Hi, Great find Daniel ! To use directly the GeoTiff images in JOSM, you could try the ImportImagePlugin, but I haven't tried it. I put the EO1-ALI images from Earth Observatory online, in WMS and TMS, with the coordinates included in the GeoTiff files. Apparently, they were not georeferenced in

Daniel, The SRTM data has 90m cell size, while the CDED (from the Geobase site) has 30m cells (and 1m height resolution) which might rendered better contours. Best Regards, Brent Fraser On 5/27/2011 11:52 AM, Daniel Begin wrote: Bonjour tous le monde, I have generated a 30m and 31m con

Bonjour tous le monde, I have generated a 30m and 31m contour lines for Richelieu river and lake Champlain (using SRTM data). It fits the 30m contour provided by Jean-Guilhem but doesn't seem to fit pretty well the flooded wetland area provided by Pierre. Any idea if this data can be used (

Hi Pierre, The 30 m contour lines from tiles 031h03 and 031h06 (the shapefiles you gave), potentially connected to Richelieu river, have been imported, and put together in relation: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?relation=1602671 Clearly, it is not enough to estimate the flooded zone, for which so

Pierre, I can't comment on if the 30m contour solution is suitable, but if you want to extract the 30m contours, you could: 1. Use QGIS to extract 30m contour from *_FO.._1.shp files - load shapefile, Open Attribute Table, click on elevation field name to sort table by elevation value

Many osm volunteers have worked in the last two days to correct roads, complete Canvec import and add street names. An other task is to estimate the flooded zone along the Richelieu River and Missisquoi Bay in Lake Champlain. One simple approach to determine the flooded zones would be to use th
