More nice stuff from Frederik. He is now providing additional formats for Canadian extracts of OpenStreetMap data. If I remember correctly, these are updated daily. I have taken a quick look at http://download.geofabrik.de/north-america/canada.html and found the following:
For each province and territory: - "stock" osm.xml extract - osm extract in pbf format - osm extract as a shape file Thank you, Frederik! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Frederik Ramm <[email protected]> Subject: Canada Shape Files I'm not on the Canadian talk list but if you think that this might be of interest to readers, you could forward them the information that I have now configured the Geofabrik download server to make OSM shape files available for the Canadian provinces/territories (it used to only have OSM extracts before). As with the other shape files on the server, they are somewhat limited because they don't have multipolygon support; this is due to the fact that multipolygon processing requires a increased processing effort that we can't afford on the download server at the moment. I'm looking into fixing that in the future though. Bye Frederik -- Frederik Ramm ## eMail [email protected] ## N49°00'09" E008°23'33"
