Yep, this is how I understood that guideline to be. So if you have a polygon where there was just a node before representing the same thing, you're free to delete the node in favor of the polygon assuming no data (i.e., tag info) is lost. Here's what the wiki says [1] One feature, one OSM-object

[Tagging] Railway routes in different directions.

2010-09-23 Thread Dave F.
Hi I've a railway routes that's drawn as a single line with a relation added; except where the tracks become wider apart to go each side of a platform where they are two lines. Does routing software need the relation to differentiate between the directions? Up/Down, Forward/Backward? And

Re: [Tagging] Railway routes in different directions.

2010-09-23 Thread Richard Mann
The proper way to do it is to have separate relations in each direction, probably named for the origin and destination (ie not calling it the up Bristol and the down Bristol, but calling it the Bristol-London and London-Bristol service). Alternatively, put all the ways in one relation and put

Hi. At first, I would say, there is no railway routing algorithm similar to one for cars or pedestrians. There even is no allowed direction of one of the routes usually. So I would do it the following way: - the track should be tagged as one single line, divided into two different lines

2010-09-23 Thread Nathan Edgars II
If it's a continuous double-track line, it should ideally be mapped as parallel tracks. This may not be possible due to low resolution aerials. It's important to note that many railroads use a signaling system that allows a train in either direction to occupy any track, depending on traffic
