Alternatively you can spin that as a positive because now you have the ability to focus work on areas with the most need, importing bad data isn't nessicarily a bad thing, OSM can be thought of a refinement process of going from bad or no data, to good or data that has been traced from correctly positioned aerial imagery, and then you have everything in between. Obviously the better the starting point you have, the more you can skip some of the refinement steps. _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
