As I thought, the first step would be to license that data under the ODbL. I don’t think that would take too much effort (famous last words?) as we have a very small bureaucracy and I’m always one or two people away from the mayor and council. I got some great resources and contacts on how to proceed with this step. I’ll be in touch as soon as I get permission for our road centerline and street address data to be shared with OSM or if I run into any major road blocks along the way.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>Anatolijs<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'> John Marshall [mailto:rps333@gmail.com] <br><b>Sent:</b> Tuesday, April 4, 2017 4:17 PM<br><b>To:</b> Anatolijs Venovcevs <gistech@happyvalley-goosebay.com><br><b>Cc:</b> Talk-CA OpenStreetMap <talk-ca@openstreetmap.org><br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [Talk-ca] Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Labrador, Canada Data<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>Hi Anatolijs,<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Good luck.

As a result, I’m responsible for doing just about everything to assist the town in geospatial-related functions and have a very tight budget and not a lot of time to them. One of the things there’s been a real interest in is developing some sort of a basic interactive web map for the town’s public information (zoning, water and sewer lines, attractions for our tourist map, etc.). I’m planning on using QGIS plugin qgis2web to do that and use an OpenStreetMap background.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>Before I can do that, OpenStreetMap data for the town needs to be updated. It looks to me approximately five years out of date and the town has been experiencing a major boom in the last few years. Currently, the town has possession of an updated street centerline network (digitized from 40 cm resolution orthorectified Worldview 2 satellite imagery) and an up-to-date civic number system with building footprints and parcels for recreational spaces and etc. coming later this year. I’d like to share them with the OSM community.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>Before I do that, I’m looking for community buy-in for the project. I will start with manually adding the new streets that have been built over the last few years and correct any information within the town boundaries that no longer represents reality on the ground. If that’s ok with all of you, I’d like to make the OSM web mapping for my corner of Canada a little better.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>Thank you,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='color:#888888'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><b><span style='color:#888888'>Anatolijs Venovcevs</span></b><span style='color:#888888'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='color:#888888'> <o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><br>_______________________________________________<br>Talk-ca mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org">Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org</a><br><a href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca" target="_blank">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca</a><o:p></o:p></p></blockquote></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></div></body></html>
