Not comparable but I work at a traffic engineering firm where we develop software that enables our guys to gather roadway information from aerial photography of roads that we have the Dept. of Transportation fly. Our software allows us to see in 3d (stereo) on our monitors. We have to keep up with all the changes the D.O.T. does and make sure we know where to measure when we are building a roadway inventory. Local names, bridge numbers, shoulder type(s), width, roadway angles, roadway types (asphault, concrete, etc), median widths and type (lawn, painted, paved, etc), inside shoulders, outside shoulders, if it is curb and gutter, valley gutter, plain gutter, deleted roadway sections, sub sections, realignments on the road, bridge lengths and widths, U.S. road #'s, State Road #'s, County Road #'s. I run all this through another program and have to make a straight line diagram (SLD) out of it that allows me to fit all the information we inputed on 1-6 pages of 11x17 paper. I need to know where everything is supposed to fall in place and what road shields to use, what doesn't need to be there and what does. In the end..someone can take my 1-6 pages and drive down the road and be able to read and see each place the road has any slight change. You still with me? I do a lot of other stuff at work but that is the most confusing part because it is always changing.
