Hi,

I intend to import tree data in the Hobsons Bay LGA into OSM.

The data has been verified by myself with aerial imagery and DELWP (Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning)/VicMap boundaries.

I will be importing small squares of data at a time, including the tree circumference, species (if known) or genus (if species unknown). Tree circumference in the data are grouped by ranges of 150mm. I have taken the maximum of these ranges to be the circumference in my code.

A source tag will be attached to each tree node imported, source=data.gov.au:Hobsons Bay City Council, and also on the relevant changesets.

A CC BY 2.5 and 3.0 waiver has been signed by Hobsons Bay and is available on both the Australian Data Catalogue page and the Contributors<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contributors#Hobsons_Bay_City_Council_data> page.

Any questions or feedback regarding the import would be highly appreciated, including whether the approach to the circumference tag, and source tag is acceptable.


Regards,

David
