Hi Everyone
The sparse selection of North American lakes at low zoom levels on the
mapnik layer has become embarrassing. Could we get the file used to
generate the coastlines at low resolutions updated.
Lakes missing:
- Southern half of Lake Winnipeg
- Lake Manitoba
- Almost all of Great

Maybe I missed something here, but who exactly is User:CANVEC

their edits have been confined to Ellesmere Island, southeastern Quebec

Canvec imports.

I have been away from the internet for much of the summer and am now

I was browsing through Winnipeg Transit's new PDDL API and experimenting

a wildcard search to generate and XML file with all addresses on a

I see, my bad. I'm just a little frustrated about the lack of

Hi Everyone
The Canvec data for MB provincial park boundaries is horribly inaccurate
and this bothers me greatly. The government of Manitoba offers good
boundary data and a bunch of other cool stuff though the Manitoba Lands
Initiative, which I believe we can use, but I've never converted
it.

Thanks Sam, that saves me a lot of work. Is all the tainted data
being removed Friday, or just yours?

Let me clarify, will the so called tainted data still be up for the near

to save street names I gathered with a pen and paper? It doesn't look

Hi everyone
I'm at home recovering from dental surgery, so I've had the opportunity

I've racked up a list of errors is Canvec data. We've probably gone over
this before, but how do I report errors and out of date information in

Hey everyone
I am presently preparing a careful import of Canvec data into Mantario
area. I have stumbled across a trail that appears to be a GPS track. The
problem is that while this trail did not overlap with the old old low
detail lake data, it conflicts in some areas with the Canvec data.
I'll second what Richard said. This whole argument of talk could have
been avoided (or at least delayed) if someone had tried contacting me
before I was accused. Perhaps I'm just upset but in my opinion it's
better to raise the issue with the user first than on a list. We don't
want another

Thank you. I apologize for any confusion.

Hi
When I tag government facilities, I put the name in the predominant
local language (English in Manitoba) in the name tag. Put the English
name in the English name tag and the French name in the French name tag.
But what about the operator tag? For example Winnipeg has a facility

I took your advice and went east to Ottawa. I assumed that Parliament
Hill would be a good model to follow. Sadly it is tagged exclusively in
English as is the Supreme Court. Perhaps someone with with better French

Hi
I've been looking at replacing much of vriemer's work in manitoba with
Canvec data. Even replacing one tile is a daunting task, so I thought
I'd ask the opions of others before I start work staring with Canvec
tile 062H10. What do people think?
Sam
Another thing we need to think about. Whatever you position on the
license change, it is doubtful vreimer will take the trouble to consent
to the new terms. So we should probably gat all his stuff removed anyways.

Hi
It looks like the NHN data is flawed because of the fact that the Lake of the
Woods passes through the US. I will continue with mapping as normal.
I notice that I am not the only one mapping the lake. I pay much more attention
to detail than others. Is that okay?
