Hello,

The Data Working Group has recently received an email from someone at dot.ny.gov, saying that there's a general problem with satnav directions following changes to this interchange:

https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/42.11451/-75.90885

Essentially, it's in the process of being changed and there will be temporary reconfigurations during construction until the final layout is achieved.  Also, what's currently in OSM (which seems to be mostly a few years old) isn't up to date.  I've explained that OSM is created by volunteers and linked to https://www.openstreetmap.org/about etc. to provide a bit more background.

What they've asked for is a contact within OSM who they can work with to ensure that the data is updated to be correct as of now, and changed as and when future changes occur.

Obviously it makes sense for the person doing this to be at least on the same continent, so I'm asking for a volunteer here.  Email me via [email protected] and I'll pass the details on.  Also, if anyone can think of anyone who might want to do it and might not be reading talk-us, please pass the message on to them too.

Best Regards,

Andy Townsend, on behalf of OSM's Data Working Group.
