What would be an example of a township that would be at admin_level=7? On Thu, Oct 21, 2010 at 8:29 AM, Greg Troxel <g...@ir.bbn.com> wrote: > In Massachusetts, we have counties.

I was told that school districts don't count, because they don't do enough, which has me totally confused as to what it is we're supposed to be mapping. Is there anyone else who, in the United States, uses the notion of admin_level? In other words, the notion that administrative districts across the entire country can be ranked from 1-9 (or 1 to whatever)? The big problem is that that administrative districts in the US aren't really hierarchical, or, at least, many of them are not. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
