Anyways, there is no point of talking about who first, last, only etc. All approaches using closed commercial software are pointless for OSM - it cannot be reused. Everything can be done with open source so that all code/algorithms are open and clear and there is no need to pay piles of money f

Hi Tomas, Agree, the primary reason I gave these links is not to promote any specific form of (closed source) software or workflows, but because the documents illustrate many of challenges involved, and may give ideas for others of how to approach certain problems regarding generalization. M

Hi Tomas, You do realize the 1-2 years is well after the 2013 date that the Dutch Kadastre started to publish their work? As to Lithuania, I can't speak for your country, but your Swedish Baltic brethren actually adopted the Dutch Kadaster's approach, including the developed models through a

AFAIK, in the osm-carto style there is no generalization on live data for performance reasons (because of continuous data updates via minutely diffs). There are some precomputed / extracted data files though, some of which contain generalized (simplified) data. These are all "external" sources:
