<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Prior to starting work
on Canada level checks I built a series of tools that compares
City of Ottawa "open data" with OSM data. Thye tools generate a
report with a list of things to <b>consider</b> as needing
updating (example: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://matthew.davintech.ca/osm/errors.txt">http://matthew.davintech.ca/osm/errors.txt</a>).
In some cases I found the OSM data reflects more reality and the
city is out of date. Every morning I get an email with a list
of changes in the report.... Today's report was 145 lines long,
and in it I found 1 thing I needed to fix (someone typoed an
address). There are a bunch others in that report need more
review, and others I know I just need to ignore as the city data
is inconsistent.</font></p>
<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">This report is how I
identified that telnav folks were not updating interpolation
addresses when they changed the street name (see discussion from
a few months ago). This past week they were updating street
names in Ottawa without also updating the name:fr or putting the
wrong name:fr. <br>
</font></p>
<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">I think we need more
automated checking on OSM data to check if they are in
accordance with local practices. Also good if we can build as
much checking as possible into the editors.<br>

<div>Attention, pas plus de modifications automatiques, mais
de bons outils de diagnostic utilisés avec précaution. Dans
l'exemple présenté ici, il y avait un piège, les chemins
étaient superposés et non visibles. Et un contributeur
expérimenté qui utilise probablement des outils automatisés
de diagnostic n'a rien vu, n'a pas vu que le segment entre
les deux voies du boulevard se superposait a une ligne
électrique a autre tension. Un virtuel Ouch cela fait mal,
