[Talk-ca] Canvec.osm Product - Running!

[Bégin, Daniel]

Bonjour OSMers!
 
Canvec.osm product conversion is running since 07:30 - Sherbrooke time. It is based on Canvec release 8.0.

All files will be reprocessed. From south to north, east to west, except for a few priorities.

What is new:
*	Updated road for BC,AB,SK,ON,NS,YK,NT
*	New files very far up north

Changes from previous release: 
*	Swapped amenity=school/prison tag values corrected 
*	Misspelled tag value on highway=unclassified corrected. 
*	Duplicated railway=rail features removed. 
*	Single node natural=land within natural=water inner polygon created only if a name tag is attached to it. 
*	Multiple consecutive spaces in name tag are removed. 
*	name:fr/name:en applied on all features when available. 
*	Surface orientation respects right-hand rule. 
*	Missing large polygons should have been corrected (to confirm).

Thanks to those who are maintaining this wiki page :-)

Let me know if you find unexpected problems in the data. I'll be out of the office for a week. I'll check/answer your emails when I'm back.

Cheers, 
Daniel
