We've got both the TIGER database and Yahoo! imagery to use, let's get cracking! You gonna let these Brits, French, German, Norwegian, etc. run circles around us?

I lost about 100 miles of tracing I-10 through New Mexico and Texas (from the Yahoo! satellite images), once due to hitting the escape button, and once because my computer froze. Damn. And now I'm getting a lot of packet loss, so it's slow going. But because "roadways" show up at all magnification levels, it's rewarding to plot interstates, you see real results every Thursday.

I really don't know how useful the TIGER data is going to be, at least for the streets. It's way more inaccurate than tracing the Yahoo! satellite images. Maybe good for the street names in an unfamiliar area.
