I still miss several of the points i mentioned earlier, in particular: - Tagging still looks vague. What you have on https://github.com/osmlab/labuildings/blob/master/README.md is just a list of OSM keys to use but there is no information on the values - like what set of values is to be used for building/building:use/amenity and what units/reference system are used for numerical values. This will need to be in the wiki and not just somewhere in the code so mappers can later look up how certain tags were generated. - Positional accuracy and actual compliance of the data with OSM mapping practice are still unclear. You observe offsets in https://github.com/osmlab/labuildings/issues/43#issuecomment-194957204 but make the assumption the data to import is accurate. This is highly questionable. With that volume of data and the connected amount of work it would be highly advisable to check it in a few places at least - if necessary sending out someone with a high precision GPS. Also important to check is for example if overhanging roofs, carports etc. are classified as buildings since these are not buildings within OSM. -- Christoph Hormann http://www.imagico.de/ _______________________________________________ Imports mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/imports
