Extension to which languages ?[Quelltext bearbeiten]

5. extension of the database for more than 11 languages. Which ones?

May I suggest dawiki. We have just launched a project that aims to add coordinates to our articles. --C960657@dawiki
Ok, your language is registered for the next extension. Kolossos 08:24, 16. Mär. 2007 (CET)Beantworten
itwiki? We are one of the +100.000 articles wiki :) 87.0.30.211 12:26, 1. Aug. 2007 (CEST)Beantworten
At itwiki we have a statistic: [1] so because we can not read italiano, we only see http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Geobox_coordinate with 49398 usages for really interesting, unfourtunally this looks old, not linked to geohack and so not proved. This was the reason for not reading itwiki. Now we could also read Template:Geobox_coordinate_comuni, but will this give us enough new informations in relation to the work? Or do you have other templates we should use? Kolossos 14:58, 1. Aug. 2007 (CEST)Beantworten

Commons images layer[Quelltext bearbeiten]

Could a layer be made out of Commons images in the style Google Earth is doing with Panoramio images? There are now thousands of files in Commons:Category:Media with locations, tagged with the usual templates. --Para 16:17, 17. Mär. 2007 (CET)Beantworten

Do you know commons:Commons:Geotraging? There is a visualisation tool. We have a problem to ranking images, on articles we can count the letters, but what can we do on images? An other problem is to handle the images. Kolossos 19:55, 17. Mär. 2007 (CET)Beantworten
You probably mean Commons:Commons:Geocoding, featuring Dschwen's WikiMiniAtlas? As great an example as it is of a project built from scratch using free material, I prefer the Google Earth interface. I think all images deserve to be plotted. With Google Earth, the program takes care of busy areas and doesn't show everything from further away. The criteria for which images are shown at first seems to be rather random though. If it can be controlled and if it's really necessary, Commons images could be ranked by things like inclusion in Commons:Category:Featured pictures, Commons:Category:Quality Images, Commons:Category:Pictures of the day, by having been chosen in a Commons gallery, or maybe even by date of upload. Would it be possible to make a quick and simple kml from the dumps to see how much ranking is needed?
Handling images shouldn't be a problem: they can be plotted as icons such as , and the description can link to the images inline using thumb.php. Credit and license could be mentioned in the description if we choose to parse that from the data as well, or the page could be thought of as just another Wikimedia project, where credit and license can be seen by clicking on the image. --Para 21:28, 17. Mär. 2007 (CET)Beantworten

Of course, I mean Ceocoding. You can ask Benutzer:Dschwen for the datas. My problem in Google Earth is, that when I use:

<Icon>
<href>http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/eb/Y4110043.JPG/120px-Y4110043.JPG</href>
</Icon>

it works fine, but if I use:

<Icon>
<href>http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/thumb.php?f=Unisphere-cc.jpg&w=50
</Icon>

I get a mistake. So I think I must encrypt the path to the thumb-file and thats not so easy. You can try your luck and take the SQL-file from this project, there we also save the name of the first image in each article. So I also what a solution in the past but without luke.... Kolossos 23:16, 17. Mär. 2007 (CET)Beantworten

Thanks, you bring me to an idea to use wget and thumb.php to solve the problem. So I can use an other server and don't loading the Commons-Server too much. Kolossos 11:13, 18. Mär. 2007 (CET)Beantworten
I parsed the commons dump myself and made a quick KML from the decimal coordinates: commons-20070224-geoloc-dec.kmz. It seems to work alright, though there are many maps which I doubt many people are interested of, plus I didn't bother converting the other coordinate types. To make this useful for photo traveling, we'd have to split them in folders based on some categories. Have to talk to Dschwen about that then.
There seems to indeed be a problem with using the & character in KML files; I tried to replace it with different entities but nothing worked. That's not a problem in the descriptions however, since they are just HTML.
If we can make this work, it's probably best to make the feeds on the toolserver, since then the filepath of the files can be found from the toolserver database and we won't need thumb.php anymore. --Para 13:26, 18. Mär. 2007 (CET)Beantworten
It looks nice. I hope you have more time from experiments than I in the moment. I think the problem is not so the "&" its more the "*.php" so I believe Google Earth see this and think that it couldn't be a picture (security risk). For more than 10.000 entries I believe, it's better to use database and networklinks, should I send you some source-code of my Networklink-solution? Than you should send me a short E-Mail. Kolossos 17:03, 18. Mär. 2007 (CET)Beantworten
I just parsed the rest of the templates using Geohack, and there's only about 3000 placemarks in the last Commons dump (commons-20070224-geoloc.kmz). But when tagging gets popular, there will no doubt be much more than there are geocoded Wikipedia articles. I can start looking at the dynamic version, alright. The category separation especially is intriguing; I was browsing the images through Google Earth and there are some that in my opinion should not by tagged, but you never know, there's always someone who wants to see them there. --Para 23:01, 18. Mär. 2007 (CET)Beantworten

There we go, the above issues have been solved and everything's working fine. Geocoded Commons images are now visible on GeoCommons. Thanks for all your help! --Para 03:16, 1. Mai 2007 (CEST)Beantworten

Co-ordinate templates[Quelltext bearbeiten]

Can someone confirm which templates are used to extract co-ordinate information from the dumps. I presume that {{coor}} is used, but are any other templates extracted? Apologies for my lack of Deutsch. 80.229.219.31 19:56, 10. Apr. 2007 (CEST)Beantworten

A similar question: How/when is the database updated from Wikipedia? In other words, if I add a {{coor}} tag to an article, when can I expect it to turn up in Google Earth? 62.16.187.218 15:19, 24. Jun. 2007 (CEST)Beantworten

Lists of coordinate templates in each wiki is available from en:Category:Coordinates templates and its interwiki links. The supported and recommended ones are mentioned in geographical coordinate project pages or style manuals.
Databases for services outside Wikipedia are updated using the database dumps at http://download.wikimedia.org/, which are updated every few months. The services update their data from those when they notice a new dump available and parse it into their systems. With Google Earth for example, the previous update was in January-Februray this year, according to tests on the English Wikipedia. Google themselves say it's one to three months. --Para 15:41, 24.

