That is why you need humans to import it.   And that is why I want a
feedback system which I yet have to make.  We should mark bad source
data in OSM with a key/value combination.

And we need to mark bad GRB data as well and make this available to the
public.  I'll not be entering a case is LARA for every error I find.

We need to think about the next mapper as well, so if someone sees a
structure doesn't match GRB , I want to prevent him from (bring to
attention) from creating an error, rather that recognise OSM has better
data.  I see this a lot: structures with wrong dimension.

But that is exactly why we don't blindly import stuff.
