You are challenging the existence of an established set of tools in the
OpenStreetMap community with your hunches, so the burden of proof is on you.
But I’ll at least debunk your assertions, please see below.

MapRoulette gets help to some of the remote, forgotten
Well, I have to admit, I've only seen one problem with the armchair mapping
with the smoothing in my local area of Pittsburgh, PA so far.
What happened was a long time ago, I cleanup up US-19 and separated segments
that were divided and segments that had a 'Center Turn Lane' and tagged as

Hello Dave. On the contrary
I was bored so I think I cleaned up most of the village. It's easy to see
what the mapper really intended with some basic mapping experience and
knowledge of how streets are normally placed. Of course a survey is needed
for poi's, but it's not needed to change a strange way to the side at the

In almost all other science and technology fields we use instrumentation to
allow us to see what would otherwise be too dangerous, expensive or just
impossible to see with our unaided human senses. Mapping is no different.
We use satellite (more generically overhead) imagery to see areas where
