OK... I had been using chunks of 2000, but will make it smaller. Hopefully that helps.

Date: Sun, 06 Mar 2011 12:12:00 -0500 In JOSM when uploading go to advanced configuration or the advanced tab and use upload data in chunks of objects. Drop the chunk level down to 400 or 500 and it goes much smoother.

You probably do this as well, but before running the validator, I step around the edge of the import and connect streams, powerlines, and anything else that I think needs connecting. The auto-fix on duplicate nodes just seems to merge the nodes but doesn't combine the ways. As you, I very rarely have found the need to import a road as previous GeoBase or other imports have already provided the same information. I simplify some features as well (streams and some lake shorelines mostly) but I try to remember to simplify before merging the selection onto the OSM layer. Simplifying later often gives the warning that you are deleting nodes outside the uploaded data area. If I get a conflict, this is where it happens. You do, however, seem to have much better luck than I have had on failed imports. On 4 or 5 different occasions, an upload has hung (sometimes for hours) and a cancel has resulted in nodes only (no way information) being uploaded to the server. This behavior is quite consistent. The result is 6-8,000 isolated nodes blasted across the import block. I've then had to download the area from OSM and manually remove each node. Rather frustrating. I don't know the ins and outs of the OSM backend, but could you be picking up errors at that point? JOSM never seems to "sort it out" for me. :( Sam L Kamloops _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
