Such as prominent buildings, schools, pubs, walking trails - since newer ones wouldn't be in the NRCAN data, and the like. If road names have changed recently, they would also have to be corrected. Some buildings and paths are already included, but Majors Hills Park, for example, does not have many paths in it. <br>

<div></div>Sorry about the delay. <br><br>Yes, you were right, David. The OSM
person from BC is not able to make it and as such, I don't really have any
presenters on the topic. I could do a short talk, but I think Richard Weait's
talk from FOSSLC's SummerCamp was much better. <br><br>Are people interested
in a mapping party? Everyone head out to a certain area with maps from
<a href="http://walking-papers.org" target="_blank">walking-papers.org</a> or their GPS, then
we meet back at an area with wifi and update the map together. <br>If anyone
is interested in the mapping party, let me know and I'll plan it for the end
of the month.<br><br>Cheers,<br>Teresa<br><br>

I'm away in between.<br>><br>> Given that we met pretty
