It's already rectified Geog Lon/Lat WGS-84.
I overlayed the OSM road shapefile and it's a perfect match.
What we need at the moment is to trace roads using a trial-version (30
days) of Memory Map. Export he trace to gpx and then add to OSM via
JOSM.
Anybody else willing to do digitizing? Maybe we can have meet-up to look
at the data (its huge over a few gigs, so I can't send them over the
web). And a good excuse to have good beer again ;)
