[Talk-ca] Trans-Canada Highway research

[Matthew Darwin]

Hi Olivia,

I spent some fixing tags on TCH ways in *Ontario* in the last few 
weeks.  Do an overpass query on nat_name=Trans-Canada Highway in 
Ontario (see below).

Is it possible to build a query that shows ways with 
nat_name=Trans-Canada Highway and not part of the relation, and 
vice-versa.  It would make the task of fixing the routes easier.  Also 
if the query was built into OSMOSE or another error checker then we 
can have some hope it is less likely to get out of sync in the future.

Also it is not clear if Highway 17A is part of the TCH or not.  
Wikipedia says yes, comments in OSM say it is not.  Some research is 
needed here I guess.

I am willing to help in Ontario.

[out:xml][timeout:100];
{{geocodeArea:Ontario}}->.searchArea;
(
     way["nat_name"](area.searchArea);
);
(._;>;);
out meta;
