Thanks very much for doing this - I've been quite curious about where we're up to. I had guessed we were about on par - so this is good news. I've been doing a fair bit of aerial mapping lately - not sure whether remapping or not. I tend to be pretty conservative with road classifications on a first pass. Later, I might look at the area and upgrade a couple of the roads.
