Hello Everybody, My winter OSM project is to merge all of the imported GNIS reservoir points in MA with the actual water ways. It is a manual process, I am about 60% through it. I have been getting very, very familiar with the GNIS data set. When I find a confusing, wrong GNIS point, or duplicate point, I have been sending mail to the GNIS administrator via the gnis_mana...@usgs.gov. It can take a couple of weeks for them to respond, but when the do, they send back detailed descriptions of what they found that often results in more corrections back in OSM. If you find a problematic GNIS node (especially natural feature), you should consider sending an email to gnis_mana...@usgs.gov as another QA point for OSM, rather than just deleting it.
Thanks Jason _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
