the GNS data, but there are a lot of errors in the data

<div>Hi Jothirnadh,<br>
</div>
Can you please point us to the
license info of the <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://nga.mil"
target="_blank">nga.mil</a>
server you mentioned in the blog?
In case it is not of appropriate
license, we cannot import into
OSM. I believe <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://geonames.org"
target="_blank">geonames.org</a>
data is not of suitable license
(others can correct me if I'm
wrong). Is the data at the <a
moz-do-not-send="true"

layer based on <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
