By the end, you were able to draw your own map in JOSM. 這些都是好的練習，而現在，我們準備要編輯開放街圖了。 In this section we will take a closer look at the interface of JOSM, and see how we can use it to edit the map on OpenStreetMap. 修改的循環 Editing OpenStreetMap with JOSM is similar to editing with the iD editor we saw previously. But because JOSM is a desktop application, it works a little bit differently. The process of editing and adding to OpenStreetMap with JOSM will always be as follows: Download the current map data from OSM Edit it using Satellite Imagery, GPS, Field Papers, and notes as a guide Save changes to OpenStreetMap 下載 OSM 地圖資料 The first editing step is to download the data for the area of the world that we want to improve. Remember that you need to do this every time that you want to make changes to the map, because the map is often being updated by other users. Click on “File” in the top left corner of JOSM and click “Download from OSM”. This will open up the download window. You can access this window more simply by clicking on the download button, shown here: When the download window opens, you should see a map. If you don’t see the map, click on the tab marked “Slippy map”. Use your mouse to pan and zoom it to an area that you know very well, such as your hometown or neighborhood. The controls are the same as in the JOSM map window. The right mouse button lets you drag the map, and your scroll wheel allows you to zoom in and out. Sometimes if you are working on a notebook computer it can be difficult to scroll in and out. Working in JOSM is much easier if you have a mouse, but most modern notebooks allow you to scroll using the touchpad. Draw a box around the area that you want to download. To draw a new box, click on the map, hold your left mouse button down, and drag your mouse to create a box. Release the mouse button to finish drawing the box. When you are satisfied with the size and location of the box, click “Download” at the bottom of the window. JOSM will get the data for this area from OpenStreetMap and open it in your map window for editing. 加入圖層 If you followed along when we added our first points with the iD editor, you remember that beneath the map data there was a satellite image that helped us identify objects on the ground. This imagery was from Microsoft Bing, which generously provides its imagery for OpenStreetMap users to reference while contributing to the map. To add the Bing satellite imagery in JOSM, click “Imagery” on the top menu of JOSM and selecting “Bing Sat.” If you don’t see Bing Sat on the Imagery menu, you may need to activate it in the JOSM preferences. Go to Edit -> Preferences and click on the icon that says “WMS TMS”. You may need to click on the down arrow to find it. Click on “Bing Sat”. Then Click “Activate”.

The main window you are already familiar with - this is the map window, and it is where most of the action takes place. Here you will view, edit, and add to the OpenStreetMap data. To the right of the map window are a series of panels, each of which has its own function. Typically when you first install JOSM several panels are shown by default, such as Layers, Properties, and Selection. When you select a point, line, or shape in the map window, it will be shown in the Selection panel. Information about the object will be shown in the Properties panel, and the username of the author of that object will be shown in the Authors panel. These panels can be opened or closed by clicking on the various buttons on lower left side of JOSM. Above these buttons in the upper right are tools which change what you can do with your mouse. You are already familiar with some of them, the Select tool and the Draw tool.

If you check the box in this window, your username and password will be saved and you won’t need to enter them again in the future. Click “Authenticate”. You will need to wait a few seconds for your changes to be uploaded, and then you are done! You have edited the map on OpenStreetMap.

JOSM 修改流程

In the previous section you installed JOSM and began drawing your first points, lines, and shapes. You added presets to these objects in order to attach information about them. By the end, you were able to draw your own map in JOSM.

這些都是好的練習，而現在，我們準備要編輯開放街圖了。

In this section we will take a closer look at the interface of JOSM, and see how we can use it to edit the map on OpenStreetMap.

修改的循環

Editing OpenStreetMap with JOSM is similar to editing with the iD editor we saw previously. But because JOSM is a desktop application, it works a little bit differently. The process of editing and adding to OpenStreetMap with JOSM will always be as follows:

Download the current map data from OSM
Edit it using Satellite Imagery, GPS, Field Papers, and notes as a guide
Save changes to OpenStreetMap

下載 OSM 地圖資料

The first editing step is to download the data for the area of the world that we want to improve. Remember that you need to do this every time that you want to make changes to the map, because the map is often being updated by other users.

Click on “File” in the top left corner of JOSM and click “Download from OSM”. This will open up the download window. You can access this window more simply by clicking on the download button, shown here:

When the download window opens, you should see a map. If you don’t see the map, click on the tab marked “Slippy map”.

JOSM Download Dialog

Use your mouse to pan and zoom it to an area that you know very well, such as your hometown or neighborhood. The controls are the same as in the JOSM map window. The right mouse button lets you drag the map, and your scroll wheel allows you to zoom in and out.

Sometimes if you are working on a notebook computer it can be difficult to scroll in and out. Working in JOSM is much easier if you have a mouse, but most modern notebooks allow you to scroll using the touchpad.

Draw a box around the area that you want to download. To draw a new box, click on the map, hold your left mouse button down, and drag your mouse to create a box. Release the mouse button to finish drawing the box.
When you are satisfied with the size and location of the box, click “Download” at the bottom of the window. JOSM will get the data for this area from OpenStreetMap and open it in your map window for editing.

Click on “Bing Sat”. Then Click “Activate”.

JOSM 之旅

Now that we’ve downloaded OpenStreetMap data and added the Bing satellite imagery, let’s take another look at the interface of JOSM.

JOSM layout

The main window you are already familiar with - this is the map window, and it is where most of the action takes place. Here you will view, edit, and add to the OpenStreetMap data.

To the right of the map window are a series of panels, each of which has its own function.

When you select a point, line, or shape in the map window, it will be shown in the Selection panel.

在地圖上看看你的修改

Open your internet browser and go to http://openstreetmap.org/
Move the map to the area that you edited.
You should see your changes now appearing on the map! If you don’t, try pressing CTRL+R to refresh the web page. Sometimes the map doesn’t update properly and needs to be reloaded.
What if you don’t see your changes? Don’t worry - it may take a few minutes for the changes to be shown on the map. Also, check your additions in JOSM to make sure that you added them correctly.
