#1 Re: users: Israel » Bus routes - are they worth mapping? » Yesterday 22:32:17
Mapping bus routes manually - isn't very easy and fast task...
Given the fact that we have whole GTFS information (bus stops and routes) it will be easier to import them all at once (otherwise will need to perform some sort of merging of old and new data)
You can monitor GTFS related thread (http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=16738) for any news about import process.
#2 Re: users: Israel » What's the correct way of adding house numbers to buildings? » Yesterday 22:27:21
Hello and welcome!
It depend on how much information you have.
If you know only first and last numbers (or even only one and direction) - you'd probably use interpolation.
If you know that some address is in some building - put node somewhere in it.
If you know that the whole building have only one address - add address tags on building polygon
If you know where exactly entrance is positioned - adding node on the building polygon with entrance=yes and address info - will be just perfect.
#3 Re: users: Israel » Local opening hours tagging » 2013-05-09 23:16:20
at http://www.netzwolf.info/en/cartography … xplanation
proposes to use "sunrise" and "sunset" variables to mark variable times.
So, for example, "1 hour before shabat" will be tagged as "sunset-1:00"
and a "half a hour after shabat" - "sunset+0:30"

It's explained here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Wiki … onventions
Same explanation with all possible values can be found at: http://www.wanderreitkarte.de/symbols_en.html
But I still do not understand how 
became osmc:symbol = blue:white:blue_stripe:orange_stripe_left
Will appreciate any explanation
#6 Re: users: Israel » Coloring "samash" trails » 2013-04-14 10:17:22
Each time I hike, I take note of trail coloring, but I have no clue how to tag this.
Can somebody give a short guide on this?

Guys,
I have several times noticed cases when my edition have been completely removed and replaced with a new one, not necessarily the better. I'm personally do not understand reasons to do this, but let's add another simple rule to our community:
If you think you going to delete or do a major changes at some place, try to contact user who worked on this place before (formal "owner"). If his edits are wrong - he will learn, if not - there is always a place for debate.
That of course doesn't include cases when this place was heavily changed.
#8 Re: users: Israel » street names in Israel have several fundamental problems » 2013-03-22 23:08:58
Despite the fact that "Sderot" and "Kikar" can be found on official road signs, I'm pretty sure that these words absolutely meaningless to the english language readers. So, I'd prefer to translate all translatable.
#9 Re: users: Israel » street names in Israel have several fundamental problems » 2013-03-22 17:03:35
One question bother me a long time: should I put "Boulevard" or "Avenue" in name:en instead of transliterated word "Sderot"?
And if yes, which one?
#10 Re: users: Israel » street names in Israel have several fundamental problems » 2013-03-10 16:44:44
@Mr_Israel, each time you do extracts into google docs - please share them. Additional pair of eyes will never harm (in most cases 
)

Another question to the community and especially to @mmd:
If different lanes have different max height - which to tag: the bigger or lower?
If I'll tag bigger value - I'll tell that one-lane-wide car under this height can pass on at least one of lanes.
If I'll tag lower value - I'll tell that any-width car under this height can pass on any lane.
#13 Re: users: Israel » Golan border » 2013-01-25 00:42:38
Undo such changes can end in a even bigger mess.
Why? Because of possible political reasons for this changeset?
#14 Re: users: Israel » street names in Israel have several fundamental problems » 2013-01-21 14:01:24
But we should decide what the standard name tag should be.
May be we can try to collect statistics of usage and drop most uncommon variants?
#15 users: Israel » Maxheight tag » 2013-01-17 23:24:42

Hi All,
Once I collected values of max height for most bridges on Ayalon highway. Then I cut roads before and after bridge and applied maxheight tag on the part under the bridge.
Today I thinking about another way - setting maxheight tag on large part of road from nearest entrance to the road and until next exit, in other words - if you can't go off the road with is passes under the bridge - the maxheight limit applies on the whole part. And if there is more than one height limits on this part - to use the lower one.
Any thought about this?
How would you apply this tag?
#16 Re: users: Israel » street names in Israel have several fundamental problems » 2013-01-16 22:37:04
It was very easy to handle, two feedbacks so far:
1. "Geting next 100 Ways from the API" => "Getting"
2. It would be great to get a kind of status how many lines are left (example: Getting next 100 Ways from the API - 500 left)
Fixed. Thanks!
#17 users: Israel » Link road classification » 2013-01-07 00:49:32

Hi all,
I want to discuss classification of link roads in Israel.
We have several options for giving classification to the link road:
1 Lower between two
2 Higher between two
3 Type of "from" road
4 Type of "to" road
It will be very good if we'll decide about single rule for this, so all junction will look similar.
For me, personally, only 2 and 4 makes sence.
#18 Re: users: Israel » street names in Israel have several fundamental problems » 2013-01-06 23:34:14
Wow... doesn that mean that I have to upload the new tables from now on by myself ? smile
Oh yes, now all credit of changes will belong to you only
But in my opinion you should open a new thread about your tool. It may interesting to others not following this thread.
I want to little test it here, and if all goes good - I'll repost in in the other thread.
#19 Re: users: Israel » street names in Israel have several fundamental problems » 2013-01-06 01:40:50
Mr_Israel and others,
I have published the tool which I used to upload recent street edits. Maybe somebody will find it useful.
In short, tool takes CSV file with id, type and tags columns; downloads nodes/ways/relations from OSM, and applies tag values from CSV onto downloaded data. As result - you'll get regular .osm file which may be reviewed and uploaded using JOSM.
All source code and link to the compiled application are here: https://github.com/yrtimiD/osm-bulk-tools
#20 Re: users: Israel » street names in Israel have several fundamental problems » 2013-01-05 23:05:19
Who is editing the 9.000 - 10.000 ?
I finished it already.
I saw you connected.
If soo, I'll upload it very soon.

A list of stations, their addresses and coordinations is published under the Tel-Aviv muni data site
Then perfect! But we already have many of them, so need to carefully merge.

I'm going to adupt this for the Tel-Ofan bicycle_rental.
I asked Tel-O-Fun guys once if they want to share their database, but got no answer.
Were you more lucky?
