Very true Mike. There is still some value in detecting TIGER roads that are in 'original' state. For example, if you can detect a cluster of 'unmodified' TIGER roads, that would point to an area entirely untouched by human editors. I write 'original' and 'unmodified' in quotes, because a number of bots have touched most TIGER imported ways, so TIGER ways having version=1 are rare.-- Martijn van Exel [email protected]
