Re: [OSM-talk-be] bridge or tunnel?

2019-05-29 Thread Lionel Giard
Here is a few bullet point explaining my reasoning to decide if it is a
tunnel or not :

   - I think that most of the exceptions mentioned, are well-known as being
   a tunnel (like tunnel in Brussels). Thus it is not a problem for these.
   - If you have nothing on top, and it is a passage going under something,
   it is always a tunnel (like below a city, below a mountain, ...). if you
   don't have something directly on top (no road, no railway...), there is no
   question to me. Even if you generally have roads/railways somewhere above
   these type of tunnel (For example, you often have something on the
   mountain, but it is not "directly on top").
   - Thus, the question is only posed in case where two
   railway/highways/rivers/... (or any combination of them) crosses each
   others. Then the usual rule of thumb can be applied :


   1. if it looks like a bridge = a bridge;
   2. if it looks like a tunnel (longer than wide, structure looks like
   one, ... -> WHATEVER is your definition, it will always be subjective) then
   it is a tunnel, ...

And  we probably will always disagree on some of these interpretation. The
only case where it is really verifiable is when there is a sign telling
"bridge n°4295" like on our motorways or if the structure is named ("Viaduc
Herman Debroux", "Tunnel Montgommery", ...) or if an official database
exist with a classification.

2019-05-28 Thread Marc Gemis
additional things that can be part of the definition:
 - passages through embankments are (in general) not tunnels.
- when a road passes over another one, located in a cutting, does not
place the lower one in a tunnel (Antwerp ring road)
- when the road goes under a waterway, the road is in a tunnel

Again: exceptions will exist and they have to be seen as a rule of
thumb, not a hard definition.

2019-05-28 Thread Marc Gemis
AFAIK the tunnel=building_passage, this is not a tunnel, but using the
tunnel tag anyway. I guess the same is true for culvert. I would not
try to come up with a definition that is also applicable to those 2.

Maybe my rule of thumb could be extended somehow for the metrotunnels,
which are clearly underground, and are therefore tunnels. For the mole
pipes, you write "dug out and covered", which is another indication
that it is a tunnel.

That being said, I guess you will never find a definition that works
100% of the time, because the real world is just messy.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] bridge or tunnel?

2019-05-28 Thread Stijn Rombauts via Talk-be
 Hi,

First: the interpretations given here to 'tunnel' are much more strict than the 
wiki, which leaves much more room for interpretation. A strict interpretation 
of tunnel makes the use of tunnel=yes of tunnel=culvert for passages of rivers 
underneath a road senseless, just as tunnel=building_passage.

Second, I hope that you are aware of the consequences of your interpretations. 
Let's use the definition of Marc, which is the most elaborated: "I apply the 
rule: stand on the road, look up, which layers of material do you "see" before 
you reach the sky? Is there earth (grond/aarde) that was not placed there 
artificially, then you are in a tunnel.": Then the 'railroad tunnel' between 
Brussels North and Brussels South is NOT a tunnel. It is just a mole pipe (in 
the words of Gerard). The whole thing is dug out, built and then covered with 
streets, buildings and here there a bit of gorund.
Even a lot of the metrotunnels are made with the 'cut and cover' technique and 
are thus NO tunnels? Ecoduct Kikbeekbron over the E314 is NOT a tunnel?
Also the examples given by Marc and Tim with such a thin cover are most likely 
made 'cut and cover' and have only 'artificial' things overneath: NO 
tunnels...And what do you do with the GEN-constructions at railway 161 in 
Genval? The railway has been covered with roads and parking lots. Also no 
tunnels? 
On the other hand: ecoduct Groenendaal really looks like a bridge but has been 
mapped as a tunnel...

Lionel said : "A tunnel is generally something that was dig (removing 
earth/material) and consolidated from the inside (most often with concrete) 
like a subway tunnel if you want. It seems pretty rare to dig a big hole, make 
a tunnel and put back the earth on top !": Yet, that ís a very common 
practice...

So to me these seem to be useless definitions...

Or does the word 'artificial' means that ground level matters? The ringway 
around Antwerp (R1) is almost everywhere at level -1, below ground level. The 
cutting is here the artificial structure (using Yves' words this time). So 
where there is a road going overneath, the ringway goes through a tunnel...? 
The same for Joost's example: if you look at the aerial imagery, you can see 
clearly they had to dig out the N28 to get underneath the railway and the other 
roads: thus a tunnel...? And what about the complex traffic changers where it 
is often very hard to see what the original ground level was.

@ Yves: 'Layer' gives a relative position. Something at ground level can 
perfectly have layer=-1 or layer=1. Check the wiki. And further: a bridge with 
layer = 1 doesn't mean it is above ground level; a tunnel with layer = -1 
doesn't mean it is below ground level.

@ Tim: What came first is a useless criterion. The E313 was constructed before 
the E314, but it is definitely a bridge of the E313 above the E314. And the 
definitions of bridge or a tunnel should be so that anyone knows whether to map 
things as bridge or tunnel without having to know in which order roads, 
railways, etc. were constructed.

So can someone can come up with a useful definition?

Can I come up with a definition? I like the length/width ratio, the open 
bridge(like) structure against a confined tunnel(like) structure. And the 
fuzziness of the wiki. But one thing is very clear for me: ground level doesn't 
matter.

StijnRR

Well...

My feeling is there is no tunnel there. Even when the under-passage is quite 
long in regard with the width.

Could the railway bridge (at the 2nd link) be considered a viaduct ?

It's a road that was dug under a slightly raised train track, but it looks like 
a bridge. Or is it bridge for the road, tunnel under the train, bridge again :)

I think there is a tunnel under  the e34 between Antwerpen en Zelzate.
There used to be a level crossing which was removed and instead they
created an underground passage for it.

