No, mapping one down the middle is all that should be done. When you drive a car across the desert it breaks up the crusty surface layer and the track is visible for years even if only one car drives that exact route once. Therefore mapping more than one track does not make sense. You are just manually creating a gpx traced of where some guy drove last year.
The question is not about where to draw the way (as has been described above) but about what _extra_ tag should be added to tell people that this road line is not a normal centerline like we normally trace, but rather an average of one of these dispersed roads. My suggestion is to use either dispersed=yes or dispersed_road=yes and maybe the =no equivalent on the other roads in the surrounding area to indicate they have been check and are not dispersed (rather than just not yet surveyed). Another possibility might be braided=yes or braided_road=yes taking the name from a "braided stream" which is a kind of waterway that is similar to these roads (multiple paths which vary over time). -AndrewBuck _______________________________________________ HOT mailing list HOT@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
