</div></div>+1 for Relations (I'm in the Darren camp on this one)<br>
<br>
I also like Jack's suggestion on name & old_name, plus the is_in tag.<br>
<br>
Given Darren's suggestion for au:ABS, I wonder if there are any examples of<br>
country namespaced tags? Obviously ABS is not likely to be unique, maybe ABS_au<br>
or Jack's <a href="http://abs.gov.au" target="_blank">abs.gov.au</a>? I think I like <a href="http://abs.gov.au" target="_blank">abs.gov.au</a> the best (eg.<br>
abs.gov.au:SSC_2006).</blockquote><div><br>personally, I don't like the double ':' - but I don't care too much either <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
<br>
What is the purpose of ABS:reviewed=no tag? Is it to check for obvious data<br>
errors (like Darren pointed out for the industrial estate - assuming it's<br>
obvious)?<br>
Other than that, at this point we don't really have any other source for this<br>
data, so how could we possibly review boundaries?</blockquote><div><br>There are going to be cases where we can 'know' that a boundary is wrong.<br>For example - 'Breakfast Point' in Sydney is not in the ABS data and it's<br>
got some fairly obvious boundaries when you drive around it.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br>
<br>
Assuming we go with the relations option, and ABS:SSC_2006 is tagged on the<br>
relation, what unique id to we tag the individual ways with? Wouldn't most ways<br>
be derived from 2 closed-area shapes, therefore ABS:SSC_2006 would have to be a<br>
combination of the parents id's (which might not be unique when converted<br>
anyway).</blockquote><div><br>Agreed, as it looks like we are going with relations (based on votes so far) some<br>tags will only be sensible on certain objects<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
<br>
I think once we get our import plan finalised (conversion of ways, tagging<br>
scheme etc.) we should update the wiki and post on the Talk mailing list with<br>
the plan, to hopefully get some comments from veteran importers (like Tiger &<br>
the midway Canada importers)</blockquote><div><br>Yep, I will do this. I also want to talk to them about the technical side of the import.<br>Running an import of this size is something that should be discussed so that it<br>
doesn't clog the server up for weeks.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">.<br>
