tracing cadastral parcels in JOSM).
Hi,
What is this french pdf extractor? Got any info, link etc?
This is the automatic import of the French Cadastre data
http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwiki.openstreetmap.org%2Fwiki%2FWikiProject_France%2FCadastre%2FImport_semi-automatique_des_b%C3%A2timents
is the best we get in English but I think there were some other translations of
the relevant tools when this was discussed on this list. The quality of the
rendered shapes leaves a lot to be desired, and people were simply dumping the
raw data onto OSM rather than following the French guidelines and manually
tracing with some human interpretation of the data.
http://www.remote.org/frederik/tmp/funnybuilding.png was an example Frederik
posted at the time, but there where many more.
