Hi all,

You may remember my TIGER 2011 rendered tile layer that's based on TIGER
shapefiles from late 2011. TIGER recently updated to include data from
2012, so I imported that data and have a new tile layer here:

http://tile.osm.osuosl.org/tiles/tiger2012_roads/preview.html#17/41.93708/-87.70124


I feel stupid, but I tried that in JOSM as an image lary, as well as 
some variations, but couldn't get it to work.  Is there any way to make 
it work as JOSM imagery?

this is the imagery url. I have just copied the 2011 setting and replaced the 
year and it works for me.

Very nice. The 2011 tiles have been an extremely helpful mapping aid
which I use all the time and am glad for the update.

  That works, thanks very much!   One complication was that JOSM cached 
the failures from my earlier guesses in my area of interest, so when I 
tried the correct version nothing was even downloaded until I moved 
outside of that area.

on the subject of TIGER (2010, 2011, 2012). on the OSM US board last year we
at one point had a discussion about whether 2010 was really an improvement
over the TIGER that had previously been imported, and we were having trouble
finding examples of improvement.

i can now say that TIGER 2011/2012 is definitely improved in Warren County
New York, and i'm going to start studying how to do a safe replacement of
unedited data with newer TIGER data in the area -- the unedited older TIGER
data there now is pretty iffy.

Excellent, thanks Ian. i have found the 2011 tiles quite useful and will 
certainly

switch over to the 2012 tiles now.
