Hello I would like to contribute that in Missouri the data is extremely
bad.. Especially in the Rural South Central Ozark area I work in. Our
agency is doing a pilot project for the Missouri Dept. of Transportation.
We are doing GPS centerline and bridge data. We have found whole bunches of
different roads. Roads (old ones) that are not even listed in anyones maps.
New ones that are interesting and not listed in anyones maps.
So if you work in the rural areas be aware of this problem. Carol
