Hi all, For those of you who are waiting to see what kind of data will be available for when the CanVec Import happens, I can make Garmin Map tiles for your area.
1st to ask will get them made for your area. Just let me know that the NTS tile number is. (You can fined it on the geobase/canvec website.) http://geogratis.gc.ca/geogratis/en/product/search.do?id=28954 The map will include the full current OSM data area, as well as all of the map features included in the Canvec set. (there's about 80 or so different features). The maps will be stored on the www.acrosscanadatrails.com server. (and i can make a link on your area's wiki page for it). For those of you who are in an area which has not been processed with the GeoBase roads import yet, i can include the canvec version of the roads (a bit older, but still useful). It will be available as a separate transparent map overlay. Although you wont be able to edit this map directly, you can use it to find out what features are missing in the dataset, then work on the osm database as if the data was already imported. When i do get around to actually importing the data for your area, i'll make sure to put special care that i dont interfer in what you have already mapped. :) (that's partly why there is a hold up for me starting the import). I hope this will help you out. Thanks in Advance, Sam Vekemans Across Canada Trails
