Sounds like the validator should take into account the type of features in this case, right? I'm all for joining nodes of like feature types (like landuse to landuse), but it shouldn't tell you (let you?) join landuse to highway. From a technical standpoint, the land parcels do indeed usually extend out to the centerline of the roadway, but an easement is granted to the city/county/state for the road, utilities, etc., and the area within the easement may not be built upon by the landowner. IMO, that should exclude the area within the easement from the landuse boundary. -- Alan Mintz <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ josm-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
