<div dir="auto"><span style="font-family:sans-serif;font-size:13.696px">Hi, I reviewed the data awhile back for San Jose and found that it was high quality and definitely worth being imported. Yes, by all means please feel free to jump in on this import! It will a great addition to connect other imports done in the Bay Area. There are a few buildings that I and others have traced manually from imagery. I started working my way north tracing images in southern San Jose with Bing imagery before I realized the city had the data available. I am fine with having any of the buildings I've traced deleted in favor of the better quality shapes. I would be happy to assist in the import however I can, and there are several other mappers in the area who have helped with imports who would also be able to take over part of the work load.</span><div dir="auto" style="font-family:sans-serif;font-size:13.696px">All the best, Nathan Mixter</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Feb 22, 2017 4:09 AM, <<a href="mailto:talk-us-request@openstreetmap.org">talk-us-request@openstreetmap.org</a>> wrote:<br type="attribution"><blockquote class="quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Send Talk-us mailing list submissions to<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
Recently we came across three open buildings datasets for San Jose[1],<br>
Berkeley[2] and Fremont[3]. We have evaluated the quality of each of<br>
the datasets and found them to have good coverage and building<br>
extrusions match recent satellite imagery. We have updated the wiki[4]<br>
with the above sources for California.<br>
<br>
<br>
- San Jose: <a href="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/1933377/22969874/09901660-f396-11e6-93a9-225dfab1ccc9.png" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://cloud.<wbr>githubusercontent.com/assets/<wbr>1933377/22969874/09901660-<wbr>f396-11e6-93a9-225dfab1ccc9.<wbr>png</a><br>
- Berkeley: <a href="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/1933377/22469786/28cb43b4-e7f3-11e6-979c-0fcc27cea67d.png" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://cloud.<wbr>githubusercontent.com/assets/<wbr>1933377/22469786/28cb43b4-<wbr>e7f3-11e6-979c-0fcc27cea67d.<wbr>png</a><br>
- Fremont: <a href="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/1933377/22917071/97fb3536-f2a8-11e6-885c-26a5f0a6ce14.png" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://cloud.<wbr>githubusercontent.com/assets/<wbr>1933377/22917071/97fb3536-<wbr>f2a8-11e6-885c-26a5f0a6ce14.<wbr>png</a><br>
<br>
The datasets for San Jose and Berkeley also contain building heights<br>
and that of San Jose contains building parts as well.<br>
<br>
- Building part details in San Jose:<br>

<br>
Our team would be happy to collaborate if you are open to importing<br>
these datasets to OpenStreetMap.<br>
