Code Review

In Atlas, OSM elements are represented as Edges, Points, Lines, Nodes, Areas & Relations;

Our first goal is to validate the incoming Atlas Object.

  • Must be a valid Atlas Entity
  • Must have addr:street

Our second goal is to analyze the addr:street to ensure that road type is not abbreviated and fully spelled out.

To learn more about the code, please look at the comments in the source code for the check.
