Updates about the ODB import proposal Documentation: All the content regarding the current import has been moved to the Open Database of Building (ODB) wiki page [1]. The purpose of the page is now twofold. Provide a detailed procedure on how to import the data and to keep an inventory of what has been done/remains to do. The Canada Building Import wiki page [2] will keep the same name but its content has been modified to serve as a hub for all building imports, previous and current. I also added a section to describe what best practices are when importing/editing buildings (to be developed). Import: Regarding the import, I proposed the import to be done using the task manager on a Municipal basis for all the reasons mentioned here [3]. In order to make it work properly, the OSMCanada task manager [4] needs to be set up for a given municipality only after a contributor has identified himself as the local import manager. We also know that the task manager us totally customizable [5].
Now we need to discuss, amongst other things, of ... * Who will be in charge of setting up the task manager? * What optimal task manager's parameters should be to ease the import? * What parameters are required to review what has already been imported? * How to proceed when pre-processing is required? Proposals or suggestions?
