There's been a lot of talk about tools for merging/syncing/conflating data with OSM, so I thought it would be useful for us to discuss possible user interface designs for doing so. Because I'm somewhat familiar with JOSM, and nodes should be the easiest case (though not trivial), I've written up a short potential workflow for conflating nodes in JOSM. If we can't handle nodes then we'll have no hope for the much more challenging case of ways and relations!
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Conflation/Nodes I've never used a conflation tool before, so this might be an obvious approach to some, or perhaps an awful way to do it, but regardless I wanted to get it written down where others could improve upon it. I'd like to keep this focused on discussing the design of a user interface and workflow, as well as the technical details. -Josh _______________________________________________ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
