The basic issue is keeping two databases in somewhat sync.   If there is
KML, I would be inclined to have a combining step where the preferred
roads are matched up with OSM data by geometry and then the OSM ways
marked with the special tag (locally).   Here, any of id, name, or
shape/location could work.  shape/location is probably pretty stable.

This would be interesting in the long run, but seems very hard.


Is this other dataset also under OdbL and the merged dataset being
released under the same terms?
