i know that there are relations for the Interstate, US and some of the
NY routes through the county. likely those will be most of the roads that
have been edited at all, although i have done a little work in the villages
of Middleburgh and Scoharie.

it's a lightly populated county, doesn't have a whole lot of roads. you could
treat each of the villages as a neighborhood and then deal with the town
roads in between.

I did a little TIGER replacement after the license bot tore through things.
Mostly in LA and a little in Texas. I converted entire counties at a time
to OSM format using my own ogr2osm translation[1] but I only imported one
or two neighborhoods at a time. Doing anything on a county-wide basis would
probably be a little more involved because any highways that run through
the area might be in route relations even if their geometry hasn't been
edited. Also, it would be harder to spot the inevitable TIGER anomalies
that I was able to see and fix by hand when I was doing a neighborhood at a
time. Things like ogr2osm creating overlapping ways when TIGER had two
different names for a street. But at the end of the day it is probably
doable :)

i forgot this for the meeting tonight, but it didn't really need
to take up time in the hangout as it's not high priority.

one potential place where i might be doing an emergency response
project is Scoharie County, New York. Scoharie County is one of the
NY counties that suffers from fairly bad TIGER 2005 data. it also
happens to be a place where very little hand editing has been done.
this makes it a candidate for a drop and replace, and i'll be looking
for input into how this has been done in other places.

Paul and i discussed it a bit two weeks ago, but i hadn't mentioned
it here yet. again, low priority, i haven't talked to the folks in
Emergency Response in Scoharie County yet, but i have a good contact
there i'm chasing and he runs ER for the entire county.
