High intensity OSM data capture just driving about.. | Going to be very quiet for a while then! My intended route back through remote-ish SA has mostly already been covered.. Might be doing something south of Clare then east into Ouyen Vic in a few weeks.. |

Automating Viofo A129 Dashcam upload to Mapillary | Loosely related, the BlackVue dashcams NMEA stream is out of sync with the actual video by about 2 seconds. ie it is smart to extract all the streams, concatenate and uniq them, convert to GPX, then use as a single gpx input for each mp4. Perhaps the A29 has the same issue. Server side Mapillary processing actually only creates 117 of a possible 120-121 images of a 2FPS stream 1 minute stream, since it processes on a file by file basis. I dont do local mp4>jpg processing myself as it results in 2x upload size (cost), so put up with the resultant gaps. Cheers Bob |

Viofo A129 time-lapse mode | Gday Am sure you have checked, but looking at the exiftool doc -ee3 rather than just -ee I have not tried this myself, just reading stuff.. (same username for mapillary) Cheers Bob |

Regional parking and rest areas - my method | Hi Marcos I only tag highway=rest_area if a formal rest area sign exist. (commonly a tree and picnic table graphic) In any case I create toilets and picnic tables as separate objects. And I distinguish between formal or not, amenity=parking also based on a sign (commonly a white/blue “P”) Please be aware that most of my work is on remote Australian roads where many stopping places are not formal and often not paved. Cheers |

My workflow method... | Hi and thanks for your comments. In an effort to streamline things I had started by clicking on the imagery on top of the Viking map. It seems though that my current method of scrolling through the images with Geeqie is better/faster than Viking. I can see the image full screen in another workspace. If anything launching the browser session from Geeqie is a the more desirable thing. I could certainly construct a URL for that, but pushing the lat/lon into an existing session would be more useful. That I don’t know how to do! |

Roadside Rest Areas in Australia | Mateusz: I have started creating Campground features at the location where the signs are. The “Name” being “NO CAMPING - Sign” or similar. The “Operator” is the authority of the sign (council, national parks etc) and the “Allowed Access” is No. This is in addition to any other features at that location. I hope this will be a good starting point. |

Roadside Rest Areas in Australia | Is there any point specifically tagging for signposted “no camping” and/or “no overnight stays in vehicles” and the like. I realise (per above) that is partly defined by omission of tourism=camp_site, but definite negatives may be handy for the end user. |
