<div dir="ltr">Hi Walter,<div><br></div><div>Before I plan to upload the boundaries import data for Surabaya, I have received some feedback and helped by <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Capiscuas">Ivan Garcia</a> who has expertise in correcting boundaries and has previously worked with us in settling Jakarta boundaries.</div><div><br></div><div>The current raw file has the boundary relations already, which I think is quite accurate. I will send the link to the raw gis data when it's uploaded on github.</div><div><br></div><div>In regards to the current boundaries in Surabaya, we had contacted those who mapped them previously but they were unable to provide the data license / approval and I believe our data which is formally attained from Indonesian government is more accurate. </div><div><br></div><div>I might need to clarify that HOT Indonesia, which is where I work now, has not focused its work yet on the issue of data import due to some problem attaining the data from Indonesian government and in explaining about the sensitivity of it to Indonesian OpenStreetMap Community. Thank you very much for your input, we plan to work more on correcting this issue following OpenStreetMap procedures of validating existing data and improving data quality in the incoming project.</div><div><br></div><div>Best</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Sep 27, 2016 at 1:17 AM, Walter Nordmann <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:wnordmann@gmx.de" target="_blank">wnordmann@gmx.de</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">i read "Using JOSM to import and upload the new data after reviewing each administrative level." in your wiki.<br>

Sorry, but that is not enough - to me. Did you ever edit/create boundary relations before? if not, you should never ever do that right now.<br>
<br>
i found a lot of duplicated and technically wrong boundaries in your country.<br>
<br>
i.g. in this area: <a href="https://osm.wno-edv-service.de/images/osm/snaps_2016/boundaries_in_indonesia_mapnik.png" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://osm.wno-edv-service.de<wbr>/images/osm/snaps_2016/boundar<wbr>ies_in_indonesia_mapnik.png</a> i see overlapping incorrect boundaries: <a href="https://osm.wno-edv-service.de/images/osm/snaps_2016/boundaries_in_indonesia.png" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://osm.wno-edv-service.de<wbr>/images/osm/snaps_2016/boundar<wbr>ies_in_indonesia.png</a> <br>
Probably some older imports, which did not respect the existing boundaries. And believe me, that is not the only one, there are dozends.<br>
<br>
And what are you planning to do with the outline of Surabaya? Deleting those bundaries will damage the areas outside of Surabaya.<br>
