Lanaʻi: This is a small island with a relatively limited road network, concentrated mostly in a single small, central town. It looks like there has been extensive manual editing of the road network, and it seems to correspond fairly well to the satellite photos.
Molokaʻi: The coastline data seems to be fairly accurate. The road network on this island seems to have had little or no manual editing since it was imported from TIGER in 2007. The roads appear to be displaced approximately 300m to the west and 400m to the north, based on on the satellite photos. Maui: The coastline data seems to be fairly accurate. I spot checked a number of locations in the road network, including Lahaina, Kahului, Wailuku, Haleakala Highway, and Hana Highway. Every placed I checked had not been manually edited since it was imported from TIGER in 2007, and seems to have the same NNW displacement as seen on Molokaʻi. Next steps for Lanaʻi, Molokaʻi, and Maui: I think Lanaʻi can be left as is. Given that there has been little or no substantial manual editing of the road networks of Molokaʻi and Maui, and these islands both suffer from a substatial offset (presumably due to an incorrect datum in the initial import), I suggest that we remove all roadways from the previous TIGER import, and re-import from the latest TIGER data, ensuring that it uses the correct datum. I don't have the necessary expertise to do the removal and re-import. Is there anyone on the list who can take on this task? -Sctt On Fri, Oct 2, 2009 at 12:39 PM, Scott Atwood <scott.roy.atw...@gmail.com>wrote: > Lehua: > This is a tiny, uninhabited islet off the coast of Niʻihau.
