hi, would you be able to share the python script? I dont think it would be that hard to do, afterall, Dale (Ibycus) was able to convert the data from shp files).
So i think it's a matter of just setting the script to convert and add tags which would line up with mkgmap. osm's equivelent would be 'contour=minor' contour=major' etc. I have the whole list if anyone wants it. i can add it to do list :) although i dont know pythons innerds, i do know how to run the script on the command line :) cheers, sam On 9/29/10, Bégin, Daniel <daniel.be...@rncan-nrcan.gc.ca> wrote: > Hi Michael, > > I understand your need and I did some tests.
