I need some help with a related problem. The import for Fort McMurray also turned out aweful. I have spent hours going around connecting all the disconnected nodes to ways, deleting duplicate nodes/ways, adding trails, etc. so that the JOSM error checker does not return any errors. All of these

Hi all, There are a lot of unconnected ways, created when GeoBase road matcher found a match with existing data and did not connect new nodes. With the work I have been doing with distance maps, I have inadvertantly found a way to speed up the fixing of these - still by hand, but pretty quick ot
