I’ve generally found very good correspondence between srtm and osm, in hilly 
areas the hillshading made the map much more readable, and especially the parts 
without trees growing on them made much more sense (as you could see that they 
were on the hilltops and oriented to the same direction).

I can’t imagine editing height raster data based on osm though, how would you 
do it? This implies moving bits quite a lot probably, because you won’t even 
notice 5 or 10 meters in 30 or 90m grid data. I would expect global coverage 3D 
scan data to be more reliable than osm and would rather do the opposite (adjust 
osm to fit hillshading).
