OpenStreetMap
After a fair bit of effort these last few weeks, Aberdeen city is now complete in the eyes of ITO's OSM Analysis: http://www.itoworld.com/product/data/osm_analysis/area?name=Aberdeen+City
Obviously there's still a lot to do to get more detail into the Aberdeen map, which I continue to do, but it's quite a big step to at least have those named streets all there.
Now to continue with getting Aberdeenshire to the same state...

Be careful in interpreting this figure. I discovered a couple of people in my area were tracing streets from Bing and adding their names from Locator without checking to see whether the names in Locator were actually correct. In the case of some of the streets, I only discovered the discrepancies by accident while driving through on a non-surveying expedition.

Yeah, there was a fair bit of not:name adding to be done along the way for those roads I looked into, and there may still be some incorrect roads to be found yet. What's there is certainly a lot more accurate than Google Maps which in many areas seems to have some seemingly random street names!
