Hi Gert

I have a couple of issues regarding this import and I hope you don't mind if I'm going to try to clean it up. I wouldn't consider the import done yet.

I'm going to describe my issues here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Haiti/Tasks_and_Ideas/RadioTvStations
Let's follow up there.

Regards
Karl

Hi Gert

Could you post the changeset id(s) used  for the import?

Consider this carried out, 95% is actually imported, but there is room for

Improvement, as both studios and towers are all labeled "tower: communication" for the moment, and

a lot of accents got lost in the import. There are also a few doubles.

Hi,

to give more details, the data is hosted in Google Spreadsheets and the skin (+ link) can be downloaded from here: http://www.cartong.org/Files_for_public_download/Radio%20Stations%20Haiti.kmz

We are of course still updating; we mapped everything we could get hold of, but some of the stations are misplaced still and of course the attributes (operational etc ) are updated as soon as we get news. The list is now around about 230 stations, I do not think it will get much bigger, but we already noticed that some stations we had initally in there, actually ended up being the same and had just name changed etc; so just to give you an idea that the data is still in flow.

Let me know the best way how to feed the data to you, I can export as CSV, which will be static then, though, but it butchers up the encoding when I do that; unless anyone can give me a pointer how to avoid to do that? Best of course would be if there could be feeding from the kml.

Cheers

Sandra

    We've gotten confirmation from Sandra that we can import radio and
    tv station locations into OSM.
    Need to coordinate with Sandra to import the data, and keep it up
    to date and their db is updated.
    Can anyone stand up for this?

    Thanks
    Mikel

    Guys,

    IMS told me to go ahead and share the data, let me know what the best
    way is, especially as it is still in the process of being updated.
    We host it in Google Spreadsheet.

    Cheers
    Sandra

    Sorry guys,

    I have not forgotten about your request to integrate the data to
    OSM. I
    have re-send the request to autorise to Internews but have not
    received
    a response so far. However, as I have been informed by IMS, the
    organisation we compile the data for who are on the ground by now,
    there
    will be a meeting with the mappers + internews on the ground;
    therefore
    I hope I have a response soon.

    The good side of this, I have sent all questionable positions
    (many, as
    the Geocoding in the country side is not as advanced as in PaP) to IMS
    in the field and hope that while waiting for internews response we can
    clean up/adjust our positional errors.

    Thank you for your patience.

    Regards
    Sandra

    Towers are also present in many of the unclassified DMA maps too.
