[Tagging] Reversible Road tagging

2018-11-08 Thread Jack Burke
With the advent of new reversible freeways north and south of Atlanta, I think it's time we try to come up with a way to model the reversal schedule so that routers can begin to utilize them properly. Note that I am referring to roads where the entire roadway reverses, not a reversible *lane*

Actually that's not far off. Linguists speculate that American English pronunciation in the northeast is similar to that of English English 200+ years ago. So you could say that we speak the King's English. (Down with the king!) They say the same about Canadian French--what's spoken in Quebec

[Tagging] Best tagging practices for winery "tasting rooms"

2016-09-05 Thread Jack Burke
I know of several wineries that operate a tasting room facility separate from the winery itself. I'm trying to come up with the right tagging scheme to use on them. Since they aren't located at the actually winery, craft=winery seems incorrect. In the wiki, shop=winery isn't defined, although that

Tagging maxspeed is purely for a router. So are turn restrictions. As for turn:lanes meant for complex intersectionsthe examples in the wiki show very simple uses. I can't see anything in it, or the discussion page, indicating that it is only for complex intersections. Certainly there is a

[Tagging] Freeway exit tagging

2016-08-25 Thread Jack Burke
Freeway exit tagging I am totally confused. What is the proper method to use turn:lanes to tag freeway lanes approaching an exit, where the exit branches directly from an edge lane without being part of the freeway itself, but the freeway lanes are not signed with an arrow, such as this one?

Interesting. I've been tagging most large pharmacies as shop=convenience and amenity=pharmacy since I tend to think of them as convenience stores as much as pharmacies. -jack -- Typos courtesy of fancy auto spell technology On July 5, 2016 1:08:26 PM EDT, Peter Dobratz

[Tagging] Specifying maxweight, when different weight limits are signed

What's the right way to specify maxweight when the weight limit sign has different values for different vehicles? Just use the highest value shown? For example, see this bridge: http://www.mapillary.com/map/im/xCvKHzGbfqBG0sZDCVUV8A/photo --jack "weighing all my options"

I want to +1 the idea of using leisure=range. There are some dangerous sports where some people are allowed to be downfield, even if it's just the judges (shot-put, etc.). But with shooting/archery sports, even the judges don't get on the field. That does make a distinction between the types

This topic interests me greatly. In my world a gas station and a convenience store are two distinct features, so they should indeed exist as two elements also in the osm database. Also an address should be considered a feature in its own right so it should also be a distinct element.
