[Tagging] bicycle=use_sidepath applicable to bicycle lanes?

Two situtions where I have doubts on correct tagging A) In the case of a road with two cycle lanes with mandatory use (they do have the official cycle path signs - case L1a in http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Bicycle) how do I tag correctly the mandatory use on the highway: 1) by

[Tagging] Road Running Railways

Hi all, I have noticed that there is no set tag for rails that are embedded within the road. One strategy I have had is to tag the road as highway=* and add another line with railway=rail. I just wanted to reach out to the community and see if there is another way. -- Dominic Coletti President

Re: [Tagging] Road Running Railways

I'm also interested about this. Near me this only happens with public transport like the subway or lightrail and tram for example. The standard seems to be to draw duplicated overlapping ways, one's the highway the other's railway, but I'm not sure this is the way to go. Em 26/11/2015 12:51,

Re: [Tagging] Road Running Railways

In my region I often have seen that railways (tram) are drawn as separate lines for both directions while roads are just drawn as one line in the middle. Trams are mostly running on the street if you have more than one car lane. So even if both street directions are separated and drawn as oneway

Re: [Tagging] bicycle=use_sidepath applicable to bicycle lanes?

Hallo Volker, there is not accepted method to denote that a way is mandatory to use by bicyclists, however there are some proposals ([1],[2]) for that. It’s only possible to tell a cyclist to stay off a carriage way by tagging “bicycle=use_sidepath” on the central osm-way. There a few

Re: [Tagging] bicycle=use_sidepath applicable to bicycle lanes?

Thanks for the two fast replies. n answer to my first question you both suggest to map a bicycle lane (which is separated from the main carriageway only by a white painted line) as a separate way. To me this seems not correct. We apply always the rule to map as separate ways only ways that are

[Tagging] boundary relations and the subarea property

I just noticed that a lot of boundary relations have the lower ranking parts included as members with the "subarea" role. This role is documented here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:boundary But I wonder how it got on this definition page. Was this discussed anywhere? I don't think

Re: [Tagging] boundary relations and the subarea property

It's an handy and intuitive way of organizing boundaries in a neat hierarchy visible from the database itself. Take for example this boundary [1]. If the subarea role was deprecated then it would be a lot harder of finding out which are its father, grandfather, etc. relations, which would make

Re: [Tagging] boundary relations and the subarea property

I use the subarea member because it makes cross-checking easy. Have all the lower-level boundaries in my higher-level admin area been added to OSM? Unfortunately the various admin levels do not always form a strict hierarchy. A small area at (lets say) admin_level=10 might be enclosed

Re: [Tagging] bicycle=use_sidepath applicable to bicycle lanes?

Use_sidepath was invented to solve the *routing* problem of compulsory *separate* cycle paths. Usage of use_sidepath together with highway=*+cycleway=* was hotly discussed after the proposal got accepted.[1] The question is: Are there somewhere on this world non-compulsory cycle lanes
