When it comes to McDonald's, at least in the USA and Canada, they (when they
are stand-alone stores) are extremely easy to verify via Bing Imagery since
they almost always use the same design for the buildings. It also helps when
the sun was just right when the imagery was taken that the McDonald's logo
casts a shadow on the ground from their tall sign (if they have one).
So, you might be able to get away with just checking the imagery for the
misspelled ones in the USA/Canada without having to rely on doing anything
mechanical. And for the ones you can't verify, you could just add a note for
them to be field checked if the building design doesn't match any of the normal
designs, or is inside a gas station/WalMart and can't be verified for sure
since those locations can/do change often sometimes to another brand.
