There is now a task in the OSM Task Manager to help coordinate the effort at http://tasks.openstreetmap.us/project/104 There is also a WMS layer of Texas statewide streets available at http://maps.mapwise.com/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=maps/fmo-base-osm-texas.map; - use that URL in JOSM. Adding

There was a (poorly) done import of house numbers done in San Diego county a long while back. Data from that import usually has a source tag of "SanGIS Addresses Public Domain (http://www.sangis.org/)”. I think a reasonable check for some of the questionable street names in that area could be

Happy to help. All we'd need for MapRoulette is a list of locations and a proper description of the work we'd expect people to do. Anyone can create the challenge but I'd be happy to do it. Martijn On Sun, Aug 27, 2017, 11:40 Frederik Ramm wrote: > Steve: > > thank you for

Hi, in 2010 I was privately contacted by another OSM user with the suspicion that user "chdr" might be copying names from Google maps (there were few "easter eggs" in Oman that were only on Google and not in the real world, and they suddenly popped up on OSM). "chdr" was contacted at the time,

What a bummer. I went through all the ways in California, and half of them were in Orange County where I live, so I was able to confirm / fix them via public sources - two changelists reflect the confirmation and various fixes I made while I was in the area.

Okay, slogged though the rest of the list Steve had. Nearly all match the TIGER 2015 data so should be good. Here is what I checked: TIGER 2015 5949993,"California","United States of America" Tulagi Road, San Diego TIGER 2015 5957171,"California","United States of America"
