A large part of what I'm doing is adding tags to the I 5, mainly lit=yes/no
since you can't get much else at night.
Because I'm editing the tags anyways, I'm stripping off unnecessary or

Background: I'm working on converting NHD to .osm format
NHD is an extremely large data set. It's about 25G of zipfiles and all of
this converted to .osm would total about 3 TB. This is about 10x-15x times
the size of planet.osm.
There are three factors that lead to this large size. The third is
