Hi, The GRB building conflation is now in beta-testing. Join us on Riot ( https://riot.im/app/#/room/#osmbe:matrix.org - or through OFTC for IRC) if you want to be an early adoptor.
On the imports mailing list, there were some comments on the data model we used. In previous iterations, the toolset would at these tags to any building of which the geometry comes from GRB: <tag k="source:geometry:date" v="2009-12-07"/> <tag k="source:geometry:entity" v="Gbg"/> <tag k="source:geometry:oidn" v="2155715"/> <tag k="source:geometry:uidn" v="2440819"/> Glenn has simplified this to: <tag k="source:geometry:date" v="2009-12-07"/> <tag k="source:geometry:ref" v="Gbg/2155715"/> These tags make it easy to use the tool for detecting missing or improvable buildings, and for continuous maintance of the link between OSM and GRB. Now to keep the tool simple, we'd like to change all the objects that still have the old style tagging. Since that is an automated edit, one needs to follow the rules (as documented here https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct) I have written a little script to do this. It just does the simple cases, because the complicate cases are quite rare and can probably just be done by hand. Everything seems to work. You can download an example changeset (West-Vlaanderen) here: https://we.tl/t-eMdVhq239N The sript for the parser is here: https://github.com/joostschouppe/little-grb-parser/blob/master/parser%20xml.sps Starts with the Overpass query you need. Sorry, the code is written in SPSS. That's just the language I speak best. If noone objects (and I get some confirmation it doesn't have stupid mistakes), I will do this province-by-province or in smaller chuncks if necessary. It takes just a few minutes to get from download to upload, so I don't foresee any editing conflicts. <https://matrix.to/#/!SqvNXrBsvdGHYRyota:matrix.org/$1554407873121093ilEHM:matrix.org?via=matrix.org&via=roeckx.be&via=bsubway.net>I'll use my "joost schouppe import" account. I'll add a little section to the main GRB project wiki pages (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/GRBimport) about this edit and refer that in the changeset comments. -- Joost Schouppe OpenStreetMap <http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/joost%20schouppe/> | Twitter <https://twitter.com/joostjakob> | LinkedIn <https://www.linkedin.com/pub/joost-schouppe/48/939/603> | Meetup <http://www.meetup.com/OpenStreetMap-Belgium/members/97979802/>
