It's the default value for CanVec when the data is not available. So why is it being imported if data is not available? . but alas, this is OSM, and it is possable to remove it. Duh. But it doesn't mean you should just because you can. I'm asking whether they should be removed, not whether they can be removed. ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca

In fact, when tidying up links I often remove the annoying little 0-0 address ranges because they add nothing to the dataset. --G -Original Message- From: Nathan Edgars II nerou...@gmail.com Sender: talk-ca-boun...@openstreetmap.org Date: Tue, 21 Dec 2010 22:09:35 To: Tag discussion, strategy and related toolstagg...@openstreetmap.org Cc: Talk-CA OpenStreetMaptalk-ca@openstreetmap.org Subject: Re: [Talk-ca] [Tagging] 0-0 address lines On Mon, Dec 20, 2010 at 9:56 PM, Sam Vekemans acrosscanadatra...@gmail.com wrote: ... and the reason for having a '0' was to show where (geometrically) it will be.
