Thanks for the tip on responding. I have been mapping street lamps based on my own knowledge and the ones that I can spot on the aerial photography. Would it be allowed to use the dataset as a kind of "cheat sheet" as in to see where they are roughly and then use the aerial imagery to line them up exactly?
