The great thing about the OSM process is that this will fix itself. My approach for the US was to upload only counties that were completely untouched by OSM or that had only a few roads. As time went on, people would complain that I "missed" their county and ask for me to upload the whole data set, even when they had already done quite a bit of mapping. They asked because the TIGER data set had *so* much more content than they could ever do themselves. If the Geobase stuff is highly superior to the existing OSM stuff, I promise you that the mappers doing the OSM work will come to you and ask for the Geobase data. -- Dave _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
