Re: [Talk-ca] GeoBase tags
From: Andrew Allison [mailto:andrew.alli...@teksavvy.com] Subject: [Talk-ca] GeoBase tags Hello: Are the Geobase attribution tags relevant, should I leave them in or strip them out? There's no legal reason why you can't remove the attribution=* tags (or any tag, for that matter). My practice is to remove them when the source=* tag indicates that the source is geobase and I'm editing the way anyways. There may be other import cruft that you want to strip out at the same time. ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
Re: [Talk-ca] GeoBase tags
Maybe it would make sense to come up with a consensus of which tags can be stripped. I know that for the US TIGER data JOSM automatically removes the cruft when you edit a way, and we should have this for Geobase/Canvec, too. Harald.

Re: [Talk-ca] GeoBase tags
Personally, I haven't imported anything with a geobase tag, but I will remove them if I edit a feature with one. Do they serve any purpose during the import process? --G Sent from my iPhone On 2013-02-25, at 19:51, Bruno Remy bremy.qc...@gmail.com wrote: Instead of a filter in an editor, why not a osm-bot doing this job?

Well, actually it appears JOSM is already doing what I proposed: http://josm.openstreetmap.de/ticket/7915 I'm not opposed to a bot but someone has to create it. That's certainly not me.
