[Tagging] Variable max speed corridors
Variable max speed corridors are nothing new for Europe, but they apparently are a novelty for the US. Is there an established tagging convention for this? http://www.katu.com/news/local/Variable-speed-limit-signs-are-coming-to-Portland-136326623.html -- martijn van exel geospatial omnivore 1109 1st ave #2 salt lake city, ut 84103 801-550-5815 http://oegeo.wordpress.com ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Is there an established tagging convention for this? There's been one in Orlando for several years. I tagged it with the maximum possible speed and added a note. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Is there an established tagging convention for this? There's been one in Orlando for several years. I tagged it with the maximum possible speed and added a note. I saw some along I-80 in Wyoming. I believe they lower the speed based on weather conditions. Unfortunately I don't think I actually tagged it but this is certainly useful information. I would agree that maxspeed=* should be left alone and another specific tag should be used. Perhaps the tag value could contain the reason for the variability? So maxspeed:variable=weather/traffic_volume/time_of_day or of course the aforementioned yes as a default value.
