Here's Montgomery County in case you're up for sorting through it:<br>

And I think it's more in keeping with the spirit of OSM community<br>
involvement to a.) run a conflict detection between<br>
OSM-user-delineated buildings and UVM-SAL classified buildings, and<br>
b.) import to OSM only those footprints that haven't already been<br>
user-drawn. The OSM import docs are pretty clear about giving priority<br>
to users over batch imports.</blockquote><div><br></div><div> Personally, I'm most interested in discovering how you're planning on doing the conflict detection between the incoming data and existing OSM data. The import list has been interested in something like that for a long time and we haven't really had something that did it right.</div>
<div><br></div><div>It sounds like you've covered the most important parts of the import guidelines. Since this data covers lots of areas I think it would be most useful to convert these shapes to OSM and offer them in chunks for local community members to upload in chunks. Of course you could do your own area.</div>
