[Talk-ca] Re : British Columbia Regional District boundary data

[Pierre Béland]

David,

There might be other ways to test such relations, but I like to use http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org. It is simple and give synthetic information about the boundary relation.
It lets find the relation, see a graphical representation of the 
boundaries, look at relation content and see the objects reported within the area.

Search for Capital Regional District, British 
Columbia, an click on the Details link for Capital Regional district. 
You will be directed to 
http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=2483643791

I looked at a few locations reported within the boundaries and they where properly reported.

An other test is do a Nominatim search of a a locality within the boundaries, like for example, colwood,
 canada, 
Nominatim reports Colwood, Capital Regional District, 
Brithis Columbia, Canada. This is an other indication that the boundary 
relation is detected.
 
Pierre
