Yes, yesterday I was fixing a bug in the software that caused some of the Suffolk StopAreas to not upload at all, they will be going live today (there's not very many). > We did spot one gremlin in the source data in the formatting of change > versioning which resulted in a small number of excess stops being imported. > We have discussed this with the DfT/Traveline and they will get it fixed at > some point but lets not wait for that.

I am not able to work around it, as the bug is in the source data I downloaded. On a review of more recent data, it appears that it was just that one download that had the issue. Downloading the data again should rectify the problem for future downloads. > Am I right in assuming we are only importing bus stops on this pass?

Yes, we were going to do the rest in a separate pass. Regarding recent discussions on accuracy of railway station data, eg (http://googlemapsfail.tumblr.com/post/170424479/only-one-of-these-is-really-a-railway-station), I'm assuming this data is sourced from NaPTAN, so care will be needed with that import. > [1] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/NaPTAN/Request_for_Import > > > Regards, > > > Peter > > > >> -- >> Regards, >> Thomas Wood >> (Edgemaster) > > -- Regards, Thomas Wood (Edgemaster) _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
