Hi all,
I've been spending some time today working on restarting the Toronto
building import effort which seems to have stalled a while back (I got
distracted, sorry!).
What I'm proposing to do is essentially just to finish off the building
import that was started over a year ago in Ontario, though just within
the bounds of the City of Toronto. That larger import, at the time,
never reached the central parts of the city and there are about 55,000
buildings that can still easily be imported from the ODB.
There is an outline of the proposal here (
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Toronto_building_import )
And I've uploaded some task-level OSM data to GitHub (
https://github.com/Nate-Wessel/TO-building-import/tree/master/tasks ) if
anyone cares to inspect it.
Hopefully this import process will address most of the concerns raised
about the initial import, including those I raised myself ;-)
Anyway, this email is just to notify y'all that I've been working on
this again and to start the necessary discussions and get any feedback.
I'd love to begin to move forward in the next couple of weeks if there
is support for this effort here, and on the imports mailing list. Please
let me know what you think!
Best,
