Almost to Cerbat Rd
Almost as far south as Mineral Rd. I'm taking the single way and moving it to the north bound lanes. After I reach Kingman, I'll create the southbound way.
Comparing US 93 to track logs and Yahoo images. Started at the Dam and working south.
Looked at the primary road between these two towns. I'm not sure I added much vallue on this one.
Made it to Camp Verde.
I'm tracing I-17 starting in Flagstaff and heading south. In this context, tracing is:
1) adjusting the OSM motorway (mostly TIGER) to match Yahoo image,
2) adding a north (or south) bound motorway were OSM has only one way for this divided freeway,
3) adjusting motorway_links to match Yahoo image,
4) adjusting ways that connect to motorway_links to give a smooth transition to the existing ways, and
5) adding bridge and layer tags where needed.
Antigua Guatemala
Question: What to do with waypoints and notes from a couple of trips to Guatemala?
Answer: Add information to OSM!
OSM already had a few ways. I added some more by tracing Yahoo arial photos. Most of my efforts were around Panajachel, Antigua Guatemala, and La Ciudad de Guatemala.
The street center line data maintained by Clark County GIS is public. Clark County is now a data conversion project.
Split ways. Changed bridge and layer tags.
This one doesn't make sense unless I also fix St Rose Pky and I just don't want to work on that today.
Split ways. Changed bridge and layer tags. Modified one motorway_link (by eye, the coordinates were not checked against a GPS.

Split ways. Changed bridge and layer tags.
Split I-215 to show the bridge over E Robindale Rd and the bridge over the dry wash to the south.
Divided ways to show bridges and set layer values.
I split I-15, I-215, and the motorway links at bridges and added bridge tags. I also added layer information for this interchange. This "leaked" north to Twain but the bridges, layers, etc. aren't complete there.
TIGER data doesn't match reality here. The alignment of Blue Diamond Rd was changed so that traffic can flow smoothly onto Windmill Ln. The realignment also forced a change to the motorway links.
A piece of Blue Diamond Rd was renamed W Moberley Ave.
OSM was edited to match these changes. I also renamed part of Blue Diamond Rd to "old Blue Diamond Rd". This easement may not exist any more but the asphalt is still there so I didn't want to delete the road from OSM.
