Re: [talk-au] Australian bushwalking tracks
2009/9/22 Liz ed...@billiau.net: This is probably redundant, but water supplies should have a point identifier. If you are prepared to drink stream or river water, I hope you have what you need to make it safe. Depends where it is coming from, but dad always used to say if the horses would drink it, it was safe for us to drink. :) As for the suitability for bike or walking use, anyplace you can walk too, I can get my bicycle. I would appreciate things like staircases being marked, but I can walk them. If it is in the city and it has disabled access, I don't have to get off my bicycle. If you are bored enough you can also enter the number of steps, and I think it was on the main talk list but you should have the direction of the way from bottom to top of the stairs. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

The map I'm producing now show up on the Garmin as OSM street map, Area 63240001, Sep 2009. I'm using mkgmap to prepare it, and 63240001.img is an intermediate file produced on the way to the gmapsupp.img final Garmin file. So that label is applied somehow by mkgmap in my case. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

Regardless of what the talk list may have said, I think that half of the existing steps in the database are mapped in the ascending direction and half are mapped in the descending direction. So as the wiki page suggests, I'd tag direction=up/down on them. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
