Dammit, I hit reply instead of reply-to-list. Apologies to Mike if he expected this to be private. I'd also appreciate input on Indian roads, since, with the exception of Laguna Pueblo roads (all of which have reference numbers starting with "L"), I'm not sure how to properly differentiate each tribe's roads from one another, or even properly classify them as a network. Not sure if they would be their own top level network or as a subnet of US (network=US:Cherokee vs network=Cherokee as example) given the greatly varied treaty status of various nations...see also previously mentioned concerns about aboriginal indigenous/indian reservation tagging and administration boundaries from 2010 that still go unresolved...
(The whole tribal boundary tagging and tribal road tagging thing is rearing it's ugly head for me again since 1) I'm back in Tulsa and it's kind of a major issue in this part of North America, what with 34 tribes in well under a day's drive from me, and 2) I just drove Historic US 66 from the Santa Monica Pier to get back here, and the modern network and route are often tribal in nature, so this is by no means whatsoever a regionally isolated problem, and i'd like to have some idea how I'm going to handle that problem when I start going over my Route 66 traces). ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Michal Migurski <m...@stamen.com> Date: Thu, Oct 18, 2012 at 9:00 PM Subject: Re: [Talk-us] Scrubbing route relations To: Paul Johnson <ba...@ursamundi.org> Yes, I like that! The one issue I have with omitting the "CR" is that it becomes hard to categorize anything as county roads generally without knowing all 3,500 US county names. -mike.

Another mapper suggested that I replace them with something like this so it's not necessary to know all the county names in order to correctly interpret something as a county route: > > network=US:NY:CR:Rensselaer > > Kosher? > > -mike. > > On Oct 18, 2012, at 5:16 PM, Richard Welty wrote: > > > the scrubbing looks mostly ok, BUT... > > > > i am one of the folks who started out using US:<state>:CR for county route networks, which i now believe was > > a mistake. we really should be using county names, not CR in the network tag, e.g. > > > > network=US:NY:Rensselaer > > > > otherwise we can't really tell which county the route is in, and can't distinguish CR 1 in Columbia County from CR 1 in > > Rensselaer County. > > > > richard > > > > On 10/18/12 7:26 PM, Michal Migurski wrote: > >> Hi everyone, > >> > >> We're getting ready to do a major data update to the Stamen Terrain layer and I've been working on scrubbing the route relations data from OSM.
