Even after performing this comparison you are still relying on the work of the person who verified these things on the ground, or against aerial imagery. You could, however, make a fair clean-room remapping by ignoring the existing tags and geometry completely and taking them entirely from OS. Personally I've tagged source=OS when relying only on OpenData and not additional ground survey or aerial photos; however, there is still some 'sweat of the brow' involved since matching up the streets against OS involves some judgement calls and common sense - it is not a blind or fully automatable process. -- Ed Avis <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
