Some comments on what you're proposing to import
- landuse=greenfield, building=yes, building=garage, leisure=swimming_pool, barrier=wall, and entrance=yes is an odd set of features to import. Not that there's anything wrong with that. - Some buildings are missing, likely from the source data. - There is severe over-noding of circular features, e.g. 71 nodes in a 4.8m diameter swimming pool: http://maps.paulnorman.ca/imports/review/cigarral/pool.png. - Last time it was discussed there was no consensus that buildings should be imported split based on building plan data, e.g. http://maps.paulnorman.ca/imports/review/cigarral/building.png - The couple of building=garages don't actually appear to be garages - The landuse=greenfield is still a problem. I'd suggest not including that tag but just including the address information From: Ander Pijoan [mailto:ander.pij...@deusto.es] Sent: Monday, February 25, 2013 12:42 AM Cc: OSM Imports List Subject: Re: [Imports] [Talk-es] [Cat2Osm2] Tool for exporting Spanish Cadastre data in OSM suitable format Hi everyone, During this weekend some people of the Spanish community have been discussing in which cases would be suitable to import some things from Catastro to OSM. Everything that is imported from Catastro will need to be approved by the Spanish OSM organizers and it will only be uploaded with a special account, one for each of the 50 provinces, created for such purpose ("catastro_" + the province's name). It is compulsory for the uploader to know well the village he is uploading in order to be able to fix any conflict with the existing data and to complete Catastro's data for special buildings, amenities... Roads won't be imported from Catastro because they're much better in OSM, currently we will only focus on urban data (we will try to simplify a little bit more the rural data Cat2Osm2 exports). Also, the files will need to be validated with JOSM and made in small pieces (one for each urban block/square). We have made a test with a little urbanization from one of the Spanish list users for you all to see: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/15152422 http://www.openstreetmap.org/?box=yes <http://www.openstreetmap.org/?box=yes&bbox=-4.73691%2C39.98901%2C-4.72879%2 C39.99551> &bbox=-4.73691%2C39.98901%2C-4.72879%2C39.99551 I would like you to take a look at it, to see if it looks suitable for some villages where there was no information previously.

The word in Spanish is more like "altered". It doesn't matter if we get a 100% equivalent. Because of law issues -unrelated to copyright- original files directly from source cannot be shared. However, any transformation -including file format- gives full copyrights to the author of the alteration, which effectively makes them "almost PD+attribution". Law is strange, I agree :-) He definitely can share the .osm. -- Jaime Crespo _______________________________________________ Talk-es mailing list talk...@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-es -- Ander Pijoan Lamas Research Assistant, Deustotech Computer Science Engineer University of Deusto E-mail: <mailto:ander.pij...@deusto.es> ander.pij...@deusto.es Phone: +34 664471228 in: http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=162888312
