Note that the GRB data mentions it's "voorlopig", and often, the data shows an offset from parcel boundaries. At those places, I would expect the boundaries to follow parcel boundaries (and I expect parcel boundaries to be of better quality). 2016-06-01 19:01 GMT+02:00 joost schouppe : > very tru

Well, it depends on your definition of vastly :) (I haven't looked at the size of the differences yet) I was talking about municipal borders (admin_level=8), postal codes as in your example are a wholly different beast, one I wouldn't want to tackle right now. But yes, they have a lot of things st

Hi, I'm not sure they can be vastly improved, it probably depends a lot on what boundary. In that understanding that there is lot's of stuff attached to those boundaries that shouldn't be there. So when you are working to improve boundaries, you'll need to address plenty of those cases, and that

Hi, It would be a fairly trivial task, don't think we need import approval from upstream for a few thousand single nodes. It would be a bit like importing VELO nodes (bike sharing). The license of this DAE data is open. I've made a quality assessment tool to compair VELO nodes from VELO website

RIP Marc. So I understand the geometry of the municipal boundaries could be vastly improved. I'm guessing the easiest workflow would be to load just the geometry of the municipalities and just the OSM municipalities in JOSM, then merge the nodes of the OSM municipalities to the external data. Aft

Personally for Flanders I wouldn't worry to much. Lets wait maybe a a year or 2 to get the municipals time to correct/update their borders in AGIV (GRB). But form the things I compared, I found the current borders to be are rather good. I'm going to assume they are rather old too. As such they h

Hi, I got a question about municipal boundaries in Belgium. I had a look here [1], but it seems to be lacking detailed information about how this data was added to OSM and what the source is. I do remember seeing some info about this, but we should probably have a bit more formal documentation, ri

[EN] Hello, The "Ligue Cardiologique Belge / Belgische Cardiologische Liga" just issued a set of 2000 defibrillators (DAE) in Belgium in the Brussels open datastore http://opendatastore.brussels/en/organization/liguecardioliga (csv or xls) It would be great to import them in OSM... There are now
