Hi Tom, I'd consider this particular proposed use of highway=no to mean "there is a public highway here but there's no visible path on the ground" to be a somewhat country-specific and counter-intuitive tagging practice. It's certainly being suggested here as a solution to a country-specific issue regarding the mapping of England and Wales' rights of way network.
Perhaps other countries do use highway=no in this manner but it isn't well documented and I could hardly blame consumers of OSM data from not interpreting it correctly. Kind regards, Adam On Tue, 5 May 2020, 09:59 Tom Hukins, <t...@eborcom.com> wrote: > On Mon, May 04, 2020 at 11:08:16PM +0100, Adam Snape wrote: > > Most data consumers won't be expecting this highly country-specific > > tagging of highway=no > > Why do you consider "highway=no" country-specific?
