Then our intuitions differ. Call it our "thinking" if you prefer that term. Our own government's way of splitting up the country works just fine with the OSM definitions. For me, the demarcation problem is largely solved. NWNs (of which there are two that I'm aware of) are clearly distinguished from RWNs. Otherwise, what distinguishes a NWR from a RWN is a grey area indeed. And any attempt to define what's what by fiat necessarily has a lot of arbitrariness about it. > The rule about crossing a state boundary...well, that will almost > never happen.

Re: [talk-au] admin boundaries on garmin
I have found the admin boundaries (suburbs were giving me the most grief) are really misleading for navigation too, particularly on smaller screens as Liz mentioned. I prefer to grab the ones from here osmaustralia.org as I don't have time to build my own. So when he does fix it, it will be appreciated.

Yeah, it goes from Walhalla to Canberra, about 650km. By comparison, one version of the Camino de Santiago is 800km. The long-distance European walking paths seem to range from about 3-10,000km. So the AAWT would be a shortish international walking path, or a long national one. > > But part of that track goes through wilderness areas, where track markers > aren't permitted. Should we be even mapping those sections, thereby helping > create an erosion/"localised overuse" threat? Absolutely we should. Routes like that appear on maps. For example, there's a part of the Overland Track where John Chapman publishes an alternative route around Lake St Clair. There's no track, and his map uses a different kind of line to indicate "route" rather than "track". Any route that we publish would probably have long straight line sections, so the paths that actual walkers would follow would vary significantly from that anyway, depending on local vegetation etc. > I also think that many shorter routes don't warrant a route relation, mainly > because they can be adequately represented by a single way. The growing trend is that renderers treat route relations as "more significant" than mere ways. And I'm not sure your statement is true anyway - a single bridge, set of steps or even change in surface (eg, gravel to dirt) would need the way to be split to be fully mapped. > And many short routes that do warrant a route relation certainly aren't > significant enough to warrant a "lwn" tag. Yeah, probably. How can we define "significant" though? The fact that renderers assign zoom levels to them is actually sort of a good starting point: is a route significant enough to know about when you're viewing a) a country b) a state c) a region d) a national park e) a locality within a national park f) a campsite. IMHO, the overland, the AAWT, the lara pinta etc all easily satisfy a). A trail like the Pinnacle Walk (roughly 4 hours return iirc) in the Grampians will satisfy d) but probably not c). A short interpretive walk may satisfy e) but struggle to meet d). It all depends how many other trails there are at that level, how close they are, etc. (Just thinking out loud here a bit, I'm not committed to any of this.)

Re: [talk-au] local chapter stuff
Guys, It may be good to give also an update on the whole chapters thingy on this mailing list. First: the draft agreement you've been referring to is of the table. We had a good discussion within the OSMF board about the organizational structure of the Foundation. We concluded that this agreement did not fit nicely into our thoughts of where we're heading with the Foundation. So what are we working on now. Some highlights: - LC is a separate entity and has it's own membership scheme. - LC members are not official members of the Foundation (and can therefore not vote on Foundation matters) - LC is basically the representative of OSM in it's country/region - Foundation is official publisher of the OSM database and licensee of the data - Foundation may (!) check on the books etc in order to check whether the LC is not doing anything that could hurt the name and fame of OSM or the Foundation. - LC may use the name and logo of OSM Hope this gives some clarity on the current situation with Local Chapters.

But part of that track goes through wilderness areas, where track markers aren't permitted. Should we be even mapping those sections, thereby helping create an erosion/"localised overuse" threat?

I agree that we don't have international hiking routes (IWN) in Australia. I thought it intuitive that a national route (NWN) would cross a state border and be a significantly long walk. Basically, that's the Bicentennial National Trail. Regional routes (RWN) would then be walks within a state, and be significant within that state. These would include: Bibbulmun Track (WA) Cape to Cape Track (WA) Great North Walk (NSW) Great Ocean Walk (Vic) Great South West Walk (Vic) Heysen Trail (SA) Hume & Hovell Walking Track (NSW) Larapinta Trail (NT) Overland Track (Tas) Then local routes would include shorter walks like the collection of Misty Mountains walks in northern Queensland. The OSM tagging guidelines for hiking routes aren't especially helpful, but seem to me to suggest the above scheme. "Specify the network as an international route, a national route, a regional route, or a local route." If a region is a state, then I'll agree that we have some big regions in Aus. That's balanced by our lower population, and hiking route, density compared with Europe. John H ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
