Hi guys, Actually, I've found it difficult to understand where to get all the data available (until last weekend!). I was disappointed when I got my hand on the Canvec .osm file and found out that there were neither roads nor hydrography.
So, I would prefer having all the hydrography - and roads - in the Canvec version (instead of having to get the roads somewhere, hydrography somewhere else, and the rest of it in the Canvec file!). I would find it much easier to get one zip file with a complete coherent mapping content (and I guess I'm not alone in that case...) Cheers, Daniel Ps: Another concern... Some of the Geobase NHN watersheds are so huge that I have serious doubt about common system's capacity to work with those files. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Sam Vekemans Sent: November 2, 2009 21:25 To: Frank Steggink; Yan Morin; Talk-CA OpenStreetMap Subject: [Talk-ca] GeobaseNHN-to-osm.bat Hi all, re: geobase -linear_network_flow & canvec's single line watercourse I think that (the water direction arrow) is the only feature that isnt available in CanVec, so i think that it will be fine to simply run the geobaseNHN-to-osm script where it only converts that 1 file. (its useful for whitewater maps) Re: waterbody I know that Yan already loaded the area in Quebec, which is great. So im wondering if it should be omited from the canvec version, and a python script be used to convert ALL geobaseNHN (as well as LNflow (or SLW)? Or should we use the canvec version of it? An idea is to just have the canvec script include it, and prefix the file name with "EXTRA_" Thoughts?
