Hi, I'm working on an import for some UK postcodes. The import has been discussed at length on the GB-Talk mailing list, with no strong objections[1], and I have also created an import project page describing the process [2]. The scripts etc. are not up there yet, I'm still finalising them at the moment and once done they'll be up there with some sample data.
I would appreciate some feedback on what I've done so far and also some advice on how to proceed, as I am planning on running the batch towards the end of this month. Since this is the first time I have tackled a bulk import, I need some assistance on a couple of things Firstly, how to actually execute the import, I can generate whatever XML or other output that is required, but I need some advice as to what it should contain, how best to batch it up, and what the best tool to use to upload it is etc. Secondly what sort of QA is required. I can do some manual random QAing, and also comparing against what is already tagged in OSM. Not sure what else is possible/required. Thanks, Aidan [1] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2013-January/014358.html [2] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/ONS_Postcode_Import
