This is a wiki entry to discuss an import process of a series of shapefile for a research project regarding Caracas - Venezuela slums. Specifically, 2 Slums' Corridors named "23 de Enero - San Juan" and "Catia Sur".
The data to import was collected in a multi-week workshop with professionals working directly in-place in the slums.
It is to note that the area intended to modify is mostly empty (data-less).
In order to facilitate the data import, first was downloaded the data for the area of interest from the website https://www.geofabrik.de/data/download.html
Then the data were compared, matched and updated according to the fields and attributes of the shapefiles gathered from the above-mentioned website.
The resulting shapefiles were imported to the JOSM Java Editor and saved in OSM format. Then each layer was uploaded to the sandbox server http://api06.dev.openstreetmap.org/api
The changesets uploaded to the sandbox are as follow:
- Points of Worship
