Hi, Dan,
Despite the fact that most hamlets are reached
by something as wide as a vehicle. it doesn't seem to be the case for the
houses at the upper left.
Also it doesn't make sense for a road to become a path and
then a road
again (though, I guess it's possible).
I think it's likely that the houses at the upper left are
reached only by
a path. The open areas in the front of them are probably ground beaten down
by repeated foot traffic, not by vehicle use.
That's my take. I wonder what others think.

Hi all,
Just having a mini discussion with another mapper about road vs path.
We're both familiar with the Highway Tagging Africa scheme, but we
drew different conclusions about the particular routes we were looking
at. So it'd be handy if anyone wants to comment on road-vs-path for this
location:

And, who knows, maybe it would be suitable to use as an example for
future mappers, since we didn't intuitively come to the same conclusions.
Thanks
Dan
