Une carte détaillée est aussi disponible à partir des liens reçus plus tot.voir https://open.canada.ca/data/en/fgpv_vpgf/7a5cda52-c7df-427f-9ced-26f19a8a64d6

Dans le cas de désastres, cette information est sûrement utile notamment pour localiser les habitations isolées, les zones inondables. Une grande partie du  bassin de la rivière Outaouais est déja couverte.
Mais pour l'import dans OSM, il nous reste d'abord à évaluer la qualité des données et corriger si nécessaire.

HI 

  

>From NRCan web site  https://www.nrcan.gc.ca/earth-sciences/geography/topographic-information/free-data-geogratis/whats-new/21747

  

“Natural Resources Canada is pleased to announce its new data layer on OpenMaps. The richness of this new data layer comes from information on height and elevation of the buildings that will help support Canadian governments priorities such as emergency management, particularly for flood and earthquake risk analysis. This release contains close to 1 million building footprints. We will expand this coverage as more LiDAR data becomes available over Canada.”

  

See the Lidar coverage (in green) https://www.nrcan.gc.ca/earth-sciences/geography/topographic-information/free-data-geogratis/whats-new/21742

  

NRCan will continu to add new building

  

Thank you

I think its where there's good lidar data and imagry for extraction in selected parts of Canada. The extents are here https://open.canada.ca/data/en/fgpv_vpgf/7a5cda52-c7df-427f-9ced-26f19a8a64d6

MB, Nova Scotia, Alberta and BC 

May want to update the building import project as this is a really good source!

Is it just Manitoba or all of Canada?

In which case do we want to revise the building import project.

Thanks John

Hi all, 

Canadian Geomatics posted this data set a few months back from Natural Resource Canada. 

It's Building footprints from Lidar or high res imagery.

>From what I can tell when placing the data over imagery it's very bang on. Highly accurate, good shapes (unlike the bing files) and well placed. As far as I can tell no one else has uploaded these to OSM. The areas in manitoba are mainly where there's little to no other building info. 

I can write an upload plan on Manitoba wiki as the data is complaint license wise. Anything else I should be looking for? The local mappers here are pretty excited about it.
