Hi everyone, I'm new to all this, only joining the group yesterday, so I think I'm positing to the discussion correctly. If not, let me know.
That aside, is the aim to investigate all red boxes and typically add the road? Also, with regards to the green boxes that show near matches, any chance you could say why it's a near match i.e. is it the spelling of the road name, classification, or possibly the location of the road.

Why is this? In many cultures, green is considered a sign of "good", "OK", or "everything's fine". You can see this usage for instance in our traffic lights. Hence a green OSL entry -> one that's fine. Facetiousness aside, I am going to add a non-authoritative mode which shows bad matches first, but I still think it's important to show _all_ OSL entries in authoritative mode. I have tried to tone down the "near perfect" matches to be less "bright green" but they can still appear quite bright when there are many overlapping. > Also, how often is this data updated these days? Nightly with the odd extra update in the daytime if I want to try something out. robert. _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
