At the time he was studying archeology and instead of going out and playing Indiana Jones, he found himself in front of a computer monitor trying to predict where archeological sites were located based on LANDSAT satellite data. The lure of computers ultimately led to his defection from academia to the software industry, where he worked as a programmer, technical writer, and manager; eventually ending up at a rather large software company based in Redmond, Washington. Joel now writes and consults on technology he finds interesting, such as GPS and digital maps. Over the years he’s had practical experience using GPS and maps for wild- land firefighting, search and rescue, and disaster response and planning. He’s also an avid user of the great outdoors (which means there’s way too much gear in his garage), competes in adventure races and other endurance sports, and so far has always found his way back home. In his spare time he volun- teers for a federal Disaster Medical Assistance Team. This is his second book. The first was Secrets of Computer Espionage: Tactics & Countermeasures (also published by Wiley), a reference guide for computer security practitioners and anyone interested in stopping sneaky spies. Author’s Acknowledgments First off, thanks to my wife, Darcy, for her support during my work on this book, especially for putting up with all of the maps, CD-ROMs, cables, manu- als, and GPS receivers scattered all over the house during the duration. Next on the list are the folks at Wiley, including Katie Feltman, my acquisi- tions editor and Pat O’Brien, my project editor. And a special note of appreci- ation to GPS and map guru Gavin Hoban, who diligently served as my technical editor. I’d also like to thank the following manufacturers for supplying review copies of their products to write about: DeLorme (Caleb Mason), Endless Pursuit (Jack Robson), Lowrance (Steve Wegrzyn and Luke Morris), Magellan (Angela Linsey-Jackson), Maptech (Martin Fox), Microsoft, National Geographic, and TopoFusion (Scott Morris). I especially appreciate the help from the folks named in the parentheses who went above and beyond the call of duty in answering questions and providing assistance. Finally, I’d like to express thanks to the following people for giving me feed- back on various parts of the book: Bob Daley, Jan Daley, Cynthia Engel, Jeff Madden, Doug McNamara, and Judy McNamara.

    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.

Tampereen teknillinen yliopisto - Tampere University of Technology Tampere 2008 ISBN 978-952-15-1971-0 (printed) ISBN 978-952-15-2016-7 (PDF) ISSN 1459-2045 On Applicable Cellular Positioning for UMTS Jakub Marek Borkowski April 29, 2008 Abstract Enabling the positioning of cellular handsets increases the safety level and at the same time opens exciting commercial opportunities for operators through providing location-based services. A major implementation obstacle, which prevents a wide deployment of cellular location techniques is the requirement of modifications of the existing network infrastructures and a need for the replacement of legacy terminals. Despite a significant amount of research on the mobile positioning problem, there are still unresolved aspects regarding applicable positioning solutions providing es- timation accuracy sufficient for the majority of location-based services. Typically, the applicability of positioning technology in current networks and provided estimation accuracy yield for trade off. The aim of the research performed in the frame of this thesis is to propose network- and mobile-based location techniques for UMTS networks that do not require any changes on the network side or in the user terminals and at the same time provide a reasonable estimation performance.
