[OSM-talk] shp2osm.pl: duplicated way nodes

[David Carmean]

I'm trying to import some shapefiles with areas into JOSM; so far I haven't 
been able to get "closed" ways.

I just tried shp2osm, and I get "Duplicated Way Nodes" errors in the validator.

I've also tried a two-step process with a couple of tools, DNRGarmin and ExpertGPS. 
These can produce GPX from SHP, but when I convert them to a data layer in JOSM 
I end up with Unclosed Ways (after I tag them).

Has anyone found an automated way to import areas from shapefiles?

Thanks.
