Israel Hiking map

OK
Since the horses are probably best described as “an exotic mean for traveling” we can probably ignore it and wait for some riding fan to work on this issue in the future.

Maybe in the meantime, add horse=designated to the ways?

As of this moment, the INT and the Golan seem to have the old markings on lonvia.

That’s because someone (ahem…) noticed that the white stripe wasn’t on the right, and Lonvia doesn’t support it yet… :wink:

I wonder, who would this be? ;;;;:wink:

Lonvia is now showing INT and the Golan Trail correctly. :slight_smile:

Congratulations -
hikebikemap is now showing black bars and stripes
e.g. http://hikebikemap.de/?zoom=14&lat=31.79399&lon=35.0547

Would have looked better if it had a thin line framing the symbols (like Lonvia has); The white stripes blend with the pale background.

I agree but I find it not critical.
Colin is highly responsive and prooved very cooperative so I might drop him a note if you have’nt done so yet.

I haven’t. Go ahead. And if you come to that, what’s the point in having symbols in 2 different sizes?

Message sent.
Regarding the sizes -

I find the hikebikemap use of two sizes to give more accurate marking and less interfering with the basic map (thanks to the tightly spreaded small markings) while yet having an eye catching effect (thanks to the sparse larger markings).

I guess it’s a matter of taste.
I would have the smaller ones only, and sparser.

This is a quote of Colins replay

I received permission from Raz Goren to upload his GPX files to openstreetmap.
Visit http://sites.google.com/site/mountainbikeridesinisrael/ for a whole bunch of info about mountain biking in Israel.
I’ll start working with it tomorrow.

Wow :slight_smile:

Among biking rail relations, the Adulam and Einav Singles are currently tagged regional networks. Shouldn’t we call them local?
Right now I think only “Yam to Yam” in regional, and Shvil Israel (to be) is national.

Valley

You are correct.
Adulam and Einav are local.
TLV-JM is resional.

P.S.
Great that you have started the Israel Bike Trail! :slight_smile:

Where can I find an explanation or tutorial on how to edit(ADD) more hiking routes to the map?

Thank you

Hi Douglas,

Thanks for your interest in the IsraelHiking map.

The map is updated from the OSM data.

If you know Hebrew, there are several YouTube video tutorials on how to update the map. See the thread at http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=52733

There are also English guidelines at the OSM Israel Wiki page at http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Israel#Main_conventions

Best Regards, Zeev
