Thanks for pointing out the png issue. If you choose png format,
JOSM will automatically make it transparent, because it adds
transparent=true to the generated WMS URL. And best to choose
image/png; mode=8bit to reduce the size of the image generated on
the server, which helps with speed on slow connections.<br>
<br>
Also, if anyone has suggestions on the styling, please chime in.
The labels are a bit large, but they stand out.<br>

all TIGER fixup junkies. I've been poking around
the coastal areas of Texas where Hurricane Harvey
is expected to make landfall and seeing a lot of
TIGER fixup needed. More and more websites depend
on OSM so it would be nice to provide more
accurate and updated info than what is there now.
Maps and GIS are going to be heavily relied on
especially after the storm.<br>
<br>
Common issues:<br>
<br>
- Streets that aren't there<br>
<br>
- Tracks marked as residential. Many tracks are
barely visible or edges of farms and should be
deleted.<br>
<br>
- Driveways marked as residential streets (should
be service).<br>
<br>
- Streets needing realignment.<br>
<br>
- Streets not connecting properly.<br>
<br>
<br>
An interesting site using OSM is <a

<br>
Storm chaser locations are shown on OSM in real
time and there are video feeds from some of them.
So that means you can get real time video of what
the ground looks like! Lots of flooding already
happening along the coast.<br>