@joost schouppe   To me that's indeed a bridge,
as you see the same structure as on the motorway bridges : a platform
supported by pillars

A tunnel is generally something that was dig (removing earth/material) and
consolidated from the inside (most often with concrete) like a subway
tunnel if you want. It seems pretty rare to dig a big hole, make a tunnel
and put back the earth on top ! ;-)

I can't find example of tunnels that's really like "under a railway or

2019-05-28 Thread Marc Gemis
I doubt one had to dig something for the road to pass under the
railway. There is no "earth" between the road and the sky, only stuff
that humans created, like concrete, stones and asphalt. So a bridge
for me.
I apply the rule: stand on the road, look up, which layers of material
do you "see" before you reach the sky? Is there earth (grond/aarde)
that was not placed there artificially, then you are in a tunnel.
(similar to the digging rule mentioned earlier).

Hmm, how about this case:

https://play.osm.be/historischekaart.html#18/50.84125/4.03590/dhm_hill-osmroads
https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=50.8409878896054=4.035847194701205=17=CemcYfldMKwaCCdn0eK2bQ=photo=0.5005982815044207=0.34925403860156434=0

It's a road that was dug under a slightly raised train track, but it looks
like a bridge. Or is it bridge for the road, tunnel under the train, bridge
again :) ?

Re: [OSM-talk-be] bridge or tunnel?

2019-05-28 Thread ghia
I don't think that, what was first, is always relevant. Your cycleway
'tunnel' is a bridge. A tunnel has to go in depth or under a lot of
other things (not a simple crossing). 

A bridge is in general less thick then the height of the passage. 

Or the height of a tunnel is less than half the level difference.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] bridge or tunnel?

2019-05-28 Thread Lionel Giard
I agree with the above answer that except #2, all are bridge.

One other method to identify a bridge is to check the structure (either
with a "tablier"/bridge deck which goes from one support to the next, or
with arch like one of the example...). There are typical bridge structure,
while most tunnel are just a concrete passage.

I'll agree with everyone else on the given selection here.

As for how I try to decide:
Ideally, you'd have the history of 'what came first'. Whichever level this
one is at goes as the 'baselevel'.
Either a new road / railway / .. goes:
OVER it, making that a bridge
UNDER it, making it a tunnel
AT THE ORIGINAL LEVEL, making the existing road/path a bridge or tunnel
based on how that got adjusted.

That makes this a railway-bridge:
https://www.google.be/maps/@50.9501557,3.1304248,3a,60y,255.18h,91.97t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sV8dGdG1hKMYxX3JldKdTSA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656
But this, just a bit further, and at the same level as the road shown in
the previous example, a tunnel for cyclists:
https://www.google.be/maps/@50.9516067,3.1299799,3a,48.9y,281.94h,86.62t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sPooi08Nvz-feFB6XzaibnQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

Hope that makes sense, I personally feel it matches with how people tend to
label things.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] bridge or tunnel?

2019-05-27 Thread Pieter Vander Vennet
Cool collection of bridges (except #2). I too think that if its not dug,
it's not a tunnel.

I have another cool example, not from belgium though:
https://www.google.be/maps/@45.5067122,6.6792676,3a,75y,267.08h,77.06t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1stJwtCeCLHlLxMPnVB_ZYdw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=nl

This view is on a bridge (over a small valley) which acts as ski piste (in
winter), and continues through a building (which has a ski piste on top).

Re: [OSM-talk-be] bridge or tunnel?

2019-05-27 Thread GeDeOn .
Hi Stijn and all

In my opinion, a tunnel is something that was dug, in a hill or in mountain, 
under a river, ...

Otherwise I would think of a viaduct.

In that regard only your case #2 is a tunnel.

Just my 2 cents...

Re: [OSM-talk-be] bridge or tunnel?

2019-05-27 Thread Yves bxl-forever
Hello,

I would consider each situation from #3 to #9 here as a bridge.

Here’s why.  If there had never been a railway, the road would be where it is 
now, and it is perfectly flat and aligned with the houses nearby (implicitely 
level=0 and layer=0 in OSM).
On the contrary, the embankment is an artificial structure that has been built 
to raise the railway and make it fly over the road.

I tried to have a look at Infrabel’s Open Data portal, but couldn’t find a list 
of their bridges so far.  They manage about 4,800 bridges and it would make 
sense that our data match theirs.

Cheers.
Yves

I think  some passages are called a mole pipe, but that makes it not a
tunnel. 

Don't have tunnel vision: All your examples are railroad bridges. 

A tunnel has mosttimes also a depth: it lies not under, but beneath
something and/or crosses several things. 

Also, sometimes a traffic sign F8 can be found near the entrence.

Gerard

2019-05-27 Thread Karel Adams

Hoi Stijn,

Het kan zijn dat ik iets mis - het is een zware dag geweest op het werk 
:( - maar volstaat het niet om ter plekke eens te gaan kijken?


Let wel, in het kader van mijn eigen specialisme (vliegvelden in de 
ruime zin van het woord) ben ik zelf vaak genoeg aan het mappen op 
plaatsen waar ik nooit geweest ben, maar dan moet men ook beseffen dat 
men maar wat in het wilde weg aan het gokken is - niets gaat boven 
lokale waarneming! En dus kan men licht worden bijgestuurd door iemand 
die in de buurt rondhangt.


Soms verkies ik toch een "educated guess" boven helemaal niks, maar ik 
weet zeker dat velen dat omgekeerd zien.


Uw humoristische verwoordingen werden hier erg op prijs gesteld! Monkel, 
monkel :)
