Hi Steve, There is a lot of open data that could potentially be used from data.gov and state portals. http://www.data.gov.au/ https://www.data.vic.gov.au/ http://data.sa.gov.au/
Much of this was released for the govhack competition last month. No idea about the process of importing data but try and ensure that you add tags to say where the data came from, what licence it was released under etc. On Tue, Aug 19, 2014 at 3:50 PM, Steve Bennett <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi guys, > I'm working with the City of Melbourne on some open data projects. > www.theage.com.au/it-pro/government-it/an-open-data-vision-20140818-105d5n.html > > One thing we could do is import some of their data into OSM.
