[Talk-ca] CanVec Contour Lines

[Sam Vekemans]

hi,
would you be able to share the python script?
I dont think it would be that hard to do, afterall, Dale (Ibycus) was
able to convert the data from shp files).


So i think it's a matter of just setting the script to convert and add
tags which would line up with mkgmap.


osm's equivelent would be 'contour=minor' contour=major' etc. I have
the whole list if anyone wants it.


i can add it to do list :)
although i dont know pythons innerds, i do know how to run the script
on the command line :)


cheers,
sam
