Hi John,Great work, :) So i'm working with Ian Dees, (who created) shp2osm and trying to figure out how to make this happen.
The CanVec shape files are similar, in that it's the same process of converting, accept that there are no duplicated to contend with. My approach is this: I can now convert the Shape file to OSM, i then have both the newly created OSM file, and the CurrentData.osm. ... i then, just copy and past the data to the osm layer. So the purpose is just to create an OSM file from the CanVec.shp file. What i still need to learn todo is automatically apply tags to this created OSM file. any idea? CanVec uses numbers instead of words like GeoBase does, so my script would have the # = osm tag. re: 9) shp2text to extract the columns I need in xml form 10) homebrew scripts to create standalone, matched, and unknown files from the geobase original 11) bulk_upload.pl to upload the new alone sections
