Hi Nick, The quality of these building footprints looks great, and it's the kind of thing I personally like to see imported because it's tedious to trace them accurately and difficult/impossible to capture them with GPS. And as you mentioned it can assist future placement of shops, amenities, etc.
However, from downloading and looking at a random area in JOSM, I'm seeing some problems. You can't tell from the renders, but many buildings are there more than once as separate overlapping objects. Example: - http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/153813132 - http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/153808317 - http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/153849919 It looks like the problem objects all have a 'sby:bldgtype' tag and no other tags, so it should be a straight-forward fix. I not exactly sure the best way to go about that, though. -- AJ Ashton _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
