OpenStreetMap Trail compatibility with Government Trail Data
summary
A Washington state case study compares the RCO government trails GIS with OSM trail data, finding 95% overlap at a coarse level, about 60% highly compatible, 35% needing attribution or naming work and under 5% genuinely discrepant; analysis uses GIS comparisons, tagging queries and a Mapet workflow plus Slack for rapid community fixes; key friction is OSM relation/operator tagging versus per-segment land manager fields in RCO; a proposed data pipeline would enrich OSM when compatibility remains high.
