National Park standards
Looking at a few of the national parks, there does not appear to be a clear standard or consistency.
There is also inconsistency in abbreviations. example NP, Natl PK, national park ect. Inconsistency in features pt or area places, ect. I think the parks are one of the areas where a national standard and not a local standard should be applied. Due to the unique world visitor draw.
There is also many small edits that need to be corrected but have not, I believe this is because the lack of data converge prevents many editors for having the parks in their drive areas thus can not make the corrections to even L1 roads.
A perfect example is Two Medicine Rd in Glacier NP.

The entire area is still using the 2009 base map. There are a few sections at the park entrance that were updated by WarhawkTrombone, I am guessing he had signal for a short time.
For routing people to the larger parks. (Yellowstone, Glacier, Shenandoah, ect)
Should we make the user select which entrance to choose? or park area? or maybe only have specific attractions listed?
Example, for Yellow stone, instead of navigating to "Yellowstone NP" the search list would populate
Yellowstone NP Old Faithfull Inn
Yellowstone NP Lake Yellowstone Hotel
Yellowstone NP Canyon Lodge
Yellowstone NP Grant village
Yellowstone NP Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel
And major features? (Paint Pot, Artician Pt, ect)
