[Talk-ca] [Imports] Shp2OSM : various questions

[Sam Vekemans]

Hi Frank, cc: imports@ talk-ca@

Thanks Emilie,
I havent looked at that polyshp2osm.py script (at all) it might be worth
exploring, as it could help out with the inner/outer/relations and dealing
with the large amount of shps in an area.

Like i mentioned the other day,. perhaps just the wooded area file could be
done with a separate process than the rest of the canvec data? And the
Rivers/waterbody file could also be done with a separate process so then 80
of the 90 features can be dealt with, during 1 script routeen.

Hi Ian, does the shp-to-osm java program now handle that 'non-connecting
intersecting ways' bug?  ... it effects the features of railways &
powerlines & rivers, as well as the canvec version of the roadnetwork.  If
not, then perhaps the shp2osm script needs to be used to deal with it.

Anyway, its now Frank thats the one in charge of it, but i just wanted to
point that out.

Cheers,
Sam
