I have thought like this some time before, but this approach creates lots of problems and therefore I changed my mind: Where do you put fences, walls and other barriers that limit the landuse? On the road=highway? This cannot work, of course you will try to put them on their actual location: the landuse extents (in many cases) UP TO these barriers (or buildings, ...), then there is usually the sidewalk (in urban areas), then parked cars, grass-beds, and then finally the road. If you map the landuse connected to the roads you complicate life of everyone that comes after you and wants to add these details (like barriers, highway-areas, ...). cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ josm-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
