[OSM-talk] US Golf Courses from GNIS

[Golf Geek]

After reviewing the "Import/Guidelines" wiki,  I realize I did not properly communicate about a data import I did, so here's a quick 'after action report'. Better late than never. :)
I noticed that although USGS GNIS data had been imported into OSM in the past, the US golf course locations provided as GNIS Locales had not been included.
So, I added a bunch of new golf_course nodes based on this data *** but only where there were no existing OSM golf_course nodes or ways nearby ***.  
I posted more details to the "imports" mailing list if you are interested.
I think the new nodes will be a valuable addition to OSM (although I am sure they are not perfect), and I think they  will be a good starting point for further manual edits.
Thanks.
