Thanks for catching that, James. It looks like Doug Seaborn did this as part of 
Ryerson University’s November BC2020 mapathon event. I wonder if he’s still 
with the university and if he’d be interested in the March 29 event. I’ll reach 
out next week.

Seems Durham already had a project created for it:

If you let us know the time and date if one or two of use are around we can
run an eye over the work as it is done.  Technical term is validation
basically it is to give feedback to help with the data quality side.

Thanks, James. I added one building to project 116 with request for review. We 
may not have time to set up  a wiki to support the specific building tags to 
use for the Durham Region policy challenges (e.g., access to fresh food or 
financial bank machines), but will give it a try. The goal is to “add meaning 
to the geographic objects” (https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/about) the 
students will be mapping on March 29 based on their local knowledge.

Re: [Talk-ca] Cleanup of addr:country, addr:province, addr:state

2018-03-09 Thread Pierre Béland
Matthew, 
Tu fais du travail très louable. En même temps, il est important pour certains 
éléments de connaitre le contexte local. Chaque province a ses règles au niveau 
des noms et il y a du ménage à faire. Par exemple, il y a eu un import massif 
de noms à partir de la base GNS. Ces données ne sont pas toujours de qualité.  
On y retrouve des codes inutiles. Par contre, cela aide à repérer ces éléments 
pour les traiter.  
Peut-être laisser cette responsabilité à chaque province. À noter aussi que les 
collaborateurs québécois ont leurs propres listes de discussion et sont peu 
présents sur cette liste.

So I've tidied up the addr:province/state tags, now using only 
addr:province, leaving anything that would be generally considered 
"correct" either spelt out in full or using English provincial 
abbreviation as you might use in a mailing address. Also left "Quebec" 
(no accent).
I would rather like to clean this up further, however, I have stopped 
just at tidying up things that were mis-spelt or had inconsistent case.

Is there any view on where to go next?

These are the current counts:

is addr:province even needed? province boundaries are  pretty well defined
and could be dropped
