Hi,
I have a list of 200 emergency marker locations along 22km of the
Puffing Billy Railway which were provided to me by the railway with
permission to include them in OSM.
I've been reading through https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import -
most of which appears to be geared toward larger imports and using
publicly available data with various licenses. The data for my import is
not publicly available, and was provided to me when I asked to import it
into OSM.
I've searched overpass-turbo and there are no
highway=emergency_access_points, name~"PBM", or ref~"PBM" near the list
of nodes I have to import. This indicates that none of the nodes are
already mapped.
Based on the example file on
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM_file_format I've converted the
emergency marker list into xml, the start of which looks like:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<osm version="0.6">
<node id="-3" lat="-37.907468" lon="145.36039">
<tag k="ref" v="PBM003"/>
<tag k="highway" v="emergency_access_point"/>
</node>
...
In JOSM I can import this file and merge the layer. I'm intending to
then upload this with appropriate an comment noting that the data was
provided by Puffing Billy Railway with permission to include it in OSM.
I'm proposing to import this as a one off, single change set under my
existing OSM username.
Is this a reasonable way to do this import? Is there anything else I
should do?
Regards,
Kim
