I'd like to start with California and Arizona (70 nodes), and add notes where on-site survey is needed to exactly align to the OSM base layer.
What's different about this import is that armchair mappers can get only so far, verifying press releases and such. The features are too small to spot even on the best available air photos (e.g. better than the Bing ones). Even the street cameras are not generally enough: this really takes in person spotting.
