Re: [Talk-ca] Question

Hi, Thanks for the feedback! It helps a lot to have information from real world users. I looked into the data briefly. The data that _has been_ entered in OpenStreetMap looks correct. However, much data is not available. A brief explanation of what is happening: Postal codes are potentially

Canada Post also regularly changes Postal Code locations to remain the master of the postal codes and be able to resell their 5000$/year database( https://www.canadapost.ca/cpo/mc/assets/pdf/business/pc_latLong_specs_en.pdf). They have also sued geocoder.ca for collecting user postal codes, which

Pier Luc, Nous ne pouvons importer systématiquement dans OSM les Codes postaux, Poste Canada prétendant avoir un copyright la-dessus. Mais il est possible pour une adresse particulière (un node avec clé addr:housenumber) d'y ajouter aussi un code postal.  On retrouve aussi des lignes

Re: [Talk-ca] Question

Post codes are put in one at a time. They aren't all there. If you could help clean them up that would be useful. Zip codes are different and belong in Donald's land. Cheerio John On Fri, 27 Apr 2018, 5:01 pm Pier Luc, wrote: > Hello, I live in Quebec City. I

[Talk-ca] Question

Hello, I live in Quebec City. I tried to use OSMand (based on OSM) in my City using offline mode and the OBF file of the Province of Quebec. Every time I search an address it can not find it! Sometime it offer me other address, sometime not. It's like if only a tiny part of Quebec's address had

[Talk-ca] Question on CANVEC

Hey all, I have a quick question on data that has been imported from CANVEC. I have been doing some work on the North-West side of Thunder Bay in Ontario. Part of that has been attempting to revamp the land use designations there. At the moment, the use has been entered via CANVEC import, but a

Re: [Talk-ca] Question on CANVEC

Just delete and recreate. There have been several discussions on this list about the data quality of the landuse data and if it should've been imported in the first place (no data vs. bad data). Working with gigantic multipolygons is indeed a pain and I don't think there is any value to preserving

Re: [Talk-ca] Question on CANVEC

I agree, that the large polygons, are a pain. I would second the idea of deleting and recreating the wooded areas from imagery. I don't think I would go so far to say all of the canvec imported data is bad. i.e. Lakes, rivers, roads, address data, train tracks, etc. I must from

Re: [Talk-ca] Question on CANVEC

Just to clarify, I was only talking specifically about the landuse data. Much of Canvec is great! Harald. On Jul 22, 2014 10:21 AM, Andrew andrew.alli...@teksavvy.com wrote: I agree, that the large polygons, are a pain. I would second the idea of deleting and recreating the wooded

Re: [Talk-ca] Question on CANVEC

I agree, Harald. There are lots of things that the CANVEC adds that's perfectly fine, if somewhat off position. Easier to edit those into position than to try to create them whole-cloth. On Tue, Jul 22, 2014 at 2:27 PM, Harald Kliems kli...@gmail.com wrote: Just to clarify, I was only talking

I have seen the wiki for relationships http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relations but have some questions about it. I am hoping that someone can clarify them for me. If I want to have something like a bus route as a relation on a way but the bus route does not follow the entire length of that
