[Talk-us] A new tracing layer for TIGER 2013

[Eric Fischer]

Thanks for the report!

Can you be a little more specific about what you want to show more contrast:

* Between TIGER roads and iD or JOSM roads?
* Between TIGER roads and the aerial imagery?
* Between TIGER roads and railroads?
* Between different classes of TIGER roads?
* Something else?

If you have a screenshot of two things that look alike to you and that
should be distinguishable, that would be a big help.

I don't think the 2012 TIGER layer uses any color at all, unless the color
was too subtle for me to see too.

Eric
