I'm just starting a project that will create a load of data for OSM, but will be done off-line based on a static copy of planet.osm.<br><br>What I want to know is how to create that data so that it is most easily imported back into the main database.<br>
<br>It will comprise a lot of new buildings and garden fences but will also comprise plenty of other things (road re-alignments, new roads, open spaces, etc) and will be created by a team of people tracing from aerial imagery.<br>
<br>So faced with planet.osm and surrey.osm how can they best be merged?<br><br></blockquote></div><br>Hello,<br><br>some people have been doing some kind of merges in France. One is the BMO import which had an incremental road import. <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/BMO">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/BMO</a><br>
Also for Corine, we spent lots of time looking at overlaps and I suspect some extension of those techniques could be used.<br><br>Emilie Laffray<br>
