track changes for streets #22

Description

@kpwebb

Per conversation with @migurski et al here's our draft proposal for "track changes":

As street networks change, the SharedStreets referencing system updates ShStRefs for altered or newly created streets, and generates metadata describing the changes. Users subscribe to change event metadata allowing internal street-linked data to stay in sync with current street definitions.

Change events include:

  • Addition of newly created, or previously unmapped street segments;
  • Deletion of streets that have been removed (or were incorrectly mapped)
  • Alteration of streets, including changes in geometry/length (due to improved mapping), or reclassification.
  • Splitting of existing street references into multiple segments due to the creation of a new intersecting street segment.

Changes in OpenStreetMap are tracked continuously based on OSM changeset events. Changes can also be submitted from registered SharedStreets users that maintain proprietary or government street basemaps. Users can submit new SSRs and metadata without sharing underlying map information.
