Do you store all the tracks, or do you conflate them into road axis? I mean: if a truck has gone through a road twelve times, do you store twelve lines or just one? Is there a way to get just one line per road? > • our users cannot use the official OSM editor for several reasons (to > complicated, no direct access to our tracks,...) Depending on your Java expertise, you could program some JOSM plugin.

Looky here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_v0.6 Whenever you (successfully) upload a new way, you get the way ID in return. No problem there. -- Iván Sánchez Ortega <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
