We could also imagine for example importing the weekly calendar of road workds done today by the AED administration and that could be integrated with OSM and helped improve much the routing of OSM ... and give OSM routing some advantages with respect to the competition (road work could be taken into account in the OSM routing and make it more convenient - as free service - than any other) > > They also asked if osm contributors would be interested in "diff" of > urbis data : what has changed in their data from date X to date Y. > This would ease the update operation between urbis and OSM (we also > suggest to make a diff between their data and what is imported in OSM). +1 > The CIRB is collecting those ideas, will write some internal documents > and continue the process internally.
