Dear Pete, Thanks, we will work on this project. I did a random visual inspection of several unfinished task and compared it with Bing. There is an offset of 2-4 meters compared to Bing, unfortunately no public traces exist. For this task, the focus are roads and landuse=residential. Since we will not touch buildings I don't think offset adjustment is necessary since it adds another thing to do for newbies. Should we ignore the offset?
