[talk-au] NSW/QLD Border
The MacIntyre river and others form the NSW/QLD border and for much of the border area there seems to be 2 ABS data sets, one that follows the river pretty well and one that doesn't really but uses less data points. What should happen in that case? You can see the descrepency in this map: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-28.6522lon=150.6372zoom=12layers=B000FTF ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] NSW/QLD Border
Hmm, interesting. Does anyone have gps traces for this area that could be used to try to work out which is better ? cheers On Mon, May 25, 2009 at 1:20 PM, Delta Foxtrot delta_foxt...@yahoo.comwrote: The MacIntyre river and others form the NSW/QLD border and for much of the border area there seems to be 2 ABS data sets, one that follows the river pretty well and one that doesn't really but uses less data points.

The rivers themselves are the border, and you can see that one ABS boundary follows the river better than the other. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] NSW/QLD Border
Also there appears to be 2 boundaries defining the same thing, one is from the ABS the other isn't sourced. http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-29.0185lon=148.9501zoom=12layers=B000FTF ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

If you are confident to do so merge replace them with 1 appropriate way based on the one that is more accurate, making sure to include all data relations from either existing way. If you are not confident to do so then perhaps you should be patient until someone who is has the time to deal with it. My initial confusion was over the 2 different data sets both sourced as ABS, I've been adding appropriate tags because I thought what you are suggesting is the right course of action but I didn't want to tred on any toes. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
