is open or not ;)
Maybe we can use the same basic scripts than OLM so we wont develop all stuff again. Currently I'm experimenting with map overlays lets see what the result might be!
Blindpeople's OSM
The map www.blind.accessiblemaps.org gets currently its information out of a text file so its really really slow. The idea is to use the source of OLM and load the required information dynamically out of a database. Development has started see here.
Indoor mapping
outdated
Sometimes I want a map to show others were special rooms are. So I would be glad if my old school could handle me some plans so that I can test this for an useful issue. By the way indoor routing would be nice too ;).
