Hi all,After doing 2 broadcasts, 1st being a test. Fortunately, some good feedback. For the 2nd broadcast, i used the white board, and was able to draw out and try to explain in picture-form what the problem is.
So now, for the next one, I will be able to further get into it, and try to hammer out all the objections, and hopefully it will be able to produce more ideas. :) I haven't heard back yet from the latest ideas, as it looks like osm2shp is still in the works. as well as osm2csv. I still need to earn what the capabilities are for RoadMatcher, as well as what the limits are to JOSM with looking at duplicates. The only other application i know of which can successfully merge CSV files is GED. GED From Ancestry.org project, where each entry has a unique ID number, however, there is smart matching where it links First/Last names and Birth/Death dates and relations / spouse/kids, to try to identify ancestors. So it copies the information from 1 contact and adds them to another, then removes/merges duplicates. ... i'll try to contact to makers of that program, perhaps they have an idea. Oh ya, for the contacts example, it looks like gmail will have the contact-sync soon. Perhaps its more difficult then i thought? Cheers, Sam Vekemans Across Canada Trails
