Hi Vidas!

I'm not an artist as well.

Anyway, I've took your icon as an inspiration (your icon looked blurred 
when scaled down to 16*16 pixels) and added a similar one to the JOSM 
display.

You can add this to the wiki as a recommendation if you want. Of course,
this would require that barrier=turnstile was properly documented in the
first place.

Apparently, it still isn't. (It's mentioned on Key:barrier, but is not
part of the table and doesn't have an own page either.) Does anyone
object to adding it?

when talking about how to tag a feature I wouldn't make too many
assumptions on GPS-accuracy and other practical issues. This is about
how to represent the situation in an adequate manner. Why not use the
best solution, if you are all free (there is no in-use tags for this
until now)? Actually I don't want a tag that works "in most
situations", but one that works best at least in "all currently
imaginable situations".

Therefore I would explicitly recommend that the way starts at the
turn-stile following the direction of passing through it, as you will
never turn back once passed, while you might always turn back before
you pass it.

I wouldn't, I originally thought about adding something along the lines
of "of course, that way shouldn't be kilometres long", but thought it
was obvious anyway...

In most situations reality will provide a way section with a length of a
few meters whose only purpose is to go through the stile, so there will
be a "natural" way to use for this. Otherwise, people will probably be
intelligent enough to just split it.

I don't think that this "trapping" situation is relevant in realistic
cases (i.e. a few metres of way tagged like that) - it will even be

I see this differently as the restriction does not apply to the whole
footway but just to the part crossing the style. If the footway is
some kilometres in length, why would you want to map it as oneway for
all this part? IMHO you have to split the way after ~50cm after the
stile (width of the stile) and not to start before your inside the
stile (otherwise you will get "trapped" inside a normal footway (for
routers) not beeing able to return if e.g. the stile is closed.

This can be applied to any way as long as that way needs to be used when
passing the stile. The stile should be a node on that way, but whether
it is the first/last node or any node inbetween doesn't matter at all.

This is a special case useful *only* for this situation - which is an
unnecessary burden for implementation of routing applications. It's
preferable to use something that can be used to handle all sorts of
different situations (and therefore needs to be implemented anyway).

You can do something like stile_direction or a relation if you expect it
to be used in rendering, but I'd definitely recommend to also use a tag
like the one I suggested on the way to allow a more generic evaluation
for routing/navigation.

does this imply to split the way on the stile? Do you split it on
either side? What about splitting it directly on the stile. By this
you could just tag one snip of the way towards the side you are
allowed to go as "stile_direction=yes" or something similar, without
being dependant on the direction of way. Similarly a relation could be
imagined (like turn_restriction).

I tend to disagree - the purpose, design and access aspects of a turnstile are 
normally very different from those of a stile. I think there is a good case for 
barrier=turnstile - even, if like many other barrier tags, it is not yet 
rendered. I do not regard a turnstile as a subtype of 'stile'.

"Turnstiles were originally used, like other forms of stile, to allow human 
beings to pass whilst keeping sheep or other livestock penned in."

So barrier=stile is still the most correct barrier tag, however if you want to 
save people from being confused you subtype, eg stile:type=turnstile

But is you use barrier=stile doesn't that imply that a pedestrian can (and

that you cannot climb over and access is usually (but perhaps not always)

barrier=stile?



The definition of that tag on the wiki is exactly what I imagined a "stile"
to be, but that's not quite what he's describing. He's talking about a
turnstile (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turnstile). I suppose barrier=stile
could apply, but if that's the case the wiki should be updated to show that
variant.

They are also common barriers, at least in my area. Would you just add
them to the barrier page in the wiki or is there a lengthy proposal
process needed?

Do we really need to file bugs on all types of stiles? or would it be better to 
list it as barrier=stile and subtype?

Exactly, consistency is the point of having things render, but do we really 
want/need 50 types of stiles being rendered?

Remember that in OSM you can tag as you like. It is perfectly easy to  
add extra tags, and perfectly valid. A tag that is not on Map Features  
is perfectly valid, as that page should only contain the n most common  
and important tags.

"Turnstiles were originally used, like other forms of stile, to allow human 
beings to pass whilst keeping sheep or other livestock penned in."

So barrier=stile is still the most correct barrier tag, however if you want to 
save people from being confused you subtype, eg stile:type=turnstile

there is no "official" turnstile tag with OSM, stile is the same thing.

Thanks. changed my gates to turnstile.

barrier=stile?

The definition of that tag on the wiki is exactly what I imagined a  
"stile" to be, but that's not quite what he's describing. He's  
talking about a turnstile (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turnstile).  
I suppose barrier=stile could apply, but if that's the case the wiki  
should be updated to show that variant.

Sounds like a turnstile. 
It's not yet in the list of barriers, but the list can be extended.

Hi,
  
Is there a park barrier like this:
Like its made of metal, circular in shape, two perpendicular diagonals
separator, rotates and prevents any sort of vehicles including cycles
to be brought in.
Only one person can enter at a time.
  
I checked the http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Barrier
but could not locate it.
