Remember that the goal here is community preparedness, not disaster response.
What happened in Haiti was a great use of OSM, but that was response, not
preparedness. If you are going to do community based mapping, the most valuable
thing to map is critical facilities and vulnerable populations.

We try to maintain zip code boundaries using existing parcel boundaries and a

The St Louis County Planning Department, St Louis Planning and Urban Design

I have found that in almost every case, the road really is officially named
"service road" or "frontage road" if the naming authority is a county or

generally belongs to the State, who gives the road a name like an official
