<div dir="ltr">I did not tag most of the data, mainly since i didn't know the street name / type.<br>Just manually drawing a line over the gpx data, and connecting it to the surrounding roads is a considerable amount of work.<br>
<br>I think that automatic conversion of gpx to osm points and lines is not that appealing, since you get lines with way too many points, and still have to connect the line to the surrounding streets and eliminate duplications - some of the gpx tracks are already mapped.<br>
<br>I also wanted to mention, that JOSM can also convert gpx to osm data, and also upload the new data.<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Nov 27, 2008 at 11:45 AM, Moshe Sayag <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:msayag@gmail.com" target="_blank">msayag@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Starting now, these gpx files are marked public and can be accessed here:<br>

Albeck will not be using these gpx files to map data. So that we'll be our job :)<br>
After map lines are drawn, Albeck may find a way to help enter the street names, either directly on OSM or by us asking him for specific street names. We'll think about it later.<br><br>Tal<br></div>
