Thanks for the feedback about colors in JOSM. I can clearly see now that what made for good contrast in iD is hard to use in JOSM. I'll try some new styles today and make sure they stand out in both editors. I think maybe the answer is to put a casing around the line so that it has a different

Thanks for the report! Can you be a little more specific about what you want to show more contrast: * Between TIGER roads and iD or JOSM roads? * Between TIGER roads and the aerial imagery? * Between TIGER roads and railroads? * Between different classes of TIGER roads? * Something else? If you

As was just announced on the MapBox blog ( https://www.mapbox.com/blog/openstreetmap-tiger/) there is a new OpenStreetMap tracing layer for 2013 Census Bureau TIGER map data in the US. The main reason for it, aside from incorporating this year's TIGER changes, is to provide different features at
