Hi, With lots of help from Ian Dees, and Lars Ahlzen and servers from US OSM chapter, a new image layer is available in JOSM that includes the parcel boundaries, house numbers, and ownership info for most of Massachusetts.
If you map in MA, update your images sources in JOSM, and activate the "MassGIS L3 Parcels" layer. If you are just curious, the tiles can be directly viewed here. http://tile.osm.osuosl.org/tiles/massgis_parcels/#17/42.58150/-71.58480 The OSM data in Massachusetts has many imported conservation land, schools, parts, areas. While the meta data on is usually good, they actual parcel boundary is not very accurate. This can be used to correct. The address data shown only includes the lowest street address number for multi address parcels. This data is the primary source soon to be released MassGIS address layer. Any suggestions on cleanly showing multiple address with mapnik would be welcomed. It is a good way for us to start getting some experience with how the MassGIS address data looks. The mapnik XML file, download, and postgis scripts are here. https://github.com/jremillard/osm_massgis_tiles The source of the data is MassGIS L3 Parcels layer. http://www.mass.gov/anf/research-and-tech/it-serv-and-support/application-serv/office-of-geographic-information-massgis/datalayers/l3parcels.html Thanks Jason. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
