Thank you Steve for that ITO link. I was unaware of that and it really is a 
nice tool to see the overall status of the TIGER fixup in an area.

I used to simply delete the the tiger:reviewed tag. But, based on things I’ve 
read either in the mail lists or elsewhere, more recently I’ve been deleting 
all the TIGER tags when I’ve surveyed the road and fixed any alignment, etc. 
issues. I see on the ITO map that changes the color to black whilst simply 
removing the reviewed tag turns it blue. . .

Anyway, what is the current best practice dealing with TIGER tags once the road 
has been surveyed and corrected? Remove all TIGER tags or just the reviewed tag?

Thanks!
Tod
