[Talk-us] Sevier Lake Anomaly
What I'm asking about is this anomaly in the area of Sevier Lake: "http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=39.0035&lon=-113.0895&zoom=14&layers=C";. What is up with this sudden change in terrain? I found it because I was going to trace Sevier Lake as a lake. ("http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sevier_Lake";) After a while I decided that since its levels varies so much, I would leave it to a local mapper. I did leave what I had traced so far, just not as a lake. There is an abandoned proposal to trace intermittent lakes. ("http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Intermittent_Lake";) Should this be revived? - Val - ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
Re: [Talk-us] [Imports] Imports, trails, POIs for National Parks
Hello, I have been importing data into National Parks mostly using NPS data (dataset from their libraries plus infos from the maps you get there) plus NHD for water and my own personal data. The most complete one I covered so far is Glacier NP. From my own experience, road sets from NPS are pretty accurate but trails are quite bad. They mostly look like someone walked the trail and uploaded their GPS tracks. Thanks, N. ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
