Re: [OSM-talk] JOSM plugin to import GeoJSON?
His Stefan Nice hack! But Shapefile remains an oldtimer with more drawbacks than limited field names; see [1]. GeoJSON (ascii) and GeoPackages (binary) are formats which are more suited for the job. I still have hope that JOSM will be able to read those vector formats too. :Stefan [1] http://giswiki.hsr.ch/Shapefile 2016-03-20 19:29 GMT+01:00 Stefan Baebler : > Hi! > > On Sun, Mar 6, 2016 at 12:56 AM, Stefan Keller wrote: >> >> I of course know Shapefiles but they are deprecated because e.g. they >> cut-off field names at 10 chars.

Re: [OSM-talk] Global high-resolution model of relief
I think this could be very useful, especially when working with rivers and streams. I am having trouble finding the actual link for downloading the data and/or connecting to the service.
