Wmm why can't we say: 1L for the leftmost lane 2L for the second lane from left 1R for the rightmost lane where left and right is seen in driving-direction. So then the 2 rightmode lane seperates you can talk about 1R and 2R. Peter Yann Coupin schrieb: Plus what does inner mean on a oneway

then we are closer as I thought. still mapping multiple parallel lanes with multiple lines is too difficult. consider a bestcase accuracy of +/- 2-3m with handheld gps and current areal pics. this is the size of a typical car lane. aligning many smaller structures is just magic guessing.
