Re: [Talk-ca] Metrolinx: OSM Golden Horseshoe Address Data
If you need a HOT task manager. I am currently hosting it on tasks.osmcanada.ca. If you want to become a project manager just send me an email after you've logged in, I can set you as one.

Re: [Talk-ca] Metrolinx: OSM Golden Horseshoe Address Data
The issue has come up in Ottawa as well, some street names or incorrect, the city has been correcting them but there are some hundred to be changed when I spoke to the person at the city. CANVEC address import seems often to have been done by different people in different ways and in Ottawa many of the CANVEC version tags have been removed so you can't be sure if its CANVEC or not. It probably needs something like a HOT tile project over the city so that it can be gone over.

Indeed. I checked before sending my email, but I zoomed in a place where there is no CanVec address interpolations data, what I wrongly extrapolated city-wide. Sorry for both these irrelevant messages. Pierre ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
Re: [Talk-ca] Metrolinx: OSM Golden Horseshoe Address Data
Afternoon everyone, Metrolinx is looking at adding missing address ranges - either those that were never added in or those that are in new neighbourhoods. I believe they're also looking for problems where the street name on the highway doesn't match the address range street name due to spelling mistakes, different sources, etc. -Kevin Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

Which prompts the question as to what, exactly, did the people from Metrolinx mean when they expressed concern about "getting better address ranges than individual points". The current data is in address range format. So are these inadequate (either that they don't cover the correct spaces, are incomplete or missing) or are they looking for addresses to be attached to specific buildings?

Hello, I'm not sure this message will help, but just in case: here in Montreal, we have imported the address layer from CanVec data which includes the interpolations. Import is never trivial, but given your needs and the improvement of the service for all users it's probably a good idea to evaluate this dataset first. Cheers Pierre Le 12/01/2016 08:52, Stewart C.
