I am adding the codes used in TMC-messages to the
OSM-objects they represent.
The benefit are free traffic-announcements with
cheap consumer-hardware without internet-access
for every navigation-system that uses OSM.
Something we are currently lacking on the road
compared to even the cheapest commercial
navigation systems.
