I'm still unsure how to handle rural areas at street/primary level
Rural areas at Highway level im clear that they should not be entered in the primary.
Use this as an example

IN this case:
- Client will find it, and will be able to navigate to it.
- Client will also display city names and built up areas correctly.
- Zoomed out levels also wont look over complicated.

Or is it a user based traffic assessment app that you use in your local area to get around current problem spots?
Both.
But it doesn't do the first very well. Having said that its getting better.

I've been to Whangarei a number of times over the past year but haven't done any editing up that way for ages. Having a look now, I have no rights north of Puwera/Otaika where I went a few weeks ago. Anyone else been losing editing rights around the country?
