Well, it's certainly important for me to be able to see potential matching problems. An OSL street's match is influenced by its neighbours, so even if an OSL entry is matched perfectly, it can still have an effect on other entries. > The reason I was confused was that it was showing as a bright green > rectangle (which I correctly assumed meant that OSL matched OSM, as you've > just confirmed), but when clicking on the rectangle it says "Near perfect > match", even though the road names are identical (save for CAPS).

I kid, I kid!! Muh. I would love it, but there's no standard way of doing this sort of thing. I suppose someone could write a PL2 data layer :) robert. _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
