[Talk-ca] Building Import

[John Whelan]

Which I think comes back to defining the local mappers.

There has been discussion on Montreal as well and not all Ontario thinks 
the same way.  Ottawa local mappers for example have different opinions 
to Pierre and Nate on what is acceptable and I'm under the impression 
that not everyone in Toronto agrees with Nate's position.

We seem to be blocking out parts of the country such as Montreal is this 
a reasonable approach?

Can we find someway to loosely define local groups and their areas of 
responsibility and how to contact them?

For example one small Ontario city has to my knowledge one OpenStreetMap 
mapper who maps very occasionally.  My understanding is they would be 
quite happy to see an import happen but many of the buildings have 
already been mapped although not to the accuracy that the Stats Can data 
offers.  How do you deal with these smaller cities and townships?

Thanks

Cheerio John
