Hi everyone, 1) I propose some modifications at the CanVec OSM Map Features for buildings:
- CanVec Customs Post --> remove security=yes --> security is not an OSM tag - CanVec Municipal hall (point) --> replace building=municipal_hall for building=yes --> we already have amenity=townhall - CanVec Municipal hall (point) --> remove building:use=office - CanVec Police station (point) --> remove building:use=police_station --> we already have amenity=police - CanVec Railway Station (point) --> remove building:use=train_station --> we already have railway=station - CanVec Penal Building (point) --> remove building:use=prison -->we already have amenity=prison If you agree, I can make the changes in the wiki. 2) What are the CanVec Common tags. I propose the following ones. You can add yours unless there are somewhere in the wiki. - k="created_by" v="FME-CanvecBuildings2OSM" where v is the name of the script used to create the import - k="canvec:uuid" v="baff4218d4ff45d18c0643e63906aab9" where v is the BDG_ID CanVec attribute - k="canvec:source" v="Buildings_and_Structures_3.0" where v is the Canvec theme + CanVec version - k="canvec:datasetName" v="022A09" where v is the DATASET_NAME CanVec attribute 3) Do you known if point feature tagged as building=yes are rendered in Mapnik. It does not seem to be displayed ??? -- cheers Michel 2009/2/25 Sam Vekemans <[email protected]> > Hi, Sorry, but i already have the script to import all the buildings PLUS > all the other 10 sections, as part of the canvec2osm script.
