[Talk-us] GNIS - All Feature_Classes Imported?

2010-02-10 Thread Mike Thompson
It seems that not all GNIS Feature_Classes were imported, at least not in Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado. For example, in this area (http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=40.4038&lon=-105.52128&zoom=15&layers=B000FTF) there is a prominent rock formation called "Twin Owls". It is shown on t

I somewhat glibly asked "what should the height spec be" and I think the answer should be "orthometric heights based on WGS84 and the current associated geoid model". When converting to feet there is the wrinkle of US survey feet vs the international foot. This matters in state plane systems, bu

It appears that there is a systematic error in the summit elevations in OSM, at least in Colorado. For example, Longs Peak is listed in OSM as having an elevation of 4340 meters (14,239 ft). The topo map has it as 14,251 ft. I have noticed the same type of issue with nearby peaks. I
