Subproject: ensuring all official roads are on the map
A simplified approach: just check if all the official road names are on the OSM map at least somewhere. This detects both entirely missing roads and miss-spelled OSM roads.
1) Select all named roads by community in OSM Flanders
2) Select all named roads by community in Wegenregister Flanders
3) If a named road in Wegenregister is not available in OSM:
a) create a microtask for Maproulette fixing
b) create a dataset to feed a mapping layer
Note: sometimes, the name on the street sign might differ from the official road name. In gov logic, the official name is always correct. In OSM logic, the street sign is always correct. To allow for special cases like this, a tag indicating a different official name might be needed.
