Hi Sophie,
This mailing list is quite inactive. It's better to try and contact the
Dutch community on their osm forum:
http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewforum.php?id=12
AND is not the only data that gets imported in The Netherlands. They are
quite progressive and many sources like cadastre (BAG) are available under
liberal licenses.
I hope this helps,
Jo

Dear all,
I am currently writing a research project, at the University College
London, which focuses on the 'Impact of Imports On OSM User Engagement'.
The project is focused on the impact of the 2007 AND import in the
Netherlands, but it shall also address the wider impact of imports in
Europe and even worldwide. The reason for me emailing the Dutch imports
mailing list is because I want to include the perspective of the user in my
research - what do the people on the ground (particularly in the
Netherlands) think about importing data into OSM?
So far I have read through the threads of several OSM mailing lists and
have found the discussions particularly interesting. I'd really like it if
I could get feedback on a series of research questions as I'd really value
your opinion and thoughts. Any feedback is appreciated! Simple yes or no
answers or bullet points would be absolutely perfect - if it is at all
possible!
Research Questions;
Are/Were you for or against the AND data import in the Netherlands?
What have been the benefits and/or negatives of introducing the AND
import into the OSM database?
Do you think the AND data import has engaged the OSM user? If so, why?
Do you think the AND data import has affected the overall quality of OSM
in the Netherlands?
With the introduction of the Amsterdam 2007 AND import and the TIGER
import in the USA - is it more beneficial to import road networks?
Do you think that the AND data import has changed the role of the user?
For example, have imports required the user to edit and correct data rather
than collect their own information to upload.
If you have any other thoughts that you wish to discuss please contact me
on my email address: sophiekatesal...@hotmail.co.uk. I'd really
appreciate it.
Thank you for your time!
Sophie
Please note: I have had a similar discussion with the imports mailing list
- so I am sorry for any repetition!
