Dear Eugene, Thank you for looking at the data.

For areas with highres imagery we can just copy the tags and use a polygon for the school grounds. > Question: is the SCHOOL_ID attribute an official ID that we can use for the > ref=* tag? Or is this just a database primary key ID? Yes the SCHOOL_ID is an official reference number corresponding to a a Region/Province and School Division. Is the ref=* tag the correct place for this? My proposal is: 1. Subset the data into smaller chunks say 500 schools for each file. 2. Prepare a list in the wiki to download the data. 3. Wiki gets updated if someone will edit one file by adding his username in the table. 4. In JOSM, load the data a separate layer from the OSM data. Edit/trace school grounds, buildings, foootways in the OSM layer. Copy-paste tags from the deped school layer to OSM layer. Assign a changeset a specific comment for this upload. (This is also possible in P2). 5. Update the wiki by adding the changeset number if the data import is finished. Make sense? For DepEd, we will proved an extract of OSM schools data as a shapefile. -- cheers, maning ------------------------------------------------------ "Freedom is still the most radical idea of all" -N.Branden wiki: http://esambale.wikispaces.com/ blog: http://epsg4253.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ talk-ph mailing list talk-ph@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph
