Looking at the history of the objects, it looks like another mapper used Bing to map out the road network on Apr 14th, then you added CANVEC data on top of this on the 15th, so nearly everything is now duplicated. Question: Did you download the existing data for the town when you made your edits, or did you just upload the CANVEC data? When importing data, you need to make sure the data you're importing isn't going to conflict with existing data. Download the existing data, make your additions or changes, then upload the end result.
As for the buildings, Richard's suggestion of the "orthogonalize" tool is the best. It has the keyboard shortcut of "Q". It will take your best guess and square off all corners to 90 degrees. Keep in mind that if there are any other angles, like a wall that is 45 degrees with respect to another wall, this tool will try to square it off and really mess it up. In cases like this, I'll temporarily split the way such that I have the parts of the building that are all square to each other in one way, orthogonalize that, then combine the ways back together. -----Original Message----- From: Frank Cox [mailto:thea...@melvilletheatre.com] Sent: Sunday, April 15, 2012 11:27 PM To: talk-ca@openstreetmap.org Subject: [Talk-ca] Beginner questions I seem to have somehow ended up with duplicate streets, side-by-side. So the obvious fix would probably be to delete one of them, leave the other, and name and classify the one that's left. Is this correct? _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
