So my interpretation is we save about 9% by simplifying? However does it mean we probably do need to verify the before and after manually? Would someone care to comment on if we would need to manually look at the before and after and if 9% savings would be significant? My personal feeling would

It appears the original discussion on talk-ca was missed by many. There appears to be an issue of local buy-in but I think for the moment we should first concentrate on the problems we expect to see. The building outlines we imported in Ottawa predated the Bing imagery I suspect. So first off

I found the building footprints to be very good. JOSM cleaned up most of the errors..I'm not sure it would be worth the risk to do more processing. Sometimes there were crossing ways, usually with terrace or buildings in the downtown core that need to be fixed manually. Which took a ton of time.

I'm on board with removing redundant nodes, as long as it doesn't affect actual geometries much. Also there are quite a few duplicated nodes in buildings. They can be removed in JOSM in one click before upload but better to do it at the source. On Fri, Jan 18, 2019 at 4:25 PM James wrote: > I
