Remember that quiz show Catchphrase presented by the Irish comedian who's er... catchphrase was "say what you see"? I think that's appropriate for tagging in OSM When looking at the picture you sent you should ask yourself 'what does that look like?' How many would say "Oh that's a ramp" compared with bridge/walkway etc? As it's elevated above the ground it should also have a bridge=* tag, of which I feel viaduct is the most accurate. Instead of ramp maybe incline would suit? http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:incline Don't be put off with the picture of a road, it can be used in this instance. cheers Dave F. _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
