Yup, that was the reason why i kept dealing with the canvec stuff for myself, in hopes that the geobase road network would have gotten all done before the team started to work with canvec.<br><br>I omited the roads for that script on purpose :)<br>
<br>
Oh well, my fault for making that script available too soon :)<br><br>Cheers,<br>Sam <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Dec 11, 2009 at 7:40 AM, Daniel Bégin <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jfd553@hotmail.com">jfd553@hotmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Actually, I'm importing the Canvec road network in Laval
(north of Montreal)
because I've done a lot GPS mapping in this area. Last week I used
canvec-to-osm to convert the rest of the road network. So, if the tags are not
appropriate, something should be modified in the application. </span></font></p>

<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Curiously, I used the same application few weeks ago near Sherbrooke area and did
not have that problem?!! Someone can explain it to me?</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">However, I am in the process of correcting the data I imported. It has
not only odd tags but a problem using JOSM creates a lot of duplicate ways.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Which tags do you suggest I keep/remove? Pierre-Luc suggested me to
remove tags with "?" values, any other suggestions? I can easily
removed odd tags at the same time I'm correcting my ways.</span></font></p>

<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">I've been a little disconnected about the whole import process. Tonight</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">I've seen CanVec streets appear in my neighboorhood with odd tags such</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">as:</span></font></p>

<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">I believe such approach is unproductive as it takes quite a lot of work</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">to clean up the tags afterwards or even to print a nice map without ?</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">everywhere.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Tags should not be set to FIXME or "?". They should not be
set. Then</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">they'll show up on the "no name" layer. Please someone fix
that import</span></font></p>
