[Talk-us] Tools for importing National Hydrography Dataset?

[Theodore Book]

Sorry to be slow to the conversation.  I have been importing the NHD 
data for Georgia, and have scripts that do the conversion for all of the 
NHD Ftypes that I have found so far.  I have also prepared a version of 
polyshp2osm that converts areas to complex multipolygons, which allows a 
restriction on maximum way length (important for the API 0.6 
conversion.)  If anyone wants them, I would be happy to e-mail them to 
him, or, if someone would like to post them on some website, that would 
be great, too.
