Hi all, On the talk-ca list we are comparing the differences & similarities between this project & the TIGER import.
I wanted to float the idea (to the general talk list) about importing the full data base that is available, not as shapes/ways/lines, but as nodes which show what map features the node represents. So for example, importing a park (in a mapped area) we would just show the outline dots of the park, and the user can connect the dots and show it the 'right' way osm-style. This would ensure that accuracy is there as well as alow updates as these updates would be directly ontop of the old one. These imported nodes would be then used as reference (like colour coded snap points) Is there a way that josm is able to allow the user to click on the space where the node is and select which node they want to use to attach the line/area/relation they are working with? Is there a way to make sure that these nodes dont get rendered? In the case of address range, what if these lines are shown as 1 side of the property outline?
