street names in Israel have several fundamental problems

Nice, I’ll upload it today!
Thank you!

Update: uploaded.

The first chunk (1-3000) is finished and ready for upload. (All streets are translated)
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjoRSMeOZcXDdDVuOXhKMV8waGpUYlNmMGIxMDNXdHc

The second chunk (3000- 6000) is having around 50 non translated street names.

Do you want to update all rows or only with “x” in “Updated”?

Upd: Successfully uploaded http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/14404762

I have definded all updqted information with a x
But you are also welcome to update everything.

New results from Geofabrik and new tables uploaded and available for editing:

1-6000=> https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjoRSMeOZcXDdDVtTGNic29NZjBjVTY3WjhSMEcwYWc (should be in a good shape, Russian and Arabic translation are missing)
6000-9000 => https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjoRSMeOZcXDdDY1bk44Uklod1pxQlBLcWVZMlV4X0E

This one already have nice count of “x”. Let’s upload it today?

I finished the “again” the adjustments. A lot of name fixes and combinations of names are done for the first chunk.
You are welcome to upload 1 - 6000 now :slight_smile:

I’m starting to work on 6000 - 9000

1,5 hour later I also finished the chunk from 6000- 9000.

All done.

Who is editing the 9.000 - 10.000 ?
I finished it already.

I saw you connected.
If soo, I’ll upload it very soon.

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

Wow… doesn that mean that I have to upload the new tables from now on by myself ? :slight_smile:

But in my opinion you should open a new thread about your tool. It may interesting to others not following this thread.

Oh yes, now all credit of changes will belong to you only :slight_smile:

I want to little test it here, and if all goes good - I’ll repost in in the other thread.

I have done today my first bulk upload and it seems like everything went fine:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/14676351

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!

New version works fine and its really nice to know how much will follow.
Thank you.

The first 12.000 streets are adjusted.
10.000 streets have to follow…

The first 13.000 streets are adjusted.

topics to discuss:

Haim, Hayim, Chaim
Zion, Tsion, Tsiyon
HaRav, HaRabi, HaRabbi
etc…

What should be the standard for the name:en tag.
I’m never deleting values, only putting them as name:en1, name:en2 etc.
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?
