Hi all,I posted a link to the screen shot on the wiki page
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Canvec2osm
I haven't uploaded any of the data, because I haven't figured out how to get
the tags on there (especially the NID)
I used the shp-to-osm java program (from Ian Dees), and a basic DOS program
to name all the shape files. The shapefiles contain more details, as you can
see from the other image, viewing from the JUMP program. The wiki charts
show how each feature ID# would match up to OSM.

>From the example, it would be awesome if JOSM could handle importing just
the selected item or selected groups of items, rather than uploading
everything that was shown.  Is that technically possible?

Thanks,
Sam Vekemans
