I'm not sure I would 'purge' but generate a mapping of geobase id's to existing OSM ways. We could then take that mapping and add 1. Add the geobase id to the real osm database along with any other geobase tags we like 2. Exclude those nodes from the bulk import of the rest of the geobase data. > 3.

I would not try to reimport OSM nodes from the spatial database back into OSM, just update/add tags if required. > > Cheers, > Sam > Steve _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
