Hi everyone,
after discussing this on the Swiss OSM mailing list (talk-ch), I hereby
announce the plan for importing building outlines and addresses for the
Canton Basel-Stadt in Switzerland.
The import is semi-automatic and will initially comprise several
thousand buildings and their addresses. Later, the same workflow can be
used to further improve accuracy in already covered areas, and to keep
up with real-world changes.
The import wiki page can be found here:
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Canton_Basel-Stadt_Building_and_Address_Import>
I do not conceal that an import following similar guidelines had been
conducted in 2015/2016, but without review on the Imports mailing list.
That former import has already covered 80% of the buildings and
addresses. The import proposed here aims a continuation of this work
backed by standard procedures, i.e. getting it reviewed on the Imports list.
I'm a local mapper living in the area and will contribute myself to the
efforts.
Looking forward to your comments,
Johannes
