[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - traffic signals set

2015-03-14 Thread Lukas Sommer
Hello. In the discussion about the proposal about type=traffic_signals_group it was suggested to use the term “set” instead of “group”. So I’ve adapted the wiki page of the proposal and I’ve moved it to http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/traffic_signals_set -- Lukas Sommer

Okay. I’ve made some clarifications to the proposal (avoid confusion with coordination of traffic signals along a length of road …). The remaining problem is the tag value “type=traffic_signals_group”. I agree that “group” is not the best choise. We could maybe switch to

Hi, This could be confused with the coordination of traffic signals along a length of road or even a district wide coordination of traffic light signals. I think it needs some words that restrict it to a single intersection? And possibly some thought to where a length of road (many

Looks like this has already been discussed .. in 2008 to 2011. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Proposed_features/Set_of_Traffic_Signals No outcome for that .. Past discussion looks to have pointed to a relation ... the relation contains each node of traffic_light and can have a name=

The practical use is that routing algorithms can calculate the travel time more accurate if the durations are known. By specifying the via ways a routing algorithm knows which signals can be ignored. Simulations can be done more precisely. To reply to the other comments: I am aware of the

Additional to below I want to mention that on a micromapping style a traffic_signal is placed one the pedistrian crossing or the stop_line. I even came across ones one the stop_line and an addition highway=crossing on the pedestrian crossing. I am tagging direction=* for the direcion it faces.
