    CHAPTER 3 A Review of OpenStreetMap Data Peter Mooney* and Marco Minghini† *Department of Computer Science, Maynooth University, Maynooth, Co. Kildare, Ireland, [email protected] †Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Politecnico di Milano, Piazza Leonardo da Vinci 32, 20133 Milano, Italy Abstract While there is now a considerable variety of sources of Volunteered Geo- graphic Information (VGI) available, discussion of this domain is often exem- plified by and focused around OpenStreetMap (OSM). In a little over a decade OSM has become the leading example of VGI on the Internet. OSM is not just a crowdsourced spatial database of VGI; rather, it has grown to become a vast ecosystem of data, software systems and applications, tools, and Web-based information stores such as wikis. An increasing number of developers, indus- try actors, researchers and other end users are making use of OSM in their applications. OSM has been shown to compare favourably with other sources of spatial data in terms of data quality. In addition to this, a very large OSM community updates data within OSM on a regular basis. This chapter provides an introduction to and review of OSM and the ecosystem which has grown to support the mission of creating a free, editable map of the whole world. The chapter is especially meant for readers who have no or little knowledge about the range, maturity and complexity of the tools, services, applications and organisations working with OSM data. We provide examples of tools and services to access, edit, visualise and make quality assessments of OSM data. We also provide a number of examples of applications, such as some of those How to cite this book chapter: Mooney, P and Minghini, M.

  • 16 Volunteered Geographic Information
    16 Volunteered Geographic Information Serena Coetzee, South Africa 16.1 Introduction In its early days the World Wide Web contained static read-only information. It soon evolved into an interactive platform, known as Web.2.0, where content is added and updated all the time. Blogging, wikis, video sharing and social media are examples of Web.2.0. This type of content is referred to as user-generated content. Volunteered geographic information (VGI) is a special kind of user-generated content. It refers to geographic information collected and shared voluntarily by the general public. Web.2.0 and associated advances in web mapping technologies have greatly enhanced the abilities to collect, share and interact with geographic information online, leading to VGI. Crowdsourcing is the method of accomplishing a task, such as problem solving or the collection of information, by an open call for contributions. Instead of appointing a person or company to collect information, contributions from individuals are integrated in order to accomplish the task. Contributions are typically made online through an interactive website. Figure 16.1 The OpenStreetMap map page. In the subsequent sub-sections, examples of crowdsourcing and volunteered geographic information establishment and growth of OpenStreetMap have been devices, aerial photography, and other free sources. This are described, namely OpenStreetMap, Tracks4Africa, restrictions on the use or availability of geospatial crowdsourced data is then made available under the the Southern African Bird Atlas Project.2 and Wikimapia. information across much of the world and the advent of Open Database License.

  • Backsplash Patterns for Your World: a Look at SAS® Openstreetmap (OSM) Tile Servers Barbara B
    MWSUG 2018 - Paper SB-034 Backsplash Patterns for Your World: A Look at SAS® OpenStreetMap (OSM) Tile Servers Barbara B. Okerson, Manteo, NC ABSTRACT Originally limited to SAS Visual Analytics, SAS now provides the ability to create background maps with street and other detail information in SAS/GRAPH® using open source map data from OpenStreetMap (OSM). OSM provides this information using background tile sets available from various tile servers, many available at no cost. This paper provides a step-by-step guide for using the SAS OSM Annotate Generator (the SAS tool that allows use of OSM data in SAS). Examples include the default OpenStreetMap tile server for streets and landmarks, as well as how to use other free tile sets that provide backgrounds ranging from terrain mapping to bicycle path mapping. Dare County, North Carolina is used as the base geographic area for this presentation. INTRODUCTION OpenStreetMap is a source of mapping data built by a community of mappers that contribute and maintain data about roads, trails, cafés, railway stations, and much more, all over the world. OSM is open data and can freely be used for any purpose as long as OpenStreetMap and its contributors are credited. In other words, OSM is a collaborative project to create a free and editable map of the world. It is supported by the OpenStreetMap Foundation, a non-profit registered in England and Wales. The OSM project was started because geographic data is not free in many parts of the world. For example, Google maps data is copyrighted by many organizations and licensed by Google, therefore not free to use without permission.

In the past, the innovation processes was time-consuming and costly. It has now become significantly efficient and effective, supported by the advancement of today’s IT such as Internet, Cloud Computing and Big Data. Open innovation has changed the aspect of the innovation source; from closed internal R&D to fully utilization of consumers’ collaboration. Decision to shift towards open innovation strategy has been lying on several areas including motivation, financial direction, and preference of the innovation strategies and business models that fitting the organizational core strategy.

