Re: [Talk-ca] Emergency Request for Tasking Manager Trainer
Thanks for catching that, James. It looks like Doug Seaborn did this as part of Ryerson University’s November BC2020 mapathon event. I wonder if he’s still with the university and if he’d be interested in the March 29 event. I’ll reach out next week.

Re: [Talk-ca] Emergency Request for Tasking Manager Trainer
If you let us know the time and date if one or two of use are around we can run an eye over the work as it is done. Technical term is validation basically it is to give feedback to help with the data quality side. Cheerio John On 9 March 2018 at 11:44, Jonathan Brown wrote: > Thanks, James.

Re: [Talk-ca] Emergency Request for Tasking Manager Trainer
Thanks, James. I added one building to project 116 with request for review. We may not have time to set up a wiki to support the specific building tags to use for the Durham Region policy challenges (e.g., access to fresh food or financial bank machines), but will give it a try. The goal is to “add meaning to the geographic objects” (https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/about) the students will be mapping on March 29 based on their local knowledge.

Re: [Talk-ca] Cleanup of addr:country, addr:province, addr:state
Matthew, Tu fais du travail très louable. En même temps, il est important pour certains éléments de connaitre le contexte local. Chaque province a ses règles au niveau des noms et il y a du ménage à faire. Par exemple, il y a eu un import massif de noms à partir de la base GNS. Ces données ne sont pas toujours de qualité. On y retrouve des codes inutiles. Par contre, cela aide à repérer ces éléments pour les traiter. Peut-être laisser cette responsabilité à chaque province. À noter aussi que les collaborateurs québécois ont leurs propres listes de discussion et sont peu présents sur cette liste. Pierre Le jeudi 8 mars 2018 23:27:46 HNE, Matthew Darwin a écrit : So I've tidied up the addr:province/state tags, now using only addr:province, leaving anything that would be generally considered "correct" either spelt out in full or using English provincial abbreviation as you might use in a mailing address. Also left "Quebec" (no accent). I would rather like to clean this up further, however, I have stopped just at tidying up things that were mis-spelt or had inconsistent case.

Re: [Talk-ca] Cleanup of addr:country, addr:province, addr:state
is addr:province even needed? province boundaries are pretty well defined and could be dropped On Mar 8, 2018 11:28 PM, "Matthew Darwin" wrote: > > So I've tidied up the addr:province/state tags, now using only > addr:province, leaving anything that would be generally considered > "correct" either spelt out in full or using English provincial abbreviation > as you might use in a mailing address.
