Re: [OSM-talk] Tracing vs Import

One alternative way for selecting only roads that aren't present in OSM
would be RoadMatcher (
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Geobase/NRN_-_OSM_Map_Feature ), though
some programming will definitely be required, as the currently described
process process takes .gml at the final stage.

Doesn't seem _that_ complicated. I guess it's a choice between using
technology and doing manual labor (I know which one I would choose...).

You could import it as .osm but give it tags that aren't rendered /
known by anything. Then slowly move that over / delete / add data.

I did that for a large import in Iceland with great success.

I think some people have some merge scripts, but I've never had any
experience with that.

You can load both the current OSM data and your data into JOSM as
different layers, and then copy and paste your data into the OSM layer
and merge the resulting information.

[OSM-talk] Tracing vs Import

2010-08-08 Thread 80n
For some time I've been looking for an easy way to import some OSM formatted
data back into OSM.

It's not that easy.  This is what it takes at the moment:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/BMO

So I'm now contemplating the much simpler path of rendering the data and
then tracing.  But before I do that I really want to be sure that there
isn't a better way of doing this.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
