-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Paul:
Well, no dataset is 100% ok, and this applies to eHealth data as well. We can truly use the GNS data for the validation process once all the nodes are imported + local knowledge. I uploaded a convenient csv file of that GNS data so you and anyone can open it in JOSM with the OpenData plugin: http://ge.tt/3zjj9ko1/v/0?c Except for the nodes of the state capital cities, I haven't seen any GNS node that says that it is a capital of a ward or LGA. The RuralVillages.shp is just the name given to one of the files with places in the eHealth database, as they file them. You can read this hackpad that tells about the whole eHealth database: https://hackpad.com/eHealth-Data-Import-hKeQZhVqQeR#:h=Settlement-points (you can download the data for the Ajingi LGA here (it's from April 14): http://ge.tt/5Cg5Bfe1/v/0 ). If you want to check the RuralVillages file for the whole of Kano state, just tell me and I send it to you by email (it's from mid-May). Cheers, Rafael.
