<div dir="ltr"><div>That ITO map seems to be only looking at ways. If you include relations in the analysis things should actually be pretty good. There should be a (mostly) correct boundary relation for every county in the US. At one point I was the last user to have touched about 40% of them... There may very well be some cleanup with state/city borders that overlap. I thought I got most of the state ones although I may have missed some out east.<br>

If there is a "can o' whoop" state by state available (whether freshly offered by our federal workers or a not-stale archive), perhaps effort to tease the good ones in (untangling with what is already) can be part of a next Edit-A-Thon.<br>
<br>
Yes, by can o' whoop I mean the pop-it-open special blend of skill, careful steps, wider discussion, vetting, organization and roll-up-our-sleeves that I KNOW we can do, but hey, isn't that what we're doing here?!<br>
<br>
Just throwing out what I think might be a well-identified idea. Discussing and paying attention to counties-at-a-time can shake a little order into things where now it seems a bit lumpy and chaotic.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
