A fellow contributor has pointed out errors in the minor power lines I mapped. When I was first starting out, I was mapping lines which weren't actually part of a distribution grid, and single-cable power lines had guywires which I had mistaken for the cable itself.

This area has plenty of rookie mistakes I've made which have not been corrected since. It should be easy enough to find and correct these errors.

Thank you, Max. I've taken a look at the information on the tag of addr:state. It looks like the tag was constructed with the postal abbreviation in mind.

My changesets include the addition of addresses in Canada and it seems there's room for correction there as well. The convention north of the American border is to use the tag, addr:province instead of addr:state.

In this changeset, I've added several buildings to the campsite on Julius Drive. This arrangement is a rough estimate based on records found on Whatcom County's Property Assessor. A further survey will be useful in accurately aligning these buildings since aerial imagery shows obscuration by foliage.

I haven't plotted out the buildings in the RV area due to latest aerial imagery from Bing having been taken in July of 2020.

For the area surrounded by Julius Drive and Julius Place, I've tagged it as landuse:residential and added driveway paths as I could tell where they were.

The note at this area stated that the Aerial Imagery was not good enough for this part of the map. No doubt, the imagery does include roads obscured by surrounding trees. This does not necessarily mean that it's impossible to accurately plot out these roads.

Off Sunset Drive in the trees behind the houses on West Bluff Road, there are addresses pointing to one Alderwood Lane. These addresses were found on Whatcom County's Tax Parcel Viewer. A survey could be useful in this case.

way/5260089, previously named Ronald Drive, featured addresses naming it Periwinkle Lane instead. TIGER data seems to preserve it as Ronald Drive. With the addresses labeled as such, I've changed the road name to Periwinkle Lane while preserving Ronald Drive as an alternate name.

The names added in this changeset are from the documents found along with the tax parcel viewer.

The border crossing for Point Roberts was updated to include all lanes crossing through border control. Further scrutiny may be needed for the sake of accuracy.

At the border crossing, Roosevelt Way has been blocked off from Tyee Drive. This changeset was made with that in mind.

The name of the residential area is found in Whatcom County's public documents. The new buildings are condominiums and have therefore been tagged as apartments according to the standard for condos.

As for way/636594798, this building just across the border was drawn over distorted imagery and had to be corrected.

way/5256150 was called Abbott Road. Whatcom County's Parcel Viewer titled it Powell Place.

way/5262136 is Gulf View Crescent, and Aerial Imagery suggests that there's no continuance between Broughton Lane and Powell Place. Currently, I've named way/1005387935 as Gulf View Crescent as well, though it may just be part of Powell Place.

way/5257814 and way/1005387938 seem to share the same road name of Walters Lane.
