Earlier today I opened my data file and did a "simplify" on all the polygons. That really trimmed down the number of points. I did a couple spot checks to see if this adversely affected the accuracy of the data and I didn't see anything that really stood out as being problematic. If there are no other objections or input (I haven't heard any new input since last Friday) then I'll start uploading these polygons (manually using JOSM) later this weekend. Any duplicate areas or POI will be merged or will be left alone if the data looks to be of better quality. Thanks for everyone's input. - --Eric -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQGcBAEBCgAGBQJTjm4tAAoJEB/kgVGp2CYvgJ0L/3oMZWQVpsaxXEI4ol/TUtqD CMbWNobmE0qsYRzuoNrE/VdwjTFfQB1DMySpJCWX4z4MsMhQGLfA3Ju0nl4daHSc cNQxSjv5+EXZbZshmu4fDchE+Skk5LYXDTkgFapukspovg78stlHq4iEG+j468Bb laNrhX2DWsEH1MV0fYHaCr9PFzAipYsn8qRHHwa8C5NCJi5IvFLNcD2fLovJr3Ng Wwb1C3hTLslouK+w+1zKO/Z/8smJvmqBF5sB3BGWJuI+YzOtupyxgPiNz7hL+UFu LNdzZ0btIW+lQA9VfSi9tZyS3KNgqUex3/NO1vCxaFr9qb2mwvtT0954jwR1Itsw WKtE6fadLtLS4AbuP3HxC36r2yEn91Q6qNpo83ZG35GFy6C43ccjCpUcr/QdSnyW 6+AQfe4WTUecHjVMFyt+WKUDmbJLqxKkfJgpeoNXsglGCyt9AiZ+8hooUVSLyw1R dWP5JYAUt9V4l7tgPKKtNYwfIylkYmKn2nVJImVjfw== =6F1N -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
