AL134 wp US431_N and US431 wp AL134/173 should be synced (btw: why 173 in wp name?)

134 and 173 are concurrent, with 173 ending here. I think that's an artifact of 134 previously running through Headland on Church Street, as I seem to recall it doing maybe 10 years or so ago. (I used to drive this part of US 431 pretty frequently.)

Though by the same token, I suppose that also means AL134's waypoint AL173 should be renamed to AL173_N.

The ones that do not get flagged is part of why I have been doing an overhaul of the routes in PA and DE.  I still have not touched HDX to this point.

Well, we use the nmp files for exactly this! HDX is used to visualize the NMPs. If there are unintended NMPs even more apart... I think Jim has offered to change the threshold to any desired value. E.g. creating al.nmp with a different threshold just for the check. It's surely quicker checking these point only instead of checking all points.

However, when I review a system, I check NMP file in HDX first, and do another round with checking that all "links" are indicated in HB. Checking all labels of all routes which should have links, that they really have them. If not, coordinates are different and are usually NMPs just with a bigger distance than our standard threshold. In addition, I use this manual check to figure out that the label names are complete - e.g. in case of more than one intersecting route.

There are many way. Just do it the way you think it's the best for you!

Another possiblity is adding a commandline argument to use a custom threshold.

There are some LABEL_SELFREF errors: http://travelmapping.net/devel/datacheck.php?sys=null&rg=AL

I see some confusion on city suffixes when used to disambiguate multiple intersections with same-numbered routes. In these cases, Add a suffix with an underscore and those 3 letters. Otherwise, a plain "AL52Opp" or "US98Bro_E" would imply a banner of "Opp" or "Bro", or that they correspond to "AL52Opp" or "US98Bro" in the HB, of which we have none. (In usaal, only AL53Dot has a city abbrev + no banner.)
I ran a search to provide the "Good" examples:

Underscores, and city suffixes. Looking good for the most part.

As an aside before moving on, I noticed the _SB and _NB examples, and looked into them. This defies the usual principle of tracing down the "median" of a couplet, and having one point on the intersecting route at that median. There'd be the occasional example for something with really whacked-out geometry, but this is overkill in a straightforward situation like this.
Suggest combining into one point at the existing point where the route traces cross, with AL81_SB as an AltLabel on US80.

Back to the suffix issue, here are the labels that turned up as something in need of attention.
It's possible that some items could have been left out of the search; anything where Alt, Bus, Byp, Trk, Spr or Con referred to a city.

Hey guys, I found a naming convention issue on AL 283.  Currently, the south end point is shown as BUS411, but to conform across the site, I think it should be US411BusCen with the route, then banner, then city 1st three letters.

Or just vanilla US411Bus, as that's the only branch of US411Bus that AL281 intersects.

Heh. The existence of that route looks a bit silly. I guess ALDOT must not be too fond of business state routes, AL21BusMon aside.

Speaking of AL21BusMon, Drewry Road has been relocated southward. In Esri WorldImagery, the scar left over from the old route is pretty freshly visible, heading into the current waypoint.
Suggest one waypoint at the new Drewry Rd intersection, and tweaking the existing waypoint to IvySt, which should be close enough for those who want to mark the old alignment.

AL 14 actually crosses I-65 at exit 181 and goes down Fairview Ave. to US31 than proceeds south to US82. I drove it yesterday.

I'd argue that CR6Cas CR30Wal CR45Gre CR14Mon etc. is the correct way to disambiguate same-numbered routes in multiple counties (assuming those are county name abbreviations). If disambiguation isn't necessary...probably don't.

Finally realized there was a standardization guide all along...  :P

I agree.

Not sure how to go about very similar county names on the same route; US 280 passing through Talladega and Tallapoosa Counties might be the only issue for Alabama, and road names exist for the most prominent of that route category.



How should Alternate US 72 be denoted in shorthand? Many routes show ALT72, but "US72Alt" follows the format.

AL 9
CR66San -> CR66Elm (Elmore County, instead of minor place name)
CR66Nee -> CR66Clay (Clay County, instead of minor place name)
BUS411 -> US411Bus (only crosses US 411 Business once, don't need to mention the town of Centre)

Hey guys, I found a naming convention issue on AL 283.  Currently, the south end point is shown as BUS411, but to conform across the site, I think it should be US411BusCen with the route, then banner, then city 1st three letters.

AL 13
CR22 -> CR22_N
CR22Spr -> CR22_S (same road and county; both unnamed, labelled "22")
US72/ALT72 -> US72/72Alt (or is that redundant...thoughts?)
RoyalAve -> RoyAve
CourtSt - > CouSt

AL 14
MLKDr -> MLKingDr

AL 17
RoyalAve -> RoyAve
CourtSt - > CouSt
CR22Spr - > CR22Fra (located in Franklin County; same point as above in AL 13 - though 2 different CR22s in AL 17's HB)

AL 20 and US72AltDec
Would recommend two points be added...one for each route
JefSt (Jefferson Street in Courtland) >>  https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/34.67948/-87.35273
 - Leads to west end of town, former alignment of US 72Alt/20.

AL 21
MontRegAir -> MonRegAir

AL 22
Just drove this route last weekend through Maplesville - looks like AL 22 now goes though Foshee Avenue, following the Truck Route on GSV. There's no "AL 22/139 Truck" on ALDOT. Unfortunately, no camera, no proof, so this might have to wait.

AL 24
OldAL24 -> CR460 (signed that way, also used as a consistent description for points on AL 33 and AL 101)
*OldAL24Red -> Eliminate, doesn't point to anything, and not labelled as such. Perhaps use Winnie Frost Road (WinFroRd) instead?

AL 33
US72ALT/20 -> US72Alt/20

AL 34
CoveAceRd -> CoveAccRd (street sign is spelled properly according to GSV, incorrect in OSM and Google Maps...or just use CR332)

AL 35
PineRidRd -> CR835 (as this is Old AL 35, preserve continuity with other side of old alignment, which should probably also have a point)

Not sure if CR44 is necessary, doesn't lead to much.

Would recommend a point for Airport Road (AirRd), as it's traffic-light controlled and rather busy (from experience). The little airport isn't busy, but the route serves as a defacto bypass to US 11.

Note to self that AL 180 has been turned back east of AL 161 per the January 2019 Baldwin County Milepost Map (which incidentally retains AL 135).

(EDIT). I'll need to fix AL 149 as well.
