Hi. I echo the "It obviously isn't perfect, but it's a great step forward and I'm happy to manually fix things once the import is done."
Some observations... I never used polygons before but I think I have got my head around it on the dev box - thanks for setting it up. Will know for sure when I start seeing updates after it goes live. I must admit I found some of the polygon highlighting inside JOSM counter-intuitive. e.g. When I highlighted a meadow outer, it highlighted the area outside the meadow rather than inside it. This might be related to the large meadow that was split. The difference between farm and meadow seems arbitrary where I checked - browsing osm wiki I guess most meadow will turn into farm - but if there is Irish preference to e.g. tag pasture as meadow pls advise. I have distinct landuse=residential for each estate I mapped. I just used simple continuous way areas with adjacent estates almost touching. I might use this import cleanup as opportunity to go the 'refined' route which if I understand correctly is: - create individual ways for each individual border between adjacent areas - create relation of all ways that make an estate border. - tag the relation with estate name If I have misunderstood pls advise. One last thing, it is a signficant change so would recommend a blast to all (recent) Irish mappers via internal OSM mail ...just like was done for the license change...to bring everyone up to speed before the live import. I for one only came across this list recently. Good luck with the import, I'm looking forward to it. - John.
