As reported previously, sometimes the RoadMatcher is thinking roads that intersect at 90 degrees are a match, and is leaving them out. There are a number of these that I'll have to go back and insert. As I work myself north towards Fort McMurray, I'm finding myself in the more developed areas. I've just hit the southern limits of town, in a residential subdivision. There's a circular route called Belgian Green in the subdivision that I have converted from my GPS trace, which has not been matched to the GeoBase data. I'm going to leave this alone for now as an example. From my recollection, the GPS trace represents a more accurate depiction of the roadway than the GeoBase data. Here's where OSM data is going to surpass GeoBase. The question remains though, how to teach the RoadMatcher to recognize that these two circular routes are the same roadway? http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=56.65477&lon=-111.32785&zoom=17&layers=B000FTF James VE6SRV _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
