The other thing that has come up is that there are a lot of TIGER edges that
do not correspond to OSM ways in either their old or new version In Indiana
most of these seem to be linear water. Were these intentionally excluded
from OSM? Or would it be useful to try to pick them up as part of the

That's not surprising if they last updated the NHD data between 1990

Eric,
I'm in general favor of your idea. I think that if we can get more
accurate, up to date data out of TIGER, then we should.
I'd strongly encourage you to join us on the OSM US Import Committee list:

Thanks for coming up with this; I've been hoping

Thanks for the helpful comments. At least anecdotally, I think I have
actually seen the TIGER merge lead to more anomalies in gridded areas than
in hills, maybe because people feel more comfortable making minor edits to
mostly-regular grids.
I completely agree that any new ways imported from
