			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the most interesting things about OSM is the fact that it allows you to &#8220;map the reality&#8221;, map the ground-truth, not what the State-run maps tells you it&#8217;s there, but what is actually there.</p>
<p>Recently, on 10. January, an illegal horse racing, in a sort of clandestine racetrack was blocked by the military police in Pachino, Syracuse (Sicily, Italy). The blitz has, so far, allowed to identify more than 20 horse owners, jockeys and 3 veterinarians. The land placed in the open countryside, less than 2km from the sea, where the race was stopped, was a clandestine race-course, complete with boxes for the horses.</p>
<p>Just after discovering the news, I went hunting for that track on aerial images. We have been lucky enough to have been granted access to some 25cm resolution images, these images were made by the <a href="http://88.53.214.52/content/view/95/112/">Regione Sicilia</a>, after some more research I ended up discovering that the racetrack is located in <a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/631172271">Contrada Granelli</a>, and not nearby the inhabited part of the Pachino town, so in the end, I was able to find it on the map, and tag it accordingly.</p>
<p>&lt;way id=&#8221;49641876&#8243;&gt;<br />
&lt;tag k=&#8221;clandestine&#8221; v=&#8221;yes&#8221;/&gt;<br />
&lt;tag k=&#8221;leisure&#8221; v=&#8221;track&#8221;/&gt;<br />
&lt;tag k=&#8221;name&#8221; v=&#8221;Granelli&#8221;/&gt;<br />
&lt;tag k=&#8221;sport&#8221; v=&#8221;horse_racing&#8221;/&gt;<br />
&lt;/way&gt;</p>

<p>Surely this is not as important as what my friend <a href="http://brainoff.com/weblog/">Mikel</a> is doing in <a href="http://mapkibera.org/">Kibera</a>, but still a declaration of indipendence from the canonical mapmakers.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For a poster I&#8217;m working on for the <a href="http://http://www.gi4dm-2010.org/haiti.php">Geomatics for Crisis Management</a> conference, I did run some simple stats on the Haiti Planet extracts. After the recent Earthquake, and after the donation of free/libre aerial imagery there has been an increase in user contributions.</p>
<p>These are the total number of users in the Haiti planet extract as of today (the 29th), and dating back to the 14th. For comparison purpose I&#8217;ve added the data for 30th dec 2009. It can clearly be seen that the biggest spike was on 16th, reason being on the 15th the first high quality images were made available for retracing. Then, same thing, same reason, on the 22nd.</p>
<p>first column: date of the extract<br />
second: unique users contributing to the Haiti map<br />
third: Megabytes of the uncompressed extract file (useful for gathering a rough idea of &#8220;detail&#8221;)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>La mancanza di mappe aggiornate alla reale situazione post-terremoto rischiava di compromettere le attività di salvataggio.</p>
<p>Dopo il terremoto ad Haiti la macchina internazionale degli aiuti si è immediatamente messa in moto, questa volta, una importantissima azione è stata svolta dai volontari <a href="http://osm.org">openstreetmap</a>.</p>
<p>Poche ore dopo sono state rese disponibili foto aeree delle zone colpite, i nostri volontari si sono, indipendentemente, messi all&#8217;opera e hanno iniziato a inserire dati nel nostro database, questo ha portato, nel giro di poche ore, alla generazione di mappe aggiornate dell&#8217;isola, con indicate tutte le strade ancora percorribili, le posizioni dei campi profughi, ponti inagibili, il neo costruito aeroporto.</p>
<p>Le mappe vengono continuamente aggiornate e sono rese immediatamente disponibili per qualsiasi uso, commerciale, o umanitario. Esse sono scaricabili sui navigatori portatili e usate sui cellulari dotati di GPS.</p>
<p>E&#8217; uno straordinario esempio di come un approccio partecipato può funzionare anche in questi drammatici casi.</p>
<p>Un esempio di <a href="http://haiti.openstreetmap.nl/?zoom=14&amp;lat=18.55545&amp;lon=-72.32512&amp;layers=B00FFFFFFFFF">mappa che mostra gli accampamenti spontanei</a>.</p>
<p>Due immagini che mostrano il progresso: la prima è Port au Prince adesso, la seconda, prima del terremoto.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Finalmente disponibile in italiano <a href="http://maposmatic.org">Maposmatic</a>, un servizio open source che permette la creazione di mappe cittadine assolutamente gratis a partire dai dati del progetto <a href="http://osm.org">Openstreetmap</a>. Scegliendo il nome del proprio comune in un motore di ricerca, si arriva in pochi click alla generazione di un dppio file: una mappa cittadina e un elenco di vie. Entrambi disponibili in vari formati e stampabili facilmente. La qualità è di livello professionale e non ha nulla da invidiare alle cartine di <a href="http://www.geoplan.it/">Geoplan</a> (e non contiene pubblicità). Questo è un altro chiaro esempio di come il software libero sia arrivato a livelli di sofisticazione superiori a quello proprietario anche nel settore della geografia libera.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Qualche giorno fa, il 14 dicembre, un articolo di <a href="http://gualerzi.blogautore.repubblica.it/">Valerio Gualerzi</a>, frutto di una mia intervista, è stato pubblicato sia sulla versione cartacea (pag. 27) che sulla versione online di repubblica.it: <a href="http://www.repubblica.it/2009/08/sezioni/tecnologia/google-world-1/aggiorna-mappe/aggiorna-mappe.html">http://www.repubblica.it/2009/08/sezioni/tecnologia/google-world-1/aggiorna-mappe/aggiorna-mappe.html</a> a</p>
<p>Un paio di citazioni significative:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Ci sono zone del mondo che non sono disponibili sui navigatori satellitari perché manca un tornaconto economico a realizzare i programmi&#8221;, precisa. Uno dei casi più emblematici, e fiore all&#8217;occhiello di Open Street Map, è il lavoro svolto a Gaza, dove finalmente le ambulanze possono correre in soccorso dei malati seguendo le istruzioni di un navigatore. &#8220;I colossi come Teleatlas o Navteq naturalmente non avevano nessun interesse commerciale a produrlo&#8221;.</p></blockquote>
<p>Poi&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Il problema &#8211; spiega ancora Cortesi &#8211; è che la normativa italiana è particolarmente ambigua in materia. Tutte le amministrazioni locali sono tenute a realizzare delle mappe del loro territorio, ma i termini dei diritti d&#8217;uso non sono affatto chiari. Il Friuli Venezia Giulia è uno dei pochi enti che ha messo il suo materiale a disposizione con il risultato che oggi disponiamo di carte dei centri urbani talmente ben fatte e dettagliate che sono un riferimento per gli stessi dipendenti&#8221;.</p></blockquote>
<p>Credo si tratti della miglior uscita a stampa dedicata ad <a href="http://osm.org">OpenStreetMap</a> in Italia.</p>
