Re: [Talk-ca] Street name upload

Quoting "Bégin, Daniel" :


Salut osmers,

Is there an easy way (an application of some kind) that can be used   
to transfer street name from Canvec street network/Karlsruhe schema   
to name tag on existing road network.


This release of Canvec.osm in Quebec area has addressing/street   
name, but manual transfer of street name on existing road network   
takes up to 95% of uploading time.


Any ideas?

Daniel





Michel's 1337 FME skillz? ;) (He used them for the original Geobase  
import after all.) Or maybe this is a good occasion to charter some of  
the Safe Software guys to help with improving OSM in their own  
country. :)

Ah, so we have new street name information in Canvec.osm files for
address nodes,  but we don't have the street names on the road
centerlines?

It's wonderful to have the addressing information available.  Even as
a manual task, finding and fixing the street name is much simpler than
finding and fixing all of the addresses.

This might be a good use of RoadMatcher.

-Use RoadMatcher to match existing roads in osm with the canvec.osm tiles 
with the names to produce a mapping of exisitng osm_id values to the id 
values in the canvec.osm file


-Write a script that takes each unamed road and grabs the way from the API 
adds the matched name from canvec.osm and uploads the new version of the 
way.










Any ideas?

Daniel
