[Talk-ca] Geobase import by provinces

[Michel Gilbert]

Hi osm users,

Geobase National Road Network (NRN) datasets are available in shape and GML
by provinces or Territories. So, I think we should plan the import by
provinces. Furthermore, we should base, the order of conversion, on the
dataset content. In fact, there are three levels of NRN
content<http://www.geobase.ca/geobase/en/data/nrn/status.html>
:


   - Roads with basic attributes : Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, New
   Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland, Northwest Territories and
   Nunavut Territory


   - Roads with basic attributes + street & place names : British Columbia


   - Roads with basic attributes + street & place names + block face
   addressing : Alberta, Nova Scotia and Yukon Territory

I proposed to start with a Province or Territory that have street & place
names. It may allow enough time to let GeoBase provides update datasets with
names. What do you think ?
