[Talk-ee] Fwd: [Imports] European urban landuse vector data

[Jaak Laineste (Nutiteq)]

 Seal (http://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/data/urban-atlas) on
muuhulgas Tallinn (tegelikult kogu Harjumaa) ja Tartu (ei ole vaadanud
sisse) andmed päris detailsed. Umbes nagu Corine, aga linna täpsusega,
mitu taset detailsem. Isegi teede alad on eraldi välja lõigatud, mis
IMHO on natuke tülikas.

Võibolla tasuks isegi .osm failid tekitada ja kes soovib võib neid
nende piirkondade täiendamiseks kasutada. Näiteks metsad, pargid,
elamupiirkonnad jms peaksid üsna head olema.

The UA data is accompanied by reports from the teams that collected
the data for each city.  In many places they list Google Earth imagery
as a reference.  They also included roads "landuse" which is a buffer
around the centrelines of roads and the source of the centrelines is
only listed as "off-the-shelf navigation data".  I would love to know
what this data is as it's quite complete although apparently
positional errors of 10-20m were added.

But I think it's okay to use it in OSM if EEA thinks it's okay, and I
think someone has asked EEA already (there have been imports in some
countries already and some small-scale uses elsewhere.  In Slovakia
IIRC, they decided to manually remove and patch the "roads" landuse
which cut through other landuse polygons).

Cheers
