[Imports] Import of Flemish Government data (building footprints and addresses)

[Pierre Béland]

There are new mappers that are told at mapathons to do anything they want. They are makin a lot of fantassy and errors tracing buildings, and anyway are leaving OSM after a few hours !  Statistics show a high turnaround. 

If we could have as much scrutiny about the mapathons plans for training, monitoring, corrections ...

You do have cases of new mappers being told that they are "doing it 
wrong" because they try and update OSM data that is (at least partially) 
regularly updated by imported government data, though. 
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/63105329 is one that springs to 
mind (mainly because it's a buolding I've visited a very long time 
ago).  Whatever the rights and wrongs of the situation, this mapper 
didn't feel able to continue in OSM.

Best Regards,

Andy
