In answer to myself, the reason they are missed out in the ITO layer is
obvious: within the OSL bounding boxes the ITO script finds ways named
Cleeve Green, Cameley Green etc in OSM, but these ways are actually
named footpaths - the unnamed roads next door are ignored.

oslVosm finds these discrepancies because it doesn't use the OSL
bounding box, only the OSL road centroid.

I'll be using both to mop up the area!

I've just been having a go with the ITO layer and the results from the 
oslVosm script, and there are some discrepancies between the two:
namely, the ITO tiles seem to be missing some missing-roads (to coin a
phrase!) which the oslVosm script IS picking up.

One example is a road called Shaws Way in OS Locator, but Shaw Way in
OSM. The ITO tiles which I have setup as a backdrop in JOSM do not flag
this up.

Other examples include Cleeve Green, Cameley Green and Pennard Green
(all OSL names). These names coincide with unnamed ways in OSM, but
again ITO does not flag these.

(All these road names are in Bath).

Is there a reason for these missing missing-roads?

Tim
