yeah, that's their cheap-and-dirty renderer: they have a prettier one as well, which takes more time and is well behind...

it's doable from a car, assuming the reception is ok, my GPS device can be told to take a point every 10 metres or whatever. these traces then fit nicely over the aerial photography they have, and i then build the points and lines and i can name roads based on my notes.

so far i'm just sticking to doing simple residential streets. i may try to sort out the Tottenham Hale/Monument Way junction with Ferry Lane at some point (which is currently missing), but that looks terribly complicated.
