Things I'd like to see from our collaboration with GeoBase. Some of these things my be harder than others. But we can't get there if we don't plan where we are going. I hope that you'll add your thoughts here and in the wiki.
NRN added to OSM without clobbering OSM contributions. And in such a way that future NRN updates are easier to incorporate to OSM than the original import. Geographical names data base. Make generous use of the is_in tag to help with indexing. Canadian boundary data in OSM. There is no reason for Canada to remain an undifferentiated mass of maple syrup and poutine. Let's have provincial (etc.) boundaries. Hey kid, want a WMS server? GeoBase has aerial imagery for us. In some places it is higher resolution than current YWMS. If only we had a WMS server to use it in our editors. Block level addressing in the Karlsruhe style where GeoBase provides addressing data. National hydro network. Include this in OSM. _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
