[Talk-ca] Revert in Aylmer is complete

[Bégin, Daniel]

Bonjour Jonathan,

NRN (source of Canvec road network) was not supposed to contain any "planned" street but I understand that some have been included accidentally in Quebec. Field work might be necessary until the next NRN version is available and included in Canvec product.

Richard, thank you. The reversion is coming up in Mapnik now -- I didn't have to check in an editor after all -- and things look back to normal as far as I can tell. If there are glitches, they can't be very widespread.

I notice that the addr:interpolation ways are still there, which all in all I think is a good thing. They can be a little off in some of the newer developments (e.g., around Wilfrid-Lavigne north of Allumettières); older streets match up better with the addr:interpolation ways. And it's somewhat ghostly to see them where there are no streets. These are things that can be tweaked manually -- but still less work than we would otherwise have faced. [1]

I'm reluctant to trace in street ways between the ghost addr:interpolation ways without confirming on the ground the existence of the street, in case the imported data includes streets on the drawing boards that have not yet been built (which I spotted in at least a couple of areas, unless the City of Gatineau has been busy over the winter). I plan on surveying these streets in the spring, unless someone else who lives closer beats me to it.
