I believe folks still use it in places to indicate that no-one has reviewed it on the ground, but I cannot find the thread(s) where that was brought up. I think a mechanical removal may be a bit overzealous, even though I personally wouldn't shed a tear. As long as there is at least one tag left that would indicate TIGER as the original source, so we can continue to detect 'unmodified TIGER' roads.-- Martijn van Exel [email protected]
