Hi Peter,
good stuff, and I agree with your view that we should tag the human
understandable levels. I'm not aware how how precisely these map to
the layers tag (I'd always assumed that this was a hint to the
renderer rather that conveying semantic information), however I see
how that would work.

Fulfilling a very small niche, I've added a (very short) page for
monorails
(in the UK): http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/United_Kingdom_monorails
we should build more monorails so we can map more monorails ...

The page for the tag
In the absence of a vast building program of new monorails[1] as
proposed by Bill Ricker, I am beginning to think about mapping some of
the more complex transport interchanges here in the UK. I am currently
adding platforms, walkways and steps to the simpler stations that I
know and am

Hi all,
I just added a new introduction to the Public Transport page (
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Public_transport), trying to give an
overview of what public transport is and why it should be added to OSM.
Whilst doing this, I had a quick play with Google's Public Transit map
service,
Google Transit draws from the NCSD - National Coach Services Database -
which comes in with the regional traveline data.
I suspect ATOC don't want to get their data on google maps because they

The question for me is: could OSM fill in this 'gap' of functionality that

There's an old conversation at

Um, I've forgotten which way round it goes! (Desperately trying to
remember,
or at least Google the answer)...
the angle of mantenance spur tells ... do they back onto or off of the
main-line ?
Um?
I suspect that we ought to add
