Repository files navigation

This repository supports the San Francisco Building Height Import into OpenStreetMap.

The stuff in here:

  • Imports the LIDAR Shapefile into PostGIS.
  • Creates a preview tileset that can be rendered in Tangram by automatically conflating LIDAR and OSM. This is useful to see how the data might look when we're done.
  • Creates an OSM Tasking Manager task list, that has roughly equally sized tasks of <50 buildings each.
  • Defines a Mapnik stylesheet and data sources for the LIDAR imagery tileset that mappers will use in iD.
