Re: [Talk-us] Tampa/Clearwater Building Import to aid in Irma Recovery Efforts

Seems to be a lot of concerns for an import that is meant to bolster data available prior to a major hurricane strike, when HOT does a task in Africa I often don't see the same level of concern about the armchair mapper's local knowledge. That's just my observation, and I have worked some tasks

Re: [Talk-us] "System Continuity" in the Functional Classification network

Broadly speaking, yes, such continuity should apply. Maybe not using exactly the same rule as the US DOT. In practice there is an overfocus on observing how a given stretch of road is built and an underfocus on the role it plays in the network. My pet example is this stretch of US 2 & 41:
