For your information, a specific task hab been created for this purpose: (Thanks to #hughwei ) #14 - StatCan Non-residential Buildings : http://tasks.osmcanada.ca/project/14 Feel free to involve into this project and happy mapping! Cheers. Bruno 2016-04-22 14:28 GMT-04:00 john whelan <jwhelan0...@gmail.com<mailto:jwhelan0...@gmail.com>>: Since you're looking to combine data from different sources I assume you know about the TB standards for addresses? I think they're mentioned here: http://www.tbs-sct.gc.ca/pol/doc-eng.aspx?id=16553 I'm not sure how those standards would map to OSM and if all the elements are there. Apols to the ca-talk this is probably more open data than anything else.

Some data belongs in OSM while other attributes might be extraneous. Other people on this list will also add their opinion on this issue I'm sure. If it's something being done en masse, it's always best to take an abundance of caution to not upset people at the errors that might crop up. If you'd like to break work down into smaller chunks, there are tasking managers available (including a Canada specific one) that help out with manual tasks. -Kevin On Apr 21, 2016 11:37 AM, "Ellefsen, Bjenk (STATCAN)" <bjenk.ellef...@canada.ca<mailto:bjenk.ellef...@canada.ca>> wrote: Hello everyone, Basically, what we would like to do is define a project for OSM to collect information about non-residential buildings. We would like to popose a list of what would be collected. We were thinking of identifying specific areas to start with.
