Ok well so far I see no opposition to deleting tiger:upload_uuid. I
might go ahead and work on some code for this.
Other than that we have some votes for keeping tiger:county, tiger:zip
and tiger:separated although I personally still have it in for
tiger:separated :)
Any thoughts on
I happened to be looking at Kern County and noticed two problems with the
imports that seem to be systemic over the area.
The first is classification of empty areas as landuse=residential (e.g.

When it comes to Interstates multiplexing, I think we should list first the one
that the exit numbers are for on the highway. Some examples would be as
follows: ref=I 76;I 70 on the PA Turnpike since I-76 is the main route and
all the exits along there use I-76's mileage.ref=I 77;I 74 in NC

The most common problem I see is a missing way. But all the nodes are

Here's my 2 cents on the mentioned tiger tags, fwiw:
tiger:cfcc - As I understand, its original purpose was to classify
different highway types, but once the appropriate OSM tags [derived in
part from this tag, and then also from whatever other sources,
imagery, personal visit, etc] have been
Personally, I think there should be a tag to differentiate between a
one-way road and half of a divided road; yes, a human can look at the map
and make that determination instantly, but a computer requires some
advanced analysis. (I can imagine some extra-nice rendering could benefit
from this
Hi,
Sorry to be late to chip in.
I would keep CFCC. It's a good tag to have both to be able to generate
statistics (how much of original TIGER class mapping remains intact?)
as well as for reference; I find the CFCC classification is usually
good - even if the mapping onto OSM k/v is sometimes

I never knew what it was supposed to mean. If it was (as its name suggests)
to indicate a physical separation
Kern County does have its set of unique challenges. As mentioned, the rural
areas of Kern County I imported from the official county files tend to be too
generalized - either landuse=farm for agricultural land or landuse=residential
for any type of residential area even if it is rural

Hi all,
I'm going to discuss this with the local NYC community (some of which
are on this list) but I'm going through NYC and I'm looking for things
that aren't right.
I've tried to do some nominatim queries and the results have been
frustrating at best.
Some of these appear to be TIGER
Brooklyn actually does come up way down in the Nominatim list.. I
think part of the confusion may be that this is technically Kings
County (which renders invalid the possibility of using the
administrative level of county as the key for the boroughs).
Boroughs are somewhat unique beasts to New