Icons/Colors/Font size[Quelltext bearbeiten]

It is not better if we have different colors and placemarks for different sectors? I mean, landmarks have still the same color (orange) and icon (flag) also if they are taken from different sectors (military, cave...). I suggest to differentiate them more (ie. military landmarks could have swords or similar).

Another strange thing is having the states' name which are smaller than cities' name: it is against the standard cartography style... 87.0.30.211 12:26, 1. Aug. 2007 (CEST)Beantworten

I know that we can better in this part of the work, but we are a little bit dependent from the google earth icons, which are more useful for commercial usage (no swords). Free icons are rare. At the end of http://tools.wikimedia.de/~kolossos/wp-world/info.php (it needs a little bit time to load) you can see which types we extract with the help of categories and so on.

Another thing that I don't understand is how the articles are shown: I mean that several times there are first cities ones and after country/administrative divisions ones. And this is incoherent, IMHO. (As you can see, I had made an account!)Rufus T. Firefly 16:05, 3. Aug. 2007 (CEST)Beantworten

The articles are filtered according to the articles length, this is neccessary because 2 reasons: in english it is difficult to extract good populations values and it is difficult to decide what's a important landmark, for instance a airport or a church? So the base of the used method is, that about a important thing the people write more than about unimportant thing and it is easy because I have only look at one value with is easy to extract. Incoherent is the result, but I don't see a big problem there. (Thanks for your account, it is better than to talk with IP.) --Kolossos 17:16, 3. Aug. 2007 (CEST)Beantworten
Another one could be the linked pages to the article, I think. In this way things like Germany will probably be more important than Berlin.

Update from French Wikipedia[Quelltext bearbeiten]

Hallo,

On the French Wikipedia, we have recently re-worked the coordinate system by using a new unified template, fr:Template:Coord. It is now used on more than 50000 articles, and a few thousand articles still use the old templates, which are being replaced.

I'm wondering if this has any effect on Wikipedia-World ? Currently the box on top-right says only 894 articles are being indexed on the French Wikipedia or 67768 "with duplicates" (what does it mean ?). I would be interested to know if this has changed.

Postcodes / Zip Codes[Quelltext bearbeiten]

I notice that many locations on wikipedia include postcodes or zip codes. Though these vary in approach. For instance, articles for Australian and US locations use the full codes, while UK locations use the area parts of the postcode which link to other wiki pages detailing the members of that area part, so this request may not be that feasible for all instances. But as geocodes for postcodes are sought after data, would it be possible to include postcodes that a location is within in the sql output file, assuming that the data is available?

Updates to the sql dump files?[Quelltext bearbeiten]

I apologize if I'm not doing this correctly, I only speak english but I can't seem to edit this page on a non-german wikipedia site =]

I was wondering if the data for the sql database is regularly updated and if so, are the dump files available on the article page also updated regularly?

Secondly, I see there are a lot of KMZ files available, however, there doesn't seem to be a way to simply query for articles near a given lat/long and recieve a geo-rss feed of results (say the closest 25).

Suggestion for a new tool: Misplaced coordinates spotter[Quelltext bearbeiten]

Thanks to the interwiki links, this tool would take the coordinates of an object as described on several wikipedias, calculate the center of mass, and compare each point to check whether it is completely out (more than X kilometers from the center of mass).

100 kilometers might be a good value for X. One may argue that for instance Brazil is such a large object that 100 kilometers is not enough. Let's say there are 1000 such large objects, and now compare with the 100000 or so geolocalized objects: that's 0.1% of all. I bet the proportion of false positives will be low. Does not matter much anyway because the potentially misplaced articles will be checked and fixed by humans.

What do you think about it ? Thanks! Nicolas1981 12:16, 27. Dez. 2008 (CET)Beantworten

on OpenStreetMap hosted on toolserver is mentioned CC0 licence (public domain). But the OpenStreetMap is licenced by ODbL licence. Can someone please repair this? Thanks! :-) Xkomczax (Diskussion) 22:47, 25. Nov. 2013 (CET)Beantworten

Rendering of objects on toolserver's version of OpenStreetMap[Quelltext bearbeiten]

One more thing: on OpenStreetMap hosted on toolserver are some important things missing. A lot of landuse=forest is missing (for instance here - but are present on "normal" OSM) as well as some other elements, which are on the map for a very long time (= there is no problem with fresh data). Can somebody have a look?

Thank you

Procedure for adding more wikipedias as sources[Quelltext bearbeiten]

There are more wikipedias than the ones listed as sources here. Some of these have will have templates with coordinates as well. What procedure is in place to add the information in these wikipedias? In my particualr case: How will the information in https://fy.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kategory:Berjocht_mei_ko%C3%B6rdinaten make it to the map? Mysha (Diskussion)

When mistakes are encountered in the represented data - most likely incorrectly placed links on maps - what's the procedure for getting them corrected? Mysha (Diskussion)

Adding articles to the map[Quelltext bearbeiten]

How do articles get added to the map. I'm working on iswiki. There are lots of articles that show up on the map even though it doesn't have any GPS coordinates in the articles. And then articles that have GPS in the article but don't show up on the map. --Steinninn (Diskussion) 21:34, 11. Nov. 2022 (CET)Beantworten
