開始使用 OpenStreetMap.org
審閲於 2015-07-12
在這一章節,我們會一步一步學習如何瀏覽開放街圖網站,檢視地圖,以及帳號使用者帳號。之後你有自己的使用者名稱和密碼,你能開始貢獻第一個點到地圖上面。
瀏覽開放街圖網站
瀏覽地圖
-
主要的事情是你可以看地圖,移動地圖要按滑鼠左鍵,按住按鈕,然後在附近拖拉 (請見下圖)。
- If you have a mouse with a scroll-wheel, zoom in and out on the map by turning the wheel. If you don’t have a scroll-wheel, use the + and – buttons on the upper right corner of the map. (see figure below)
-
To search for a place, left-click in the box labelled “Search” on the left side of the page (see figure above). Type in the name of your town or village and press Enter. A window should appear to the left of the map with the results of your search. Click on the location that looks like the one you want. The map will automatically move to the location you chose.
觀看不同地圖樣式
OpenStreetMap contains geographic data from all over the world. Although it is a single database, the data can be interpreted and styled in different ways. To see this in action, let’s look at various map “styles” available on the OSM website.
-
按地圖視窗右側的圖層按鈕。
-
Click on the different style options for the map. Notice how the map changes with each one. The transport map, for example, emphasizes transportation routes on the map while the cycle map emphasizes cycling routes. All of the data to make this possible is contained in the OSM database.
建立開放街圖帳號
添加你的第一個節點
- Now that you are logged in with your username on the OpenStreetMap website, you can use the iD editor to add your first point to the map.
- Move the map to a place that you know very well, such as your town or neighborhood. A good idea is to ensure your home (or your neighbour’s home) and workplace are drawn and given the correct address.
- 放大到你想增添節點在地圖上的地方(或許你附近的某間餐廳或雜貨店還沒被畫出來)。
- Just above the map on the left, there is a tab named “Edit” with a small triangle besides it. Click the small triangle. You should see a menu drop down.
-
按下「用 iD 編輯(瀏覽器內編輯器)」。
-
線上編輯器 iD 應該會啟動。看起來的樣子會是這樣。
-
You can add a point to the map by clicking on the button named “Point” at the top the window. Then click on the map where you would like to add a new point.
- Select from the menu on the left what type of location it is that you are adding to the map. You can then fill in the appropriate form with the location’s name and other information.
-
To save your changes, click the “Save” button at the top. Since this is your first edit, you may prefer to play around with the editor. Don’t save your changes unless you are sure they are correct.
- If you do click Save, you will be asked to provide a description of your changes. Then you can click “Save” once more, and your additions will be saved to the OSM database!
The iD editor is a fantastic way to easily edit OpenStreetMap, and you can find out more about using it in the iD editor guide. You can also play the walkthrough which is a great and interactive manner to discover the editor.
However, in the JOSM section we will be looking at a standalone application that offers many more features. Feel free to continue playing with iD. Once you have more experience contributing to OSM, you can choose which editor - iD or JOSM - you like using the best.
總結
Congratulations! If all went well you now have an OpenStreetMap username and password, you know how to navigate the OSM website, and you have your first understanding of how to add points to the map.
