generate printed maps. JOSM shows everything but isn't the most user friendly interface for nontechnical users, I'm not quite sure why you want to map the precise place where the marker appears. Cheerio John On 13 October 2014 19:51, Bill Leddy b...@williesworkshop.net wrote: Thanks John

Hi all, I have a question about how to handle a situation where a street section is temporarily closed for construction but it will likely be so for several months. Is it best to mark access as no to cars, bikes and peds or what? Regards, Bill Leddy

[OSM-newbies] Cycleway or Footway

2015-02-12 Thread Bill Leddy
Hi All, I've got a separated way on a highway bridge. It's not marked specifically as a cycleway but it is connected to a cycleway. It's essentially a wide sidewalk. So which would be the best way to tag it, as highway=cycleway + foot=yes or highway=foot + bicycle=yes? Regards, Bill

Using JOSM, you use the drawing tools to more or less follow your traces, then apply tags. The trace is a layer underneath your new way data. Regards, Bill Leddy On Apr 15, 2015, at 7:21 PM, Bill Kathy Patterson bill_patter...@tricolour.queensu.ca wrote: I uploaded two GPS tracks
