<body> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">Hi everyone. If there are no objections, I'd like to begin importing some data within the next few days. I've moved the wiki page to a subpage of New York, and I've added it to the Import Catalogue. I've also made a dedicated user account for the import named "nysgissam_dead10ck". I've been given access to create projects on the US HOT Tasking Manager, so I'll make a project there before beginning, and paste the link here, so progress can be tracked.</span>
<br>
<br> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">As I mentioned, my plan is to start with a single county and apply more scrutiny to the data. This will allow me opportunities to detect bugs and corner cases in my conversion program before uploading the data. If I eventually get to a point where I'm happy with the data, I'll consider asking everyone if it would be appropriate to automate the import.</span>

<blockquote style=""> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">Hello,</span>
<br style="">
<br style=""> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">A while back, I posted a thread expressing interest in importing the New York State GIS SAM Address Points:</span>
<br style="">
<br style=""> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-us-newyork/2020-July/000058.html</span>
<br style="">
<br style=""> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">I've made some good progress, and I think it's at the point now where it's ready for others to look at. I've made a draft proposal on my user wiki page here:</span>
<br style="">
<br style=""> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Dead10ck/NYS_GIS_SAM_Address_Points_Import</span>
<br style="">
<br style=""> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">I thought I'd share this before moving it to a subpage of New York, and adding it to the catalogue wiki page, as I'm not sure it has all the information that is expected of these pages.</span>
<br style="">
<br style=""> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">In particular, one thing I could use some more clarity on is: what do people usually use to split up and track work for imports? I saw the HOT Tasking Manager, but it seems like not just anyone can make projects on this tool. Am I supposed to just ask someone to make a project for me, or give me permission to make one myself, or is there another tool people use?</span>
<br style="">
<br style=""> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">A sample of the data from this converter program can be downloaded here:</span>
<br style="">
<br style=""> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">https://skyler-public.s3.amazonaws.com/osm/nys_gis_address_points_import_sample_east_north_greenbush.zip</span>
<br style="">
<br style=""> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">The zip consists of an .osc file of the changes it generated, and an .osm dump of the relevant data as it was when I generated the .osc file. It contains many new address points, and a few examples of addresses conflated into buildings. It also has a few examples of the kinds of issues it will detect and flag for review, such as existing conflicting addresses, duplicates in the source data, multipolygons, etc.</span>
<br style="">
<br style=""> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">I would really appreciate feedback on any part of this, from the approach of the conversion to the details of the plan, to the data itself. I may not respond very quickly, but I will when I can!</span>
<br style="">
<br style=""> <span style="font-family:sans-serif">Thank you</span>
