War mit #Schwager #wandern. Gar nicht mal weit (4 km). Wollte "gucken", ob es gewisse Wege aus #OpenStreetmap tatsächlich noch gibt. (Spoiler: Nein)
Wurde letztlich eher eine Art Survival-Tour steile Hängen rauf und runter und durch Dornenhecken.
Habe jetzt Krämpfe, verkratzte und verbrannte Beine und eine gezerrte Schulter. Aber den Hunden hats gefallen. 🙄

AI/OCR for extracting opening times from image or website - does it already exists?

feddit.orgAI/OCR for extracting opening times from image or website - does it already exists? - feddit.orgOne thing that makes streetcomplete a bit of a chore for me is entering opening times: depending on where you are, you might have to specify it differently for every single day, resulting in a lot of typing. That is more time I stare at my phone and use my hands in an unergonomic position, leading to soreness in neck, hands etc. So I was thinking: Surely we are technically able to extract those data from an image? If I would have time to implement it (which unfortunately I won’t I think) I’d just try to find a prompt that works well, send it to an LLM like Mistral (bc. in EU), get the info back, let it get checked by the user and then enter it to openstreetmaps. That would require only me to provide my api token, which I would be willing to pay for (assuming my estimation of this being in the cents volume are right). Now: 1. Does something like that exist and I just don’t know about it? 2. If somebody is willing to try that out I can provide some example data, collect more and test it.

I captured ~1000 photos worth of street-level imagery for #Mapillary and #OpenStreetMap yesterday. My camera (Osmo Action 4) doesn't have a GPS receiver and so the whole workflow is cumbersome and takes a long time. Open photos in JOSM, use plug-in to correlate with GPX track from my bike computer, write tags to image headers, open images in Mapillary uploader, wait for processing (takes several minutes), slowly upload to Mapillary. I think this would be way better if I had a GPS-enable camera.

A feature I'd use on a digital map:

Finding a route from A to B, but instead of optimising for quick times or short distance, the user gets to specify how long the route should be.

eg I want to go FROM the entrance to the park, TO the exit of the park, on a route that is 5km.

Would be very useful for planning hikes, runs, cycles etc.

@Androidauth Well yeah, it's USER date. Sure, Google ToS allows them to use it probably alongside rights to your firstborn. But yeah, this is data created by users that didn't expect Google to use / train with.

btw for anyone reading this who has / is using Google My Maps:

Please use Umap instead, it's open source and there's a variety of instances you can choose from: wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UM

Or even better: contribute the data to #OpenStreetMap if applicable

wiki.openstreetmap.orguMap - OpenStreetMap Wiki
