A while ago we started working on OSM data issues in Tanzania (<a href="https://github.com/osmlab/appledata/issues/62" class="">https://github.com/osmlab/appledata/issues/62</a>) and we recently used our Atlas data analysis tool (<a href="https://github.com/osmlab/atlas" class="">https://github.com/osmlab/atlas</a>) to look at a few types of potential issues, such as building-road intersections, overlapping ways (usually duplicated roads) and road angles that are too sharp. I've posted the results of those checks on MapRoulette, a tool that lets you go through potential issues one by one and either correct them or indicate they are not a problem. I wanted to let you know they are available in case others wanted to try fixing some of them — I also plan to go through some of them myself. </font></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">In MapRoulette you can either pick a random task to fix or click on a specific one.
