North-West Toronto is very incomplete
ߊ߬ ߟߊߦߟߍ߬ߣߍ߲߬ ߦߋ߫ GRagib ߓߟߏ߫ 30 August 2008 ߦߋ߫ English ߟߋ߬ ߘߐ߫Hi all,
I was looking at the Toronto area. I returned to this website after a long hiatus due to work related reasons. Anyways, I was really surprised to see the amount of coverage in the Toronto area. A lot of the streets have been traced; not named though for whatever reason. I am doing this for my neighbourhood right now, and I will expand my efforts as time permits.
Is there a systematic effort underway for mapping Toronto, or did we upload Geobase or similar data? I found that large patches north of the 401 and west of the 400 have yet to be mapped.
Thanks for any clues.

Welcome back!
I'd guess the main reason the streets have no name is because people have traced them from the Yahoo imagery. (osm.wiki/index.php/Yahoo!_Aerial_Imagery). From that people can trace out the street, but until someone visits the street in person, no-one knows the name of it.

GeoBase has not yet been imported. As for an effort in Toronto, I am in the wrong province!
