Hi All,
As a guy that works with postal codes and carrier routing, Justin is right,
like the US, in Canada, Post codes are really just a sub-collection of
address codes that don't necessarily correspond with geographic areas. They
can be plotted on a map if you know the addresses, but they aren't
good

Hi all,
Canadian Geomatics posted this data set a few months back from Natural
Resource Canada.
It's Building footprints from Lidar or high res imagery.

Hi All,
I like the idea of imports, and think there's a lot of value of batch
importing - however we need to run a QA/AC for each. For Manitoba I think
the challenge is getting municipalities to sign on, and move their data to
the canadian open data portal (that is, if they have data or any
Woah, leave the list for a week to ski and it explodes!
I'm still sad there's no Manitoba Data (yet)
@John,
Yea, we had pretty good success having highschool students add in
attributes for buildings using walking maps! We concentrated on Wheelchair
accessibility, but ended up adding addresses,

As far as I can tell there's a few of us in Manitoba. I have a small group
that gets together every month to map out something! I know a few mappers
in sask too, but nothing organized.

Hi All,
For teaching high school I worked with Rob Langston (who just got the
Canadian geographic award for teachers!) to find out what would A - be
worth mapping and B- would fit into the curriculum of what they were going
for. We went with mapping out what had wheel chair accessibility for

Hi all,
I'd love to do more imports - I have a group here that we get together to
do mapping as well as know some locals. Of course we'd add a wiki to the MB
page to show the project ect. From what I can tell there's no stats can
data for manitoba or sask though!

Hi All,
I found the combo of overpass and qGIS was a really good combo specifically
for this sort of thing. Then you could export into R if you wanted to run
stats (qGIS has a pretty good stats engine too)
All you'd have to enter is the building tag as a search, and it'll return
the results.

Hi OSM List,
Last Friday I worked with one of my colleagues and a high school teacher to
map out some things on openstreetmap with high school students!
To do this we talked about what would work with the high school curriculum,
and with an OSM component. We agreed to look at something with built

Hi OSM'ers
I am working on adding buildings to OSM in Manitoba and have a few
questions. I was just offered an updated building footprint and address
shape file from the City of Brandon, and agreement that it can be used in
OSM. I understand that the license needs to be compliant with the OSMs
Pierre
That sounds exceptional! How wide range will the building footprints be?
Just wondering on the open portal not inclusive of OSM. Will it be for
certain areas like Ontario only, or the entire country? I have quite a few
colleagues that would be very interested in Manitoba for this!

Hi Jonathan,
I work with a GIS users group in Manitoba (MGUG.ca) and we were talking
about how to use OSM as a learning tool for high school students as well.

Hi Everyone and Julia
I'm working with Manitoba GIS users group (or MGUG) to increase OSM
literacy within our community, and work on HOT tasks as well as help
organize with Building 20/20. We have a number of governmental, private and
educational groups within our user group and I would like to
