Please don't retrace LINZ coastlines or other source=gps items with Bing satellite traces which for many parts of the country are very badly aligned (60-100m out) and of inferior quality to the aerial ortho-photographs the LINZ data was traced from. If you notice a problem on the map and don't have time to fix it or are not sure what needs to be done, then please leave a note in the relevant sub-section, so that other people can help resolve it. Alternatively, is a great way of simply leaving notes on a map, without having to get into editing, or registering. Contents. Community OSM Auckland meetings Meetings currently suspended.

Newzealand.osm as NZ territory is across the international date line, data for the entire country needs to be downloaded in two pieces: North and South Islands on any system with installed (most GNU/Linux and BSD systems have wget by default, it can be installed on windows), this code will download an excerpt of the planet.osm file, containing data for new zealand's north and south islands wget -O newzealand.osm alternatively, use this as the download link:.
It's a time not only to ingest much-needed nutrition but to meet others and socialize. • Eat your (frozen) veggies: Meals punctuate the day. In an extreme place such as Antarctica, you simply cannot afford it. So, what can people do in order to prevent this? • Keep warm: This might seem obvious, but using adequate protective clothing will reduce exposure to extreme cold and prevent sudden changes of temperature.

Here is a page for discussion of, including Māori localization and what to call populated places of varying sizes. Issues with alignment of Bing imagery a number of OSM users are reporting poor accuracy of the Bing images - alignment is out by up to 20m in some areas of the world (e.g. Milford Sound out by approx 60m). The intention of the table below is to collect information regarding the accuracy of the images in New Zealand. It may be useful to carry out the same checks at different zoom levels See also: and for further discussions regarding accuracy of Bing imagery. Where available, large numbers of GPS traces can be used to correctly align the imagery, for example in JOSM using the Imagery plugin (see ), however this offset may only be valid for a few hundred metres, at which point the alignment may drift by 5m, and re-alignment using GPS traces will be necessary.
The alignment issue is inherent in aerial or satellite photography. Due to the different terrain heights as they present themselves to the camera lens and the curve of the earth this produces a 2D image that is not possible to get exactly aligned on all four sides. When the image has to be aligned to other images that are stitched together to make up the full background canvas it is quite commonly the case that they do not line up completely. As cameras get higher resolution and can take in more terrain in one photo this problem gets reduced but never eliminated.
See for more information about how this is corrected. Unless imagery is orthorectified, these problems always occur. 21:45, 2 January 2012 (UTC) see comments re.
