First of all I have never been able to see the name of a street in my 20 minutes of watching google streetview. But you shoudl be able to get these things from them: turn restrictions stop signs cycleways pavements maxspeed And since they are facts and not *indexed* in a database so it should be ok. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
