Hi Richard and all,

Plan is very important, somehow we will have to translate the ideas into tasks, priorities then put them in a timeframe. > > > 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. As we mentioned in others threads, NRN is the more difficult theme to import. Geometry matching is a hard task and can't be fully automatic. The maintenance will be easier althougth the original osm will not be associated to any geobase id. > > Geographical names data base.

Let's have > provincial (etc.) boundaries. Why don't we start with this one. It is light and easy to integrate. It will help to set the collaboration in phase ;). > > > Hey kid, want a WMS server? GeoBase has aerial imagery for us. In some > places it is higher resolution than current YWMS.

If we do not import all geobase id how can make the address model work ? > > > National hydro network. Include this in OSM.
