<br>
With thanks to Natural Resources Canada, and Land Information<br>
Ontario... All trails which are in these 2 databases will make their<br>
way into OpenStreetMap Database.<br>
... they do not get 'dropped in' or 'injected into the map' (Like<br>
CommonMap Does) .. but rather, it gets used as a tool to be slowely<br>
placed into the database, manually.<br>
... and exact source attribution and tags like 'reference ID number'<br>
do not get added, because other sources of trail collecting are used.<br>
These sources have a higher 'importance value' than the 2 governments<br>
data.<br>
<br>
<br>
.... Me, along with a whole bunch of others, are waiting for<br>
OpenStreetMap licence to officially change over.<br>
<br>
<br>
Richard, would it be appropriate to direct 'outsiders' like me, over<br>
to CommonMap's 'community'? That way, discussions will remain on<br>
topic.<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
