[Talk-us] Mapathon Results - Spartanburg SC

[Mike N]

Hi,

    We had a mapathon coordinated by 
https://tasks.openstreetmap.us/project/76 to visually inspect all roads 
and update them from GIS data as appropriate.   Much of the GIS data was 
newer and there were many road name corrections (names or Road -> 
Avenue, Drive -> Street, etc). In addition there were many residential 
cases of single>dual carriageway or dual>single, blocked streets, etc. 
Some of the GIS road data was out of date or incorrect - we may try to 
feed it back to them if we can find a contact who has the time.

   In any case, more automated conflation techniques can now be applied 
to that area for more focused updates since the roads conform to reality.
