There is a basic dissent about the meaning of access=designated (and of the derived use of highway=footway, highway=cycleway). This is illustrated by repeated animated discussions on talk-de that merely outlined the opposing opinions but remained without result. The use of the tags in the database is just as inconsistent.
This proposal aims at resolving the dispute by displaying the different interpretations side by side and suggesting a new access tag as a technical solution to represent both intended meanings in the database without conflict. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Exclusive_usage_rights. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
