<div dir="ltr">Tod,<div>You might want to look into Paul Norman's ogr2osm.py [1] python tool which can translate shapefiles into .osm files that can be uploaded using JOSM. It's simple to use, just need to create a translation file for shapefile fields to OSM tag. </div><div><br></div><div>I'm in the process of doing an import of building and addresses for Marysville, WA. Way smaller than you import. The import page is <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Marysville_Import">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Marysville_Import</a> which has links to my code including the ogr2osm.py translation scripts. </div><div><br></div><div>Feel free to contact me offline if you have any questions.</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Clifford</div><div><br></div><div>[1] <a href="https://github.com/pnorman/ogr2osm">https://github.com/pnorman/ogr2osm</a></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Jul 28, 2020 at 3:06 PM Tod Fitch <<a href="mailto:tod@fitchfamily.org">tod@fitchfamily.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">I'm planning an import of buildings and addresses for Orange County, California.

<br>
This is a one time import using JOSM.<br>
<br>
A links to the data being imported given on the wiki and the data is marked as public domain.<br>
<br>
Note: There is an effort by ERSI to make this same dataset available to mappers working with the RapiD data via MapWithAI. For a description of that, see <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Orange_County,_California_Buildings" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Orange_County,_California_Buildings</a><br>
<br>
This is my first attempt at an import so gentle guidance on following best procedures will be appreciated.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Tod<br>
