Dear all, I'm looking at this buildings import, https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Northern_Zambia_Buildings_Import
For the buildings It includes buildings near Fiwila, -13.9710, 29.6019, Zambia. As well as East (e.g. -13.9762965, 29.5746642) and West (e.g. -13.970185, 29.6203484) of Fiwila. In Fiwila, the import matches Bing/DG imagery, and the road matches those too. Hwoever, East and West, there is a clear offset of about 20m East-West. The wiki page doesn't say how the data was collected. The wiki page states "The main goal of this work is to not only do a large import of buildings (268k records) into Zambia, but set an example for how Akros and other organizations can *use field based operations *to contribute back to OpenStreetMap. *Data was verified by Akros Global Health contributors with assistance from the USAID GeoCenter's Remote Sensing Program*." (my bold). So any thoughts on whether I should go by the Akros data (and offset Bing/DG) or whether I should adjust the Akros import (in that area) to match bing? Many thanks! Bjoern
