Hi Michael,

The existing roads were probably based on Landsat, the geometric
accuracy of which is lower than Spot-6. So if you feel that adjustment
is needed, the pre-existing road should probably be adjusted. This would
also make it possible to have a consistent geometry for tracing streets
and buildings within villages and towns.

Best wishes,

Jean-Guilhem
