Artwork Type

Open paulklie opened this issue 1 month ago • 7 comments

Closes #2125

I copied most of the implementation from SCEE (https://github.com/Helium314/SCEE/pull/796) by @vfosnar, with some modifications:

  • [x] 1. Migrated to compose
  • [x] 2. Resorted elements based on current usage numbers (most popular at the beginning)
  • [x] 3. Replaced some images that were not in public domain, or had licensing conflicts.
  • [x] 4. Added license information for all pictures
  • [x] 5. Removed landart.

I removed landart for the following reasons:

  1. It is quite rare, with less than 0.3% of artwork_type uses.
  2. Since landarts are often visible from space, I suspect there is a higher likelihood that they are already mapped by editors using satellite images. Thus an even smaller portion of the remaining unclassified artwork, would be landarts.
  3. It has the possibility of being mis-tagged instead of the more popular man_made=geoglyph. Explaining the difference between these two seems beyond scope.
  4. A, comparatively large portion of landarts are relations, and are thus not included anyway: While landarts only count as 0.3% of artworks, they count as almost 14% of artwork relations.

I see that it is a draft - what remains to be done? Do you need some help?

Pretty much just testing, or giving feedback on the selected images.

Can we also add support for artwork_type=street_art ?

I think it could work, I think we would need to title it as "other street art". Have an idea for picture? Since this category is quite wide

Yeah, "other street art" sounds good. Perhaps this picture is somewhat representative (can't really be put in other categories): https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:Painted_hand_water_pump_in_Zagreb,_Most_mladosti.jpg

I have the feeling this might be hard to recognized when scaled down for smaller screen sizes.

Perhaps crop the prominent part of it? Other examples (also on that wiki) that I've had is likely even harder to recognize.

On the other hand, most of street art matches on wikimedia commons are mostly graffiti, mural (with few installation and mosaic), so I've given up searching in that way after few dozen pages... If I know what to search for, there are few more matches similar to that image on commons (see e.g. pimpmypump).

E.g. maybe this one has better contrast?

Or perhaps looking if something else already mapped in OSM as street_art which has picture would suit it better? https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/2fjc
