I no longer work for Teleatlas, anyone looking to hire a navigation and routing database specialist : )

I was thinking of loaning my GPS rig to some deserving mapper if there was some way to guarantee that I would get it back.

When deleting A15 roadways in tiger data, you will find to your dismay that the offending roadway extended over a couple of tiles. Seems major roads in tiger, as brought in to O.S.M. are Verrrrrry long. What does Tiger say?
Meow.

When using potlatch it seems Yahoo is trying to gather my phone number as well as my credit card info, so my firewall warns me. Running ethereal on the PPPoe shows a lot of interesting activity as well. Not much idea what it means but very entertaining.
Have no idea why they would need my credit card, kind of eerie.

I've done extensive reworking of "my area" of the Upper Valley of the Connecticut River on the New Hampshire - Vermont Border. What a mess! Tiger was dropped as a layer over my previously uploaded data. Think I may have sorted a lot of it out, though no doubt a good amount is left to be done, getting a neck ache from it all. I guess my wish would be for Tiger not to be reintroduced in this area anytime soon. Tried to keep what was best of both datasets. One way to keep editors happy is to not nuke "their" data. Tiger had (and has) many significant errors here. Naming is one, missing new construction, and a spectacular mis-conflation of a major roadway, all in a days fun for Tiger, seems as Tiger has updated there data possibly from O.S.M. in one instance noted. On another note I notice the online applet editor know has copyright data from Navteq and Tele Atlas. Thought they were evil incarnate, at least according to the talk digest. Guess it's only a matter of time before forking private and getting all that free editor content and making money off of it. Perhaps they could pay me to enhance O.S.M. data.

Put in a fair amount of data, and Viola! Tiger was conflated on top of it, I guess thats what you get when your in a hurry : ( I thought I'd go back in and clean it up. Relearning the J.O.S.M. thingamabob. Played on the user profile the map doohickey seems to need some help, the map on this blog is also on the fritz. I wonder what Tiger 2010 will bring.