  • Global Media Journal - Australian Edition - 5:2 2011
    Global Media Journal - Australian Edition - 5:2 2011 Researching mapping: methods, modes and moments in the (im)mutability of OpenStreetMap Chris Perkins– University of Manchester Abstract This paper explores the potential of the OpenStreetMap (OSM) and investigates the discourses and performances enacted by participants in the light of a research agenda focusing on “modes, methods and moments of mapping” revealed in the project (Dodge, Perkins & Kitchin, 2009). The approach taken in this paper was to select key elements from the manifesto and critically consider these in light of OSM. In so doing, there are of course overlaps between themes, but the manifesto offers a focused means of redefining emergent approaches to mapping. Collaborative approaches such as OSM, which are based upon volunteered input into shared internet-based resources, seem to offer a radical alternative to more traditional mapping, subverting proprietary systems by apparently changing politics. However the research presented here argues that we need to attend more to the mutability of "‘crowd-sourced" neo-geography, but instead of assuming a profound political change occasioned by a technological shift this paper suggests contextual studies encompassing local practice need to be researched. We need to be aware of the diverse sites at which meaning is constructed and to recognise tensions in new social engagements and the meanings called into being by crowd-sourced mapping practices, but also to acknowledge the immutable elements that remain in an apparently constantly emergent mapping process. Introduction In 2009 in the concluding chapter to our book Rethinking Maps (Dodge, Perkins & Kitchin, 2009), we put forward a manifesto for map studies, that focused on modes, methods, and moments of mapping.

  • Corporate Editors in the Evolving Landscape of Openstreetmap
    International Journal of Geo-Information Article Corporate Editors in the Evolving Landscape of OpenStreetMap Jennings Anderson 1,* , Dipto Sarkar 2 and Leysia Palen 1,3 1 Department of Computer Science, University of Colorado Boulder, Boulder, CO 80309, USA; [email protected] 2 Department of Geography, National University of Singapore, Singapore 119077, Singapore; [email protected] 3 Department of Information Science, University of Colorado Boulder, Boulder, CO 80309, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 18 April 2019; Accepted: 14 May 2019; Published: 18 May 2019 Abstract: OpenStreetMap (OSM), the largest Volunteered Geographic Information project in the world, is characterized both by its map as well as the active community of the millions of mappers who produce it. The discourse about participation in the OSM community largely focuses on the motivations for why members contribute map data and the resulting data quality. Recently, large corporations including Apple, Microsoft, and Facebook have been hiring editors to contribute to the OSM database. In this article, we explore the influence these corporate editors are having on the map by first considering the history of corporate involvement in the community and then analyzing historical quarterly-snapshot OSM-QA-Tiles to show where and what these corporate editors are mapping. Cumulatively, millions of corporate edits have a global footprint, but corporations vary in geographic reach, edit types, and quantity. While corporations currently have a major impact on road networks, non-corporate mappers edit more buildings and points-of-interest: representing the majority of all edits, on average. Since corporate editing represents the latest stage in the evolution of corporate involvement, we raise questions about how the OSM community—and researchers—might proceed as corporate editing grows and evolves as a mechanism for expanding the map for multiple uses.

  • How Good Is Openstreetmap Information
    Haklay, M., 2008, Please note that this is an early version of this article, and that the definitive, peer- reviewed and edited version of this article is published in Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design. Please refer to the publication website for the definitive version. How good is Volunteered Geographical Information? A comparative study of OpenStreetMap and Ordnance Survey datasets Abstract Within the framework of Web Mapping 2.0 applications, the most striking example of a geographical application is the OpenStreetMap project. OpenStreetMap aims to create a free digital map of the world and is implemented through the engagement of participants in a mode similar to software development in Open Source projects. The information is collected by many participants, collated on a central database and distributed in multiple digital formats through the World Wide Web (Web). This type of information was termed ‘Volunteered Geographical Information’ (VGI) by Mike Goodchild (2007). However, to date there has been no systematic analysis of the quality of VGI. This paper aims to fill this gap by analysing OpenStreetMap information. The examination starts with the characteristics of OpenStreetMap contributors, followed by analysis of its quality through a comparison with Ordnance Survey datasets. The analysis focuses on London and England, since OpenStreetMap started in London in August 2004 and therefore the study of these geographies provides the best understanding of the achievements and difficulties of VGI. The analysis shows that OpenStreetMap information can be fairly accurate: on average within about 6 metres of the position recorded by the Ordnance Survey, and with approximately 80% overlap of motorway objects between the two datasets.
