Hi all, I have finally, got together the canvec2osm script, which now separates each rules.txt file into a separate sub-routeen for the script, so it's easier to look at.
http://sites.google.com/site/canadawikimap/Home/rulesTXT.zip http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=rP0soJiyFhapKZbRLYZ74zA&output=html and the PDF (it's a 6 meg file) showing the same thing. http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=rP0soJiyFhapKZbRLYZ74zA&output=pdf and you can download the program. .. however (for Richard Weait) i wouldn't recommend it, because there ARE known errors. and the Script is still in BETA. ... it's just that i cant constantly upload the new version after each edit. http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=3b30da6df507290219747bd91027d4dd9de794d9333c8264 Because there are 339 unique features, each with it's own debate. I felt it best that it gets shown on a spreadsheet. These Wikicharts are difficult to edit, and maintain. .. if it was only 20 features, then yes its easy. But with so many features, and the fact that it required me to edit the original program to make the fixes. .. using this Google Docs is MUCH easier. I'll include the program download.exe (for the next version) so then the script will automatically download the latest rules.txt files from my Google Apps website, and get the latest. So as soon as the Google Docs files are edited. .. the whole program will be updated. So it's just the relations between each file that need to be fixed up before that can happen. I decided that the folowing features will not get imported with this script. These features are highlighted on the Speadsheet with orange. -rivers ('cause it's included in GeoBaseNHN, which i'll deal with once this canvec2osm script is done) *waterbodies (same reason as above) *roads ('cause SteveS already did the magic) *building=yes nodes ('cause someone doesnt like it) *NTS Boundary polygon ('cause it's not needed, but only helpful for the person importing the area) *contour lines metric ('cause Kosmos already get contour lines, and a Garmin map will be made from them) *contour line imperial (cause it's imperial) *junctions 'cause it's just nodes, and aready covered with GeoBaseNRN .. accept keep amenity=ferry_terminal So anyway, for anyone who wants to help edit the chart directly, just ask. :) Hopefully there will be some volunteers who can go through the chart and list it as green. Cheers, Sam Vekemans Across Canada Trails P.S. Over the next week i'll be uploading more sample areas and stretching out bit further. Since the script is better. ... it's probably about 90% accurate.
