Re: [Talk-us] Wrangell, AK streets
Alright well I went ahead and did this tonight. It still isn't perfect but it is MUCH better. For those who didn't look, here is a before/after shot. The before is from OpenCycleMap since it hasn't re-rendered the area yet. That looks much better. Now I can trace the Alaska Marine Highway into Wrangell. - David E.

Re: [Talk-us] Wrangell, AK streets
You may wish to try that out. You might want to also look at the street data for the rest of the communities served by the Alaska Marine Highway System, as I intend to eventually draw the rest of those ferry routes, and I need to know exactly where each dock is. - David E.

[Talk-us] Wrangell, AK streets
I've run into a bit of a wrinkle plotting the routes of the Alaska Marine Highway System. The street data for Wrangell, AK seems to have been horribly mangled. - David E. Nelson___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us

The street data for Wrangell, AK seems to have been horribly mangled. When pointing out a place on the mailing lists, it is always useful to include a permalink. I assume you are talking about this area? http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=56.4782lon=-132.3743zoom=14layers=M I see no mangling of OSM data here, just unedited TIGER roads. This is particularly terrible TIGER data though. Some roads are off by over 300 meters. Since there are only a handful of ways that have been touched by a human, I could do a complete reimport of the city from 2012 TIGER data. The 2012 data seems to have an offset of less than 10 meters compared to Bing and for all I know, that might be Bing's fault. Either way it would be a massive improvement. Thoughts?
