Example where TIGER screwed up: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/11062617/history "NE Hwy 27 Aly" is actually US 27 Alternate. And an actual real-world example: Alligator Alley is a four-lane freeway across the Everglades. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
