<html><body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><div>Around Vancouver I have found CanVec buildings to be quite inaccurate, so i would use Yahoo there. Best to do some mapping on the ground though with your GPS so you can be sure that Yahoo is properly rectified because I know quite a few areas in my neighborhood where yahoo imagery is off by like 100m and is all warped. :(</div>

When importing the data do we favour yahoo existing data in OSM (which
is obviously traced from satellite imagery) or CanVec? I'm assuming
CanVec for parks would be based on official park boundaries rather than
yahoo, line of site on open spaces. So parks would be better coming
from CanVec. But what about buildings?<br>
