Hi! We have got a good source for import: The Maa-amet gave permission to use their data in OSM! http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Maa-amet
This source have been available for the community since 2009, and there were extensive discussions on the local forums. Couple months ago I developed a set of tools which ease manual verification of the data after processing which was extensively discussed and very welcomed by the local community. Neverhteless, I was pointed out that I am still missing a letter to imports@, and thus here it is. Using their cadastre I have already imported address data for existing buildings, and now importing new bulding which was missing in OSM. With address data, of course. So far I got: (1) data holder approval (2) local community approval (3) separate account for import (4) description on Wiki and DWG is aware of my actions. So, in brief: * Import type: with full manual validation * Source: Maa-amet WMS layer (2013) and address Database from 26.12.2012 * Status: In progress * Validation tool: http://osm.svimik.com/btrace_verify.php * Import account: http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/SviMik_import * Forum discussion: http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=11750 * Special tags: source:addr=Maa-amet 2012, maaamet:ETAK=*, maaamet:orig_tunnus=* * Maa-amet DB reference: It is possible to match the records by IDs maaamet:ETAK=* and maaamet:orig_tunnus=* Manual validation: This is NOT a blind mass-import. Each building is reviewed and confirmed manually. So it should be a good, clean import. Here is the screenshot of validation tool: http://svimik.com/osmbtraceverify.png Recent import changesets: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/15549454 http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/15545477 http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/15544289 -- SviMik _______________________________________________ Imports mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/imports
