Hi talk-ca list, i got word that the address data for bc isnt yet available (and like NRCan for GeoBase & Can Vec, no timeline.
It isn't a 'NO' so thats good, but what that means is that is fine to go ahead and import everything else, then once its available, import it.

Although the BC is working on this in through such programs as AddressBC Web www.addressBC.ca http://www.icisociety.ca/address-bc/news.htm thanks for your enquiry Paul Quackenbush Head, Base Mapping Products GeoBC Crown Registry and Geographic Base mailto: [email protected] phone (250)952-6548 Fax (250) 952-4188 From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Sam Vekemans Sent: Tuesday, December 16, 2008 11:49 PM To: GEOBC SERVICEDESK ILMB:EX Subject: GeoBase Import to OpenStreetMap project Hi, I am working on this GeoBase Import to OpenStreetMap project, and would be very interested in meeting in person with someone here in Victoria. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/GeoBase_Import This is the main portion of the discussions that the group is now discussing, and it would be great to get your input, and the perspective from GeoBC. As i understand, a few times a year, the provincial government datasets get sent to GeoBase, so then the full Canada dataset can be updated. Currently, just the road names are available. I was wondering what the time frame is for the house numbers to be available, as currently only Yukon, Alberta and Nova Scotia has a complete set, as part of the NRN. I do look forward to hearing from you soon, Regards, Sam Vekemans Across Canada Trails _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
