Hi, Maybe could help if we classified highways tags by scenario:
- Urban (vehicules): residencial, service, living_street - Urban (people): path (natural), footway (pedestrian) - Rural (vehicules): track(tracktype) - Rural (people): path - interconecting highways between towns: unclassified, terciary It seems road tag is temporarily in the mean while we get knowledge about what type of highway is. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Droad If possible some pictures on ground could be useful to discussion. 2012/9/6 Jaakko Helleranta.com <[email protected]> > Hi again, > > I can't access net to have links/quotes to back up my "claim" but unless I > have completely misunderstood things highway=road is meant for situations > where the mapper -- most typically tracing area s/he doesn't know, or > simply not knowhing how to categorize something -- implies an unresolved rd > class with the tag. > > I think it's a pretty common misunderstanding that =road would be a > "generic road", though. > > Wrong/right/none-of-the-above? > > -Jaakko > > Sent from my BlackBerry® device from Digicel > -- > Mobile: +509-37-26 91 54, Skype/GoogleTalk: jhelleranta > > -----Original Message----- > From: Séverin MENARD <[email protected]> > Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2012 22:16:43 > To: <[email protected]> > Subject: [HOT] Remote mapping tagging > > _______________________________________________ > HOT mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot > > _______________________________________________ > HOT mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot >
