The forecast looks pretty good for things to dry out and as they do we’ll likely need some help updating our road infrastructure. Interested OpenStreetMap contributors can visit <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2013_Colorado_Floods">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2013_Colorado_Floods</a> for more information. Also there is currently some discussion on the Talk-US list on best practices for tagging the damaged/destroyed roads which I have tried to capture and will update on the wiki as consensus is reached.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thank you,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>=Russ<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="mailto:russdeffner@gmail.com">russdeffner@gmail.com</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>russdeffner on OSM<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
