I have to agree with Jason on this as well. Admin borders are some of

It's the other way around, really. We're adjusting our routing logic
to adapt to OSM. Referring to the wiki, a service road is 'Generally

I would not dispute at all that administrative boundaries are an
important component of any map. OSM is not really just a map though -
it is a database you can make a map out of among many other things,
and a very unique database at that: one created

The Battle Grid is now colored based on where many people drive,
instead of simply urban / rural according to census CDP boundaries.
Happy mapping!

A very big +1 to this. Posing a challenge to the construction of an
accurate routing algorithm is a poor excuse to propose rippling through

OK, Clifford, I take your point very well. It may not be one-off,
but when routing algorithms chase data in this way, we CAN say it
comes close to tagging for the algorithm and is therefore to be
discouraged. But this might be considered a sharpening up of the
data in a perfectly valid way
Would be cool to get this as a JOSM plugin so we can see what's up at a
glance, particularly when we have a GPX overlaid.

Interesting you should ask :) It should come as no surprise that we
have tons of GPS traces. The new battle grid coloring is based on
them. For all kinds of reasons, both legal and strategic, we have been
reluctant in sharing the actual traces, and I don't think it will come
to that solely based
