[OSM-talk] Picher and Senica

[Peter Miller]

I have given Picher, Oklahoma and Senica a minor cleanup following their
hitting the headlines.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7394402.stm

 

I have sorted some of the geometry, updated some highway tags and corrected
some obvious errors in the rail network. I have also converted railway=spur
to railway=rail so that the lines as least render and meet current tagging
rules. Should the country road grid in an area like this be tertiary or
secondary I wonder (I haven't touched it so far)?

 

I have requested a re-render by Osmarender of both areas.  If anyone wants
to find it Picher is 'village 13km north east of Miami'

&lon=-94.8308&zoom=13&layers=B0FT

 

Should we patrol the news and make sure that places that hit the news are up
to a good standard?

 

 

 

Regards,
