Hi everyone Following on from our discussions at last night's monthly meeting can I propose the following as a way forward?
Traffic Signals Import as nodes and then gradually transfer relevant data to adjacent traffic signal nodes,then deleting the import node as and when folk are editing in the area. I think the only data we need to add is the usrn number. At the time of import we add a FIXME note with instructions on what to do on each node Trees We do this on an area by area basis, deleting the existing tree nodes along highways and replacing with Amey data. The data looks good as far as positional placement goes and the other data looks pretty comprehensive. Jerry, who des have some expert knowledge in this area, has suggested this approach supplemented with a survey to check the accuracy of the species description. I don't think we have either the human resources or expertise to do the follow-up survey and I think we'll have to rely on the accuracy of Amey. Overall this approach will be slower and more human-intensive but works around our lack of programming skills to do a mass extract compare delete import On both issues I'll contact Amey as to how they propose to release data for additions and deletions. Regards Brian
