<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The GIS department at the County of Grey, Ontario was interested in updating the street centerline data with our Grey County Road Data, which we believe is more precise, both in terms of centerline
placement and road labelling.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">I was thinking of using the JOSM Editor utility to bulk import the data. I read on the ‘Import process guidelines’ wiki that street centerlines can be very difficult to import. So, I am looking
for some guidance and opinions of the OSM community to know if this is a viable import project at the County Scale.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
